Ronaldo

Two TOP LEVEL players... In the most vital role in a Pep-system... It's impossible in the current market. Kimmich could be one, but there just isn't realism there.

I do agree with succession planning but you're right as well.

In which case we manufacture top level players.. McAtee, Palmer and Perrone and try and mold them into 8's. Alvarez into a 10 and Foden into the Bernardo role.

We fans always undervalue our own players.. like when David Silva left.. the sky was falling and no one believed Gundo would be able to fill that hole.

Ronaldo

Cheers. Only Tuesday mind you.

 

[Lucidinho]

City still happy not to distance from Bellingham.

They have felt all along the tactic from Madrid is they want City to declare themselves out to put pressure on Dortmund to accept less.

A grain a truth Messi and Neymar have touted their wares to us, but they are doing that to plenty.

Even with the Knee injury?

 

[Keeper!]

I just see it as unnecessary stockpiling when we already have others who can play across the front 4.

We have to be mindful of progress while maintaining a harmony.

Look at who he has just left,if you want proof.

Mahrez out and we have a spot, and he has done himself no favours the last month.

a big difference between going from Perrone, McAtee and Palmer to Gundo and Bernardo, than David Silva to Gundogan :S

Im up for that.

 

[DeBlueLou]

Im up for that.

Kulu is a way more suitable mahrez replacement than Felix.

 

[richards30]

Im up for that.

PSG?

 

[Gaz (FMwkdsoul)]

AS has provided the latest on their pursuit.

After explaining how Real Madrid would like to sign the Canada international as a replacement for Ferland Mendy, AS has confirmed that Pep Guardiola would like to win the race by bringing Davies to City.

 

[Protein Junkie]

Gnonto linked to us by Italian media say Peps crazy about the young Italian

Pair him up with the Lone Ranger (Gvardiol)

 

[tolmie's hairdoo]

Even with the Knee injury?

No idea of the severity, he had been playing with it since before World Cup.

If it's that bad, he wouldn't pass a medical anywhere (unless related to Roque Santa-Cruz)

 

[Kamaro011]

Even with the Knee injury?

We will when we bought Gundo with his career ending injury back then. Gundo injury is worse than Bellingham yet we still buy him anyway.

 

[domalino]

There is no one like any of our players really, but the closest player I have seen to Bernardo's skills and qualities and versatility we already have, Foden for me is the best replacement. Gundogan and KDB are the ones we would need to buy replacements for.

I think Rico is a closer match to what Bernardo's been doing for the last 4 years.

 

[Trickyblues]

We will when we bought Gundo with his career ending injury back then. Gundo injury is worse than Bellingham yet we still buy him anyway.

I get what you’re saying but there’s a huge difference spending £20m on a potentially injury prone players vs spending £130m

 

[blueparrot]

PSG?

Very much doubt he’s going anywhere. Only ones I expect to leave are Cancelo, Laporte, Gomez and possibly Bernardo. 4 out 4 in.

Phillips?

 

[bugsyblue]

I think the thread title needs changing?

 

[skillman]

Xavi has said that Cancelo was offered to them in January (presumably by agents), they approved it then City said no to it happening.

Brilliant, I bet we didn’t trust they’d pay their cut of the wages. Especially given they probably still owe us for Torres and have had a scandalously-public charm offensive on Bernie for about 3 years.
