CostaJambo Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 No danger the guy is going elsewhere since we have secured his work permit, plus if he ever has any chance of appearing for Man City in future then a UK loan deal rather than in continental europe will surely not do him any harm which counts in our favour. Just a case of waiting for his arrival I reckon. Disclaimer: Hope he lives up to the hype. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not a Japanese visa, it's a UK visa, you just need to apply for it from outwith the UK and it makes the most sense for him to do this in Japan. The visa he had when he was over to sign for City and watch our game was likely just a visitors visa, hence why they were planning on loaning him out to a team in the Netherlands as he likely wouldn't have got a work permit for City. He now has a work permit to play for us so is able to apply for a UK working visa. Edited August 23, 2019 by Jamboross Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He would’ve entered on either a travel visa or short stay business visa to finalise his Man City contract and take in the County game before heading back. He’ll likely now be applying/have applied for a visa which includes a resident permit which will be good for a minimum of two years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sign for Man City (I’m sure there were conditions that had to be met) ✅ 2. Receive a work permit (he did not automatically qualify for one) ✅ 3. Apply for a visa to enter the country and work tbc As he would have been unlikely to receive a work permit for Man City I believe the initial thoughts were that he would be loaned to a club in perhaps Holland or Belgium .... however it looks like multi lingual Austin had a few words with him and he understood it was HHGH for him!!

Cruyff Turn Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 Just give the laddie a chance. 🤷♂️ Might need a bit of time to acclimatise and get used to being kicked up and down the park, but look, Man City’s scouts aren’t usually wrong, Japan has loads of quality, technically gifted youngsters and they chose the sign this boy. He might be a bit lightweight, he might not be very defensive minded, but he’ll be very skilful and good on the ball and that is why Man City have signed him.

I'm totally fine with sh1t spelling and punctuation but this using "of" instead of "have" is scumbaggery of the highest order!!! Me too. I absolutely cannot stand when people use 'of' instead of 'have'. It's bad enough when people say it, but it grinds my gears even more when they right it down that way (sorry, I meant write it down!) I can forgive the use of their instead of there instead of they're, or of instead of off, it's instead of its, to instead of too, and so on. Its easy to make those sort of errors if your typing in a hurry (and before anyone pulls me up, that was deliberate use of its instead of it's and your instead of you're). But if I read that sentence as I wrote it, it doesn't bother me at all, and I wouldn't think to call someone out on it. But when I see could of, should of, would of, I fecking despair. I guess I'm just a grumpy old bass! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Incidentally, what's that about? What's the point of having a cake if you don't get to eat it? I think the reference to having your cake means keeping it. In other words, you can't keep your cake and eat it, you have to make a choice, i.e. you can't have it both ways. I understand the confusion, because clearly you must have a cake before you can eat it. But it makes no sense, because why would you have a cake if you didn't intend to eat it? It's not as if cake is an investment, like say gold, where you could buy a chunk, hold onto it for a while, then sell it and make a few bob profit. If you bought a cake and stuck into a safety deposit box for a year or two, by the time you open it up, the cake will be manky, and worthless. So I have to agree with you entirely... What's the point of having a cake if you don't get to eat it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
