[SWP's back]

See you Raz

 

[argyle]

See you Raz

You think it's happening?

 

[SWP's back]

You think it's happening?

Yes.

 

[kaz7]

It is a rumour ffs , such as you are desperate for him to go you want to believe any old shit , barca want our whole team apparantly

 

[argyle]

Yes.

Shame. Had hoped he'd have an extended spell out like Stones and get his form back.

Would be surprised if it happened in January though.

 

[mosssideblue]

Yes.

Hunch or decent source?

 

[super_city_si]

How long does Barcas wage restriction last? Barca are shit and skint. Good luck in the europa conference. May as well sign for Spurs

When he went through 1 on 1 in injury time, did you fancy him to slot it home though?

No. I never do, unfortunately.

Back in January he was 1v1 with Chelsea’s keeper, approaching their box, they were the only two players within 40 yards of the goal and no other City players in that half of the pitch… by the time he shot there were eight players in the box, two Chelsea defenders on the line and three City players up there…

I think that was the final nail in the 1v1 Raz coffin for me. I’m never going to expect him to score 1v1s anymore.

But I have enjoyed his cameos up front off the bench. I think he’s been good.

Pretty awful at 1v1s.
Superb recovery with that Chelsea one though. . No lost ball or possession and superb shot over 4 defenders and the GK onto the far post and the KDB goal following up.

 

[Barcon]

Barca? Buying Sterling? Couldn't buy a fucking handjob.

 

[SWP's back]

Hunch or decent source?

Decent source.

 

[PannickAtTheDisco]

Thanks, but he's done as much as he can achieve here and the past 2 and a bit seasons have been largely awful.

Last 50 apps: Gls: 10, Ass: 8.
Previous 50: Gls: 28, Ass: 12.
Prior 50 to that: Gls: 29, Ass: 16.

All we need to know.

Even allowing for a growing number of cameo appearances those statistics don't look great. It is looking very much like he will be the one to make way if a new striker is set to arrive. However, I still think he might have a few goals left in him and I would not be happy to see him go to Barcelona in January without a big arrival.

I would if it meant a bigger fee overall and Haaland next summer.

 

[SPIDERBOY]

Decent source.

Apparently Pep is very keen on Nico Gonzalez,19 year old defensive Midfielder(I know it's not the same position as Raz) who's been called up from Barca B.
By all accounts a very good player and spoken highly of at Barca.
Maybe some sort of deal where he comes this way?

Hopefully not another Garcia.

No idea mate,know nothing of the lad,was just summat I read the other day.
Could be bollocks.

 

[MeatnSpudsMCFC]

Sterling going anywhere is no fucking use to us at all.

We are of course always linked with players from all over and many of course turn out to be players bought for a potential profit down the road rather than inclusion in the first team squad.

Agree mate,but not all those are described as 'Pep very keen on getting him".....as I said though mate,could be bollocks.
