Yes it’s been acknowledged that the last few windows have been poor. However, he did pretty well the numerous seasons before and the sales from academy and a few others has again allowed us to now be in a position to buy.He needz to as he’s not covered himself in glory last few windows .
The success on the pitch is his success aswell.
Time we stopped attacking the man. Paramount to our recent success.
He is leaving anyway.

Makes sense they always get out of it somehow.
Also I’m glad, Olmo is great but I don’t think what we are looking for.
He is great for international football far to lightweight for the PL. Best filed under Dodged Bullet.
It's not his size that's the problem it's his injury record.He is great for international football far to lightweight for the PL. Best filed under Dodged Bullet.

Surprise surprise looks like Barca have sorted his registration out. What a joke of a club and how they're getting away with signing players still is a disgrace, but never questioned

We need to be more aggressive in poaching their youth. Gavi, pedri, Yamal - all would thrive at city, especially under pep. Could they realistically turn down £200m for all three?

Every single piece of Barca being sold off.
What happens when theres nothing left to sell off?
Barcelona wont own any aspect of their own club.

All 3 out of contract summer of 2026. We should tap them up and tell them to run down their contract and we will sign them for free in 2026.We need to be more aggressive in poaching their youth.

To be fair, oil does come out of the ground, so technically it is dirty, and it if you sell it, I have no objections to calling it dirty oil money.Hmmm no mention of Dirty Oil money in the article.
I mean honestly, who in here would not wash their hands if they had just handled some dirty oil from the ground.
Common sense really.
This is exactly what ffp should have preventedEvery single piece of Barca being sold off.

They clearly are not a sustainable club in any way shape of form
Leeds United vibes on a bigger scale
They go tits up and blame City ;)Every single piece of Barca being sold off.

Trouble is we bow to Barca and under pep we would never dare try it in with them as Barca is peps true love .We need to be more aggressive in poaching their youth. Gavi, pedri, Yamal - all would thrive at city, especially under pep. Could they realistically turn down £200m for all three?

They'll bleat on about history, how it's it's not fair with "state owned clubs" around and ask for all of their debts to be waived by La Liga and UEFA.Every single piece of Barca being sold off.

Disagree. 1 defender, 1 DM and a player who can play all across the front positions/AM who is a goal threat (unlike our existing options) and can cover for Haaland. Cunha for me would be ideal…We currently have 2 slots open for new signings, we can make it 3 by removing rodri for the rest of the season, we can make a maximum of 3 amendments to the squad for CL so thats the maximum number of players we can bring in. The priority is a holding midfielder and a minimum of 1 and probably 2 defenders. That's 3 already, next on the list would be a striker, considering we have a grand total of 1 on the books but even that will likely have to wait. We have plenty of players who can be creative, its pretty much dead last on immediate needs.
The lack of creativity stems from the awful tactics not the need to replace players. Kdb is the best there's ever been, foden is the current premier league player of the year, doku is statistically the second best dribbler in the league, savinho was voted 4th best young footballer on the planet. Bobb isn't far off a return now. Plenty.

The first 2 are fucked already from being overplayed too young and they'll move Heaven and Earth to keep Yamal.

Isn't that player Oscar Bobb? There is plenty of talk about the lack of minutes mcatee has seen so far and that's despite not having kdb available for most of it, Bobb for all of it, foden missing large parts, amongst others. If we get some of those back and available where's the room for another?Disagree. 1 defender, 1 DM and a player who can play all across the front positions/AM who is a goal threat (unlike our existing options) and can cover for Haaland. Cunha for me would be ideal…
I do believe we need a striker, from the second Alvarez was rumoured to be off I was vocal about needing one, i've always said the false 9 isn't viable in this squad but right now theres too many higher priorities and we have to be realistic about what we can do in January, widespread change isn't possible in a month. If txiki does his job and gets us what we need elsewhere, i can only see a forward coming in if we are to offload an attacking player to balance it out. But then who is that going to be? Haaland, kdb, foden, savinho, doku, bobb are all untouchable for one reason or another, there's only really grealish that's expendable but nobody is giving us a fee for him so he's going nowhere either.
