Not this again

 

[Colin Bells Boots]

City Xtra posting shit for gullible/needy/knowalls.

Is this more accurate perhaps ?

 

[TinFoilHat]

Not this again

I'm getting fed up of seeing their clickbait on my Google news feed.

"Pep is leaving!"

*Click*

"Pep and the squad are heading..."

"Real Madrid want Haaland"

*Click*

"According to Marca. City are yet to receive any official offer from real..."

EchiMessi looked promising at the CWC and I would like to see him developed here. If the coaches think maybe a season away might help like they did with Sav then who am I to argue.

They are a news aggregator, not sure what you want them to do other then cease to do that…

That’s it, if people use City xtra they need to understand what they are using and look at the source being repeated. Then they can decide whether to take seriously or not, usually not would be my suggestion. I can count on one hand sources I take seriously and one of those is City themselves.

Disappointed to see him being loaned out, which makes his substitute appearance in the Cup Final even more baffling?

Yes i want that

So anyone who’s ever come on as a sub can’t leave?

We were chasing a goal in the last moments of a final, it was a throw of the dice from Pep to top off a shite season

My thinking exactly.

Baffling and extremely irritating if he left on loan after making his debut in the FA Cup Final.

Understandable if we were beating Watford 6-0 in 2019, but not when we were losing and desperate for a goal.

And his last kick in anger was that great free kick in the CWC.

 

[skillman]

Not a chance in hell we are selling him. Talk of a loan to help his development but i'd love to see him stay and play with this young side. He's already shown in the few games we've seen him he has the potential to be a top top player.

I love Pep. But can't see Echeverri getting a fair whack under him this season and he probably knows that.

Bringing him on in the final was more a message to others (Grealish mainly) as opposed to Pep's willingness to have him in and around the first time. Especially with new signings and Bobb coming back.

As long the club still employ Bernie, Gundo and Kovacic then I can't see how players like Echeverri make their mark. They play different positions to him but their game time has a knock on effect of everybody else.

Chelsea’s young 18yo Brazilian star Estevao looking the business v Leverkusen tonight …. good job he didn’t sign for us, otherwise he’d be off to Girona with his compatriot Vitor Reis.

Typical City!

Very good.
It is true that Chelsea don't use the loan system.

That last paragraph is actually quite depressing.

We suffered an awful three months last season, thanks mainly to Rodri's absence and our injury prone defenders repeatedly getting injured (Stones went off twice after five minutes) plus an overall sense that maybe 3-4 players had all had one season too many

If we do start games with Bernardo alongside Gundogan then we'll continue to drop silly points,. because you can guarantee that Stones and Ake will both miss lots of games.

Yeah agreed and that’s the arguement for him going out on loan if he isn’t going to play. The suggestion he might be sold though I find absurd and there’s no way we are letting such a talent who’s only been at the club 5 months leave for good.

They even sold madueke to make him part of the group. He is a big talent. Can see him doing trouble this season .

 

[Otamendi's Beard]

Has the potential to be a superstar but Doku, Savinho, Foden, Cherki and Bobb are all ahead of him. All players with excellent ability.

To get the minutes he needs to be selected for the world cup he has to go on loan.

How do silva, Kovacic Gundogan impact his game time? If you’d said Foden cherki marmoush Bobb you might have made sense

The chat paragraph makes little sense in the context of Echeverri none of those players impact echeverris game time. Even less stones Akanji and Ake?
