I am a critic Of Raheem, but no way do I want him to fail miserably. His form lately suggests to me his time has run it’s course. I would gladly thank him for all he has given the club and to wish him the best in the future. That’s it, but it seems to be blasphemy to some.
It's because Raheem was never afforded the same amount of time (by some fans) that other players who had achieved as much would. And some would even single him out every week despite just being average in a poor/average team performance.
 
That is an incredible deal. Effectively paying 37m (40 if he's a success) plus a youth player who is talented, but unlikely to make it here.

42 rising to 45 would have been a reasonable fee on it's own merits, but getting 5m for a teenager who would probably have left for peanuts in a couple of years anyway is very impressive from Txiki and co.

Phillips must have really pushed for this too.
 
English international for £42m

Not bad City :)

Hope we get the Cucurella deal done as well :)
 
Think he will get a decent amount of games as Rodri back up and perhaps in a plan b style tactic where pep plays 2 dms - think he did it against Watford at home towards the end of the season
 
Decent fee. He's coming to learn and play with the best. No doubt in my mind he will become an asset to the club.

This means all eyes on the Jesus deal now. Bittersweet
 
A good signing and fee according to Red Cafe.


Over on RAWK he's a bang average signing, and his transfer fee is cheating FFP again via oil money.
 
I'm glad people are taking the Phillips news pretty well.

Deffinetly, fernandinho played 33 games for us last season so that needs replacing. Along with gundos last year give him a bit of time to get used to peps systems
