I'm sure poor ol Jason will soon be on your list.

I actually give CB,s time to settle in , I gave Lescott and Kompany plenty of time before I lost it.....and I was right about both of them , also Dunne got it in the end as he became a liability.

Name me one fuckign time, over the last 10 years, I have given shit to any other CB we have had and show me the fuckign proof!?.

In all fairness, that's a nice, barbed rejoinder.

'One liners' are always the most pointed (if you'll pardon the pun).

The above examples copped it every week.

Name one.

Jason Denayer's agent has told FootMercato they negotiating a new deal and Denayer could be in the 1st team next season. Lyon loan unlikely.

Is that your guess or has that been stated and verified? I'd like to think that he is better advised than that.

Well if he is the real deal, he won't be treated like Boyata. I guess the fact he's already ahead of Boyata in the Belgium teams tells us something?

His agent is quoted as saying he wants first team football & that City have intimated that he will get it.

But Jason himself in a fairly recent interview acknowledged that it's a big jump from Celtic to the Prem, & appeared to understand the realities of the situation, so I expect he is asking for the opportunity to be involved, not some kind of guarantee of starting games.

Thanks Ted for clarification, I read the "wouldn't sign unless" as being a bit ahead of himself, that doesn't appear to be the case having read that. I was about to go off the guy before I'd even had chance to really see what he's about lol

They report that Denayer would only be on about £7,000 a week and that City are about to triple it to around £20,000 or so to keep him. Great money for a 19 year old, but I somehow expected him to be on more than £7k especially the season he's just had.
Signing him for £20K a week sounds a pretty good deal.....for City.

There was a time not too long ago when £20k/week was what we paid for seasoned 1st teamers. Other clubs around the league are still paying these amounts. I remember we had to break our wage structure to offer Anelka £40k/week which was well above our ceiling for any player at the time.

Denayer at this point has proved nothing about himself and until he does it in a City 1st team, as far as I'm concerned £20k/week is a ton of money for a kid who has yet to play a minute for this club. That being said, I think he has a great shot of forcing his way into the side, MDM's legs are already going and Mangala and Kompany have hardly been playing well enough to have their names in permanent marker on the teamsheet.

And Goal.com is pretty reliable but that's probably only because the bar is set so low by everyone else.

He would argue he's proved himself at international level and in Europe during what he could claim to be a breakthrough season though, I think he needs an acknowledgement from us that we've seen him take the chances given to him. Hopefully it will be a performance related contract to keep him hungry.
