This in a nutshell , all players fees will be falling off a cliff , if we are patient £50m will buy a top centre back , we dont need to replace Sane like for like , he's a brilliant player but we have players of the same standard to playnig his position ,but we desperately need a top class centre back to play alongside Laporte , if we get the right player it could deliver us the title next season
Agreed. We would get Ben Mee back for a lot less. Top no nonsense defender who is never injured. We don't need a fancy fan. Laporte can do both. Or Thiago Silva for a years contract. He's on a free I think.
 
How much did signing Mahrez unsettle Sane and convince Sancho to leave? I’d have done whatever it took to keep both but hindsight is...
 
Fantastic player on his day, not enough of them really. Don't think he developed as we hoped, he might do it there and we'll be fine. Never thought he'd hang around, thought it'd be Madrid one day anyway
 
To reply to your edits - It's incredibly vain to tattoo yourself on yourself, and also, don't pretend like he was serious about it or planned it.

Anyone who has seen the awful quality of that tattoo knows he didn't spend time on planning it. He didn't take the time to find a great tattoo artist who specialises in drawing people.

This is a guy worth millions, he could have gotten a proper tattoo artist who wouldn't have given him a twiglet for a leg and a face so bad you'd be forgiven for not recognising him.

He should have given Otamendi's tattoo artist a call. His tattoos might be unusual, but at least they look like the people they are.

I said people DO plan and are serious,he has loads of them,if you are one of those he will regret it when he is old types then no point talking about it
 
Whether you liked Sane or not, he us no longer a city player and wasn't here long enough or played enough to become a city legend in the 3 full years he played for us.

A great talent but will be remembed in the same vein as many attackers we have had over the years, unlike this periods silva, ferdy, yaya, kompany, zaba nd aguero who will be truly legendary in our memory


Thanks for the time given but about as fussed about this as when Peter Beagrie left

Great player and a huge loss as far as I am concerned
I loved watching him and I believe he could have reached even greater heights
His face obviously didn’t fit and he became disillusioned
It’s a shame but hopefully we get a good replacement
All the best Leroy
 
Selling Sancho for £8m, not replacing Kompany, spending over £100m on Cancelo and Rodri, selling Sane for £45m, has anyone thought to question Txiki Begiristain’s position?
The 8m we got for Sancho was agreed before we got youth compo, not sure what the record is but he was 17 years old, as we’ve all read Cancelo was a bit of creative accounting & nowhere near 60m paid out, Rodri, its way too early to be judging on VFM, if he stays for 8 years I’m sure we’d of had our money’s worth, and we’ll end up with a good wedge more for Leroy, how do you replace a generational player like Vinnie? Genuine question fella....you any suggestions? I’d take a repeat of the last 10 years transfer activity & I’m sure most would, think we should all be enthused by the possibility of a squad re-jig it worked out quite well last time!
