Nolito

[City_Sean]

As a friend said to me, it's evident that we're stockpiling wingers.

Nolito/Sterling on the left.
Navas/Sane on the right.
Nolito and Sane could both play as a false nine if needed.

Nolito's age isn't great, but as he isn't a player reliant on pace, he'll be a good addition for the next few years. His buyout clause is ridiculously cheap too.

If I have understood correctly [emoji106] [emoji106]

That will do for me. Cheers mate.

I hope we get this guy. His movement the other night was excellent. It only took that to make me believe he has inherent abilities. Unlike certain wingers we daren't mention.

For fucks sake take your sterling baiting somewhere else

That's probably the dumbest post I've ever read.

No no... no n' no no... no n' no no... no n' no no-lito!

I hope this rumor has no legs personally, was expecting some more exciting young players to come in, freshen up our attack and put some fear back into the opposition for us.

Cos players over 29 are all instantly useless... dod anyone really think we would buy only 22, 23 year olds? We are looking at stones, sane, fabinho, we were looking at laporte. Also we have our own yougsters. Also, aubameyang is 2 years younger but relies on pace.

Well if you meant navas, why say "daren't mention"? Everyone is mentioning him. You looked like you meant sterling. If you didnt, apologies. If you did, please refrain.
Just woke up so i might be a bit tetchy.

I did mean Sterling but you just go ahead and ignore me there Mr if I'm pissing you off. I'm not going anywhere.

Good enough to start for Spain (and actually playing well) but not good enough for us according to some people on here.

Only simon23 thinks that at the minute. It's obvious to anyone not petty enough to reject a player for being 29 that Nolito is class and would be a good signing.

5 goals in 6 appearences for Spain and 12 goals/7 assists in 27 appearences in La Liga is objectively good and something City have needed from a winger all year. Never mind he fits Pep's style etc.

If we sign Sane and Nolito, I can see Sterling getting more playing time as a striker this season especially considering Kun has had injury issues.

Say we have no money does that mean we have no loli!:))

Why slag off one of our own then, in such a snide way. I'm waiting.

He's right. You banging the same drum over and over makes you look the dumb one, but then you probably know that already.
It's good you're not going anywhere, we all get to be entertained by your shite for a bit longer.

Nah, kelechi will play more. Also sane is very physicl so he can definitely play there.

True but I've watched a ton of Shalke games (Bundesliga in general) and even though Sterling has his issues with finishing, I personally feel that he still has a better end product than Sane. Iheanacho is a budding superstar, but if Aguero goes down even he can't play every minute.

Sergio Busquets: "For €18 million (release clause), you only get one boot of a great player nowadays, so Nolito's price is good."

 

[_OVO_]

What are you guys all crying about? He's a perfect backup/pairing for Raheem. And he's just 14 million, good lord never thought I'll hear those figures being associated with us ever again.

I'm allowing for the possibility that Pep might have some plan in his mind's eye about certain players and how they would complement each other.

Excellent addition if completed.

 

[kupest]

Stop cribbing, At 14 mills we won't get anyone better. You need players who are willing to be part players as well.

Pep will have his plan mapped out six months ago
