Let's hope that's the amount of goals he scores next season


Hopefully that'll be just in the Prem.....

So, Gabby Jesus as the new number 9 then?


Postionally maybe but not shirt wise, I believe he chose 33 as he wore it at palmeras when they won the title. Which is more believable than the one about it being the age Jesus died...


Yeah I read that he requested the number 33 last season. Maybe the number 9 might be too tempting for him? Or could it be Kelechi's if he isn't sold/loaned.


Well I'm sure nacho man didn't choose 72 :lol:

Having just looked Gabriel has worn #9 for Brazil (as well as 10 & 11) so maybe 33 was the best available when he arrived so you could be right after all...

I'm pretty sure I remember Nacho saying he wanted 72 because it added up to 9 (and 9 wasn't available).

Levy apparently wanting 60 million for Walker. Absurd. We need a strong plan B Levy's a nightmare to deal with. Threaten to leave him with an unhappy player.

A dipper fan at work was all smiles and excitedly rambling about how they had finally "gazumped" us with van dijk. Hilarious how the only way they seem to compete with us is to use shady tactics and it's not even the first time they have been caught doing this! They truly are a laughing stock. Can't wait to see my colleague's face tomorrow.

String them along until deadline day. Do a De Gea on them.

Just buy another full back (with Maffeo going out on loan we'll need another anyway probably), cos Levy and Joe Lewis aint gonna pay for that stadium out of their own pockets

They are waiting for international clearance. It's because he hasn't yet got a full cap for Brazil. It's all signed and just waiting for the paperwork to go through the right channels

Costa has confirmed he is no longer wanted by Conte at Chelsea and he was told by text message from Conte. They will be much weaker without him if they get lukaku.

Were not really in a position to do that. Better to look at alternatives.

City watch running an article which is quite puzzling....

They reckon Bravo could be going to Lille on loan!?!?

Currently he is our only first team keeper as Ederson isn't yet set in stone.

Does this mean earlier rumours about Valdes and others could have some credence?

Surely Hart isn't returning as no2 given the rumours that it was less about his ability as a keeper and more disruptive influence, plus he said his future wasn't with us.

I know we'd pretty much all want shot of bravo but surely only once we have two keepers fully signed up...

The story comes from El Mercurio in Chile.

I'd be surprised if I'm honest, can't see Bravo being willing to uproot his young family again for a temporary move.

Not really on topic, but seeing I found it while looking at a story about Dick van Dyke, here we are.

Don't bother with the article, it.s the usual bollox, but scroll down to where it says "Top 10 defenders in the Premier League based on stats"

Amazing!
