Be surprised we would be in for a 29yr old DM, don't know owt about him.

I work with a Bayern fan, he's hoping someone comes in for Kimmich, he can't stand the guy . says he is arrogant and petulant.

Well the other suiters according t'web are gooners, rags and murderers, sounds like he'd fit in nicely at at any of those.

Kimmich was a tidy player. Pep knows him from his time at Bayer so if Pep thinks he’s worth it, we’ll go for him.

I’d be a miserable cunt if I had to be managed by Tuchel as well.

Allegedly Pep and himself had a good relationship when Pep was there.
I think he would be a very useful player, can play in a few positions.
Having played under Pep before maybe he wouldn't need as much time to bed in.

Didn't Pep bring him to Bayern?

Too old for me. Looks like a rag type signing, no hunger and no sell on value. Its rare we sign players this age for big money. Kovacic the only recent player we signed this age and he was a cheap filler.

Tosin Adarabioyo is on a free this summer. Is it worth getting him back as cover? Havent kept up to date on how he’s doing but he’s linked with Spurs, Liverpool and Milan.

I think we could do with full backs on both flanks who can go forward with purpose. Reece James would be a brilliant addition but obviously his injury record would be a concern.

I’d love Reece James but he’s injured more than Stones. This kid we already have that we’ve loaned to Girona looks more likely.

We need a clear out

Nunes can go
Walker can go
KDB should go
And I’d sell Haaland , yep , sell him.

I don't think you would, I think you are too intelligent. If you're selling KDB (and I wouldn't be too disappointed if we got petrodollars for him) then a bit of a rethink on playing style could be had at the same time. Haaland has potential and I would not like to see him realise it elsewhere. We could have a go at adopting a style that plays to his strengths and perhaps get a few players that fit into the system.

Nunes just is not a city player , never was and never will be.
Walker is on his last legs and from a business point of view we should sell him this summer , same applies with KDB (some fans need to get off the sentimental tree and think with their heads , hes not far away from being well past it IMO )

Unless we do exactly what you suggest we do then I do not think its 'madness; to sell him this summer at all...we will make a huge profit on him and invest it elsewhere.

I totally agree. We'd triple out money. But he's allegedly the best there is and I doubt any manager would give up on him just yet.

“Haaland has potential” !!!!! ????
He bagged more PL goals in a single season than anyon before him……in his first season and he’s top scorer in his second. Sorry, I have no axe to grind with anyone, but that is a ridiculous comment and you’re not the only on saying it !!!
Sheesh…..what does the guy have to do ???

Absolutely. Came 2nd in the Ballon D'or as well to a Messi sympathy vote.
There's not a team in the world that wouldn't want him.

He's 23. Of course he has potential. Just because he is as good as he is and has achieved what he has it doesn't mean he cannot be improved, or that the team with him in can't be tweaked to get better results. Hopefully you see that.

Rumours Grealish could go in the summer. I can live in hope for a 100 million player he has been absolutely crap. We would be lucky to get 70 for him now but take it and get a proper quick wide player prob for the right as we have Bobb and Doku on the left. Bernardo will prob be off and Foden should take Kevs roll. Also move on one CB do we need 5 surely not and got a proper left back.

Well, now you’ve stipulated what the potential is it makes sense. Every player on the planet has potential to improve, but he’ll do well to improve on what he did last season. I personally think Bobb has huge potential to become a World star, hopefully with us. From what I’ve seen so far of him we have a beaut on our hands.

If Haaland was the same player as last season then some pundits and lots of us City fans wouldn't be giving him a hard time this season would we !

Hes getting it in the ear because hes become a lazy bastard and if its not down to him being lazy then its a attitude thing with him, a cocky ' give me the ball or I'm not looking for it " attitude , at least that's how it looks - how can you not see that he doesn't put the effort in when hes not in the penalty area ? how many times does he track back and retrieve the ball like he did last year ? where is the hunger he had last year ?

He is the best paid player at City and probably the premier league as well so I for one EXPECT the guy to put a shift in in EVERY game he plays and I wont forgive him for missing goals in key games like Arsenal at the far post and then a shit header that should have gone in or at worst hit the target- hes fucking paid to win us games.

We need to win every single game as we are literally 4 points behind Liverpool ( their goal difference is worth a point ) to stand any chance.
