Everyone who plays well against us seems to be on Pep's radar. He's having a good season and has been a prospect worth noting for a bit.

HG players are always at a premium, and we may need more with the FA's agenda trying to line up with Brexit, even if the PL disagrees. This move would probably please Southgate as well as we could have a possible 3 of the 4 back 4 for England.

Yes please great player.
 
No, but you can bet your bottom dollar that when the ‘buying success’ digs come in, cos of a 100m worth of left backs, people on here will cry.

Why would anyone need 100m worth of left back?

On a day when the prodigy we’ve all been waiting years for, leaves for a paltry £15m.

If this was the rags you’d be ripping them apart. You know it.

If this happens my guess is Mendy would probably be sold over the summer.

Didn't realise you were paying!?

Seriously though, why would we care, pay for whoever Pep has identified as required to make sure we keep the title and have a proper shot at the CL that the owner clearly wants.
This all day long,

1. He is good enough
2. 3 English lads at the back now that would be nice
3. Delph, Zinchenko get away with it because we are so good on the ball
4. Mendy is out again & needs lots of games under his belt to get anywhere near the level City need him to be

Angelino is another who wasn't good enough sorry
 
Too expensive?
It doesn't matter who we buy, we have to pay through the nose.
Unless it's some underage player from a minor league.
Possibly even then we're paying more than we should.
Leicester won't sell in January unless we are giving them a replacement left back and we don't actually have one available. Do we?
 
We sign him in January it will be money well spent.

21 & current LB for England & can play exactly how Pep wants.

40m + bonus is what we need to pay then bloody pay it if it's true.

Not a chance Leicester sell for less.

Delph can play inside.

Mendy will be back March, it's a long time, Delph as we know can't play week in week out.

If you want back to back titles & a proper Champs League run we need a good old fashioned LB.

Sorry but Zinchenko isn't that player.
imo, nor is Mendy
 
Good player and English
Exactly what we need, style pace etc
Not sure Leicester will sell to us
Who knew Robertson would be so good
I don’t think there are many world class players out there at full back to be honest
 
What I noticed in the England game after not seen him play much is how confident he is on the ball and how good he is technically on the ball.

How many games has he played at the top kevel?

Should seek to us though. They got a good deal with mahrez so can’t complain there. £50 mill is steep but I rate him . I do like mendy but starting to see small chinks which I don’t like
 
Certain people in the media heads will spun if go out and buy another defender for 50m haha for that reason We should buy him :))
 
Get this deal done.

He is what we need right now.

Delph cover inside & Zinchenko can go.

Zinky can go? He's gotta score before he goes, and I want to see him for a full 90 playing HIS favourite position. He's a good lad and plays footy the PG way! Does this geezer Chillwell play the 'right way'? If he's home grown he'll need a couple of months tuition from Bernardo on how to trap a ball!

You will be waighting a long time then
 
I suppose this supposed price would plummet after Pep asks him to 'invert' the whole game and he is left covering 40-50 yards every few minutes chasing opposition wing-backs. I am more than happy with Alex in a given role.
 
If only we'd looked after/tested etc our CFG lads who apparently didn't have a route into the first team.

Back to the hindsight thread but 2 untried lads who showed loads of promise out and a nothing special LB in for a £35m? Loss.

One of the few things I didn’t get in peps reign was letting angelino and maffeo go. They seemed perfect for us so there must have been things behind the scenes we don’t know eg attitude, not good enough in training
