Paulo Dybala

[aguero93:20]

I wonder who the five could be???

Be disappointed if Bony, RSC, Corradi and Vassell aren't on the list.

 

[cityzennn93:20]

Guessing the 5 strikers
Kane
Hazard
Werner
Dybala
Lewandowski

I think hazard is on the list of wingers not strikers. Icardi is one mentioned in the article so my geuss is
Dybala
Icardi
Werner
kane
Lewandowski.

 

[Delphinho]

If Kun leaves which is what the article implies then we would get atleast 70m from him.
Dybala 140
Weigl 40
Mahrez/bailly 50
Is a total of 240
Subtract 70 from that and maybe and extra 10 from other sales and it's a 150 net spend which is affordable for us.

Don`t think we will sign both a winger and a CF

Lewandowski wouldn't succeed Agüero, they are the same age.

Dybala
Kane
Icardi
Werner
Mbappé

Dybala, Griezmann, Werner, Kane, ????

Greizman over Lewa. The others all have about 5 years or more before they start to slow down. Lewa has 2. So he definitely isn't one for the future.

Lew is too old ffs

 

[Delphinho]

I wonder who the five could be???

Hazard, Kane, Werner, Dybala, Leao

Doesnt imply that, says in the future, whoever replaces him I'm pretty sure we are looking at the season after next or later, which discounts lewadowski for me. Unless its a striker to go on loan I wouldnt expect anything other than a wide forward this summer.

Icardi would violate our no dickheads policy.

"City’s biggest buy is still the £55m capture of Kevin De Bruyne three years ago. “Maybe it will happen in the future but so far we have not spent £100m on one player, or £90m or £80m,” Guardiola pointed out. “We cannot pay that right now, they tell me. That is the truth."

Can`t see us spending 100m+ for Dybala, even though he is a fantastic player. A DM, a winger (Bailey, Kluivert, Bernard or Mahrez) and potentially an LB is all we need

 

[Easy]

I constantly see Dybala suggested as an Aguero replacement. I mean has anyone here even watched Dybala play???

He is not an Aguero replacement and has never played upfront on his own.

He played up front for Palermo and has done it a couple times for Juventus as well

according to the article we are doing personality checks on him to see if he is suited to our dressing room.

Don’t recall it, I just don’t see him as a striker .

[doobyedoobye]

I can't see Kun going anywhere this summer

 

[Easy]

I meant leading the line as a striker ala Aguero in our system.

I have checked a few of his CF appearances listed above and so far it has been with another striker in a 2.

I don’t recall him leading the line by himself which is what we are looking for in a striker.

Maybe he has had the odd appearance as sole striker but it’s clearly not the right position for him.

Spend whatever budget we've got on a DM and a winger. Use Angeliño/Maffeo/Sandler/Gunn/Garcia/Celina to fill out the squad

Agüero never lead the line at Atleti. Forlan, Torres, Costa.. he always had a partner. Even at City, he was paired with Džeko, Balotelli, Tevez, Negredo before he really lead the line. He only really started playing as a lone striker a few years ago.

That’s true but La Liga is a much higher standard than Serie A which is improving but I think it might be too big of a step for him right now.

I mean he is very talented but I don’t know just seems overhyped for me the times I’ve watched him.

The biggest issue is that he will cost £100m+ and for that I think there are better alternatives.
