Let's sign Maddison then. Frankly I preferred and wanted him over Rice. I really do like the play style of the kid that look like Macaulay Culkin in Barcelona but it seems his never gonna come here.

Nope! I think a sticking point our end is if Phillips doesnt want to move on and we`ve had no offer for Bernardo yet?

Ah OK so the usual panic over nothing then. Your rationale makes sense though to me. As we've said all along, Phillips and Bernard both staying leaves us a bit heavy.

Why has everyone given up on Rice? All I've found is a couple of no marks on Twitter saying he prefers Arsenal. Have I missed something bigger?

All the southerners and London centric journos can't fathom that a born and bred cockney would consider living oop north in the slums

Why would that be a sticking point? We have space, are playing more games next year etc. It'd be nice to be absolutely stacked with midfield options rather than just having a superb starting XI & hoping for no injuries
 
As with Jude, Rice needs Pep more than Pep needs Rice. players can work under the best coach in football and take their game to the next level while hunting silverware on a regular basis. Or go to be a main man in a new project under his protege. The pressure at City is greater than the pressure at Arsenal

We only have 3 more games next year, unless we win everything. I thought,not really checked,with Gundogan gone we only have 2 spare spaces, and Kovacic will take 1. I know others will probably leave or be loaned making more room but they haven't gone yet, we haven't got loads of spaces.

Haven't we got 4 free in those circumstances?

Glad I didn't have to name them all, go on! ;)

EDIT:
Don't forget 2 foreign spots are blocked by association trained HG players
(we have 6 instead of the allowed 4: Carson, Walker, Stones, Aké, Phillips, Grealish).
Foden is our only club trained HG.
Lewis, McAtee, Bobb still U21.
