Leroy? Did you learn anything from the Gundo experiment,? You don't go back. Turkish teams are looking at Leroy these days..
You are complaining about Marmouah only ro suggest Leroy.
Jesus!
In terms of a January window this would be perfect. Full rebuild in the summerbar haaland we have no goal threat in our midfiled and atrack so yes we lack goals
half the games we have fucked up defensively.late on we should have converted 3-4 chances or opportunities and been in no danger of losing games.
we do ned a RB, CB and DM but we also need another option bar haaland
marmoush - goals and options
kushunov - shores up defence
luiz - Loan deal with juve to take the burden off gundo and kova.
Unfortunately we'd need someone really quick behind that to clean up (as was sadly pointed out by bbc after WH) - which we currently don't have.In the attacking 4 behind Haaland, would be interesting to see classical wingers wide, and players who can cut inside in the 2 spaces behind Haaland.
So something like:
Savio LW
Marmoush LAM
Foden/Bobb RAM
Doku RW
He's not even here yet and some are binning him off.Not good enough IMO.
Yeah we’ll know it’s on/close when,A) they add wages and fee together and claim we are overpaying,B) is he really what City need and he may struggle to adapt to the rigours of the premier league..It's getting louder :-)
Even Sly reporting it.
Not like you to be negative. Everything ok?Not good enough IMO.
The only problem with this is you want to go for players for "free" if we cannot get the mega talents like Wirtz or Musiala, and that just cannot be out mindset, that will hamper progress.Not remotely comparable. Applying a blanket statement to everybody because one signing hasn't gone as well as expected is daft and you know it. Would we decline the opportunity to bring back Cole palmer because you don't go back?
Not complaining about Mamoush either, I literally said I wouldn't be unhappy with him. I simply said I want us to go after the very best and if we can't get them and have to look a few rungs down the ladder, I'd sooner sign somebody on a free transfer and add that money to pursuing top targets in other areas. I'm not saying sane over mamoush I'm saying Sane and £60-80m over Mamoush.
Well of course we still need a CM.Unfortunately we'd need someone really quick behind that to clean up (as was sadly pointed out by bbc after WH) - which we currently don't have.
Kova is great, but he's no speed merchant. Looking at the 4 is great on paper, but doesn't improve our current situation.
All good buddy.Not like you to be negative. Everything ok?
Agree that we need to be looking at other areas of the squad as a priority but it could just be that some deals are easier/quicker to get over the line than others. Obviously, we're not at the stage yet even with this player but if we do sign him in this window, I'm sure the club are working on getting players in other positions in too this month.He's not even here yet and some are binning him off.
Wouldn't be my first Jan signing - as we're not desperate for forward thinking players - but if Pep thinks he's decent and can be improved then so be it
If we end up signing this lad in January best thing about it for me is that it absolutely erases any doubt about a potentially serious outcome of 115. Zero chance we would do this deal now if there was even a chance we were about to get relegated.
Does he play the piano?Reminds me of Alexis Sanchez. His technique and the way he strikes a ball he's similar
By that logic, if we don't sign anyone will you begin to panic?If we end up signing this lad in January best thing about it for me is that it absolutely erases any doubt about a potentially serious outcome of 115. Zero chance we would do this deal now if there was even a chance we were about to get relegated.
