De Bruyne?

[SWP's back]

No, not remotely near that level regardless of what they tell you on here.

He has a far better end product.

 

[BigOscar]

Really don't get this transfer to be honest, seems really unneccessary with the players we have and the youngsters we have coming through. CM and LB seems far more pressing, but I guess those in charge think he's worth prioritising. We'll be massively overstacked in the attacking midfield area if we pull this off though, surely we have to be looking to offload Nasri?

 

[manimanc]

Not worried in the slightest, Sterling done and dusted. Im happy with just him, anyone else is just a bonus.

Yep same here.
We've got enough to get us through.

 

[EL APACHE TEVEZ]

500 up for kev,must be getting close now.

 

[Cheadle_hulmeBlue]

dont see the point in this transfer we have more than enough attacking players, if anything its just going to block the young players from playing

We'd have Nasri,Lopes,and Navas in 'competition' - If KDB is a significant upgrade on all 3 then it makes sense to me.

Youre right though,id be looking to sell Nasri......but that is far easier said than done given the financial implications.

Sterling, de Bruyne & Delph to replace Lampard, Milner, Dzeko & Jovetic hardly seems like overstacking ?

 

[TRUE BLUE NO1]

I agree manimanc, Kippax...the only thing I would say is that we've done enough to "improve" BUT have we done enough to challenge for the CL and win back the prem? I love the Sterling/Delph signings but not sure those 2 signings alone are enough to get us where owners want us to be....As Yaya mentioned in his interview, we still need a couple of players to reach the next level....

Sterling/Nasri Silva/Lopes KDB/Navas

What's the issue here? 5/6 can play all 3 positions. The Barker's/Roberts duo aren't as good as KDB with all that he brings right now. If we are trying to regain the league and push on in CL we need a KDB in this team so our levels don't drop if we happen to rotate during a multiple game week.

Dzeko and Jovetic are almost out of the door. So we are going to be fine in attack with major improvements across the pitch.

Let's hope that Toure is fully aware of who those players might be and when they might be onboard (He has to be)
