Yeah I’d go for Cucurella as well. He’s looked tidy from the little I’ve seen of him.

If we sign left back and DM then we’re set for the season ahead

The beeb are linking us with a move for Kalvin Phillips to replace Fernandinho......, missed a good chunk of this season out for 16 games (Dec 5th-end of March)

Their source was the Mirror article of yesterday, valued at £50M, looked half decent for England in a few matches last summer, anyone else wish to offer an opinion?

I know we've been linked with Aurélien Tchouameni but personally not keen signing another French player, they always come with some sort of baggage or chip on their shoulder (Anelka, Mangala, Nasri, Clichey, Mendy) I can only think of one who just got on with the job & that's Distin (even he went anti City after he left).

Don't think you can blame all French players for 1 or 2 having an attitude. Don't think Mangala or Clichy had one nor Sagna or Laporte who you've left off.
I'd have loved Henry and Vieira at their peak and they caused very little grief.

Calvin Phillips?

No thanks

He'll join Stones on the treatment table for half a season.

So Mbappe is staying at Paris and La Liga, better said Tebas are going to take them to court.
Fantastic, just fantastic.

What is interesting is how things have changed for the old cartel.
The two most exciting young players in world football are at City and PSG.
Utd are not being associated with mega moves, even in the press.
Liverpool are having issues with Salah and Mane extending contracts.

Haaland and Mbappe are a real headache for the old guard. They are box office, the successors to Messi and Ronaldo, they will have to be hyped because they will drive revenues and subscriptions but they play for the hated City and PSG.

Dilemma time
