which, in turns, continue to make a fool of THE CHAIRMAN's business reputation.

as many advised posters have noted in both preseason match threads, what shown by Tosin, Maffeo and Angelino, and I'd add by today Denayer's performance, granted the manager's reputation at nurturing freshmen, raise huge question marks on the need to waste a factory of money on yet another prospect who is gonna add nothing of note to the potential of a top club aiming to the very top.
MCFC are CL semifinalist, among the richest of riches, already filled with some world class players and now managed by the very best: who the hell wont will to join??? still...

You're descending into lunacy again.

I'm loving our transfers so far this year. Get the best 19-23 year olds and sprinkle in 1 or 2 veterans who fit our system perfectly. Plus snatch up Brasil's best young talent low key under the radar. Gabriel Jesus looks out of this world for a 19 year old. On Neymar's level, no exaggeration.

So sit back and crack open a beer (or light your Italian crack pipe) and get ready to enjoy the next few years.

You know, Big, much on the contrary to "iwasthere2012" [although Im everyday more convinced he's someone backup taking the piss on me] You are a bright mind who had my respect when we often found in agreement, as well as has now, when You seems constantly aiming to throw s***e at me. Think it's mostly down to offseason boredoom.

But, tell me, why should be arsed to take seriously the above assumption of lunacy.
anyhow, if interested, You can have your fair share of headache with my last 2 posts above.
time for bed now.

p.s.: I'm oldstylish so, apart for some doobies at the proper age, I can only range from beer to malts,
But I wont need it to enjoy the next few years, so please, please, dont turn into the next version of reptile Ted from the ending of the Mancini era.

Also where are you and when can I move over?

£10 million is very good for Williams. We paid £42 mill for Mongo!

Surely that means they're getting a replacement in for Stones. Hopefully we haven't been held to ransom like was being suggested.

Is Williams in is last year or something? I don't understand why Swansea would sell him for so cheap yet we paid how much for Bony?!

Two years.

We don't half get a dry bumming when negotiating for these players!
