I can see Kova being back up for Rodri more this season.

i'd be worried if our rivals had done some major strengthening but there's been hardly any transfer activity of note by any of the big teams so far this summer[/quote]
Don't you just love those PSR regulations they all voted for!!

Its the obvious choice, or some type of pivot thing. Still both options are a long way short of the real thing.

I would have liked Guimaraes but City were not prepared to pay 100 million and the bar codes were not prepared to budge. Pep said O’Reilly could step in for Rodri this season but that seems a stretch. Kovacic it will be presumably perhaps with Bernie as a double pivot now that Savio is there as a potential right winger.

The likes of Oscar, Rico and even O’Reilly have a real chance this season. You’d think that Kevin and Bernardo may be playing their last seasons, maybe Walker too. Time for the youngsters to show they’ve got the right stuff.

I'm sure he's impeded our youngsters from valuable game time.

Lol
A mediocre season whilst blooding the kids is a great route to mid table
But there may be one or two who can make the level. Like the kid who scored against Barca.
I don't think McAtee will. If he does it's a slow road

https://x.com/slbsn/status/181936810970 ... 9Awxy5lqVQMiraculously Atletico have 70 million to spend on initial payments for imports. Gallagher if he says yes and Alvarez?

He said a week ago he's happy at City, so why these shit rumours continue is beggars belief.

With great respect, that is simply not true.

With all due respect you're prepared to believe an unofficial source via FB, Pep said that over a week ago.. and from what I gather since Pep did say that Ederson said he was happy to stay.
The post may be 3 days ago but it doesn't state who said what when from any credible source.

We really need to milk this as much as we can. We have all the cards to get at least 80 mil. He is young, highly rates and has a long contract. Do not fuck it up.

Conor Gallagher has agreed to join Atletico. Chelsea wanted him out the door because he wasn’t prepared to sign a new contract knowing Mares a didn’t see him as a first team starter. Chelsea bank the full 40 million euros for PSR purposes.
