Deal agreed with Bayern Munich for Leroy Sane - €60m (including add-ons)

We didnt let Sancho go thought you new the reason why he went.

True, I phrased that poorly, but Sancho presumably wanted away as he could see little opportunity ahead.

Beast or not, if Leroy doesn't want to be here then why keep a unhappy player?

For sure, but don't think this is like the Boateng situation, alls I'm saying.

Yes I realise all that, but what if KDB gets injured? I wouldn't want to sell Leroy when we can't replace him, even if we still have a very strong squad.

Leroy is not at KDB's level yet, but he is capable of getting there.

Liverpool ended up stronger by selling their best player, and City could do likewise over time, but it may impact on this season.

We won everything last season without Leroy and Kevin when it mattered.

 

[The Stockport Iniesta]

Yeah and might feature there more with Hernandez arriving.

Where did he play under Pep? Lb and sometimes in mf? Can't remember tbh.

When I mentioned Boateng, I only meant he wasn't happy and wanted out.

Do Bayern have any worthwhile players to take of them as part of the deal? Coman still there?

Never rated Coman, he has always flattered to deceive. Looks like a Ferrari but ends up driving like an old dodgy van.
Besides, Bayern aren't going to trade a winger for a winger, one of the reasons they want Sane is that they are short on wingers (the other is the wingers they do have are short on quality).

He scored the winning goal against the dippers

 

[BlueMoonRisin’]

Fuck it. I've decided I don't like Sane now he has a shit hair do; )

He scored the winning goal against the dippers

And a great goal it was but it doesn't make him up there with Raheem,Kevin,David,Bernado and Sergio in the wages stake.

Yeah, think Pep was the first to try him out in MF (as well as CB) and think he tried him as a wing back/winger hybrid too. Pep really was the one who made him world class, and perhaps he could do that again...as Alaba has slumped in recent seasons. However tbh I'd be happy enough with Zinny and Cancelo as well as Mendy, who seems to be out of our heads a little...for fucks sake if only technology allowed you to get new knees that were fully functional.
