This, this and this again. Amen brother


I despair with us. He want out of Juve, what in gods name are we on the 9th thinking about. He would be click down from Rodri. Together in games when we let’s face it are over-run like the warning signs game,Fulham at home!! We need physicality and spiteful MF players. Foden Haaland can get on with winning games. No brainier I just do not see City’s problem.
He’ll end up at Forest or Villa. If he stinks on loan. Nowt lost .

Would he be able to play in the CL for us ?


only if we qualify for the knock out phase


So yes, but next season

If he settles we get CL Mate and as you said £100 mill loss avoided. Him and Gibbs White are two who I found were at it v us I like both tbh Mase. With that MF our ball players others can do
Their thing for us. I’m a surprised did not go 2/1/25 deal done.

Yeah but can he do the Fandango this chav Marmoush ?

So our priorities are a CB and SS, both seem they are going to come.
I swear, I feel we are lead by impostors at times.

We don’t know what’s going on about midfield targets although Douglas Luiz has been mentioned. It may be that other possibles are not available this window because Clubs don’t want to sell their best players in the middle of a season. Nothing City can do about that.

Unless they have release clauses that can be activated in January

So we are looking at two new centre backs. We already have five. So Gvardiol will probably always be a left back. One could be a right back possibly. A couple would surely have to go in the summer. Maybe Pep sees one as a DM for the time being. Seven CB seems mad.

They still have to want to come. Zubimendi has been talked about but it doesn’t look as though he would go to City. He might be holding out for Real Madrid.

I’d love to see City get Baleba from Brighton but would they deal this window?

Why can't a right be a right back? Why can't players play their positions?

Youd have to assume one or two of our existing CBs will leave at the end of the season given their age and injury records.

Stones and Ake. Not an age thing but unreliable due to injuries. Still fetch a reasonable transfer fee I guess.

The sad thing about Stones is that, of all our CBs, he’s the most comfortable coming into midfield as Pep likes. Terrific performance in the Champions League final against Inter.

I'd be happy wirh Luiz providing we can get him on the pitch great addition and should increase our set-play strike rate (not hard). The kid, no idea and doubt he'd do anything other than be loaned out. The Egyptian fan-boy, would offer respite to the viking no idea how good bad or indifferent he is. A marquee midfield signing in the summer with Rodders and Luiz we are much better.

He's a fuckin terrible left back. Hopefully Khusanov is a better centre-back/left back than him :D :D
