De Bruyne?

Doing absolutely zero defensive work considering down to 10 men.

this is not good to hear...would have expected that of Hazard but that's two games where his work rate has been shocking (the other v Inter Milan)

Compare his defensive workrate to how Fernando was tracking along for the 1-0 goal against Barcelona. Not a sight for sore eyes.

Yea, but did you see how well he brought that ball down on the byline ? Brilliant skill
 
He's not worth £40m, we could use that money much better.
He's played in England and didn't impress at Chelsea.
He's not homegrown.
Why the fuck don't we just go for Bale instead? Would cost more but he's far, far better.

According to "Sport Bild" an agreement on the extension of the contract of Kevin de Bruyne is imminent - 10 million euros per year. #WOB

Looks like we will be moving on to another target...

If we pull Bale out of the hat instead, then i'm fine with De Bruyne signing an extension.

yeah, Bale and Sterling :)

trickery on one side, goals on the other, pace on both!

both HG too!
 
Florentino Perez pretty much categorically said yesterday Bale isn't going to be sold in the summer and I don't think Bale id going to give up just yet.

It looks like both Bale and De Bruyne will be staying put next season.

I still think we will go for Sterling.

They have to say that. Give or take 1 month and 15 days and the situation may be different.

Would make no sense if Perez went out and publicly announced Bale was for sale, considering their position in La Liga and Champions League. Would be more unsettling than benefitial.

I still doubt it very much, plus I am bot convinced we can afford 80m with our budget and FFP.

Our midfield is the real big issue in my opinion, that's what needs 80m spending on it.

One can hope, and i'm in the same boat, but IF we can find the cash, then it should be on. One might suspect that even though people want him gone, we'll stick with Yaya for another season, and address the cash somewhere else.

Has his contract actually been announced? Or is it speculation?

Speculation but I won't be surprised if Wolfsburg are deciding on offering De Bruyne a bumper deal to scare of buyers or maybe just to weed out potential teams

As a rival fan what do you think of him? Good enough for City or does he need a couple of years at Wolfsburg to develop?
