Savinho | City reject Spurs approach

King Jay said:
Also the perfect example how easy it is for him to get into such goal opportunities. Sounds dumb but he isn’t far away from turning into a monster.

Yes but the same could be said by almost every player. Doku would be better than every winger in the world if he had better output. Nicolas Jackson would be world class if he could finish. Rico Lewis would be the next Kimmich if he became more physical.
 
Ok. Add up all your figures for every player. See what it comes to and see what is left for the hundreds of other employees that work for City and see if they match what the accounts publish. Maybe we have been fiddling the books.

I think he might have something but 1 league goal(against a relegated team) is pathetic

It might be 1 year too early but anything north of 60mil then I’d be biting thier arm off at the shoulder. But I would keep if bids stay around 45

I’d sell Doku before I sold him but no one wants Doku, yet, so it’s not a choice we have

Wide players have been pivotal to our success, I don’t think the ones we have are anywhere near the level

Those are official club figures!

But I preferred it back when Kun Aguero/ David Silva and Vinnie Kompany led the club at 240k a week and we said we would never give anyone's Tevez's wages again!

I mean Tevez made 400k a week.. in 2011-12!

WTF are you on about?
The club doesn’t release “official figures”.
No club does

So Bob at 22 is not the finished article but Savinho at 21 is??

Listen, I'm not saying Sav is the answer, alls I'm saying is make it make sense!

Bobb is 17 yr old and was the best winger in La Liga 2 years ago!

Based on last season, Savinho is not good enough because he has no end product
Bobb is not the finished article, but you feel give him more game time then you will get more goals

I can understand fans not going overboard on Bobb yet, however he has already shown glimpses of his potential eg his goal against Newcastle in the League and he was excellent against the Rags in the charity shield last year. I genuinely think if he had n't of got injured, Pep would have given him plenty of game time last season.
 
My two cents:

There’s 3 scenarios

We keep him and he carries on his development

We sell him but not replace him and pin our dreams on Bobb and Doku

We sell him but replace him with whoever is out there.


I’d much rather we just keep him and not complicate the squad planning. As far as I’m concerned this window was going pretty well. All we needed was a RB.

Selling him and not replacing him sounds like something we’ve done too many times in the past. All the options given are not perfect.
Bobb broke his leg and has played 900 mins. He’s a project player himself.
Doku is has injuries and is still frustrating despite his efforts.
Bernardo as a RW option in 2025 doesn’t require me to say anything else
We have no idea which Foden we are going to get next season.
Cherki is the same age of Savio. He’s my favourite player but he may need time aswell.

Selling a 21 year old after 1 year in a horrible season puts a horrible taste in my mouth. The script can only be flipped in 2 ways.
There is some sort of buy back like what we should’ve done with Palmer
His replacement is simply a better player than him in this current stage.
I could care less about the fee, I’m not an accountant. What I do care about is seeing my team rack up trophies. All I’m concerned about is who replaces him if sold and how he elevates this squad.

Desire Doue
Micheal Olise

Would be only names I could consider replacing Savio. 100 mil or so should be enough to get the ball rolling.

One must worry about how these departures are shaping up. I’ll wait until the end of the window to have my final say. I trust Viana and I believe he will do the right thing

These clowns believe any old shite, always makes me piss when they say this players on this and this one on that, players salarys are confedential, just cause some bellend journalist or a no mark on twitter says it or some two bob website proclaims they know, these herberts believe it, sadly it's now the world we live in

from the game time from last season Savinho was not good enough. It's that simple
Nobody will know if Bobb had the same game time as Savinho had his stats would be better, but the one thing is Bobb would not throw his toys out of the pram and turn off when he thinks it was a foul

Bobb is going to be a very good player given he gets game time at City So if Savinho goes to spurs then lets see the stats at the end of the season

It has been. But I think Pep is looking at us playing more direct. There's still the endless recycling going on. Perhaps Pep recognizes that and figures Savinho is the odd man out? I don't know. Perhaps Savinho has been told or recognizes that he will now be a situational or bench player and he wants out? I can't blame him for that. Its frustrating that he does not have more production that leads to a finishing product. ESPN is reporting that City are reluctant to deal him to Spurs. Lots of unanswered questions.

I think we’ll massively regret him leaving. 100% he’s going to be a star!

The thing is, Manchester City and Pep don't have time for him to develop, the truth is you need to hit the ground running and nail your place, 48 games is enough for Pep to judge a player. if somebody is better or a change of system by Pep then out of the players City have on the books Savinho is the weakest and easy to let go

Same could be said about Doku, personally I’d let him go as well
