It's Quiet 17 - Glory Thread

It would be a massive shame if we let Lavia go, but I guess he’s not going to sign a new contract when he’s got Rodri and Phillips ahead of him.

Not sure he’s anywhere near the level now or in the future personally. Sam Lee says buy back clause included either way.

Good move for him that.

Hope it’s a loan! I thought he was on course to make the step up to the first team.

I see Walter Mitty has woken up and had his first pint for a while....

Permanent with a buy back

Sales with buy back / sell ons are better than loans.

I hope all our sales of youth players contain a good sell on fee.

Is anyone else getting a little concerned were selling practically most of our bench.

Every young player is pele in the eyes of many on here. And we say united big up youth, Christ

In today's episode of Channel 5 hit series Squad Swap, Chelsea and City discuss trading DeBruyne, once of Chelsea, with Ross Barkley, once linked with City. There have been no discussions to date but Chelsea are optimistic a deal can be reached and City are braced for a bid which will be well below their valuation but they may accept anyway. Also on the show, the two clubs swap their Mendys to see if anyone will notice. Advert break.

When you have an abundance of riches the treasure chest needs room to fit developing assets that need time to mature.

clear exodus in youth level. Delap imo next with buyback option.

these young players need playing time to improve.

 

[waspish]

Better he goes to Southampton because if there is a top player in there it be 2/3 years before we see it good luck to the lad!

Unfortunately there’s more youth coming through and if the current crop don’t look promising enough then the new crop need to be given a chance, we also need to meet FFP requirements so all these 10 million sales add up to a quality signing for the first team, it’s the circle of life

 

[Thenumber1blue]

Not in the slightest

Don't think he was being serious.

These buy back clauses are essential, if they are good for city they will come back

I thought Douglas Luiz at Villa had a chance but still not exactly at our level

Don’t know I think a bigger sell on clause would be more beneficial something like 30% then if we want him back if he is worth 90m we would get him for 60m

Was Gus also sold to Fulham or something, is that why he left?
