Where have you discovered the rest?

To be fair if he has booked with British Airways he will be fucked and literally anywhere .......

looks like we're after most of the Monaco defence, which is a worry since we scored 6 against them in the tie.

They were shite defensively!!!! Mendy at a push and fabinho!

Seems old school typical city to have such a shite defence and target defenders from a team we knocked 6 past in one game and who were prob the worse defence we came up against all season!
derby day the scores were level,
then the goat was fed by neville,
silly boy should know for sure,
feed the goat and he will score!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

There was later post from Damien 10 that said the GPS had been turned off but that was deleted it seems. He's a long standing plane-spotter so the BMs took notice- he appears to have been inebriated. Apologies for reposting it at that early stage.


Haha. Hail the plane spotters - not as useless a hobby as I once thought!

The Sanchez rumours are gathering pace, with Bayern allegedly pulling out of the race. This could be one hell of a window, and we've not even had the Champions League final yet!

Glik and Raggi are pretty poor, their full backs are good though.

Should also add, it's easier to look a good defender in a defensive system, not so much when the team is set up to attack leaving you exposed.

From what I've seen, I reckon Sidibe is actually better than Mendy.

If Kompany will stay fit we will be fine with any of those players.

The key is to have somebody to lead them.

Yep. Ederson today and Mendy's as good as done. All the talk about an alternative RB to Walker essential to keep Levy from dragging things out. Would still love Fabinho as defensive midfield.

Looks like Ederson didn't fly via British Airways then ? Good lad here safe and sound . Bit worried about Mendy though he has been stuck mid air somewhere since Saturday ???

While there's some real quality in that Monaco team (Mbappé, Bernardo, Fabinho...), I reckon Sidibé is just one of those riding on the collective wave. At least that's my impression from a very limited sample.

Latest news from Mendy was in a text he has just sent moments ago to the dustbin man at the apartments where he lives; "Arrived safely in Manchester, currently at the sushi conveyor in the airport. The portions are huge but all taste a bit luggagie."

Load of goals next season.
I reckon we'll win most games 14-12.

According to Sam Lee who is supposedly ITK. Works as City correspondent in goal.com or some such;
Ederson is here and will sign today or tomorrow.
Fabinho is not on the current list. He isn't aware of a DM that we are in for as Yaya will be announced this week.
Mendy and Walker are very advanced and he is confident City will get them soon. Mendy possibly by the weekend.
Further off but still saying City are confident that they are in the driving seat, is Alexis sanchez, who wants to work with Pep.
Arsenal would prefer to sell to Bayern obviously, but he thinks City will win here.

He's online answering questions as they come up. He says Bonnucci is also a player we have expressed interest in but wait to see what happens in the CL.

So a whole lot of speculation there. I don't know how trustworthy he is.

Ederson seems to have 3 owners, that'll slow it up a bit. Unless it's been negotiated for a few months of course

Happy enough with yaya and the ferdis in that role for another season- there are more pressing concerns

Agree with that Wooders mate, but date of birth disease coupled with a lot of games might take its toll. We certainly need more quality depth there.
