Neither pawn nor unwitting imo.

Most likely true yes, but there is a world where they’ve got no intention of signing him & are using Stevie to add legitimacy to the destabilising drive.

Appreciate it’s far fetched but football is murky as **** and getting more bizarre by the month.

[fabinho]

Well you are certainly doing your bit to help with that then

I'm only going there for a fresh challenge and new culture. It also means that when I retire at the ripe old age of 35, I'll be in a position to have 200 Ferraris and not just the 12.

I dont think it is tin foil hat times. Considering the lengths City owners have gone to, ****ing with our players seems to be fairly low key.

You’d think they would choose to unsettle the better ones.

Where’s Craig?

I see he's getting slated from the LBGT community

How long before the ginger community finds something to stick the boot into him?

Was only a matter of time, it's a situation he has created himself. Quite the pickle.

Heyyyyy I have a ginger beard

So your "wife" is Welsh and ginger?

Bet Xabi Alonso never took this kind of abuse

Comparing yourself to one of the legends of our Club poor deluded *******

And now a 50m bid from Al-Hilal for Diaz apparently

Tin hats at the ready!

This could be a problem. And one that only we seem to be dealing with this year - maybe due to lack of CL.

Offer **** all for a player (in this case £50m less than he's worth) while offering 500k tax free in wages.

A comparative offer to look at is Telles of United £4m (he's not great to be fair, but should be more than that - united paid 3x that). Yet he's earning £7m a season with a 25% less tax outlay.
