City transfer thread

We don't need a striker now, we need a striker once one leaves. If we spend big on one now and Jelavic and Hernandez both stay, we are heavy on strikers lacking the funds to strengthen more pressing areas.

Huddlestone, Diame and Dawson have a fair chance of being bought up, we should go out and buy replacements for them before they go too.

 

So with strikers we should only buy when one leaves
but with defenders and midfield we should buy before any leave?

 

We get it, you aren't bothered, you've been saying it since the deal first started to go tits.

I think people are just sick of seeing history repeat itself.

 

I was being sarcastic.

You don't go out and spend money to fix something that might never happen.

I take it everyone has a spare car on the drive in case one breaks down? Or in case someone knocks on the door with an offer you can't refuse?

 

Cue for one of the Bad Boys to tell you you're rubbish at quoting. If you're on something other than a PC, it's an easy slip of the fingers to do what you did.

 

I do as I have 3...and a holiday home

 

The issue is with the way the transfer window works I can see 2 leaving in the last hour or so of the window leaving us with very little time to get in our preferred options. It's always the way the window works. We don't seem to learn from our previous experiences.

 

Why would you need a spare car in case one breaks down when you can hire a car of any quality if needed?
You can certainly use the loan market but he quality is more limited.

 

The Messi rumour must have some legs then.

 

I do Bob, it's an Audi TT Roadster, and it's FOR SALE if anyone's interested, only 14,000 miles and £7k will buy it, a LOT cheaper then Andre Gray.

 

Agreed, you end up with a player with no experience or a player that can't get into somebody else's starting 11.

 

Are you also a member of a Snooker club?

 

People have more than one of the above because they are using them for different purposes. I know people who have holiday homes but unless they are very rich they may only use them for a couple of months a year. I would rather stay in a hotel.

 

What's your scoring record in it?

 

You're ****ing muppet.

 

Far too small for that Ben, I have a Passat estate for those purposes.

 

Tell Steve Bruce.
Don't forget to tell him how many goals it scored last season though.

 

So what happens if we sign Gray and no one wants Jela or Abel? Do we keep a £17m/£50kish per week strike force on the bench?

 

I dont get it.. When Bristol were close to signing Gray, it was reported EVERYWHERE.. now he's apparently close to signing for Burnley and there's hardly any info out there.. whats going on?

 

If neither of them are buying my TT I couldn't give a **** Bob, the bastards.
