We have it on good authority, earlier in this thread, that there are better players in the youth team than Marmoush. I don't know who they are, or anything about him for that matter. But who are we to doubt such wisdom?

:D :D :D

Sold Palmer and brought in Nunes.
Sold Lavia and brought in Phillips.

Definitely sold kids that aren’t as good as the players we’ve replaced them with.

Marmoush has a terrific record in the Bendesliga which is a strong league. Im excited to see him play in a City shirt.

If Marmoush has a ”fantastic” record in Bundesliga, then what do we call what Erling is doing every year? If I recall he is getting some shit this season and still he is smashing it with half the service he got in the past?
I am not saying the fella might not be good, but based on our transfer activity, let's hold on a bit.

Also we are bringing a 20 year old uzbek. He is coming into the most competitive league in the world after playing just 24 games in the league in France. He only scored in the Belarus league.

With the situation we are having, we should look for players that have a name. Yeah, like Luiz, but I see he is linked with Forest, not with us.

We desperately need a player of this calibre, a proper enforcer, we've not had one for a long while!

Please let this happen.

The way he was tackling and his “yes sir” celebration reminded me of Otta - so I’m in!

Fingers crossed he will learn very quickly about lunging in with 2 feet but a player that isn't scared to actually tackle someone cleanly with conviction, we just don't have that, we have a bunch of pussies that shit the bed at thought of tackling the opposition as we have seen all too much of recently.

No worries, he will play as a right back his first game here.

Piss aside, I think it’s mental to pay 40 mil for somebody who has less than 30 league games played in his career into a semi decent league. We shall see, I hope at least he speaks the language.

To be fair we have had some quality players from German football Michael Tarnat, to Erling and many in between. Despite having no history the greatest FA Cup story of all time was a German legendary figure in a City shirt. Sign the lad but get Luiz in.
