We have spent 200m every season for the past three years. We have been paying players to leave our club - Pepe, Aubameyang, Bellerin, Niles, Torriera have all had their contracts torn up and paid off. Were not spending all this money to formulate incomings and outgoings only to wither at 120m for our captain, leader and in my opinion our best player. A sale that would undermine all the time, effort and investment of the past three seasons. We have spent heavily in the past three years, alot more than 120m, yet a sale of Odegaard for 120m would be a dent in the hull and could sink the entire Arteta-Edu project. Therefore, what makes you think 120m would be a competitive offer for Odegaard? 120m wouldn't test us at all, it would be rejected out of hand without consideration.

If it’s not us do you not think Barca, Madrid, psg or even the Saudi’s may come knocking
Once the player wants to go it’s difficult keeping hold of them. Especially if you’re not winning trophies.
If Lego pep don’t win owt this season he will be under immense pressure

Yes hence why I suggested Lukaku on loan from Chelsea, I feel the hate for him but as a rotation option he would do a very good job. I’m not saying he’s the one for us but an option similar who wouldn’t kick up a stink about not playing regularly but be able to come on and see out games. Ideally Liam Delap would have done this role but I don’t think he progressed well enough out on loan and is off to Hull. The reason I kept mentioning Lukaku is he would be available cheap as chips. There must be other beer options but I could t think of names and reasonable price and do think we could do with beefing up squad here.

I should pop onto this thread more often if this is the top quality content I’m missing.

Fucking Lukaku? Lufuckingkaku for fucking fucks sake!!
Can’t we just see if Bony would be willing to come back?
 
Still fascinated by Gomez. Ten starts (cups) and the same sub appearances (league) enough for him?
 
Can anyone work out the details of below

spending to £155.5m. Including academy sales and sell-on clauses, City have recouped £113.75m, with up to £13.6m following in add-ons.

this compares with transfermarket.com saying we have spent 179.10 and sold 67.5 and 45.3 from under 21

Anyone else happy if we go in 1 light and miss the CM.

Given how well we have done when we have a season to choose

Rodri
Dias (although debatable if a season to choose or opportunity within a window)
Haaland

I’m not convinced on the players we are going for and feel we may need to take out time.

Adding players to the best squad in the world is a hard task.

We have done well with 2 so far, 3rd obviously hard to know. But if he is that could be enough to ensure we hit well next season.

As long as you realize you're responding to a single poster who is coming out of left field...City haven't offered 120mil or anything else and I highly doubt that's even crossed anyone's mind at the club. You took the bait,,,
 
Think Nunes and perhaps one more gets done this window with THB being sold for about 10 million Doyle or McAtee probably Doyle going wolves. For like 15 million and think McAtee might get a loan.

Palmer stays
