same. i could give two fucks about the kid right now tbh. He's a Wolfsburg player. Let him fucking play and let the Bundesliga have their little bullshit victory vs the Evil Rich Premiership.

It just makes me salivate to get a German club in the CL group and fucking thrash them into oblivion. Cunts.

allegedly, Milan want to take the rock n rolla out of Mario, which i feel is foolish and a dispiriting move to the man....they've inserted some clause in his loan agreement, according to what i paste below from some italian paper:

Code: Select all
Balotelli will have his Twitter, Facebook and Instagram posts closely monitored and he will be banned from extravagant hairstyles and clothing; from smoking; visiting night clubs; and must turn up on time from training.

Monaco just loaned Coentrao from Madrid so i guess Kurzawa is off

Apart from the hairstyles and clothing, is that not what you would expect anyway from a footballer?

When will they learn though? You don't try and contain the Mario! You let him light fireworks in his bathroom and the next day score 2 in the Derby as you destroy Fergiscum on his own turf!

It would be good to screw Bayern over this.

If Bayern agree a fee to take him next season. It will be high and we've pushed his value up. Even though he clearly isn't worth it.

Puts pressure on the player now to perform all the time.

No hiding place now for De Bruyne this season.

i wouldn't really agree that he isn't worth whatever fee he commands. I think that's wide of the mark. He could underwhelm, but i think he's as capable as James, or Suarez in impacting a team.

This transfer debacle hasn't just been boring, it's completely unprofessional. And once again it's not our fault, but we're the ones who will have our names dragged through the dirt over the handling / pursuit. I agree that he is worth it, and would be a huge addition to our club. Is he "necessary?" In a sense no, we've won the league without him an a weaker team that we have now ... but he is necessary as a statement of intent and solidifying the future and our continued success going forward.

To Zuri's point, I agree, I'd love to screw over Bayern in this, but I can't see them paying a ridiculous fee. They'll have a lower fee and allow him to remain at Wolfsburg for another year. Our bid really doesn't impact that, and I think that for whatever rivalry they have, The bundesliga is a bit of an old boys club and they'll much prefer doing business with Bayern than us. Now the reported ridiculous PSG offer could impact Bayerns interest / result ... but i'm not sure it isn't just being laughed at for how ridiculous it is.

Nostrodamus here as already predicted what will happen Saturday. The headache will be finally over early tomorrow. He will start. Jesus will have a niggle in training Friday and he will score the opener on 3 minutes. The game will end 4 - 0 and Sergio will perform open heart surgery in the centre circle on a ball boy while the game plays on around him.

Oh...... Ginger Kev will also score the third and fourth goal. The second will bounce in off Kompany's head from within our own half.

Surely you could have given us all of the above using a YouTube video?

This is highly unprofessional for an ITK God.

OD I did once ask Slim how to put up You Tube videos, pictures and the like but his answer was not in Yorkshire. I did not understand.

Well The Guardian reported we agreed to a fee of 54m + 4m in add ons, he's then expected to fly to England for a medical Thursday and will be announced as a City player on Friday.

Deal done according to German Sky but they are notorious for not having a clue. They are as respected for accurate transfer reporting as the Sun is. The clubs have not even agreed a fee so he won't be signing this side of the weekend, if at all.
