It's Quiet 18 - Wanna ring the bell?

Last thing they need is another winger

They could maybe justify signing a RW. Only have Madueke and Ziyech. Assuming Ziyech leaves.

50 million euros they want

Txiki is offering 30m ;-)

Sam Lee has more burner accounts on here than I thought..

When did their transfer plan even makes sense to begin with.

IIRC Kev also wanted us to get Lukaku instead of Kane or Haaland (also accoriding to @tolmie's hairdoo) so that’s not quite the endorsement you think it is.

The Grealish one worked out to be fair.

Cheers for the info yoda

 

[JewelZee]

The club might want the player that will be real upgrade and not just small margin of being better than we have.

For sure...agree.

"Wouldn't be a factor for many .....". You don't have a problem with that? Many? Not the vast majority, not almost all, but many? Was it the wrong word, in which case he isn't very good at expressing himself, which I would have thought was a minimum requirement for his job, or was it the right word in which case he is a twat for suggesting it. I am going for twat based on his previous output.

Pretty much every survey suggests a good proportion of British people (usually around 20-30%) have a negative opinion of Muslims, so I think it's probably fair.

Kovacic = Gundogan for all intensive purposes. Same quality player.

What a massive disservice to Gundogan. Kovacic isn't even close to the player that Gundogan is.

He's a great player

Doku would be exciting

Yes he is, different but a high level just the same.

 

[TrentGrisham]

Maybe he is but we haven't seen anything yet to say he's the "same quality player"...

 

[Exeter Blue I am here]

Good thing you are not the one handling our transfer then.

Regular expert with your 5 minutes of supporting City, eh?

I think you are confusing me with someone else or are making wrong assumptions, I have nothing against Sam Lee. I just felt that what he wrote in this article was ridiculous. That scenario be a disastrous window and considering Txiki just assembled a treble winning team it feels a bit unrealistic he would all of the sudden have become the worst sporting director in the Premier League.

Your first sentence is fluff as it make no sense re. what I wrote.

"It is conceivable that City could lose Mahrez, Gundogan and Walker — as well as Aymeric Laporte and Joao Cancelo — in this window while bringing in just two players."

At this moment in time (emphasis on this moment in time) he would be quite right.

Cancelo we all know about and barely qualifies to be included in that list, Mahrez was benched for the Bayern QF games onward and pretty much kept for the PL games run in. Laporte got a lot less than that, so we've now got Kovacic & Gvardiol in (Gvardiol is done as far as I'm concerned) and Walker so far is still here (as is Cancelo & Laporte but I'd be surprised if they're still here when the window closes).

So highlighting the sentence you did makes no sense.

I rather be an idiot than know it all expert on internet but in reality they didn't know anything.

Your book was shite Trent. No ball knowledge. Can see why the Independent parted ways.

Edit: That was Trent Crimm. Still standby the statement.

 

[Gumzy97]

Interesting that when asked by Palace fans, their journalists have sort of pushed away with question of Olise having a release clause, none of the journalists have answered yes or no

The world in which football clubs pretend not to know about release clauses is long gone. If he's got one, City will know.
