Have a day off mate. You have to let it go Palmer was never getting a regular place at City and he wanted to go when given the choice.

Ok but what world class players have we created I can't see any? Foden has potential to be world class but he needs consistency

See my reply to king jay. There are loads of them that weren't considered world ckass but left as being considered just that. Oh I forgot Rodders, apparently after his fist season he was shit according to a lot of Blues, never take over from Fern, by the way he's another one who became world class.

I agree, a playmaker isn’t essential if we can get the above. Hopefully Phil gets back to form too.

The playmaker can be the person we target next summer.

Where are the goals coming from? Need a top winger then ,cause current ones aren´t providing much and Haaland will never be an attacker, who creates his own chances.
 
Im going to get hounded at saying this and I normally shoot people down for bringing it up but here we go.

This season we will have Foden and Marmoush operating as 10's in front of Reijnders, Rodri, MGW with overlapping full backs. Thats fine, thats a great squad. We may struggle if Foden has another bad year but we still have Bobb, Echerverri, Savio, Doku etc. Foden has only had 1 bad year so it is what it is.

If he struggles again and a certain team finishes below us and doesn't look like they are developing much I really wouldn't be surprised if we threw money at 1 certain player. If he's still playing well of course.

Palmer.

This season is a full midfield re build and we need multiple players not just one big signing. Im actually looking forward to a team that adds MGW, Reijnders, 2 full backs, maybe 2 GK's and we might add a winger as well. The outgoings all still up in the air.

This isn't FIFA/Football Manager we will rebuild but not change 20 players at once. Wouldn't surprise me if we did a bit of business in Jan as well like this year.

Rodri, Foden, Marmoush in the current squad will add goals to the team. Reijnders and MGW if those deals get done will add and provide goals aswell. Who knows what else we have lined up? Best to judge the window at the end but it's clear what we need. As disappointing as it is to miss out on Wirtz there are other options.

How has done since the start of the year? Not very well. If anyone had such a lean spell in our team (God forbid it be Doku or Savinho) they would be getting pelters on here
 
other clubs seem like to be in a hurry to get deals done very early. wonder if this is taken as a sign by Txiki and Viana to hurry up as well.
Huijsen, TAA, Frimpong, Zubimendi, Tah, Wirtz either all done or very close to be completed.
Chelsea, Newcastle business imo depends largely on if they will be in CL or not. for example if Barcodes iss out I can see them having to sell on of their best (Isak, Guimaraes or Livramento for a brutal overpriced fee), if they get into CL, they might hold onto all their stars and might be able to add some quality too which they couldnt/didnt last summer.

lets get into CL tomorrow and Txiki and Viana should move ahead I prefer Txiki to work on outgoings as we did better in selling for decent fees than the incomings were since the treble. let Viana work his skills on incomings, as Txiki wont be around to hold his hand too long anyway.

getting some decent fees for Stones, McAtee, Walker (haha), Grealish would be nice. also for Ederson from Saudis if the opts to relocate.

I’d also expect a midfield 3 of Rodders, MGW and Reijndeers to bag a fair number between them.

That said though, we do need the wingers to generate more goals and assists, can’t have the same output as this season.

Absolutely. Savinho has no excuse next season - he's had a season to bed. Doku.....I just don't think he's got an end product
 
Doku and Savinho will get better the moment we play faster and with much more confidence . Both need to work on their weaker foot and finishing though. Can’t tell me no one in the coaching stuff is helping them

Yeah fair dos mate definitely agree with molding certain players into world class players just dont think we've got there with the academy players who truly are our own products yet. Barcelona are recently excelling in this model but tbf their finances are fucked so they kind of have no choice
 
Doku-Savinho:

tracking back and pressing is something they need to work on if our play becomes much quicker and games will be more open.

The Academy is the envy of lots of clubs in the world and we make millions of pounds for our club year in and year out. The Barca Academy is the best and we have an awful long way to go to match them but we are doing really well.
