Rico Lewis | Set to sign a new 5-year contract (pg33)

[urban genie]

Lewis when played as an out and out Right Back is better than Nunes, unless we have a replacement it would be daft to sell him

 

[mexico1970]

Academy product is neither here nor there. If any player is playing poorly they can expect criticism on the match day thread. Abuse no, but criticism yes.

If you popped into Tesco and you got shit service and you complained and maybe left a bad review complaining that this person didn't do their job correctly and that staff member was reprimanded.

Some on here would say just complaining about a member of the staff would be abuse, it's a fucking weird take.

Me "I think Lewis has had a bad game".

Cuck "Why do you hate him?".

 

[manimanc]

Did he move into our old place on Lord lane?

Couldn't tell you mate, just know it's around Daisy Nook.

Strange they are targeting him when they have aina at right back. I know he will miss a few games but surely they can cover with what they have a for a few games.

If they offer 30m, I'd take it

 

[Dr Jacoby]

£40m with a buyback clause would be smart business.

Footmercato in France broke this news 3 days ago what’s happening with the journalists close to the club they are all slow and behind.

In an earlier post I said keep him another season. But I've been thinking since that he's had 4 seasons to establish himself and he hasn't. Let's be honest he's a terrible RB as he's often out of position. And when he's in position he can't tackle and easily gets barged off the ball.

He's better in midfield. Quite neat and tidy but many of his passes are short and safe. He's a good player, just not good enough for us either as a starter or coming off the bench as he doesn't influence games and isn't a game changer.

If the right offer of around 40m with a sell on and buy back clause I'd sell, but we must go out and buy a proper RB.

The United model of yesteryear on full display, we have all cried at the inflated prices they’ve commanded for squad players over the years, brown, Phil Neville, O’Shea, fletcher, and many many more; the right price and we are compelled to deal imo; we’ve created a better model from untried academy players, a few bitten back naturally, however, the Mcatee and Lewis’s have 100 games plus in the negotiations, sad but a level below what we command and they’ll have excellent careers outside the city bubble…

 

[IrishBloodEnglishHeart]

Any club that's had over a month to come to us to negotiate and is leaving it this late, I'd tell to fuck off.

3 seasons as he was just 17 when he made his debut. I'd personally keep him.

Edit: with Walker in front of him for the first 2 seasons at that.

 

[blue b4 the moon]

I voted yes but, only IF it's the correct deal for City.

I'd be more than happy for him to be a squad player for 'life'.

 

[chesterbells]

Yeah but abuse is clearly allowed in the matchday forum

To be clear mate, I’m not advocating that.

Though I do think there’s a discussion to be had about that. One person’s criticism is someone else’s abuse.

The other thing is, I think supporters on a matchday thread need to be cut a bit more slack than at other times. Just like at the ground, when the match is on, and you’re on edge, you say all sorts of stuff, and sometimes in a way you might not once you’ve calmed down afterwards.

 

[bhayes]

If there is a buy back clause and sell on fee, and we buy another RB that is better then I am fine with this

 

[manimanc]

ITK on this one mate?

Aye.

 

[kippaxwarrior]

Any club that's had over a month to come to us to negotiate and is leaving it this late, I'd tell to fuck off.

So late?

There's 17 days left in the window

 

[chesterbells]

Needs game time sell him with buyback let him get some development time in a first squad somewhere

Good suggestion. I can’t see him getting much playing time as a starter this season, injuries to other players not withstanding.

 

[dhruvblue]

If we go into next season with Matheus Nunes as our only "right back" then we're fucking idiots.

I don't want to hear "I think Khusanov can do a job there" or any similar bullshit.

We needed one this summer anyway but I was under the impression the club can't identify one. If that's still the case then I have absolutely no idea why we'd be entertaining any offers for the two we have.

Nunes too comes under Can do the job category

 

[oldius]

This is a player I would not sell. FINAL!

 

[MCFC1993]

£40m plus £5m-£10m in add ons and a buy back.

Only if we have a HG right back lined up.

 

[vuoso1993]

He’s gone I think his insta story was a cryptic one . Bit gutted tbh as I think he is class player
