Doubt we bring Echeverri into the first team just to warm the bench and play the odd cup game. Would be better for his development to see regular minutes every week. No need to rush getting the kid to City unless he's absolutely tearing up the Argentine League like Alvarez was.

City allegedly pushed hard to sign Yamal last summer (not sure how true this is) and pissed Barca's board off, which is hilarious considering how many times they've tried to poach our players / gotten cheap loan deals from us. Don't see Barca selling their next golden boy anytime soon though.

They're assuming they'll get Cancelo on a cheap loan again. Hopefully our board holds firm this time around and doesn't give Brokelona more handouts. They haven't even fully paid for Ferran yet. We aren't a charity for Barca, they should pay up or we ship Cancelo off to the camel league.

Fuck off. Don't gate-keep who can be a fan of the club just because I don't follow every single City fan channel on YouTube like you do. You say he's credible, tell me what other transfer news this lad has broken then. Just curious.

Ortega will likely be the #1 going into the season and deservedly get his shot at being City's #1 between the sticks. After how great he was last season he's earned the opportunity. Txiki will probably bring in a low-risk #2 with high potential like Christos Mandas from Lazio or Bart Verbruggen...

who? Is that a reputable source or no? Never heard of that journalist tbf.

You don't rate Branthwaite? I think he's a pretty good player, so hopefully they ruin him like they've ruined their other signings.

Are you off your meds again?

I acknowledge that, just speaking to the people who don't think it's going to be a big blow. We are the hardest team to press in the world and a large part of that is because of Eddie's distribution.

Didn't realize Bayern's wage structure was equivalent to City's wage structure. If Kimmich were to come to City, it's unlikely he'd be on the same inflated wages. And no, that doesn't mean we pay him peanuts.

You got a problem?

I feel like you don't appreciate what Ederson brings to the table for Pep's system. Massive under-reaction to losing one of our most important players in the entire squad. Eddie is a massive reason why teams struggle to press us and you will notice the difference next season if he goes. I...

I mean I don't necessarily disagree, just rate Calafiori highly and would hate to see him strengthen a direct rival. Thought he'd be a home-run signing for us and it's a bit disappointing that we didn't take much of a look at him I suppose. One defender I think I'd keep your eye on is Max...

Last I heard, Kimmich is available and would like to join City but the player is also waiting to hear what Pep's future will be. Doesn't want to only play one season under Pep before a new manager comes in, which is understandable. If Kimmich signs for City before a Pep contract extension is...

It's a good question. I'm not sure if Walker starts at age 34 against Madrid. He was completely caught out of position and was at fault for the Madrid goal that cost us the match at the Etihad in April. I think I'd prefer Akanji at RB over Walker but that's just how I see it. And absolutely in...

Not to mention Al-Nassr have plenty of money to offer us if they really want Eddie. Ronaldo is making €200,000,000 a year playing for them. Sadio Mane makes €40,000,000 a year. Laporte and Brozovic €25,000,000 a year. If there is a Man City tax in the transfer market, than there should...

At shot-stopping I think it's close. In terms of distribution, Costa is better. And he's 7 years younger than Ortega. Who would you want to bring in as a long-term replacement for Eddie?

This. Ederson is under contract until 2026 and is arguably our most important player in Pep's system outside of Rodri. If Saudi want to throw all that money at Eddie to poach him, the least they can fucking do is pay for his replacement. And he's only 30 years old, which is still young for a...

From what I've heard, yes. Hate when the rags make good signings. Very likely Branthwaite ends up playing for them.
