That’s good value and could be excellent value. The problem with Dzeko is you don’t know which Dzeko you’re getting.

Chelsea should pay that 90k a week. He is worth it.
A bit of a Dzeko and Hyde character?
Bravo ^
That's exactly what I mean though he's been above world class standard for about 11 years now and he has one season where he dosent score 50 and all of a sudden he's past it
That´s usually how father time works. You are great, until you are not anymore.
Plenty of teams would take a chance on Ronaldo. It´s the combination of the transfer fee, his wage demands and his age that makes a transfer virtually impossible.
Not as much as I thought it would be TBH
I've seen reports of €22m rather than £22m so it might be even less.
Pellegri to Monaco is an absolute classic Monaco transfer. Intriguing to see how he’ll do there.
It's a family business!
What?! He is Norwegian, and not very good at all, even for Norwegian standards (that means shite).
Dual nationality by the look of Wikipedia.
Wouldn't be surprised if he would be then loaned back and somehow City got loan fee to legalize as sort of income, or fabricated income from USA market.
Plays for the US. Gonna be the same thing as Aaron Mooy.
Another Aaron Mooy type deal but even dodgier.
How are they allowed to do this? It is obvious that Manchester City would not sign him under normal circumstances. Loaned onto Girona? If back to New York City. His statement will sound a bit silly if he then stays there.
No rules against it so while there aren't, they'll continue to fiddle the books with these kind of deals.
Do they care about the player? It's not like this guy is a upcoming great player. He's probably happy to get paid and move along in this scheme, so City can legalize money income.
It is like money laundering with humans. So they are basically taking the piss?
You bet, but thing is the rules have too many holes so we can't use the term in this case, as it looks pretty legal.
Bet Aymeric Laporte won't ever be meeting this guy.
Which could be why they are going to try again with FFP? You would hope they will close a lot of loopholes.
What, bald ?
No Kristoff, the weird thing about this is the guy says City are a historic brand.
Who is this Kristof Terreur? Hate his style of tweeting. Put in a report then his opinion which who cares.
Nike didn't announce Coutinho did they? Leak and announcement are 2 very different thing, no?

Actually there are, and UEFA have been cracking down on that stuff. This will be heavily monitored and investigated to make sure
Guess that is where @Carolina Red's post in the other thread comes in:
So City get him for free and just a coincidence the club his contract was terminated at was another member of CFG.
I had assumed he meant Umbro were the historic brand.
They are really proud of the Sheikhs book cooking operation. True sign of a big club that.
They're definitely going onto bigger names.
Aaron Mooy (9 letters)
Mix Diskerud (11 letters)
Next one will probably have 13 letters.
Dodgy as feck
He's also American. I think he already made an appearance for the U.S. in the 2014 World Cup.
On this "transfer" though, he was already a part of City Football Group by being under contract with NYCFC. It looks like NYC don't want him anymore, so Man. City are probably taking him in for now until they can send him out to another one of their many clubs. I doubt that he would even be registered for either the Premier League or Champions League squads.
Exactly what I was thinking. Having all these clubs so closely interconnected paves the way for some super shady stuff.
It seems like City are going to just help Mix out until he finds a club.
So City basically got NYCFC to terminate his contract, so that they could sign him for free and then sell for money. Nothing dodgy going on here at all...
