It's absurd. The only way I see us loaning Alvarez to them is if there is an obligation to buy with a fee close to £100 million. And when has a move like that ever happened? These journalists have to be smoking some good stuff. When we bought Aguero in 2011 Atletico charged us £36 million which...

My thoughts as well. If Alvarez goes we'll have a spot for a creative attacking player like Olmo. Would be my ideal replacement if we move Alvarez on.

We'd be in the market, sure. But the striker market isn't exactly booming, and hasn't been for a while. Not panicking either, unless we sell Alvarez and still can't get Haaland to extend his contract. That's when I'll be worried.

Hope so. There is no fucking world where we sell Ederson for £30m and are better off for it. It's not even enough to cover half of Diogo Costa's release clause if we wanted to bring in a keeper of his caliber. I don't really care if Ederson complains either. He can wipe his tears with the...

Downright fucking disrespectful. Saudis are taking the piss and probably laughing as they unsettle our players while purposefully low-balling us on the transfer fee. Disgusting tactics and I'd straight up refuse to take calls from these wankers at this point. What a joke.

Nightmare scenario is if we sell Julian this summer to accommodate him and then can't get a contract extension done with Haaland. We'd be up the fucking creek - Alvarez is quite literally the only insurance policy we have right now if Haaland doesn't want to keep playing in Manchester. Another...

Savio has been done for a while tbf. Think Fabrizio confirmed he was joining City months ago, just a formality at this point. Olmo has been a weird transfer saga this summer. Fabrizio is saying we aren't interested at the moment, whereas DiMarzio is claiming that we're aiming to have a deal...

I think our summer window should finally get going now that the Euros/Copa are done. Only problem is a lot of the players are on holiday and won't want to be negotiating with clubs over the next couple weeks.

Should be asking for more than the €40.00m we paid for him imo. It won't come cheap to replace Ederson, and almost anybody we bring in will be a downgrade to him (distribution-wise). I doubt City will do it, but the asking price for Ederson should be whatever the cost is to bring in his...

As someone who watched a lot of both, I respectfully disagree. Rodri is the more complete DM and influences the game more imo. And is miles ahead in terms of finishing and end product. If I had to pick one to build a team around I'm going Rodri 100 times out of 100. Busquets was the greatest DM...

Zirkzee is decent. Didn't offer much against England sure, but neither did the entire Holland team outside of Simons. I'm just hoping the rags don't get Yoro and De Ligt this window, would be a pretty solid backline for them.

Also I think Kova was important for getting Gvardiol to City. Just putting my tinfoil hat on for a bit but I do wonder if that was part of the reason we (not the only reason, obviously) brought him in. Gvardiol gets a fellow Croatian to help him acclimate to England and we get the best defensive...

I don't rate Tolmie personally - think the guy just likes to throw shit at the wall for likes and hopes it sticks. Pretty sure he had Douglas Luiz from Villa joining City two weeks ago and said 'he was forced to take the tweet down' by City higher ups. Or when he said Neymar was on the phone...

Loan deal with an obligation to buy after next season could work. Just need to get him out of the club at this point since Pep clearly wants him gone.

Always like seeing people get the facts straight. City could've retained Palmer if we wanted to. The lad asked for a loan and our board refused to give it to him. One of the most glaring mistakes I can remember City making in a long while, albeit the Phillips signing on massive wages / long...

Couto would be eaten alive in the Premier League. Doesn't have nearly enough pace/athleticism to handle the physicality that City would demand from their fullbacks. He's even worse than Cancelo in those aspects, and Cancelo drove people crazy on BM with his defensive lapses. He's a brilliant...

If Southgate actually had a pair of nuts Kane would be benched for Watkins. I think I speak for everyone when we've had enough of Kane occupying the spaces Foden/Bellingham want to be in and muddying it all up. Still think Spain have been the far better side this tournament and they have 'the...

There's a rule preventing Savio from going on the pre-season tour with City? First I've heard of it, but that's ridiculous if true. Savio needs all the time he can get with Pep so he can hit the ground running.

He'll weasel his way back into playing English football again at some point I reckon. Just disgusting business all around.

Same. He's quite a talent, better than I gave him credit for. Would absolutely cook at City under Pep, although I'm not sure Bernie is the right comparison. Bernardo is a unicorn as far as I'm concerned, there aren't many footballers that have his unique skillset. Think he'd be a KDB...
