It's Quiet 17 - Glory Thread

Just catching up with the nights action… If genuinely him, I don’t think Neymar would prompt that kind of reaction from 93.20, in the same way it hasn’t with everyone else.

Personally I think any attacking signing will be a much more future focussed signing that Neymar, given the current balance of the squad and our options. The problem is the options are very limited, below is a list of young forwards valued north of £50M, and don’t play for Real, Barca, or one of our PL rivals.

Edit: And within those, if they Not 19 Forever reference was to age then Ansu Fati is currently 19. Nobody of note uses the #19 shirt apart from Diaby below.

Federico Chiesa (24)​

Moussa Diaby (23)​

João Félix (22)​

Rafael Leão (23)​

Christopher Nkunku (24)​

Mikel Oyarzabal (25)​

Felix or Leao, no way would we let Sterling go without a replacement, Palmer looks a prospect but he is very much one for the future.
 
Since when did Age become issues, plenty of top player way into 35 and they are still pretty good. The only major issues is injury record otherwise age should not be relevant.

When was the last time City signed a player over 30?

(for the first team)
 
My biggest concern with Neymar is that if he doesn't deliver or isn't 109% committed then his wages are going to end up causing a problem unless we can bin him off sharpish.

For all the bullshit chat about "this will destroy our wage structure!" players will actually start giving a shit if the best paid player on the team isn't delivering the goods week in, week out.
