Yesterday showed that Fernandinho really isn't up to the task in LB. I would go for both of Mendy and Betrand at any cost. Think we also may go back for VVD since Kolarov is leaving.
 
I dont know if this guy worth this type of money but we are desperate for a left back (or two) so Txiki is just gonna pay what they tell him.

Looking at other fullback transfers, huge talent from Atletico to Real Theo Hernandez leftback, around 30m €, I think his name was mentioned with City as well eariler, than Dani Alves to PSG for free, also Yuri Berchiche from Sociedad to PSG for around 15m€, then Kolasinac who was on City's radar to Arsenal as a free transfer.

We fucked up this a bit imo, we should have got Kolasinac+Alves early on in the window than fight for Mendy+Waler later on and from 100m pounds we would have got 4 good full backs imo. Kolasinac good enough imo as a LB to rotate with Mendy.

Now we still paying the 100m or more for Mendy+Walker, and looking to spend another 60m Danilo+Bertrand maybe. And we probably kill the way to promote Angelino/Maffeo in next two years.

We made a fucking mess to let these positions to rot so much until we have very old and very slow players in these positions getting their contract ended so not even income from letting them go maybe 2-3m for Kolarov...

Same thing can hapen in the middle of the park if we dont start to solve it now. Delph, Fernando, Yaya, Fernandinho, Gundogan, first two could be leaving, Yaya leaving next summer, Fernandinho too probably as no new contract for him, so we need to get fresh, strong midfielder in right now imo.

We needed to replace Kolarov the second we signed him. We have a similar problem in the centre of defence, Kompany as much as we all would love him wont stay young and fit forever. We have seen how big a miss he can be, who in the current City ranks will step up? Also i am so frustrated that Angelino and Maffeo will probably be sold in the comming seasons without being given a real chance.
 
Just got in from work.

He is clunky and clumsy. But he has speed, a great cross and am energetic attitude. Hence why I worry this is the one deal that could go either way. Good or bad.

I read the first 5 words of this post to the tune of the Addams Family, i was very disappointed when the next line didn't fit the tune :(
