Savinho | City reject Spurs approach

[Lavinda Past]

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!

Tevez was worth every penny.

 

[Lavinda Past]

Those attributes he has with 21 are insane.
If he leaves now he will end up at Madrid or Barca in 2-3 years like super star.

And good luck to him. Players come, players go. We've sold better players than Savinho and got by perfectly well.

 

[Lavinda Past]

I agree, should be the first name on the team sheet. Did you see Savs performance in the FA Cup Final? That will stay with me forever. Such a talent.

I can't believe that he's not been lined up as Pep's successor. He's got the lot.

 

[Sam69]

He must not leave for less than the price of Cunha, Mbeumo, or Diaz, i.e., at least €75 million. Continue the speculation and only sell them in the last few days before the transfer window closes. They are forced to recruit and pay after Son's departure and Maddison's injury.

 

[xmusampa]

If I could play a team of 11 savinhos I would. He's that good at all facets of the game.

bar slotting the ball in that net thingamajiggy !

 

[King Jay]

The trojan horse of the forum pipes up again - neither clever nor subtle.

You must really hate being told the truth eh. He ain’t no LW and we’ve seen it countless times.

 

[Lord Blue]

i voted yes, but i'd sell just about anyone for the "right price".

the right price for me is £75m minimum

pretty daft poll without a steer on the price.

some might think the right price is 50m minimum others might think its 80m minimum

Better we had some other options in the vote like
- would you sell him for £50m or more
- would you sell him for £60m or more
- would you sell him for £70m or more
- would you sell him for £80m or more
- no

And good luck to him. Players come, players go. We've sold better players than Savinho and got by perfectly well.

Arguably we've not sold a higher potential player that early in their career though.

It's being so willing to sell Alvarez or Palmer to accommodate the guys who are still so intent on running down their contracts that got us to where it did last season.

 

[lonestay]

Hey can understand if he wants a move, what I can't understand is that his advisers, and presumably Sav himself have identified Spursy as that team !!

 

[oldius]

Everyone has a price.
£50m + a 50% sell on clause.

I would like him to stay as I think he has serious potential.
If he is not up to compete with Cherki, Foden, Doku, Bobb, Echeverri, Marmoush, Mukasa and McAidoo, and that is some serious competition, then fair enough.

 

[Craig]

Hey can understand if he wants a move, what I can't understand is that his advisers, and presumably Sav himself have identified Spursy as that team !!

Suppose if he wants to play every week and under a decent manager it’s not a bad move for him at all. He’ll also get to play Champions League football as well. If he kicks on like he has the potential to he’ll get a move back to a top side again within a couple of years.

I hope he stays. He can be frustrating but i think the natural ability is there to become an absolutely top player. His touch is up there with most players. He’s got a nice turn of pace, great natural skill. If his finishing wasn’t so bad last season he’d have posted very good numbers. Going off his goals the year before in Spain i think that side will come. He’s too good technically to not start to finish better in time.

 

[diamond geezer]

"Would you sell him at the right price?"

Yes, of course, isn't that the definition of the right price?

 

[jrb]

You know when City agree to talks with another club about one of our players, the transfer is pretty much certain to be done.

 

[Mcfcok1971]

Strange one for me, our new players normally need a season at least,some of our top top players struggled first season. I thought he had a decent season,yet here most are calling crap

 

[HolisticJim]

?? They were nearer relegation than CL places last season.

I'd agree that he's worth 50M+ though.

Qualified for the CL through their Euopa League win.

 

[Coatigan]

The reason we are entertaining it is because the lad doesn't want to be here. Hope that helps.

To be fair, we don't know that.

 

[Bez]

Hey can understand if he wants a move, what I can't understand is that his advisers, and presumably Sav himself have identified Spursy as that team !!

Maybe Spurs because he wants to live in London. That is a guess on my part. If that's the case, he's not leaving for football reasons and so he should go.

 

[Coatigan]

If Stones and Akanji had left you think we wouldn't have gone and bought two CB's?

Hes not a fall guy, hes quite simply not done enough to become someone we are that bothered about.

Now Bobb is back he has seemingly lost his head and decided he wants out to run to London with his pal Richarlison. Good luck to him.

I don't think we would have, no. Would have likely kept Reis and that imo would have been it.

That really is a lot of conjecture on Savinho's intentions.

 

[Gray]

In my opinion Savinho is better than Phil in all positions they could play.
Dribbling, pace, shooting.

Phil had a shocking season but didn’t see Savinho step up to the plate.

 

[nicko]

I would be happy to get $60M for him. Don’t think he’s got what we need. In Ability or attitude.
