Always respect your views - but we differ here

I know the stats are good - but I trust my eyes and am confident that one of our new strikers getting the chances that he as been given would be scoring a hatful more

I think that Chelsea fans will see the same issues over a few months - so it is a win win for me

I know he misses chances but he creates loads of space with his runs and gets into some great positions. More so than any other player in our team. His final ball often leaves a lot to be desired. If he improved on that and his finishing he would be right up there with the best. Although he never will.

I've got no issue in selling to Chelsea and Arsenal. They may be rivals in terms of positions as it is only 1 or 2 places but they are at least 3 years (Chelsea) and 5 years (Arsenal) in terms of competing with us which by that time both Sterling and Jesus will be near the end or past their peak and will most likely be getting replaced themselves.

Also combined both scored 21 goals in the league and 7 in the champions league last season (4 of Jesus' goals were inflated in one game btw). I feel confident that Haaland, Alvarez, Palmer will get 28 goals between them to ensure that neither player is missed whilst at the same time not hurting us by making Chelsea and Arsenal that much better that it's an issue for us.

Good luck to him. He’s head and heart haven’t been at city for most of last season. There is something about his attitude that’s not always quite right, he won’t fight if things don’t go his way but he’s not been a stick of mither. Brilliant player, I’m sure he will pull up trees for the first 6 months or more and Chelsea will be pleased - I hope he settles there and does really well.
 
Would sad to see him leave; such a pivotal player over past five or six seasons. Would argue however, he’s definitely not been a 50 million pound player the past few seasons so it will be interesting if he can pick up again.

It’s time to cash in whilst we can. City are moving up a level with their summer signings. Believe me when I say both Raheem Sterling and Jesus will look at City at the end of the coming season with envy as our great club hoovers up even more trophies, breaking a few more records on the way.
It’s like being in a bad relationship. You have to know when to let go.

No it isn't. It's like being in a good relationship that's run its course
