A few headline snippets for you all to chew over..

Bernie and Walker both offered new deals which they are mulling over

Gvardiol not as advanced as some seem to think.

Rice bid as widely described, confidence that we'll get him.

Leipzig most likely destination for Cancelo as it stands

Arsenal want Laporte but we won't sell him to them.

Kill it in what way? Improved bud or charm offensive ?

Rice would need to make up his mind.

Same situation I’d heard for ages now. Rice was badly screwed by Chelsea in the past and now there are offers on the table he won’t wait for anything that may not come to fruition. Basically he won’t say no to Arsenal if they can get a deal done and city can’t. If city and West Ham can shake quickly he’ll be here in a heartbeat but he isn’t going to say no to Arsenal if they get sorted first.

Depends how you view it...big moments Yaya as you say and KDB.....

Best footballer...ability to control/dictate a game on his own, sublime first touch, skill and control along with vision....David Silva for me...so so consistent - an 8 out of 10 every game and in some games obviously more......He was underrated in some areas as well (defending/tackling and his aggression) - best passer of a ball Ive ever seen and I include KDB in that

Same definition for me, the ability to dictate a game. DS no doubt had that ability in spades. For me its what makes Messi the best footballer I've seen. The ability to have a massive impact on the match every time he stepped on the pitch, the consistent greatness. Some are jaded by currency bias, but if we're talking peak Messi I have never seen anyone that dominant, not even Maradona.
Peak Yaya was a sight to behold...

Yes there are some clubs who are almost impossible to deal with like Napoli and a handful of extremely clever negotiators like Tony Bloom, but if we come up against most others we usually come out on top even if it means walking away sometimes.

Bloom wasn't that clever when he agreed to AMA's buyout clause, however. I'll put Levy up there with Napoli's De Laurentiis in terms of being difficult...

Laporte would be a substantial upgrade on Gabriel. Him and Saliba would be an excellent partnership

So they can fuck right off

Isn't he primarily a LW? I don't think he has played much on the right, and he is right-footed as well. I would personally prefer someone more established. Otherwise, we could have only Mahrez as an established RW, and whereas he is capable of being world-class, I wouldn't want to rely on him most weeks.

He's been used on the right for Italy in recent games...he does have plenty of hunger in him to go along with an impressive skillset.
