Pep might not be here for more than 3 years. All we need is Bravo to be ready and able for those 3 years and he'll be a successful signing. Don't worry about his age -- it's a non-issue.

Brilliant post. I am a big fan of Joe's and he's been a huge figure, but sometimes it makes sense to sell a player while they still actually have some value. Far too often have we let players run down their deals or sold for less than if we'd shifted them when we had the chance. If Joe is not...

Good stuff. He's got a few years left in the tank.

Unfortunately for Joe, when we signed Stones it put us up to 5 association trained, non club trained players meaning one of Clichy, Joe or Delph were expendable from a Champions League squad management perspective. Seems like the Bravo thing will probably be sorted quickly and Joe shifted...

Probably an espresso so they figure why not keep the cup small. Funny to see him looking this casual! Big fan of his.

I recall her touring with the EDS and women's team previously. I'd occasionally see her stuff retweeted by the club or otherwise. She was probably just the Junior Photographer or however it was phrased if Shaz was considered the Senior one. Not an assistant per se, just a secondary photographer.

She has spent quite a bit of time lately on tour with The Chief, Noelie G, photographing him! Recent post of his:

Yes. Nigeria have been eliminated so Kelechi will not be affected. Ivory Coast have not yet qualified but likely will -- they play Sierra Leone the first week of September and if they win they're through automatically I believe.

One thing to consider..City already had 4 association trained players. This gives us the freedom to sell Joe.

http://www.mcfcwatch.com/2016/07/20/revealed-how-much-manchester-city-are-paying-for-geronimo-rulli/ This story from some weeks ago spelled out what was going to happen pretty clearly. Whether or not people agree with the concept is of course another story. We need another keeper now rather...

I have said for some time I think he needs to go and wasn't at our level at this point but if he's staying then so be it. We know he will fight like hell for the team -- hopefully he has a great season and proves me wrong!

He hasn't played well but honestly, their team just looks completely neutered. They're no more effective with him off or on. I can't decide if it'd be good if they lost to Denmark or what.. would prefer for his confidence for him and Brazil to do well but maybe him getting back to club football...

Couldn't have asked for a much better draw than this. They're a known entity of course but we shouldn't have any difficulty dispatching them. Nice to get the away fixture out of the way first as well. Hopefully we kill the tie early.

Could be right in terms of him potentially coming in as a sub at times, but Bayern played 52 games last year and Lewandowski played in 51 of them and Muller played in 49. But guys like Coman, Costa, Ribery, Robben missed a number of games due to rotation. Obviously Ribery and Robben were due to...

No, no he doesn't. This is an idiotic and nonsensical post and I say that with no slight at all directed towards Rashford who is fantastic. Gabriel Jesus is (was) one of the most wanted youngsters in the world. This is a massive signing -- he looks like Aguero's long-term replacement to me. I...

I think it's just about impossible to guess until we see what he lines up with against Arsenal. That will probably be close to the team he starts. I am very curious who will make up the attackers outside of Aguero -- I think he is probably the only one who can be certain he'll play every game...

Wow. Tencent are absolutely massive -- quite the coup. They own the developer of League of Legends and recently purchased the vast majority of the Clash of Clans developer Supercell for over $8 billion. Just watching the video -- think that might be about the first time I've heard Silva speak...

Not even remotely true. You're suggesting the fact he's playing a pre-season friendly precludes him from coming. KDB not only played in the preseason, he played a few regular season games. There is nothing in Stones playing that changes anything.

Agreed. I don't understand why we have not chosen to subsidize their wages for 1-2 years a la Adebayor, but I can't really begin to try and understand the complexities of these deals or what Txiki is thinking.

Main issue is just finding a team that will take them and getting them to leave. It's a two-way street. If Sevilla is actually interested and Navas would like the move, then I think we should let him go. We have a litany of attacking mids/wingers -- I think Zinchenko could slot into the role...
