Declan Rice

[Pollocks OG]

i dont think stoned will be playing in midfield. Rice is exactly what pep wanted from stoned in midfield.

I hope nobody stoned is playing in midfield, we'll never defend our titles if so.

Yaya was a CB at one time. Maybe pep sees Declan as the same type of player. There is only 1 Yaya but other players can have similar traits.

Yaya wasn't a CB. He played the position once or twice. He was a marauding box to box CM everywhere he went until he got to Barcelona where he calmed down and played the tiki taka as a DM.

Then he came to us and returned to his Pre Barcelona self with better footballing nuance.

According to Sly Sports News sources, City have yet to make an official bid for Declan Rice.

They're probably still reporting United have hijacked City's bid for Berbatov too.

Stones did an excellent job in midfield last season.

We aren’t. I’ve been told today from a very reliable source at City that he’s going to Arsenal.

Good news on Gvardiol though.

How's your source now?

How do they know, I’m calling this bs..

You know his entire job is to manage relationships and get fed things by several decently placed people at City. He only posts what City are ok with being known.

I can see @tolmie's hairdoo sat in bed now with a pot of tea, dipping rich tea biscuits in, just reading the comments. Top man once again - and looking like your personal treble is on.. ;)

Hope he has a spoon to retrieve the sodden biscuits that have fallen in the brew, rich tea are the worst!

It's all about the impeccable timing my friend. 2 dips/3 seconds - max.

He’s been saying Rice for weeks and he’s been saying since January that City are likely to get rid of Phillips.
