I actually don’t think we will go for a central defender though, with the addition of Cancelo, added to Rodri, that allows us Dinho to drop back or Kyle to play in a 3.Not sure why Otamendi would need to go if Sane is leaving. Our foreigners would be:
1 Ederson
2 Bravo
3 Cancelo
4 Laporte
5 Otamendi
6 Mendy
7 Zinchenko
8 Rodri
9 Fernandinho
10 Gundogan
11 Silva
12 Bernardo
13 De Bruyne
14 Mahrez
15 Aguero
16 Jesus
17 New CB
Cough up Bayern :-)Latest from Sam Lee from athletic q&a
"Sane has one foot out of City, he’s told the players he wants to go, and he has a huge offer that City simply cannot (well, will not) match. It’s about £360k per week! The only thing left is for Bayern to agree a fee with City, and City want “Dembele money”. And so they should. City are working on a CB but it’s not massively likely, as it would also need Otamendi to go (foreign quota). Danilo/Cancelo is nearly done, as you’ll have seen. Been told it could be finalised tonight (but announcement is at the mercy of the clubs)."
I'm not saying that the France Football article is true (they are reasonably reputable, but I'd be surprised if we'd accepted an offer of €110m after our briefing the other day), but to simply dismiss it because it was relayed via Twitter is absurd.
Sidi, Sidi, the best player in the land and in all the world.

Song writes itself, really.
Yes.....and a very good one.
Previously Leroy has intimated that his where he gets his balance from when dribbling at speed. :-)
Equal risk keeping him if he doesnt get what he wants and hangs around the dressing like a slapped arse till January.Massive risk to let him go this late on in the transfer window with no replacement.

Yes , he has a very balanced and graceful way of movement.Yes.....and a very good one.

I don't know where on earth people have got the idea from that Bayern will stump up £120m or so.
Until this summer the most they'd ever spent was £37m. I just cannot see them spending that on Sané. I mean, he's great and has huge potential, but it's potential which may or may not be realised and £125m (let alone £137m) is silly money. They'd be mad to blow that and they are not mad.
That's why Pep said the situation has changed a bit then, but still doesn't mean anything until Bayern can match City's valuation of Sane, so nothing changed much as Pep said really.Latest from Sam Lee from athletic q&a

And people say music isn’t a powerful force for change!Sorry, @SebastianBlue, but that doesn't quite scan. That's why we won't be getting him.
How much can you see them spending?I don't know where on earth people have got the idea from that Bayern will stump up £120m or so.
