Why?

I keep seeing lots of Felix fanboys on the forum, but no-one has yet managed to even really tell me who he's replacing. For what he'd cost, he isn't sitting on the bench. So are we dropping 100 million pound Grealish for him? Or Foden? Or Haaland? Or KDB? Or Bernardo? I won't mention Sterling or Mahrez because ultimately those 2 get regular bouts of serious disrespect from a lot of people and are being sold every summer according to those who constantly covet shiny new toys.

The world is full of talented footballers and Manchester City can't buy them all. We have an incredible squad and have won 4 of the last 5 titles. This sort of Football Manager thinking is entirely contrary to the way in which the club operates IMO.

Haaland>Kun
Felix>Gabby
Alvarez>sterling

If sterling doesn't leave we dont sign felix. Seems a pretty straightforward assessment.
 
I don’t mind Jesus going for a decent fee, I think he’s a good signing that’ll do well as the main man at any club not trying to compete at the very highest level. He would be a great signing for Arsenal.

Pep loves him, the club love him, the fans love him but there's not much we can do if he wants to be at a club who can assure him the starting 9 position.

Everytime this guy has stepped onto the pitch he has given it his all. He deserves to be happy and content.

If it was me I'd try and convince him for 1 more year and assurances of a starting RW spot alongside Haaland and assess again at the end of next season.

Agree with the sentiment. But I don’t think any player is assured of a spot in our team, with the exception of Ederson
 
Rather him go abroad as hate seeing decent city players playing against us.

If he does go to Arsenal an interesting take would be some type of swap with Saka. Can see him in that cancello role at LB/WB.

Appreciate Arsenal value him highly, but when has that stopped them being our feeder club ;)

To put that rumoured arsenal contract offer in context it is the same as they were paying Lacazette who has just been released. Hence very affordable. (Cant believe lacazette was earning that much)

Hence wages is covered already.

If they truly want him we should be driving an extremely difficult deal on the fee. They must sign a striker and a good one to take them up from 5th. Good luck to them finding a prem proven or top 5 league winning striker for less
