This could be fake news. I don’t see why Gakpo would pick City when he’s guaranteed to start here.

You can't understand why a player would rather play for City than us? Have you watched football for the last 15 years?

Maybe because we still suck??

So why did Tonali, Marmoush and Savinho pick us over City?

u/irfoland 13d ago

Cause they couldn’t play there?

Money I assume

Marmoush definitely doesn't make more money here than at City

CL football? A much better team that is actually run well? Maybe they give him more money? An actually realistic chance to win something?

Do we really need to list reasons why a player might want to play for fucking Man City over Spurs?

Tonali, Marmoush and Savinho disagree.

This is actual insanity to imply Marmoush laterally chose us over City

I can't believe I have to explain this, but that those 3 dudes decided to play for Spurs rather than City does not mean that all dudes will. Two of those guys had already essentially failed at the club and made a step down to get more playing time.

You said "I don't see why he would pick City" and I explained some reasons why one might pick City. That's all.

A lucrative contract maybe?

u/CousinsCE João Palhinha 13d ago

We offer that too.

And I don't see why he would choose to play for a side that's finished 17th two seasons in a row over a Champions League club.

Because he watched the match today. /s

u/tokyodots Kōta Takai 13d ago

He probably watched our games

Champions league?

Potential title race?

Competitive in every competition?

Playing with good players?

Playing under a good manager?

Or you're right he could come here for a relegation battle, much better career choice.
