Well it's alot cheaper than the £120m the scum are paying, a well calculated risk. Can you imagine if Sancho flops?

But at £100m or thereabouts that fee will cause pressure for any player, let alone a 20 year old.

He will be a success I'm sure. But it's all relative and with the rags needling to address issues in other areas as well, if they spend most of their budget on one player than that player really has to shine and deliver

No doubt his ability, but he is a bling boy, him and Pogba in that dressing room is gonna be toxic.

Not saying he's not talented, if for whatever reason he does flop, it's an expensive one. Not sure Gullum will bring the best out of him. Had he gone to the Vermins I'd be worried.

He could do with a few more tattoos in my honest opinion, but we’ll see.

A huge tat of himself on his back? Or will he go for the Cillian Murphy?

This lad is a real unknown for me (don’t know anything about him). Highly rated but who knows how that will pan out.

Welcome Ferran and best of luck in your City career

Not of himself, but I’d like two sleeves and a couple of neck tattoos personally.

Hate to say it but I agree.

£108 is even less than I think the fee would be if there was no pandemic.

Right now? No.

Registration was due 1 February.

Just like Sane can't play for Bayern.

Unless I’m reading quotes that have been taken out of context, he sounds like a snide twat. Spat his dummy out because they wouldn’t make him captain?

Taken out of context, it's best to read the whole story then patagraphs to suit the scum media narrative, fucking media love to stir shit especially when it comes to city. I bet you a grand no mention of Sancho spitting his dummy out when he joins the rags. He spat his dummy with us and Dortmund, whether justified or not. Apparently the club andv ex captain treated him shit (Torres)

Never heard of him either except for his presence on best under-21 players lists.

Yeah, the quotes dont sound too good.

He wanted 2/3:
1. Owner to be involved in his contract negotiations to prove his importance to the club
2. Be captain
3. Be one of the highest paid players

Quitting because youre not made captain proves youre not captain material

Haven't we spent the last couple of season's ironing that flaw out of Razzers game?

Jokes aside, I really do hate it, the main reason I despise Saha and others who actively make it a part of their game when they are talented enough to not do it.

Rant over, as you were LOL
