We're being linked with Donnarumma. Not great with his feet but world class with his hands

All the signals suggest City will go for a number two if Ederson leaves.

HUGE mistake. Ortega is a great backup. There’s a reason he’s not chosen for his country and no one has tried to buy him. Fuckin Bravo levels of stupidity if we do that.

Josh fucked up for the first Celtic goal but Ortega showed his whole right side of the goal to the attacker. Ederson would get pelters on here for that

Dont know what Phillips is doing in a City team anymore. Cut our losses and offer him for nowt. Talk of another lian spell is a joke. He hangs around the club like a bad smell. He might be a nice guy and a ready smile but he is stopping some of our youth getting the experience they need. He's history and should have been left training in Manchester. He's had ample opportunity to sort himself out

Don't think Maignan would come as back up but it does seem unfair in Ortega - who won us the fourth in a row btw. EDS reality on show the other night, JWE is not our level but Perrone & Bobb looked pretty good at times. The rest need time to show their qualities but not in our first team for a while. The Croat injection should make our next games better on the eye.

That’s mad. He’s definitely got potential and was looking good before his injury.

Sam Lee suggesting Ederson was pissed off by the praise Ortega received for the save against Son and from suggestions that he wouldn’t have saved it. Not sure what to make of all this.

Being paid millions a year and you throw your toys out of the cot, and demand a transfer, for that !!???

Like most suggestions, they are literally that and the thoughts of somebody with little if any tangible credit or knowledge in the matter. May be some legs in Ed being pissed off with the praise Ortega got but I reckon Ed himself would have come flying out, clattered Son and gotten himself red carded and missed the two games anyway.
No-one better as a sweeper keeper than Ed but even he is not indispensable. We need to sort it one way or the other and move on

Would love to see Ederson absolutely batter the fuck out of Sam Lee. Make it happen City.

Agree the excremental capacity of Sam Lee is exceptional but this tweet exhumed from Eddy at the time gives me pause

More down to Son's crappy finishing than a superb save.

However a very important save , nevertheless.

Eddie would have left that one in, sadly. On one vs one Ortega is the better keeper.

He went mental when he went out, but Sam Lee is full of shit. If that would be true, then Eddie should be shipped out. A save that brought us the title and you are upset. Childish.
So yes, bollocks.

I am 100% he wants the big pay from Saudi after considering he won everything. Doesn't have the motivation. Look at Oscar, surely Ed comes from a place where they lacked money, so understandable.

I would rather sell him than having an unhappy player.

A keeper that can save penalties? Yes, please.

When Akanji fucked up against Inter, Ed made a very good 1 on 1 save.

There seems to be this myth that Ortega is a better shot stopper than Ed. It’s not true.

Looks like Ederson and Alvarez want to go. Bernie and Kevin staying. No talk of Walker leaving this window. Whether Kevin runs down his contract to zero or he gets an extension remains to be seen. Bernie has two years left with that reserve clause. I maintain there should be an early deadline for Ederson and Alvarez. Find a new Club who will pay the price or you stay.
