That's the best thing I have read here in the last 500 pages, amongst all the knicker-wetting about CBs. Classic stuff.

Who hasnt?How would you know? He’s barely played.
Mbete, you’ve seen enough to know who’s better between him and Doyle?Who hasnt?
Buying after a world cup means inflated transfer fees from good performances.Not true, not a whole season maybe after world cup end there's bound a potential CB replacement that wanting to move given major international tournament like World Cup is over so no need to ask guarantee minutes for fear not getting selected into national team.
We're bedding in 2 new forwards and a midfielder, we can't be short of options at the back.
And Grealish.
According to the experts on here Jackie Boy will be raring to go from the off, not sure what difference a 6 week break does but let's hope they are correct.And Grealish.
PJ would offer 100m just for sh1ts and giggles.Even Peter Swales wouldn't be clueless enough to sanction that!
100% no chance that will happen, the delay is due to us sourcing a replacement, and I still think we could add another forward player.Ake will not immediately replaced atleast for this summer. If City can't find realistic replacement they will rather wait like they always do in the past (Aguero and Kompany case).

Both of them left on a free at the end of their contracts. Ake has 3 years on his. If the the club can't find a replacement, they simply just won't sell rather than waiting for a year with a player short.

You know it was a bit of an unnecessary dig from me that I now feel bad about. I generally have no interest in that. But the way the hard-ons for Grealish are swung around on here while pissing on important players in the squad draws it out of me for some reason. Hope the guy has a contribution this year, I really do.

They can't no to Chelsea money if they break the bank just for Ake because how desperate.
In the end if Ake told the club that he wants to go, the club will accomodate him provided Chelsea met City valuation for him. We always find away if we short of player, Philips and Walker will be makeshift CB if something worst happened.

Yes,ive followed the EDS for some time.Mbete has struggled since returning from injury.Mbete, you’ve seen enough to know who’s better between him and Doyle?
And yet you are advocating him as 4th choice despite clearly having seen far less.....

And good performances don't always result in good players, James comes to mind as an exampleBuying after a world cup means inflated transfer fees from good performances.
I read the CB as Colin Bell lolYeah I agree if Ake goes without question another CB comes in.
Hope that’s what you meant :)
Damn right, he’d raise it to £100m even tho he was only bidding against himselfEven Peter Swales wouldn't be clueless enough to sanction that!

At this moment in time, Callum Doyle looks more likely than Luke Mbete. The fact that C Doyle has played left back for the England U19s at the recent U19s Euro Championships is another string to his bow as far as City are concerned I'd have thought.Mbete, you’ve seen enough to know who’s better between him and Doyle?
Seems to be those who do, those who haven’t watched him. It’s evident from the past season that Pep wouldn’t dare go into a season with 3 cbs or 3 fullbacks, because that’s where all the issues were.Yes,ive followed the EDS for some time.Mbete has struggled since returning from injury.
