Do you guys agree with this sentiment?

All I'm going to say is that if Chelsea are immediately in for him the moment that City seem to be publicly out of the running, that might suggest he's worth the price ;)

Yeah could work out in a way where everyone 'saves face' considering the media mess this has caused. Chelsea are not nearly as an attractive destination as Man City but I think the transfer request means he's gotta commit to going somewhere and I guess there are worse places to end up ambition...

Man City can walk away proud, knowing that they didn't back down to the evil Bloom and celebrate this win...whilst still having the same squad issues. In all seriousness I would much prefer getting Colwill so this is perfect, RAN is decent and no idea about the Sosa fella so if this ends with...

Think this is quite a good point, now that this has caught so much public attention I can imagine other clubs going "Well Man City were willing to pay £40m for Cucu, we can get at least that for our LB too!" so maybe coughing up the extra for someone that Pep clearly wants and believes will fit...

Big agree above, it does not matter what was paid for Cucurella. If he was bought for £5m and played the exact same, would you expect him to go for £30m? That wouldn't make sense since his ability is exactly the same? Both clubs have their valuations, hopefully it can come to a conclusion so...

When Salah is playing like that, the only left back that's handling him is also wearing a Liverpool shirt. From what I've watched of City, Cancelo is more of a midfielder in position and against a team that can break as quickly and effective as Liverpool, it's going to be an issue. Having a real...

At the end of the day, player value is relative to the clubs involved, the contract and the situation. Nunez is not an £85m player or even close to it after just 1 good season in Portugal, however to Benfica he was worth keeping for no less than that amount. Sterling is worth far more than £45m...

We're on a city forum talking about cucu so i'll keep this short. You're chatting utter s****, if you watched the Estoril and Reading games you'd know Caicedo was deeper than Mac :D Cucurella would be a far bigger loss than Bissouma since there's never been a system without him since he arrived...

He already has. Macallister plays a deeper role like you mentioned, but Caicedo has already been the deepest midfielder when required (2nd half of the West Ham game for example).

We have no idea what kind of loyalty bonus he gave up with the request unfortunately, I would expect it to be no more than 2m like you said, which is probably insignificant in the grand scheme of things. All of this just reeks of Cucu's agent using every tactic to push the move, including...

From my understanding, Spurs told their sources about the £25m fee, which is the upfront payment, since typically fans will take the first fee and quote it everywhere. It's a successful tactic and it's technically not lying, it just misses out the £10m add-ons that were later reported by Sky...

Brighton perspective here, no hate intended at all: Man City have their valuation, Brighton have their valuation, they are allowed to be different. Cucurella is absolutely worth at least £50m to Brighton based on his season, contract and age. Is he worth that to Man City? Not my place to say...
