It's Quiet - a new dawn

[pudge]

Bonucci showing, again, that he's one of the best.

 

[Dax777]

Dortmund's Dembele just made a great run & cross for Dortmund goal. Are we linked with this guy at all?

If we're looking for a winger this could be the guy.

I don't think we tried for him last year when we had the chance. He is pretty good.

 

[himalayan_blues]

We gave dortmound free run for dembele by signing gundogen

Bonucci showing, again, that he's one of the best.

I will be surprised if one of us or Chelsea don't go in for him this summer.

By the looks of what happened last summer I think he came quite close to leaving Juve for City.

Maybe he will look for a change.

If Juve win the CL he may feel he's achieved as much as he can there and it's time for a new experience.

Not sure why he has so many detractors here. He's widely regarded as one of the best CB in the world and is a perfect Pep player.

I'd personally prefer Laporte for age, language and potential but Bonucci would be a big get. Heard anything, @tolmie's hairdoo ?

If Juve win the CL he may feel he's achieved as much as he can there and it's time for a new experience.

Don't think he needs that to happen to feel that way, for the following reasons:
1. He was seriously considering moving to City last season anyway, until his son got sick.
2. His, very public, row with Allegri left a sour taste and it would be hard to imagine both stay.
3. Juve are shopping around for a successor to both him and Chiellini and have one already in Rugani. There's also Barzagli, who is still immense. Basically, Juventus are stacked in defence.
4. This may be Juve's last chance to cash in on him.

Think Juventus could win it, though Real would still be favorites, but if City make another run on Bonucci I think things could be different this time round.

Woukd be interesting how Bonucci would cope with no one in front of him he gets protected by at least 4 hard working defenders in front of him

there is a facebook page called MCFCjustsayin and the guy that runs that seems to get get really good info and he posted this last night:

***TIMPERS UPDATE***

Ok, so I promised you a transfer version of one of these so here it is....

First of all I'd just like to tell you that no matter what you've heard or read in the press, there hasn't been any deals completed behind closed doors whatsoever for anyone, so nothing is 'done' or 'completed' yet!

...
I've been told that there's gonna be about 5, maybe 6, first team signings coming in, but as many as 13 going out permanently, apparently it will definitely be double figures! There maybe more incomings but they will be similar to last summer's Enes Unal and Oleks Zinchenko signings - young players for the future!

With regards to names - we're definitely in for Alexis Sanchez, William Carvalho and Ederson (GK) - whether they come is a different matter. We're also apparently interested in Danny Rose, Ben Gibson, Jordan Pickford, Benjamin Mendy, Leonardo Bonucci (again) and Aymeric Laporte (again)! That's all I know on the incoming side of things.

Outgoings - apparently all of the out of contract players will be leaving barring a last minute change of heart (which is very unlikely), so that's Willy Caballero, Pablo Zabaleta, Gael Clichy, Bacary Sagna, Yaya Toure, Jesus Navas and Tosin Adarabioyo. I'm told Nolito will leave permanently as will the likes of Wilfried Bony, Samir Nasri and Elia Mangala. I'm still being told that Kelechi Iheanacho is going out on loan, but I was told that in January as you lot know!

Now for Mr Joe Hart! As you know I'm close to good friends of Joe's and I've spoken to them about his situation. Even though he'd love to come back and give it another crack, unfortunately he knows he's definitely leaving permanently this summer! Straight away that rules out staying at Torino coz they can't afford a permanent deal. His representatives spoke to Chelsea last week and nothing came of it....for now! Apparently he's not interested in Liverpool and Liverpool aren't interested in him, however, when asked about going to Utd, apparently his words were 'you never know in football' and he wouldn't rule it out! Obviously Utd wouldn't be his preferred choice coz he still loves City but he also realises that this move is a huge one and he needs to be playing at the very top level. If Utd were the best option on the table then he would have to take it!

And finally I will leave you with a bit of good news - Gabriel Jesus is almost fully fit and should make at least a substitute appearance in a game before the end of April, although this weekend's Semi-Final might just be a bit too soon!

Hope that update was suffice for a bit, even though there's nothing really concrete happening at the minute!

has been spot on in the past with his info so thought I would pass it on. interesting that he doesn't mention mbappe at all?

Ye I seen that in the early hours. Joe Hart to the rags hahahahahahaha. He does get some info correct and he also gets some wrong and when questioned he gets very angry haha

 

[Otamendi's Beard]

Apparently Neymar was in tears after last nights game and people are linking it to the fact he's moving away.

Probably bollocks, but to cry after a quarter final in which you never looked like turning around seems strange.

Hopefully it would be to us and not a rival. Him linking up with Gabriel Jesus would be genius.

Sane Jesus Neymar

Yes plz

yeah he does have a short fuse mate! lol surely the same as tolmie though as not everything comes off? gutted if we don't get fabinho to be honest as he is a perfect pep type player who can play midfield or full back

 

[richards30]

Sane Jesus Neymar

Yes plz

but for neymar money we could get mbappe mate?

 

[Twingatz]

Bollocks not good enough back to goal, touch not good enough, Everton will be after experience & they have 2 good kiddof there own. West Brom wouldn't suit him PULIS. I can see him maybe in a Southampton squad but never starting week in week out.

He will go to Italy or France

He will go abroad but I don't think Italy or France. Many of the faults that he has is because he is in a system that doesn't suit him. Also how do you know if West Brom doesn't suit him. Berahino did well there before his fallout with with Pulis. And I am confident that if he was in Southampton that he could get to a level where he starts regularly. He has the ability and drive to improve, he just needs to go to a place where he can play and improve and where the coach trusts him.

Giving up on youth players isn't always a good thing as players improve at different times. Patience needs to be had with some.

 

[Akiva]

MCFCJustSayin says some stuff right, but that's usually because he goes for the safe predictions.

Oh, multiple sources confirming Sanchez to City? In.

William Carvalho signed with Pierre Guardiola and is linked to City by The Sun? In.

City wanted Laporte and Bonucci last season? In.

Other, generally unremarkable, affordable signings? In.

He may well have some legit sources, but he's not really giving any juicy or new rumours that haven't been reported and discussed to death. Oh Joe Hart is leaving in the summer, well I never, better add some shock value or people will wonder why they wasted three minutes reading this shit: he's going...To the RAGS!

Hopefully it would be to us and not a rival. Him linking up with Gabriel Jesus would be genius.

Fabinho and Ederson to round it off. I'd say the Brazilian media might take an interest at that stage.

 

[citytill1die84]

Fuck it mate let's have both :)

Made me laugh. I must've left the MCFCJustSayin page around 5 times, only to be invited back in to receive his obvious updates.

I'm not sure how people continue to lap this up (around 5,300 members now) and think he's a big ITK.

Fair enough on the kit picture, but Footy Headlines had already revealed the colours and accurate mock-up two weeks ago (at least).

Guy talks some utter bollocks.

Remember his rock solid big claim last month that Bravo was benched for a game and Willy was starting, about 2 hours before kickoff? Then Bravo popped out proving the lad talks utter shite.

 

[GX Blue]

The only ITK info I saw on here was when Delph signed for us. A guy posted info about his U-turn before any press or media reported it.
He never claimed to be ITK either. Just said he got the info from a mate and it was true.

People will get info about the odd deal but people who claim to know stuff about all our deals I just ignore. They just reiterate what they see in the papers and online. Some of these people do make the transfer forum interesting though and in the summer months im more than happy to play along :-)

People get the odd snippets, but the ongoing lads(Tolmie aside) are generally wums. Only last year a friend was working on directing a tv advert with Lionel Messi, and the only thing I got from that was that he was p*ssed at the Spanish govt. Hardly surprising :-)
