Gianluigi Donnarumma | Done deal according to Romano

[Coatigan]

Maybe we are showing interest in Donnarumma to pressure Ederson into signing a new contract

Not sure there have even been claims of him having been offered one.

 

[Tevez32mcfc]

Teams dont press us at the back like they used to though?

Exactly my thoughts. Teams almost seem to block the avenues for the pass rather than run directly at Ederson/Ortega over the course of last season. Wised up to the fact that its us almost trying to lure them into a trap.

It appears our name is being used to show that he is wanted by a number of clubs. When he goes to the rags the press can say he chose them over us.

Do you seriously expect a goalie of his magnitude to not bother playing in the CL , something he has been used to for bloody years.
The mindset of some on here is bordering on stupidity.

Preliminary agreement Donnarumma / City.

A deal around 35M is being considered.

Valid point actually. Everyone just sits in their low block immediately. Didn't help last year that we were so slow to get to the final third.

I want to be a professional footballer. 12 million for standing on the line and saving some shots.

Remember the Ronaldo thread? lol

At least the JFE thread galvanised us.

 

[Man_City_Loyal]

You have absolutely no idea what he has or hasn't been promised

I will put my house on it that he's been promised to be the main keeper

/. €/!

Pep Guardiola had a constructive exchange with the goalkeeper.

The club wishes to negotiate a deal for €35M.

️ La Stampa

Enzo Raiola values his player at €25M with one year left on his contract.

PSG is asking for €50M.

️ La Repubblica

 

[argyle]

He refused a new contract before Christmas fella.

Ah ok, I didn't know this.

I want to be an actor. £30m for just saying some lines that someone else wrote.

I want to run the PL act like a useless cock and get paid for it

Here comes the noise.

Imagine claims that the Ederson fee is agreed will follow quickly

You could get around 7 million a year and not save shots, like Onana.

 

[St.Pauli support]

Unless we switch to how PSG built up from the back. Vitinha drops deep so he's between the two central defenders, he takes the short pass takes Donnarumma completely out of the build up. Then you've got the two ball playing defender, 8 and 6 together so even if pressed there's a way out.

That means you can have the amazing shot stopper ability without the weakness of his build up play. Watch PSG clips Donnarumma is rarely involved. Vitinha is the outlet

Look, what a tiny little fix!
And who would be perfect to save his ACL ridden legs?
Rodders. Life can be so easy...

But no, BM taught us it would destroy our extremely complicated 'system' as City w/o Eddie was unthinkable. Pff.

 

[Rodri’s ACL]

La Stampa: Man City reaches agreement with Donnarumma for €12 million per year. City wants to negotiate with Paris for €35 million.

I don't care how much a footballer or anyone else earns for what they do as long as they aren't a cock about it.

Joe did have a tendency to welly the ball into the car park to be fair.

Thought he was a great keeper tbh
