I really don’t get that though as he will never ever be first choice at City, he will only be a squad player and rotation for Rodders.

He would start every week at Newcastle and be playing in the Champs League, he’d be mad to not be keen.
Maybe he backs himself to become the key piece Pep envisioned when he was signed? Not sure how many more examples we need of poor season 1 players who kicked on in season 2 before we trust City and Pep's judgement.
 
Why must we take a chance on him?

Hes not good enough. It was such a poor transfer decision by us even before this shambles of a season he’s just had.

If we can get Rice with him going the other way it would be an absolute god send.

(Seems a nice guy though and popular with all the players but unfortunately he has to go for me)
Play him as a left back.
 
I very much doubt the PL nonsense will put players off - I suspect Txiki’s phone is on fire with agents calling him. I think one of the major issues for this window is accounting for the impact of the last 3 months of this season - players are not going to recover physicallu or mentally in three weeks (they will be exhausted) so we need to refresh things and cover a lengthy lay off for KGB. Kovatic makes perfect sense, knows the league and won’t be around long enough to block the pathway for youth players. I suspect next season we will needto make sure we are still in the mix until the New Year and then see if we can go on the rampage again…. But we shouldn’t underestimate what the last few months took out of all of us... game after game was must win with little margin for error.
We could always do what Klopp did. Finish 5th, season ending in March & blame it on fatigue.

Hahaha
 
He knows what he left behind at City, and so he may have a different appreciation now of what it means to play for City and how good he had it first time around.

Thought he played very well against us last season, particularly in the first leg.

I also seem to remember that he visited the CFA for a social call when he was in Manchester last year, so it would appear that he still has some affection for us.
He posted congrats soon after we won last Saturday.
 
Not good enough for Bayern then we say No simples unless we are letting Mahrez, Palmer go without anyone coming in

Don't see Leroy EVER running back & making a great goal scoring tackle
Phil, Jack, Berny if he stays & Alvarez will always get my shout before Leroy
You mean saving and I’m pretty sure I have seen Sane do that. It’s certainly a myth that he never tracked back.
 
No idea, but him and Pep have buried whatever issues they previously may have had.

Leroy would have to take a pay cut to come back here.
The big question is the fee
They won’t want to look like they lost out paying a fortune for him then selling for a small fee
They want walker and cancelo, but I’d say 20 for walker and 50 for cancelo makes them a good 30 mil short
 
Not that I think it would happen, but I would love to have an option like Sané left wing, with Jack as 8. Those 2 on the left side would offer different threats for a defence to deal with
