Transfer rumours

[Mase]

Echeverri on loan to Lazio? Will not be happy if this is case.

Our transfers both in and out have become laughable.

[Mase]

Pretty much confirmed that Trent is off to Madrid in the summer. Wouldn’t be at all surprised if him and Bellingham came out as a couple.

Just need Salah to confirm he’s off and scousers will fall apart.

We extended his leave period after we bought him. Pep hasnt considered him since he arrived. Talk of a loan move is taking the piss - out of us fans . Surely this is just twitter bollocks. We need this lad to start for us asap

Why?
Pep and the coaches have seen him up close.
You've seen a YouTube video and yet you demand he starts?

If the coaching staff don't think he's ready then surely it's better he gets some game time elsewhere.
My only reservation is Lazio are a very strong side and you'd think he'll struggle to get in their side too, if we deem him not ready for the PL.

EXPERIENCE BEYOND HIS YEARS

Having moved to the big city so young and been a captain throughout the youth ranks, it’s already abundantly clear that Echeverri is not your typical 19-year-old.

His 48 appearances for River Plate’s senior team, including 10 games in the Copa Libertadores and 24 in Argentina’s top tier, will only stand to serve him in even better stead as he progresses into senior football in England.

How many talented players have City let go ?
Our manager and coaches have fucked up plenty of times allowing talent to leave Man City - I personally think it’s a mistake to let this player leave.

[sheblue]

Surely he should be given a chance first.

Definitely think we will be badly missing a trick if we let him go on loan. Why the hell are we not giving him a go now when he can't do any worse than some of them that step on the pitch and quite clearly need taking out of the side, and in some cases for their own good.

Just mindboggling.

Ill also add that playing for River plate is far more daunting than playing in any match in the premiership, as far as a hostile fan environment is concerned ( Players need a police escort at times when they lose a game...especially against their main rivals Boca juniors) I lived in Buenos Aires and know how it is over there.
If you are a sensitive soul then you will not make it in River plate....100% factual.

Some of our players would shit their pants in some of those copa libertadores matches....Stones would be injured in the first 5 seconds of a match.

All this ' he needs experience in another league' is complete and UTTER bullshit.

[Mase]

The club well and truly has lost its fuckin mind if we do this.

No way Pep or anyone else can make a judgement based on 2 weeks of training. Give the lad a chance in training for the rest of the season to at least settle ffs - he’s coming from another country - and then see. Ship him off on loan for a season, he comes back with 2 years left on his contract and has to start the process of settling in a new country again.

Completely agree.

We scouted him presumably for a while. We then signed him. We then wanted him in January rather than the summer which his old club preferred. So let's see what all the fuss was about.

Can he really be less effective than Silva. Or Gundogan. Or Indeed most of our midfield over the last few months.

Absolutely guarantee our rivals would have already tested the water with him. It's not like a kid from the academy. As Carl pointed out, he's got big game experience already. Khusanov was thrown in at the deep end and he's flourishing.

[salford city]

Hoping this is just someone wirh an axe to grind made up bullshit. I'm not doubting his temperament or skill coming from river plate - the kid can play. Makes zero sense to move him on straight away without giving him opportunities

After visiting Rome twice I can honestly say that if I was a footballer and I moved there for a season I definitely wouldn’t be coming back to flippin’ Manchester The place is beautiful.

[CTID Hants]

I wouldn't put much credence to this story, it emanates from esteemed Kompany site, written by a bloke who lives in Australia and works as traffic controller as his main job.

He's been writing for esteemed kompany for less than 2yrs and probably never even been to Manchester.....

He's old enough, talented enough, he has enrgy and skill and has experience at senior level and U23 Argentina international. Cant do any worse. Besides our coaches have been utter shite this season. Cant defend , close a game out, shite at corners, free kicks etc our tactics are poor. We seem to train them at 11 man rondo and have no plan when we lose the ball

[Hazy2]

I find it hard to imagine the player annd his team expected this. Has A whiff of your not for us!!!!

More stories about the club 'assessing ' Echeverri's future in the summer. With Lazio and Girona now mentioned. Seems we are being softened up. Wonder if KDB extension talks are getting involved in his future? .
We would be mad to let him out on loan, we would be mad to put our faith in Kev for one last hurrah, in front of trying our new blood. We all accept a rebuild rethink is necessary. It wont be successful with the same old guard, same tactics

If true, no young player should come to us. Absolutely no point until Pep leaves.
