It's Quiet - a new dawn

[domalino]

Well if we do, then it will be tough. There just. Doesn't seem to be enough spots to keep Sanchez, Mbappe, Jesus, Sterling and Sane happy. We almost would have to want injuries that keep at least 1 out often.

You'd need either a formation which played 4 of them, or at the minimum to use 2 of your 3 subs bringing on the benched ones each game.

And what do you reckon the odds are of them all coming - I think you have mentioned two full backs are signed sealed and delivered how many more will be coming?

This are the kinds of questions that cmakevshake my head. Tolmie is not in the heads of foreign players. So he surely can't know what is certain. He can tell us what City might be thinking or who they might be interested in, but he can't tell us who they are guaranteed to get. No one can definitively answer that question right now. :(

He arrived as a hero, and he left through the back door.'

Aguero has been the only player who left Atleti under a cloud, as he was stupid,' said Cerezo on the Spanish radio station COPE.

It's worth pointing out that the cloud was not entirely of his own making...The president promised he could leave for the amount we paid. When we offered that, they played hard to get and tried to ignore the previous agreement with Aguero at which point he threatened to go to Real Madrid, and they were forced to sell him to us for the price he'd agreed to leave for 12 months earlier.

The upper management took umbrage at that move and poisoned the well.

Either way he aint going back and they couldn't afford him anyway.

I'd take any one of three, as long as we also signed a technically world-class, tackling midfielder.

Thank you.

Pep and Txiki are your men for a Q&A.

Always just sharing my excitement at info from genuine people.

Are we in on any?

Thanks as always for doing so. It makes the summer much more interesting.

We know mate and appreciate every possible snippet - even more so now Pep is here - which is why im bouncing off the walls at the possibility of players like Sanches, Mbappe etc

Perhaps we are spending that Messi money that has been accruing interest in our owner's pocket for the last few years!!

Time to cowboy up, people.

Just had a discussion with someone about it and they are bang on, we have to be quick and decisive this summer. The rest will follow if we make that initial statement.

All the top clubs have money to spend, and Pep gives us a real edge.

Money to spend & lots of wages off the book's.

This has to be the year we get it right & Pep isn't going to sign anyone who cant cut the mustered & that includes moving out the players that aint up to it.

he knows the young kids now & will have been studying carefully.

he will buy at least 3 more young kids & blow the rest big time, these big deals like you say will have already started months ago they just don't happen.

I wasn't asking for guarantees just his thoughts on how many might come

 

[harvo the blue]

The unrest at Arsenal has been on the cards for ages, Sanchez & Ozil simply don't want to be there & the other squad players know it.

Pep's never going to stick to one formation and he's never going to put himself in a position where he's jgot no fullbacks to play a back 4.

The fact is they can be cheap compared to everyone else. Newspapers are reporting that we expect to raise £80-100m in player sales not including Aguero. Add £60m for Aguero and a £150m budget and you've got near £300m to spend if need be.

I was more worried about playing time for the forward guys. But he can bring back Maffeo and play Larporte at Left fullback in a back 4 formation.

 

[LurkedMoar]

Bloody hell, huge news! Anybody have any solid info on who the fullbacks will be? We've been crying out for a decent pair since God knows when.

 

[Serg10Aguero]

If we signed Griezmann that would be hilarious, the rags are convinced he's off to the swamp

He's signed 22 separate contracts with them since January.

Just a guess, Henrichs and Hernandez.

I can't see us getting sanchez. I think he'll either go Chelsea or juve. Ozil will probably go abroad too.

 

[citytill1die84]

If we signed 2 of Sanchez, Mbappe and Griezmann I could get over Aguero leaving but I say fuck it sign all 3 :)

 

[Dax777]

Cheers

My apologies. Didn't mean to be a sick. I could just see some knob in September whining "but Tolm told Eds we were definitely signing 7 and Mbappe or Friedman was a guarantee with 2 flying fullbacks!"
