Summer Transfers

[Mancity1980]

Jordan Pickford has officially signed for Everton FC for 25m possibly rising to 30m.

and the £23.6m signing of Ajax captain Davy Klaassen on a five-year deal.

The blue dippers are finally spending some serious money. This should shake things up a bit in the EPL, it is becoming an elite top 7 - last season it was 15 points and a 25 goal difference swing between 7th and 8th.

They're spending a lot of money, but are these players any good? Koeman might be making a rod for his own back with these signings

Maybe, maybe not. But in the long term he who spends lot finishes high in the league and the premier league top 7 are doing so and are creating a little league within the league that no other club can consider breaking into. I think I read somewhere that in days of the "top four" all of them had a budget at least THREE times that of any other team in the league. I don't think it will be as extreme as that but I would be very interested in the size of that 7th to 8th gap at the end of next season.

Klassen is decent but isn't the most inspiring of choices.

 

[I'm With Stupid]

Pickford is a decent young keeper, but I'm surprised at that price. But I guess if they get 10 years out of him, it'll be money well spent.

-------------KDB---------------SILVA----------
STERLING----------JESUS--------------SANE

Subs: Bravo, Nico, Danilo, Gundogan, ????, Bernardo, Sergio



You could say there's a room for another defender and if we are planning to go full god-mode next season then Alexis Sanchez

I am already giddy as fuck, just can't wait for the season to start.

When you see it written down like that our squad is pretty frightening
