These journalists are scared of City. Forest told them they are getting £130m. They are scared to report this as City want £116m number out in public.
Now I know why these journalists stay quiet about 115 FC.
🚨🎙️ Rio Ferdinand on Manchester City’s reported £116 million move for Elliot Anderson:
🗣️ “You see the way nobody is talking about Manchester City signing Elliot Anderson for £116 million?
If that was Manchester United, the transfer fee would be all over the timeline.
People would be making memes, calling the player overpriced, and saying United had been robbed before he’d even kicked a ball.
It’s the same when Chelsea, Arsenal, or Liverpool spend big money. The reaction is never this loud.
But the moment it’s Manchester United, everyone suddenly becomes a football accountant.
Maybe that’s just the price of being the biggest club in the world.” 👀
Newcastle had to sell him to comply with FFP while he is currently signing for a football club who have been charged with 115 breaches of premier leagues financial rules.

Over 3 years have passed, and we’re still awaiting the verdict on Manchester City’s pending 115 financial breaches.
Signing Elliot Anderson for £130m will now take their spending to roughly £823m during that period.
Yep. Nothing to see here at all. Completely normal behaviour.
Totally get that he doesn’t want to be interviewed but this is incredibly rude.
He’s not just talking to the reporter… there are millions of Scots watching back home 🤯
The UK is only in debt because it Privatised everything.
If Margaret Thatcher had never existed and we never privatised Oil, Gas, Electricity, Airports, Water, Mail, Rail, Rolls Royce, British Airways...
We would have Trillions of Pounds and own everything, just like Norway.
BREAKING: President Trump said the newly restored Reflecting Pool would last "50 to 100 years" before needing major work.
Less than a week later, the sealant was reportedly peeling, algae turned the water green, and federal crews were called in for emergency cleanup on a project that cost roughly $15 million.
That's an expensive way to end up back where you started.
