As he said, "he can only try and join the dots". So I can't see how super sleuth Rick Der Spiegel can jump to any assumptions. On another note. We all know FFP was introduced from pressure of the big boys to protect their seats at the top table but what I don't understand is, why would anybody condemn owners who put money into a club and yet don't load it with debt but think it's fine for an owner to rob money from a club and yet still keep that club owing hundreds of millions of pounds. I know which owners I would prefer but it also shows why FFP is a freakin joke. Look at Barca. Almost bankrupt and having to renegotiate players contracted salaries and yet they don't breach FFP!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You might be right but it's two different things. One is (arguably) bad for one club, whereas it looks like you might have been breaking rules which are designed to protect the game as a whole.

Giant of a club. 100% agree Owl ... Even from a neutral's perspective. If Grealish goes to City he will become just another cog in an extremely well oiled machine. Same with Mahrez... He has done well there but have we ever enjoyed his individual brilliance as much as we did for Leciester? For City it's a great signing. For neutrals (and rivals) not so much. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jellydog Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 So it's Grealish then. I've always thought that lad had one screw not completely tamped in, but hoping for the best. So City are still aching to pony up well over $100M for Kane? Or do we think the Kane deal looks slightly less likely now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kadilo, genuinely interested to hear your logic here. They've just lost Aguero but you (and maybe Pep) think Grealish is no 1 priority...... Why? Sterling obviously not past it.

If it's all above board then why not. Got to be ruthless in the transfer market and that what Liverpool failed to do after they won the title IMO 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grealish goes down if someone farts out of tune in his vicinity. It's not the going down but the pathetic rolling around and leg clutching that gets my goat.
