Watch Cucu play the first 60m vs Estoril in Portugal yesterday below, starting whistle at 11:30. Played fine - he's more 2-footed than I thought. Makes a key pass for BHA's 2nd goal. Its a good workout for him. My only complaint is him effing with his hair constantly. Tie it up or wear a tiara or something - sheesh. [pro tip: put playback speed at 1.5 to shorten the watch]

He said the same in May, that we would present Haaland and Cucurella at beginning of June. When called out about it he just bangs on about having lots of followers or interactions. He wants to be a name imo, spout bullshit, get followers, once enough followers you become gospel, that seems to be the modus operandi thing

Said Kane was a done deal last summer. Complete chancer

Different people have different meaning of “done deal” on here, seen many on Cucurella and other threads saying it’s done.

This is true, and I think the statement is often used to indicate that agreement with the player and agent regarding salary, has been reached. But who knows how true the statrement is.

There is so much bullshit from chancers claiming to be " in the know " that imo nothing can be taken as true until City announce the signing.

The chatter is obviously amusing however for the transfer threads but should probably not be taken too seriously .

PS I know fuck all !
 
aside from cucu, who else are we targetting? zinchenko's leaving so that leaves only cancelo (a right footer) in the LB position

No doubt he's a chancer, but, Everyone said Kane was a done deal last summer. People even claimed they knew the figures involved.

Apart from MattyB if I remember right, he claimed he had heard it wasn't on, and he got a bit of shit for it. Billyshears ended up being the only one that got shit for being wrong on Kane. Possibly because of how, passionately shall we say, he argued it with anyone that dared question it.

2 out of 3, not bad (guess who's missing...).
We even have a good kid for LB in JWE.

Looking at the minutes, another LB would be surplus.
Cucu should have about 1,000 more minutes than Zin (had 1,840 mins),
Aké should easily play more (had 1,740 mins), while Cancelo should reduce at LB (had 2,800) and play more at RB (had 1,800).

Per position you can calculate about 5,400 minutes per season (that's 60 full matches which is near maximum).
Take a sheet and do your own split per position, it helps understand how Pep is managing game time.

Pep concentrates his subs on mostly mid and forwards for fresh legs in the creative parts, so 1 additional player at LB would cost a lot and would only make sense expecting injuries. Obviously we trust our medical department and try to optimize our squad (and sign players with a general versatility to cope longer injury phases).
