Between them, they featured 46 minutes for our first team. That's £711k earned per minute they've played collectively. I think we get some kind of fee for Garcia, too, but I'm a bit vague on inter-association remunerations, so not 100% sure. And that's not even including loan fees. We only need to sell a couple more youths and fringe players to meet that £100m.

Plus money from Brahim’s move - although it’s looking like we’ll only get a couple of million from that.

If Bern or Laporte went for £50m that’s the £100m, like you say.

I’d give Jesus another season personally. It will be hard to find someone that is his level that’s happy to be a squad player.

Garcia was out of contract. No money there.
Sometimes we're good and sometimes we're bad but when we're good, at least we're much better than we used to be and when we are bad we're just as bad as we always used to be, so that's got to be good hasn't it?

They’ll be a settlement for him under FIFA rules.

And considering they offered £10m last summer you'd think it will be another couple of million in the kitty

So the PNE game at the academy, originally with fans, is now behind closed doors!

#ManCity have decided not to put tickets on sale for the Preston North End friendly at the Academy Stadium in an attempt to protect the new bubble of returning players and staff after the number of positive cases from an academy training camp jumped into double figures.

Troyes friendly now binned off and no plans to replace it, so we are officially back to just PNE and the charity shield

Don't we get something for developing him?

Have we sold him?

He is the only natural leftback in the team btw.

He’s not even a natural footballer, let alone a left back!

Yeah, we've had these leftbacks that can't actually defend for as long as I can remember. Remember that joker, Kolarov?

It’s embarrassing that Kolarov shits all over Mendy, still even at his age.

Not sure why it’s been such a problem area for us.

Mendy was our first choice option at the time we bought him. Do feel a bit for him as it never worked out. That said, he has never won many friends with his off- field antics and for me, doesn't deserve much sympathy. He should look at Delph and latterly, Zinch and be so embarrassed. Cannot believe we have let this position get out of hand as in Pep's system, the full backs are pivotal and we should be looking at Walker's replacement as well
