Man City ready to offer Raheem Sterling AND Gabriel Jesus to Spurs to seal stunning Harry Kane transfer

[Nick]

Nope!

 

[Romario]

Hypothetically speaking as it looks like City want to do away with sterling, where would he go?

Roma ??, maybe José could find room.

 

[stov]

Laporte, cancelo, bernardo silva and 100m and you have a deal.

 

[cider spurs]

Apologies. Already posted elsewhere, but more apt in here...

I know nigh on impossible, but as opposed to attack in the shape of Sterling and Jesus, I'd Kevin Keegan love it if we asked for Dias and Cancelo and took care of the defence.

Let's not feck about here, you want our talisman, one of the best in the world, surplus their end shouldn't be cutting it.

We've got to hurt them a bit also, get them to give up highly thought of assets. Let's really test how serious they are, no pants down, bent over required here from our end.

Attack, Attack, Attack.

 

[Gassin's finest]

Fook off.

For the record I think Sterling is a fantastic player, one of the best top 5 players in the league.

I hope Kane stays but most importantly wants to stay and Levy invests substantially into the starting 11.

That's all fine, but you do realise that current FWA Premier League Player of the Year, Ruben Dias, has to also agree to leave the best team in the league for Spurs, right? Why do you think he'd do that? In fact none of them would UNLESS they're told they are surplus to requirements there. And even then we'd have to probably break our wage structure to sign their squad players.

Yep. Hence the "nigh on impossible" at the start of the post.

Of course it's not going to happen, but if they're offering x,y or z player who is surplus, play them at their game and tell them, you want our best, well, hows about we want a one or two of your more important players.

I know where we are in the food chain, doesn't mean we have to sack it up every time, nor make it easy.

Yeah but it's just a pointless negotiation tactic then. Just ask for more money or say no. You can't negotiate with players who don't want to leave them.

Agreed.

But we don't just have to bend over when a player still has a lengthy contract to run.

Anyways, for fear of going round in circles, I did state, little to no chance of it happening. I just wish we'd take a harder stance sometimes, especially when offered supposed swaps.

I'll give Levy credit, he gets top dollar for our top players on contracts over a year, the downside is the mediocre quality that the funds all too often get wasted on.

Bale springs to mind. Eriksen aside, hand on heart can you honestly say that money was reinvested well.

This is what concerns me with this Kane potential sale.

 

[PLTuck]

I'm willing to offer up my 2 sisters in return for Drew Barrymore.


Oh, is that not how this works?

I'll pass thanks Daniel.

Yeah, you say that now.

 

[mumfordspur]

Until I read it in The Express I wont believe it

 

[Gareth88]

Nah

 

[whitesocks]

Everyone has a budget, even Man City.

OK fair enough.
Monsour is worth $22 bil
£250m to £300m would probably be enough to buy kane and he wouldn't miss it.
But if he wants to make a statement here, I think he should offer £1bil. The whole world would know his name.
And he wouldn't miss that either. That would be my financial advice to him.**
Not even Levy would try to haggle.

** I'm here all week for advice on any other financial problems.

Great, that's not realistic though.

Joe Lewis is worth £4b, he could decide to put his money into Spurs and we'd subsequently buy loads of stars whilst doubling Kane's wage...that's not realistic though just like it isn't realistic to expect City just to spend stupid amounts on Kane.

All businesses operate on realistic budgets not fan idealogical fantasies.

 

[theShiznit]

To me this makes total sense.
We'd be swapping one world class player that clearly doesn't want to be here for


Two players that clearly don't want to be here.

Don't rate Sterling in the slightest TBF, Jesus could become a decent player though, not that it's gonna happen.

 

[Spurslove]

I wouldn't even call Sterling elite. Always thought he's overrated.

Also, a diving cheating little scrote.
