Why do City need to formally deny anything? Think this bloke has spent way too much time on talkshite

He’s literally making a basic statement that relates to any transfer. If it’s not true the club denies it. Nothing to be/get riled up about

The quotes from PSG Super Cup press conference suggest he is leaving but no club is mentioned.

Why don't we train Ederson to make saves like Donnarumma? Or Trafford to play like both?

Keepers who play like Ederson with their feet will be few and far between - he's not the best in the world at it because he tried it once. In the same way, Donnarumma is much better at the usual keeper stuff, arguably best in the world.

Question is whether Donnarumma's footwork is good enough for a Pep team. I'm not convinced, as it would require a complete change in philosophy to one he's never played wherever he's managed

You can't teach a keeper to make saves. I think that's more of a reflex/instinct.

Footwork is something that can be coached. And it's not as if Donnarumma can't pass a ball.

He was excellent in the champions League for PSG. He single handedly won them at least 3 or 4 games.
 
Pretty similar mindset from me on this deal and the Rodrygo one. I’d be seriously excited if we sign them because they’re two world class players in their positions respectively, but at the same time I’m more than happy and won’t lose any sleep if we stick with what we have and neither materialise.

I’m calm. just ready for the football to start again now.
 
If this gets done by the weekend and Ederson leaves , who starts against Wolves? Will Pep throw Trafford straight in

You'll not find me arguing against us playing quicker more direct football, I've wanted to see that since the treble win but Peps ideas dont seem to suggest we'll see that, if teams pressed us high I'd wager we would still see us trying to play through it and allowing teams to reset once we break through, it'll just take longer and be riskier to get us into a position to face 10 men on the edge of their box.


I am 100% saying Ederson is unique. There's nobody close to him. We see it when Ortega has stepped in, we'll see it when Trafford plays and if Ederson goes, we'll see it weekly.

Fair do’s NJ but I’ll back my experience over yours.
 
Are there still rumours that he’s going to United or is it all city rumours now
