I don't even rate Doku so I was extremely disappointed when we dropped interest on Mitoma.

Just reading your inane and inconsequential thoughts the past few pages made my head swirl.

Tribalism and the fact our manager is very succesful so no one has a problem if he deals with a difficult player this way.

Sixteen million for Laporte your making me laugh. We cannot even buy a half version of him at twice that price and you think that price is good business. You must be itching to sign another 70m pounds CB next year the way your the way you go about your transfers. I understand why Cancelo needs...

Yes hopefully Chelsea will be tempted to add Doku to their collection.

He must be earning a boatload of money there if he is entertaining the thought of going to Saudi. I wonder what prevented the London clubs from getting him? Probably a combination of Laporte wanting out of the PL, City not willing to transfer to a PL rival and not meeting the valuation set.

Already snubbed Spurs and has interest from Arsenal but City won't sell to them and you think he should be moving to West Ham. Yeah brilliant idea that.

Remind Ortega that he is contracted and that he left it too late to move. Why should we be doing Buyern any favor? The hassle and the potential problems we will face without a competent backup keeper will not be worth the fee those Munich trolls will offer. No less than 50m or tell them to shop...

I like the Sané/Mahrez types of wingers, players with excellent technique. I was already sold on Mitoma but it seems some factors have made this signing impossible. Brighton possibly hyperinflating the price on an asset they bought for cheap? Doku reminds me so much of Sterling the way he...

Haha Why so touchy? You seem to be really dead set on Paqueta being a success. I just reminded you to lower your expectations. I trust my impressions, judgments and discernments. Thankfully I've not been disappointed by my assessments. I don't stray much away from players who have a track record...

I will reiterate once again, we should have sign Maddison. He is proven quality, meanwhile we are still wondering if Paqueta is just another samba dancer that thinks the football field is a ballroom or something. Some healthy dose of realism is needed when it comes to Paqueta and his ability.

Paqueta is not his surname. Apparently it's a nickname. It's the name of the island in Rio where he grew up. His real surname is de Lima.

WTH are you talking about those people you listed except for Sterling played last year in the CL. May I remind you one of those players, Mahrez single handedly drag City in the 2021 semi against PSG to reach our first final. A very important achievement and milestone for the club FYI. By your...

Are we really seeing how many experts here have dubbed Philips excess baggage and nonessential to the club. Also City always put players in mind when doing transfers. We try to procure transfers that are amiable and beneficial to the player. This is of course talking about players that are not...

I know the Dippers are not in CL but so are Chelsea and frankly based on results from recent seasons they are more likely to regain consistency and win things again. I guess Caicedo can't be enticed to live in Liverpool with Scousers.

Hopefully the club has a lot more sense than some people here wanting to suddenly splurge 100m on someone that that was barely on anyone's radar a week ago. It was 70m, then it became 80+ now we might be touching 100m. They can take a hike. Paqueta was never an intended signing clearly, if he...

Not sure what the last paragraph was about and why my opinion got you so worked up. I don't deal with people who are easily triggered because I make allusions to players/clubs they hate. Your obviously the one who don't know much when you think spending 85m on a possibly average player with...

Yes I like the look of Bruno F. If he had been our player we'd also be extremely satisfied. I fail to see why I have to somehow view Paqueta's talent and ability in a more positive light because he doesn't play for our city rivals.

The only midfielders I really like in the PL outside City and look to me like they are City level are Ødegaard, Maddison and Bruno F. I could care less about the others. One of them was actually available but somehow we ended up trying to sign someone no one talk about a week ago.

Shame the resident Brazilian expert is no longer around... Would love to have his insightful input and thoughts on this transfer.
