Who the fuck is Rodri

When was our last marquee signing btw? Aguero?

Think he's the fella off the Paddy power adverts

[PeterParker]

I hope this is us. No idea if he is any good or not, but it will be a huge FUCK YOU to UEFA and FFP.

Griezzman linked this evening for 120. Not for me at all.

Not a prayer we are in for that prima-dona. Massive ego & the wrong age. Undoubted talent but would unsettle the dressing room. Imagine him & Mendy - fuck that

More mud-slinging, imho. Gives rags fans another excuse to moan about us "inflating transfer prices"!

The real R. Giggs would be a great signing to wind rags up, given how much he now hates his brother. Perhaps he could work in our publicity department.

Real signed Luka Jovic from Frankfurt for 60M. Add that to Militao and theyve already spent over 100M and Hazard hasnt even been announced yet.

No way. No thanks.
Actually prefer it if we signed Johnny Evans.

[PeterParker]

Rodri just scored ~a Mahrez~.

He looks a lot like Fernie in his movement.

[Saul Goodman]

Good ol Wilf Bony has been cut by Swansea. What a City legend

Leg end

Sign him up

I keep hearing about this potential transfer ban. Anybody warrant a guess when we might actually find out if there will or will not be one? Or is that at UEFAs leisure and we will hear the day before the window opens.

It’s been awfully quiet recently. Get ready for or to start gathering pace again before our final game on Sunday!

All the news has been around Chelsea taking UEFA to CAS over their ban. I wonder if they are waiting for that to play out first before giving us ours. Even if they do give us one, we will appeal and it will delay it one window.

It's FIFA that hands out transfer bans as far as I understand, not UEFA, although I hear some speculate UEFA would give us one instead of a CL ban, but can they even do that?

With Barca as the favorites for Griezmann and them having splashed on De Jong already I'm getting cautiously optimistic that we might pip them to De Ligt. Nico appears to be leaving and Kompany needs replacing; that leaves Laporte & Stones plus Garcia.

I guess that Barca could sell the underwhelming Coutinho and fund the De Ligt deal....or they could use it to help cancel out of the outlay on Griezmann

I'm most worried that Liverpool will get De Ligt. I think it's a real possibility.

Not sure how Barca can afford all of these players in one window when I hear they are funding their wages from loans, allegedly.

He's a top player and what he offers he'd be a perfect fit as he can also play as a striker.

I think only happens if we are selling Leroy. The fee won't be as much of an issue then.

Expect them to struggle to sell Bale as well.

More likely a loan, and they'll have to pay a good portion of his wages, especially if Spurs wind up with him.

Surely this must be the year when Bale finally joins the rags?

[Mase]

Unsure why he's talking about first team football now. He literally said "it's my last big contract"....

Stinks of Milner this.

[littlebig]

Keeping Gundogan will be important, he’s come into his own in our team. Sign him up

Hes gotta go. Zidane said he wouldnt have played Bale if he had a 4th sub.
