It's Quiet - a new dawn

[Kompany is King]

Great to hear our incoming signings are progressing at pace.

Important that we identify & secure our targets early as this will help significantly with pre-season training & for Pep to get his style of play across to new recruits.

I see our USA tour first match date is July 20th.

The only player to exceed over 8-10 million in a transfer sale will be Aguero. Even Nasri will need his contract paid up in order to recoup the reported 16 million.
We pay wages far in excess of nearly everyone and that's what kills decent transfer fees.

 

[BlueDejong]

City have worked a while on Dahoud.

As a result, I expect him to be ours.

Dortmund wanted Zinchenko last summer too.

Please !! We need him.

 

[oakiecokie]

Put it this way, I think most of our incomings are already close to being done.

Incredible.

As the saying goes "unbelievable Tolm". ;)

 

[BlueDejong]

@tolmie's hairdoo What do you think about Left back ? Kolasinac ?

 

[SPIDERBOY]

Imagine Jim White,if the transfer window was open for about 10 minutes,and we announced about 5 players.

Changing my guesses for ins and out

Definite Outs

Yaya, Zabaleta, Sagna, Clichy, Navas, Delph, Bony, Nasri, Mangala, Hart

Possible Departures

Fernando, Kompany, Aguero, Bravo, Denayer, Nolito, Adarabioyo, Otamendi

In

Fabinho, Heinrichs, Isco, Dahoud, Ederson, Bonucci/ Rudiger, Kolasinac Mbappe.

In the unlikely event of all the above coming to pass, that would mean 2 HG players in Sterling and Stones (3 if Mooy is kept) and 16 foreign players Willy, Ederson, Fabinho, Kolarov, Bonucci/ Rudiger, Kolasinac, Heinrichs, Fernandinho, Gundogan, Isco, Silva, de Bruyne, Dahoud, Sane, Mbappe, Jesus.

This would be supplemented by the likes of Garcia, Gunn, Kelechi, Roberts, Maffeo, Brahim, Foden and Sancho. We would also have to decide what to do with Zinchenko, Unal and Moreno.

Kolasinac's agent denying any talks with Pep, says it's nonsense.

 

[RayCTID]

We can rule out Moreno and Zinchenko for next season as they aren't getting many games at their loan clubs, Unal has a chance (he is performing at Twente), especially if Kelechi is loaned out next season and would save us money in buying another striker.

 

[Akiva]

Kolasinac's agent denying any talks with Pep, says it's nonsense.

I mean, it's unsurprising he would deny it happening, but BILD isn't the most reliable source around and, unlike when Gundogan met with Pep and Txiki, they seem to have no evidence to corroborate it.

Would be interested to know if @tolmie's hairdoo has heard anything about it.

Must be going somewhere if his contract is up.why dint they renew...and even more bizarre is Shalke confirmed a bid by Chelsea in January...why dint the accept it?..weird.

He would have a much better chance of playing time with us wouldn't he? All our full backs are old and on their way out.

You'd of thought so.

 

[Del_Bosque]

I reckon something along the lines of

Ederson
Fabinho
Bonnuci
Kosalinic
Weigl
Dahoud
Coman
Isco

Maybe some younger guys like Sessegnon in as squad players

Out
Bravo
Kompany
Clichy
Zab
Sagna
Toure
Navas

Plus
Hart, Mangala, Nasri, Bony

Hart - £20m
Nasri - £15m
Bony - £15m
Mangala - £15m
Bravo - £10m

Zabaleta - Free
Sagna - Free

Wow two examples. I retract my comment.

Di Natalie?

Hope this is true. He looks like a guy bound for stardom in Italy. We shouldn't get in the way of that :-)

Nooo, He'd be a very good option for us imo.

You've massively overestimated what we'll need to pay there. Rumour on Isco thread he'll only cost 10 mil if he leaves Spain for example. Not to mention potential swap deals.
