Re Pol's article, I'm not keen on the idea that Zinchenko, Jesus and Sterling have to leave before signing Cucurella/LB and Phillips. If valuations for those three aren't met, then the implication is that we don't get a starter left footed fullback and DM depth - which seems mad considering the amount of games they will be playing

I don't think that's what he means. I think it's just a case of numbers and there needing to be an outgoing for there to be an incoming from a squad registration point of view. Jesus will certainly go, and Zinchenko will probably go. The fact that City are speaking to Brighton suggests that it isn't a case of "we'll see" but more "we'll get this done".
Anyway to read these articles behind the paywall ?? :)

I always prefer an older keeper as back up
Someone happy to sit on the bench and coach a little
Someone like Foster at Watford that kind of profile
It concerns me when a young keeper comes that they may lack ambition

I've no doubt Pol has been close to stuff on some occasions, but quoting Catalunya radio doesn't do his reputation for sensible stuff much good over here. Also, we are supposed to have 120m burning a hole in our kandoura, from last year.
He hasn’t gone to shit tho it’s not possible it’s not like he is now past it in fact he should still be getting better

Use the extension Unpaywall. And while I was looking for that, I found this .....
Twitter has its uses after all.
Strike that - doesn't work, but in my defence, I was distracted :)

i dont think you could class de jong as a boobie prize, but it would be hugely disappointing to lose bernardo regardless!
This is the bit that's a bit dubious. I get what you mean, they are moving ahead with deals but to be waiting for sales due to player registration numbers at this point seems odd to me. Like you say, if they are likely to go, Jesus in particular, so why wait? With Cucurella, it seems like they only really want him but could also be priced out.
I'm not impatient or in doubt about those transfers, I just find it a strange tactic for a hectic season.

Sterling, Gabby no idea the third
Don't think there is. Tbh, I like The Athletic content - decent for coverage of NFL as well - and it's great Pol is on there now.
Zinny West Ham?
Gabby, sterling, zinchenko???
Zini ?
That should bring in 130 million
