Anyone who has issues with the price needs to bear in mind a few facts:

- Mendy is contracted until 2021, he's 23, a league winner and a French International
- Monaco are financially healthy, have already sold £93m worth of talent this window, and would quite happily keep him.

From Monaco's likely perspective:
- We're a premier league club = loaded
- We're Manchester City = even more f*****g loaded
- We've no first team left backs = f****d (Sorry Aleks)

£50m to match Walker is a lot, if thats what the fee is going to be. However I can honestly say that I don't care! Mendy and Sane tearing through other teams will be a sight to behold!

Personally city shot them selves in the foot when it came to the full backs releasing clichy/sagna and selling clubs knowing full well we will meet there price no matter the haggling as we are in desperate need to replace we were never gonna get them on the cheap.

Yup.
 
Still little raw (even at the price we have paid for Mendy) but is an excellent signing. Good luck to him fulfilling his potential at City.

Agree to a fashion but it wasn't the releasing of them this summer it was last season not replacing them. Once we started last season with Zabs Sagna and Kolarov and then playing Fern and Navas during the season clubs would see we were well short. Not as if anyone would have thought we would go into next season with those players as full backs.

So the damage was done long before releasing them. Was clear as day that was happening.
