Yeah, I think his goal all along was to get to a 'top club's. Real, Barca, Bayern, City etc. And this was the first opportunity to do so and he wants to take it


Can't fault a player who wants to challenge himself against the best. Hope it all works out for both teams. We get Paquetta and you guys get 1 or 2 of our players you clearly are interested in.

Probably Phillips and a loan for Palmer would be a great swap.

I think. But what do I know.

Each to their own. I shirked at the thought of us paying £100m for Declan Rice, I'd happily see us pay £80m for Paqueta. A far better footballer, although obviously a different position.

Of course it is each to his own, that is the beauty of football, and you right about Rice, but at £80 million i would expect a first team player is he, or i would expect someone who has strengths we do not have, does he? Is Paqueta an admission of failure to attract our priority signings?

There have been two stories claiming it, from sources 'close to the player'. Might be complete bollocks, but unfortunately that as a supposed reason is very much out there. As is often the case.

I think he gives us some more creativity through the centre. De Bruyne is the world number 1 in that respect but having someone take a bit of the weight off of his shoulders will see us good.

Between all these transfers, and all the madness, i became a father lads. A blue has been born, in the town of Manchester. A little Manc. A little blue moon on the rise.

Yeah really silly, he is an attacking play playing in a dull defensive team, Managers style that has just lost it`s best defensive player, guess who is going to have to take up the slack.
Of course you may have a better reason.
