Ha ha . I see the goal posts moving again.
Do you actually mean a thread of > x number of posts, your specific definition of “exciting” , a “forward player”, who doesn’t turn out to be “pants” ? Etc

I think club talks to agent ro see if playerwould be intrested and howmuch he will be paid, If player agree then they make fornal transfer bid

Darwin Nunez? I was tempted to bounce the Calleri thread for you, lets hope this Cucurella saga turns out the same way for City as that one did for us.

I’ve fought a good fight on Twitter but I’ve run out of energy, City fans are a blinkered bunch delusional *****. They haven’t got their way so are desperately trying to insult the club. It would have been fitting if they had named one of their stands the (Colin) Bell End.

How realistic is Football Manager in these cases?
Is a price discussed with the player like in the game? i.e. has a discussion been had about an acceptable bid before Cuc can move? I had kind of assumed it had. But then the transfer request (if it actually happened) seems to suggest that this discussion hasn't been had.

I get the feeling that most of their fans on Twitter would have no idea who Colin Bell is.

Is signing a player and then player loaned to Union a definition of excitement? You tell me. Transfers are all part of being a football fan.

Just seen a tweet showing his new agent has started following the official Brighton page as of yesterday.
Almost certainly means bugger all but could be the start of other rumours.
Different clubs operate in different ways...
Most (initial) transfer talks these days are done over WhatsApp. I could imagine Ferran/Txiki sending messages like "£35m?" and Weir responding with laughing smileys rather mentioning any specific fee that he & Bloom wants.

I meant between club and player. "If they offer 50 mil you can go"

You said it would be nice to have some threads about incoming players “ for a change. “ There have been literally hundreds of them .
But Now you’re talking about actual signings not threads on NSC . Well There’s been dozens of them too .
Of course If you want to debate whether signing Vicente was more exciting than signing Enciso or Caicedo or Welbeck or Trossard - then I think I agree with you - it was ! - but it’s always hard to tell ha ha.

Back when they were united fans.
It happens. Not sure if TB plays it that way though... he is pretty ruthless when it comes to business, it seems.
Not sure anyone except TB and DW knows how much City would have to pay to get Cucurella.

Extremely private. Values loyalty. Very small circle of trusted lieutenants. Absolutely GRANITE
How can terms be agreed, he's not even allowed to talk to them.
