Certainly not stating Atleti are paupers but you have to remain realistic in the market conditions you're operating within, especially with more clubs paying attention to PSR. At the end of the day Atleti were never going to repeat the same mistake they made 4 or 5 years ago with Felix & pay...

Two points which I think you're not taking into account & are key. The first one is its outstanding business for City to gain £82 from a club outside of the Premiership. The two examples you've quoted are for transfers going to Premiership teams where currently the money is. The second point...

No chance…making up for the lost celebrations when we should have beaten this lot at last season’s FA Cup final. Even sweeter when they thought they had won it with 10 or so mins to go. Teenage Kicks from the Undertones got a rousing reception after the game from Wembley’s PA system & Wembley...

Upon reflection wouldn't mind Felix here due to his versatility. There's a player in there somewhere, plus if this deal goes through for the reported £60m inevitably every club then knows we've got some recent cash & hikes up the price for any potential target which would take weeks to...

Got something about him but does my head in not releasing the ball earlier so can only imagine what Pep must be thinking. Raw, but dynamic & talented. Does need to play with the first team more & get familiar with players around otherwise I can picture a few players getting frustrated in not...

KP looks like a MOTM out there! It’s obvious he’s more comfortable reacting to things in front of him.

Saw this & similar to the FA Cup opportunity didn’t seem confident in finishing it. If you want to play in the big games you need to take these chances…still raw & learning regardless of his impressive medal haul.

Well he's currently on Eurosport 5 now along with Otamendi playing against Ukraine if you lot want to catch him whilst he's still a City player!

Agree with on this. Had watched McAtee in the EDS a couple of times & thought he was excellent & had enormous potential. I think he's mentioned the step up to the first team has been large & playing in the Premiership, especially he commented on the speed of the game. He has a wand of a left...

Indeed, the gap in shot stopping between Ederson & Ortega isn't that huge in my opinion. You only need to look back recently at probably one of the most important games in the club's history during the Champions League final in Istanbul to witness the crucial saves he made, especially right at...

Seems to have been mentioned a few times on here but curious to know how much a ticket roughly cost at last time's game? Some friends who attended the UNC College American football games over there last season stated it was pretty much packed on a regular basis. Although I'm sure student...

Encouraging to hear. Hope he doesn't take Palmer's route by having a good pre-season then we sell him. Did watch him a couple of times for the EDS & like a couple of posters here it was obvious he was leaps & bounds ahead of everyone else. Certainly reminded me of David Silva at times, but its...

Is that KP taking a shot!

Simply baffling why we havn't snapped him up already. Surely he would be part of our succession planning. If KDB goes now or next summer he would help fill the attacking creativity gap. Plus, would allow us to save & spend big once the top young midfielders do become available/feasible, which...

you've redeemed yourself from the Josko plane tracking fiasco last summer - good job on the Savio timing!

Of course he wants to be the 'top boy' at a club. Don't think footballers grow up wanting to be the second back-up striker sitting on the sidelines. I personally would want to keep him for a season more. Lets be honest Big Erl isn't going to be fit the entire season so we do need a second...

cheers for the info. All for getting Guimaraes (Neves would be my preferred option) but not at the expense of handing Bobb to them. If the Geordies are set on Bobb at least have a sensible buy-back option on him. Would rather not see him tearing up the league in a couple of yrs time & then...

Indeed have a good friend who is a journo over there just north of Stockholm. Past 10yrs there has been increasing violence & shootings common place due to gangs all over the country. Would be interesting to get a POV from our BM friends who are based in Sweden & I know contribute to the...

Think I had posted this earlier on for the full interview which indeed seems to confirm his reluctance to leave permanently.

I bet we don't. If Eddie goes, I think we'll simply promote Ortega to no 1 (he's earned this) & sign a young developmental GK or perhaps someone under the radar similar to Ortega when he was in Germany. Maybe if Ortega doesn't work out we'll go all out for an established keeper next summer.
