What if Guardiola is ready to make promises? He's someone he knows and trusts unlike David Moyes. I still don't believe that Thiago will join us. We always fail on these kind of transfers. Lucas, Hazard, Nasri, Coentrao, Varane and Sneijder just to name a few.
I feel you man, all these transfers though had reasons, using them as an example is wrong to do unless they have similarities, most of these wanted excessive wages and we had to fight with money rich clubs at the time. Like look at hazard, he is on £185,000 a week at chelsea and he was only 21 years old, similar to nasri we had agreed a deal and he was desperate to join then city offered him more and paid the requested agent fee.
If anything thiago is similar to de gea, we had a big gap in goalkeeper at the time just as we do now in midfield, there is no comparable club who can sign a player like this as we have the weakest midfield thiago has the choice whether to leave or go here - its not just down to some competing team just offering them more money.
The one thing that is worrying though, david moyes as you said, i just hope if that meeting with mazinho is true he made a good impression.
Think we will all know more tommorow at press conference, i dont think hes made his choice yet so wont be a denial or unveiling, but we will get some knowledge.
This.
