will be curious if this Toulouse scout that came to city earlier in the year will make any impact over time. Brendan McFarlane. Read about him when news broke he was coming and he seemed pretty impressive.

Were we not linked to this kid sometime back?

Yep, it was when Sane was still a City player. We were linked to him in 2019 and then we were linked again in 2020. Then it was quiet.

Nothing he has proved it all..my point exactly...he has competed in the most intense league competition and won it all al9ngside the CL as well.
Fdj has had chances previously to move to the prem and has turned it down....and it doesn't seem like he is that interested especially as he is generally regarded as one of the most natural fits to a pep team....you would think HD would be on the phone to Pep begging to come...yet he ain't.. whereas Bernardo is looking for more and different challenges.....hence different mindsets

Mate, FDJ chose Barça over other suitors. Barça are a legendary club in the world's top six alongside Real, Bayern, Juvé, Milan, ManUre & Liverpool. By contrast City are relative newcomers to the upper echelons of world football.

He made a choice that most players would've made at the time. Admittedly with the state of Spanish football & Barça's finances, I dare say if he was younger & had the same options available, England's recent treble winners would be up there as an option with Barça.

Barça are a historic club, & City are trying to reach a similar status. In terms of trying to get there, I'd suggest we'd have to win a couple more Champions League titles to reach Barça's lofty status as evidenced by Khaldoon & Pep saying recently this is our longterm aim.

Take Bellingham for instance... Two days ago he stated he chose Real because in his opinion they're the biggest name in world football. Are you seriously claiming that the players at Real, Barça, Bayern, Juvé & Milan lack the ambition to test themselves at the highest level because they opted to play in Spain, Germany & Italy over England?

I agree and I disagree. Those squads are big in terms of history, but what does that matter to a player who was not involved in any of it and is still looking to win something big currently. Although there are no guarantees, right now if you're looking to win big things City has to be your first choice if given the opportunity. Take note I'm saying first choice, not only choice.

Might sound crazy saying this but I think we will see Haaland become the best player in the world next season. I reckon he smashes the goals he scored last season. Especially if that new offside rule comes into play.

Could see him hit 40 odd in the premier league. Just feel like it’s his second season he now knows how we play, he’s going to explode next season. Second season under Pep is normally where we see the best of a player

I won’t be betting on the 40+ PL goals again……..big bastard done me over on that one haha

If this kid is 75% the player Carlos was during his career, he will be a good player to take a chance on for us

As for the MEN having an advertisement regarding an article about pregnant women, if you have been spying on my mate's adult entertainment viewing habits, please stop. :-)

I see they managed to get the word ‘snub’ in.

Was replying to someone as to why people on here are into Lavia so much, given he's probably not at the required level right now.

You're going to get hell from the Lavia fan boys/girls. They are as weird as the Sanè fan boys/girls but a little more normal than the Bosnians who showed up when Džeko signed with us.
