Dump on man city site in middle of the night coming
They can say, he's out of contract but the club is in negotiations with him. Others clubs have done that with players out of contract.
There might be an announcement that he's formally out of contract. I honestly don't know. But I am reasonably certain that would not preclude a deal later just because they make that announcement .
Mark Booth probably just held it off an extra day to troll this guy on Twitter who was hyper-confident about saying it would happen today.
Yeah, that guy's a turd.
Everyone's just Guying it up here on the forums today. I'll just keep to myself here on
He probably posts here under a pseudonym just so we won't make fun of how wrong he was.

LAFC is about to make it 14 announcements in my thread so far. Possible I've missed a few. But that would still leave what, four delinquents besides NYCFC?
Ok so maybe we’re not the last (yet), but once in a fucking while it would be nice to be transparent and early with shit.
Why do they feel this need to always be so secretive?

Based on your thread, DC, LAFC, New England, NYCFC, RSL and San Jose are the holdouts.
But RSL just dropped.

Since there's no actual news to talk about tonight, let's peek at what the expected compensation model has to say about NYCFC's 2018 roster. The idea here is to fit salaries to key performance stats by position in order to figure out who's over- and underpaid.
- Berget's contract is the hardest to justify—the model figures he was more than $500k overpaid this season. I'll be very surprised if that deal's extended.
- Ibeagha (+$200k) and Shradi (+220k) are no-brainer bargains. They should be back.
- Bizarrely, the model says Wallace produced like a $560k player on a $300k contract. It's looking at xG rather than actual goals, but still. I don't know man.
- Just when the Wallace thing's got me ready to scrap the whole project, it assigns Morález the highest expected compensation in the data set at $2.7m and totally redeems itself. Whew.
- Most other players are in the close-enough band. Tinnerholm is a little on the expensive side for a fullback and Medina hasn't quite grown into his salary yet but I assume they're both guaranteed next year anyway. I'm cool with that.
- This one's my favorite: Sweat's expected compensation is pegged at $200k—the exact raise he reportedly got in his extension.

Been playing the ol' reverse-psychology negotiating tactic all year.
Putting my tinfoil hat on for a sec, Villa is not coming back so they're figuring out a way to drop the news. With the clubs track record they might dump it on Friday afternoon.
Where does Villa fall in here? I don't see him on the grid

I filtered out players under 500 minutes or over $2m to avoid skewing the regression. When I write this thing up I'll probably go back and run the high-dollar DPs to see what their on-field production would have been worth, but that's only part of what guys like Villa get paid for anyway.
