How much would he cost? Rather stick with Harwood-Bellis than gamble he’ll be better after a bad injury.

TBB probably doesn't fancy coming back and being sat on the bench.

Lewis Hall is another Anthony Gordon albeit different positions.

All thrust and drive, but not enough intricacy and intelligence to make it at a higher level. I would stay well clear of Hall. Not City standard at all.

Anthony Gordon is actually really good though

 

[Paul1970]

Barely getting time at Brighton, surely just use THB?

I agree we are talking about a centre back yet we probably have one of the best up and coming defenders playing at Burnley and he will save us millions .

Not according to the few Everton fans of my acquaintance.

Would be such a Pep signing, I bet he's been super impressed with him at Brighton.

Signings like these (if it happens) lead me to believe Pep is interested in staying a few more years yet.

Why wouldn't he be? He's got free reign here at city. The press are not as ruthless and invasive compared to Germany and especially Spain. He's got a whole team that plays to his specifications. He can buy any/different types of players he wishes. He's got a supportive board who he's known for a long time. And the club is on course to just keep growing and growing and getting better with stuff like the city group, expanded stadium etc...

No where else would he be able to get the support and comfort he has here at city and I'm sure he knows that. Plus international management at this stage of his career doesn't make sense, he's still relatively young as a manager only 52 and can coach at the top top level for at least another decade. Then maybe he can take on a less intensive international management role but now he's in his prime and so it'd be a waste for him to go into international management

They are just bitter.

Remember when Liverpool fans were "happy to be rid" of Sterling?

Romano now saying we could attack the situation. Could be a good left-sided defender.

Don't think they will have changed their minds if they watched him against Newcastle

We could probably cover the fee with selling Doyle and Harwood-Bellis. Both of which were actually more highly rated not too long ago IIRC.

 

[ElMago_DSilva]

Is he?

He wasn't even consistent for Everton, let alone get a starting spot for Newcastle most weeks.

These types of players are nowhere near our level. Absolutely nowhere near.

So if he doesn’t feel valued next season, we’ll make a move this summer? They could at least try harder to make sense, even if there’s no truth in it.

I'm assuming it means after he's had discussions with the manager (whoever that may be) in the Summer.

how would be important here though? Cracking young player but would have Dias, Stones,Akanji in front of him?

Ask Nathan Aké

 

[richards30]

Ask Nathan Aké

but not in the position he would normally play mate? Ake came as a CB and was on the bench mainly until Dias got injured, Laporte seemingly kicked off behind the scenes and Ake took over from Cancelo and done amazingly?

 

[kun]

His normal position literally does not exist in City's system.

His "normal position" was left of a CB pairing (in and out of possession).

He's now a Left-Back out of possession, and a left centre-back in a three out of possession.

My point is there are spaces for Colwill. Cancelo will be leaving, Laporte probably too.

 

[It'sBlue93:20]

Looks like he is leaving Chelsea.

I’d happily take him at City as our Laporte (LCB) replacement

This lad is nowhere near Gvardiol, IMO. He had a poor showing yesterday. One decent season is not enough for me, so he is not a City-level signing. He is yet to prove that level.

And Gvardiol is proven playing in the Bundesliga?

He’s been beyond decent. He has been excellent. Young but experienced in English football. Excellent ball playing defender. He’s less of a risk than Gvardiol imo and cheaper
