where have you read these "reports" please , unless it was from txiki or peps desk then i wouldn't take too much notice, or do you mean twitter ?Reports this morning that Wirtz, Barella, and Olmo are all not for sale this summer. We have inquired. After Bellingham, Rice, and Paqueta, that would make Eze our 7th choice ;). Common sense will most likely prevail, and we will go into the season with what we have and re-evaluate in January.
Possible throw them a youth team sweetener or two as part of it?70M seems low this late in a window for a player Palace are almost certainly desperate to keep.
yanks wont turn money down no matter where it comes fromIt all depends on Palace being able to find a replacement in the same time before letting him go.
Maybe throw Mcatee on a loan/permanent as a sweetener as well?Palmer (loan) to palace with Olise out? wonder if Roys fancies him.
Is he? I've only ever seen him playing centrally for Palace.Ezé's more a winger from what I've seen. Centrally, he ain't getting a game at City imo, plus we need pace, power, trickery & jeopardy out wide, so we can continue to tactically evolve.
If our interest is concrete & if we sign Doku, it'll be like back to the future with Sterling & Sané.
Makes both signings exciting in my view!Genuinely don't have a solid opinion on this or Doku.
Both seem like they're bigger gambles than the club has taken under Pep. We've made our living buying just below world class players for just below world class prices and turned them world class.
These 2 feel a lot more like they could be incredible revelations under Pep or they could be expensive mistakes. I guess we just won't know for a year or so.
Exciting though! And it helps that I genuinely think we don't *need* either of them. If they both turned out to be like Phillips I think we'd still compete on all fronts.
could give them 50m and a couple of youth players to sweeten the potMaybe throw Mcatee on a loan/permanent as a sweetener as well?
he wants a twitter knockout signing ,so made it up,7th choice ? we might of asked last season so where does that move him on the list
all speculation and guess work
i think west ham obviously had the release clause to work off of , plus the fact that paqueta is an established brazil international and even then we had agreed a deal of 80 according to reportsConsidering Palace knows City would have spent 85 on Paqueta they’ll demand nothing less. English tax included.
85-90 mil for Eze and Palmer on loan/permanent (30?)
mate, they fucking doubt pep half the geniuses on here :)@tolmie's hairdoo with another exclusive. Mad that people still doubt him (more so on Twitter than on here tbf)
Not sure even his missus listens to him when in drink!And drunken twosips.
not since woy reinvented himself or was it a free hit when reappointedtbf Eze would shine for a more attacking/possesion minded side compared to Palace which are very defensive minded
know it sounds funnyHe‘s eze
eze like sunday morning
uber
eyes down for a full house in city bingo, who had hes not on citys level?Good player but not City level 'good' this will end up another Kalvin Phillips Esque transfer if it happens, if he weren't english we wouldn't be looking at him, mind you he's fourth choice, anything over £50 million would be overpriced, I dont think this happens.
