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

[Utter bobbins]

im all aboard never signing anyone from the premier league mid table ranks ever again, doubly so if english

Nunes, Philips, Bony, Rodwell, Scott Sinclair, Grealish (for the price), Trafford, Ait Nouri (so far), Kovacic.

basically a fucking disaster since mahrez and maybe Ake

Nunes Kova Ait Nouri Trafford seriously

Kovacic has been good, Trafford has been good for a 2nd choice, it’s RAN’s first season, Nunes has been brilliant at RB, Grealish was a treble winner. So essentially we’re looking at Philips and pre Pep signings, not bad.

Not so common after all lol
The things folk say on here cracks me up sometimes

Next time I take info off here I will double check it first lol!!

I feel like our record when head to head vs United for players isn't good. Mostly because they end up overpaying wages when pressed and we generally walk.

then they can have him ANY player that would prefer to go there for an easy ride than come in and play under the best manager in the world wouldnt survive a day under pep anyway

Sounds like Sky teeing it up for “even with City’s interest he just couldn’t turn down interest from the world’s biggest club” wankathon, followed by a month of the rags being described as title contenders for 26/27.

Yep. But look how that turned out.

 

[TheBlueCat]

If we sign him, well OK, I’ll get behind him.
I don’t think we need him and definitely feel we have other priorities.
If he goes to another club I’m really not arsed one bit. I don’t think he’s particularly good.

Anyone know if a piano has been delivered to the swamp lately?

agree. I'm just thinking off the top of my head, Maguire, sanchez, Ronaldo. Probably Pogba as well. Fred I guess. Mostly we've done well to avoid them lol.

 

[Dax777]

I think it’s fair to say it’s highly unlikely we end up getting him in January especially given there seems to be about 6 teams after him. We rarely come out on top in scenarios like this.

Not too fussed either way to be honest, really not sure if he makes much of a difference for us.

Oh well. We'll make do with Better options in the summer :)

 

[Tomblue]

yeah literally every player we have is a cast off that nobody else wanted *rolls eyes

What a strange take from what I said.

 

[Blue warrior]

Romano been fairly quiet on this I would have thought he would been updating way more if City where in the driving seat.

I guess because it's still 22nd December.

Possibly mate but you know what he’s like whipping up the attention to his media channels $$$

 

[waspish]

If it was the rags he was going to it be all over the media if he made the decision already! Seems mad that they announce he making decisions today! I doubt that myself

 

[rice10]

Whilst I certainly wouldn’t say no to Semenyo I would suggest that it still feels like we are short at centre midfield and in defence.

The forward positions seem to be the only ones where pep has some sort of trust for the back up players but midfield and defence there appears to be none.

Having said that our bench on Saturday looked so bereft of attacking back up that maybe it does need to be done!!

 

[Thaksins Love Child]

Meh

 

[Semper aggressus]

We play a lot of games over a season. We seem to get a lot of injuries. None of our forwards other than Haaland score many goals, and our bench was really weak at the weekend. We definitely need him and he’d improve us straight away.
