Really? 2 years left on his contract, had only one good season, and that most 9f that only since DeZerbi arrived. Only played 1 season in the PL, has never played in a european competition. They bought him for 2.5m and there doesn't seem to be much interest in him from elsewhere. 25m at most.

Could be a decent utility player to cover till we find someone to properly replace Mahrez. Beyond that, quite a lot of overexcitement because a name has been mentioned.

We're selling kids who've never kicked a football professionally for £15-20m and you think Mitoma is worth £25m at most?
 
Is Mitoma good enough ?, he seemed to hit a purple patch of scoring goals when very few outside of Brighton fans knew much about him & then you add the rigmarole of dealing with Tony Bloom. It's a shame that Solly March is 29 as he would be a better fit on the right wing with his assists.

What fee would you do?

That's a tough one. I think Tolmie suggested it would be a bit of a swap deal. Essentially, we give them Palmer + money for one of their players. I don't know what is Palmer worth, though. 30m quid?

Similar to Cucurella, what players are worth is irrelevant & it's more a case of what teams are willing to pay. We'd be lucky to get him for £50m & walk away when that gets rejected.

I'm fairly confident £50m could be enough. He only has 2 years left on his deal. He's just turned 26 as opposed to Caicedo who's 20. They have a lot of cover in those wide attacking areas. And they want Palmer.

Think its a lot of money for a player who in my opinion is no better than Palmer, its just that he's playing regularly in a side that has some very good players but not world class. He can play right wing but is predominantly a left winger.
I'm not one for bringing Leroy back, but think he would be more adaptable on the right.

For me, Mitoma has been one of the best wingers in the league.
6th most creative player in the PL last season, having created 1.49 chances per 90 minutes. 7 goals, 5 assists in 33 games. 96th percentile for successful dribbles as well, so that puts him as one of the very best dribblers. Palmer is leagues below as it stands, IMO.

seeing as how Cucurella negotiations went after a good season, there’s no way they demand anything less than north of £80m for an attacking player, managed to squeeze £60m + for a left back so it’s set a bad precedent.

Sadly, I think you are spot on. They aren’t in need of the cash and probably stacking up the squad for European football too. I think City gotta look elsewhere or be prepare to spend loads
