Such a weird corner of the internet this place sometimes. Why not? He has pretty much just whinged for the last 5 years, great player but a dick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why crocodile tears? Been there 21 years, since he was 14, do you not think that he is genuine when he says he loves the city and the club and no doubt some of the players like pique who he has played with for 13 years now Or just because of money everything has to be fake? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BleedClaretAndBlue Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 Donnaruma, Ramos, Hakimi, Wijnaldum, Messi. 3/10 window in my book Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyblade Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 As long as it means City don't win the CL, I'm all for it (I know PSG are hardly better). Would have loved to see him do a Maradona/Napoli and cement his legacy, but that was never going to happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep. I have a waxy, pea sized, heart and never believe anything a footballer says again. He could have played for free if he really wanted to.

Genie Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 €35m x2 plus reported €25m signing fee. Converted to pounds that’s about £80m all in for possibly the greatest player of all time for 2 years. They’ll make a ton of money from shirts, sponsors, tickets, merchandise etc etc. Dare I say that’s good value? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's always black and white with footballers because they make loads of money. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
