    Kevin De Bruyne | Appreciation thread

    The figures don't work for most clubs, also factoring in a signing fee as a free agent, running in to the tens of millions. Unless a Juve or Milan want a very expensive public relations coup, the suitors will be very narrow. Sure, Madrid could decide to take a chance because they literally...

    The Top Five Race 2024-25 (poll added)

    Playing Thursday kills any notion of a Premier League challenge. Especially so, travelling to backwaters, just so a few pissheads can enjoy ticking off places they haven't yet visited.

    Leave ego at the door now. Need Newcastle to beat Villa. It will give us breathing space before we play them.

    Kevin De Bruyne | Appreciation thread

    He wasn't. It was bollocks. You think anybody who can leave on a free transfer is also going to accept almost a £250k a week wage cut, just because he loves the club? It's not about money for City, it's about his inability to perform on a weekly basis due to his physical decline. He was...

    Xavi Simons

    Give me him, Reijndeers and Gibbs-White, we will have gone a long way to solving midfield with Rodri and Gonzales.

    Hope not. Not the player he was.

    I could see Everton and Moyes bringing him in to a conversation if we do move for Branthwaite.

    Florian Wirtz

    Gibbs-White has been put out by his agents, Stellar. They also rep Grealish and have promised another client to City to let him leave. Gibbs-White has two years left on his deal, so Stellar are trying to play Forest and City off.

    Media discussion - 2024/25

    Apparently Liverpool are about to win their 20th Premier League title, according to Sly?

    Bah was promised he can come in this summer, as part of the agreement. I think you will probably be right, and those three will stick around unless offers do come in. Stones is the shock I am expecting.

    Pep has said as much in his post-match comments. We should buy proper full-backs for both sides and go with the new lads, plus Josko and Dias.

    Newcastle v Villa this weekend. Need to get something at Everton to take advantage. Suppose there is a small chance Palace could get a draw at Newcastle on Wednesday.

    I'd be getting rid of Akanji, Stones and Ake. If Josko is finally now recognised as a centre back, he would have Khusanov, Dias, Bah and Reis to supplement. Love Ake and Stones, but contracts are almost up and might be last chance to cash in, as they will defo want to go to World Cup next...

    Kevin De Bruyne | Appreciation thread

    He has to go. Simply not been good enough for over a year now. It was a lovely reminder on Saturday that the talent will always be there, but it's also been very sad to watch him lumbering through games and not completing passes he would usually make with his eyes closed. The injuries will...

    Kevin De Bruyne | Appreciation thread

    Schmeichel and Cole were not on £400k a week. And Tevez was never wedded to any club. Kev will not go to a club in this country and there are still very few who will find the figures for a 34 year old. It will be an Italian club or more likely US.

    PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

    I'm of the mind the longer it goes, the more the Premier League are leeching into next season and such a state of flux would then exist to effectively cause the entire competition to be in the balance for that campaign. Every Premier League place is worth money and those relegated or deprived...

    Worst season since the takeover?

    I think many forget we had a horrible period last season in run up to Christmas? 3-3 Spurs, Chelsea 4-4, Palace 2-2, 1-0 at Arsenal. Shockers. Difference this time, we haven't been able to pick ourselves up unlike after the Club World Cup.

    I hope so, but would need to see it from a more reliable outlet.

    The Squad planning thread

    Jack wants to go to the World Cup and doesn't want to bluff running down the remainder of his deal. I assume if City are asking a low fee, it will offset his massive wages to the buyer. You never know, a footballer might even be willing to take a pay cut, but let's see.

    Morgan Gibbs-White

    Nope. Said they were squad players. MGW is a tier above those two.
