Why are they so precious about their "ratings" over there? Why even have them if they get stroppy if you use them?One poster on the forum where you must obey the rules has just questioned something "Trix" has said about Kane.
A&C in like flint.
A&C
This again?
We had a lot of this in the New Manager thread and I had to get a bit tasty with the banstick. Having checked, he's been at it more than once so we can do without him or his trolling.
Once again, if anyone else wants to get clever with the ratings, you go ahead, do what you have to do. And we'll do likewise.
As there have been reports about it. It's a discussion of hypotheticals. I can see why that would be over your head though.
Yes, if today would be deadline day. But it's not, is it?Which they are a long way off offering..... So by your metric Kane will stay.

Yep ok that's fair enough if that's your view on how we would use BS - I guess you're saying that part exchange is only inferior because it gives us a very limited pool from which to choose players. But say it was just Laporte and cash - assuming it was the right amount of cash - then surely you'd be keen on that wouldn't you? Given that he's exactly what we need. Say Laporte plus £130m cash, would you accept that? I probably would.That makes the assumption that these players being offered are ones we'd actively be seeking in isolation of any Kane deal.
I've already said, I don't see that SIlva would otherwise be on our radar..... I'm not convinced we're gonna play with a #10/CAM and I'd rather a more dynamic Son-like player on the right of a front 3; not some auxilery playmaker..... For the equivalent of 60m we could buy someone exact to our requirements.... Rather than say "ah, well he's decent; that'll do a job".
(Btw, I like BS as a player, so that's not the issue.)
100%. He'd be a starter for me.BILD are not that accurate but I definitely would take Denis Zakaria as an upgrade on Sissoko.
Because most of their mods are cunts and don't want anyone derailing their fictitious ITK gravy train.Why are they so precious about their "ratings" over there? Why even have them if they get stroppy if you use them?

All ultimately pointless I know because none of this is actually going to happen... lol![]()

I think not. Ferguson sorted out Cantona who was far more of a rebel than Gascoigne. Gascoigne was just daft.Gazza is as thick as pig shit and would have been kicked out of United within a few years once Fergie realised he was unmanageable
That'd be bordering on pulling their pants down, an astounding deal for us. Laporte and Silva are top quality players.Bernardo Silva, Laporte, and £100m and I’d take City’s phone call.
