    It might not make sense to many, but if Man City want him, he wants to go and they're offering say 80 million? The cold hard reality will kick in on a player sale somewhere down the line gents.

    I'll repeat that I'd not be happy with it, but if it happens I wouldn't be against it 'if' they plug 2 or 3 other holes in the side, because that does actually make some sense.

    Mate you can say whatever you want, of course you can.

    Don't make a comment about other people assuming stuff and then come out with sentences like "He's going to Man City whether you like the idea or not more than likely and probably for close to 80 million pounds." and expect not to be balled out on it though.

    I could see him going but just don't think he will as I think the figure we'll quote will be beyond what they'll want to pay. If Liverpool get Kerkez and Frimpong for less than City buy a single full back then it really highlights the issue.

    More than likely and probably are the get out cards there mate <diva>

    The entire assumption thing was based on the mass assumption that Mitchell was an awful guy, and I wasn't prepared to uphold that assumption.

    People do assume stuff that's why I said it. If I'd said I never assume things and everyone else does I'd understand this pursuit. Petty stuff, but slightly irritating given I was actually trying to be a good guy:emoticon-0148-yes:

    Anyway I'm not saying I want Livramento to be sold, but if he was sold and the bought 2 or 3 players I'd not be against it, that's what I'm saying and 1 out 3 in surely does actually make some sense.... I hope you're all right, but I'm just saying what I think on the potential sale.

    I actually love Livramento he's a top player.

    I never did at the time, but I'd like to now take the opportunity to Today question the colour scheme of Kevins attire.

    City spent £180m in January, they're gonna have to reign it in this summer.

    But Tino is too key to lose on the eve of re rentering the CL, it would be like selling Tonali. Them buying from us doesn't really happen anyway, the only player they have taken from us in the last 25 years is Shay Given, who was a knacker for them anyway.

    I really don't want Livramento to go anywhere, but selling Tonali would be a lot worse.

    I think it's fairly clear that Man City know they're going to win APT 2 and the 115 charges case to a strong degree of security.

    If we sell a player they'll be able to buy a few more on top of the 4 planned, so it's not the huge issue people would initially think.

    It would've been common sense. Probably a higher ceiling than Elanga, younger, more skillful, one sixth of the price. No PL experience though, so... Lol

    People bang on about this lad in the same way they did about Freddy Adu

    He was only the player Kennedy Bakircioglu could have been!

    Porto is a great move for him. Tear up their league then get a move to a top side

    I'm beginning to wonder if money was available the last 3 windows, but we just failed to sign anyone. The same could happen again if that was the case.

    Yeah, we sold Minteh and Anderson, and spent £20m on a keeper Howe clearly doesn't rate, just for the giggles.
