Ok Blues. Let's say Kev decides to leave in this transfer window, who do we replace him with? Wirtz and Musiala seem to be bound to their clubs for now. To challenge for the CL and EPL, who do we go for, who would you rather see come in?

Play Foden as the attacking 8 and let Bobb be his backup. Rodri, Kovacic, Bruno G, Nunes and Rico to cover the 2 other midfield spots

There were seasons in his prime where he was injured for long periods, and results didn’t fluctuate at all. Losing him now he’s aging is nothing to worry about - the only issue is we sold the best replacement for him in Cole Palmer, rather than allow him to go out on loan then come back ready.

De Bruyne has always been a sloppy, high intensity player, so won’t be able to evolve into a controlling midfield role when his legs go. False 9 with mobility and goals behind and either side of him was probably the only role to graduate into, but Haaland’s presence makes that a non-start so it’s best to move him on now.

De Bruyne on human rights in Saudi Arabia "Every country has its good and bad things. Some people will give examples of why you shouldn't go there, but you can also give them about Belgium or England. Everyone has less good points. Who knows, maybe they will tell you the flaws of the Western world."​

He's right you know. There is still a lot wrong in the West. What about the sending people to Rwanda from England. Belgium and also the UK are financing the push backs in the Libyan desert. How many people wil die because of that.

He's a multi millionaire footballer, being used as a political mouthpiece. He's looking at trebling or even quadrupling his wages, so he's not going to criticise his potential cash cow.

Stick to kicking a ball for fuck's sake Kevin.

Do you speak dutch because he didn't say anything you are implying. He even said he has not even had contact with the Saudis.

Just take the money Blues and move on, five years time it'll look a good decision

But just what are they realistically going to pay for a 32 year old, with a so so injury record in recent years (and that's not going to improve as he gets older)? Even for one of the world's best players, would they pay truly silly money? Silly, as in 100m?

He's publicly kissing Saudi arse. Even Gerrard didn't stoop that low.

Why do we expect a footballplayer to justify his choices. IS there a boycot towards Saudi for our industry? What about the partnership in different ways among Europe and Saudi? And, the elephant in the room, where do City's funds in recent years originate from?
