Antoine Semenyo | Prefers to join City - Ornstein (p73)

[simon23]

He's mastered that sterling back post run. Just watching a few of his goals and assists he's always at the back post.

was thnking the same...none of our current wide players seem to attack the back post very much at all....Sterling was so good at this and got so many goals from it ...not sure why doku and Sav dont do it

 

[Blue Llama]

I think its horses for courses.....Semenyo wont play every week.....where we have park the bus teams he may be on the bench.

Spot on. We have Doku for those tactics.

Feels like we’ve wasted a lot of money on Marmoush

Not sure I agree, his form at the end of last season was what got us top 4 and injuries and doku's form have stopped him from getting minutes

Anderson - Forests best midfielder
Guehi - Crystal Palace best defender
Semenyo - Bournemouth best attacker
Tino Livramento - Solid right back
Wharton - Crystal palace stand out midfielder

which end of league are we planning to be ;)

 

[Kippax77]

Judging by the reaction on X/Twitter, we’ve ruined a lot of people’s Christmas

What a signing then.... and that's before he's even kicked a ball for us

 

[Saddleworth2]

according to TS, United were favourites but pulled out as 'they didn't want to break their wages structure'. He he :-).

 

[Gumzy97]

That is something we have missed - none of our current wing options get into the box like that

Was watching Semenyo first goal against Liverpool, it is exactly the type of goal sterling would score. Ball across the box runs behind the fullback to score.

If we sell Marmoush please to anyone but a PL rival. I have a feeling that dippers might be coming for him because he played with Ekitike and can improve them.

Fuck me. They peddle that shite and are complicit in it.

 

[Goodlove]

He’s looks decent, but I’m not sure who he starts ahead of or who loses out. Posters will say we need a big squad, but pep has rarely rotated players when fit and in form

This is my take on it. Not quite sure who he replaces when all are fit. Saying that he started the season bang in form and looks good. I’d be delighted with this signing. Sign him and Arsenal start shitting it

 

[Saddleworth2]

Well they could hardly tell the truth. "He is going to a club who have the best manager to have ever lived and he will hoover up multiple trophies"

yeah them champions league places werent vital

Would like to keep him as he is a quality player and we will make the sane mistake as alveraz

another on a million pound aweek then

I think Doku and Savinho are not goal hungry , Sterling wanted to score loads, Semenyo is the same he's got a journal from one of his interviews he wants 15 goals this season. Aiming to hit double figures consistently. Says he wants to score more and improve his goal scoring every season.

Makes sense as he was a striker first before a winger.

Can’t see it.

Only spurs linked so far not exactly rivals lol

 

[chaddblue]

I see the red cartel fans are taking this well

 

[ManCitizens.]

@slbsn mentioned we can’t spend big until we shift some players.

I might be wrong but i believe the Cherki, Ait Nouri and Reijnders deals were all in last years accounts?

I’m not saying we will go for Anderson as well in January but the wiggle room may be there.

 

[Georgian Maestro]

Not the same type of player, but in the same position as Silva. Get him now so he’s up to speed with Pep’s system for next year when Bernardo goes. Sounds like good squad planning to me so we don’t make the same mistakes as last year

Silva has been playing central midfield all season

 

[Alexia_Ko]

Love how some people make up unfounded bizarre narratives and then complain about their own made up nonsense. LMAO

But that’s how it works on here. Every single project player that stays at City gets one season off before they have to be world class. It won’t just suddenly change because of Diomande especially if he costs more. No one cares on here that Savio, Doku and Bobb are young, they want them to be consistent now.
