I would have agreed but they paid 80mil for Lucas and he’s barely had a sniff, Sane wasn’t cheap either. If they can get in his ear and delay it for a year, they’d pay the 60/70mil release clause.
Bayern are not buying him this summer but it doesn’t mean that they can’t talk to him. They can entice him and tell him to stay a year longer then sign him next year.

Looking at the stats from the past year we would need to completely change the way we play to accommodate him
he doesn't press - pressures per 90
Doesn’t get involved in the build up, passes per 90 and touches in the middle third
is also dispossessed a lot , dispossessed per 90
his shooting stats are amazing though
basically get the ball to him and he will score a lot of goals
doesnt scream city player though, indeed Kun had to alter his game once Pep came in
i think a lot of people in this thread are going to be disappointed

Sorry, this doesn’t make any sense
Perhaps under the team supported section you should put Haaland rather than Manchester City ?
I’m not an absolutist and yet you reply with a personal attack. I am stopping myself from doing the same
How many teams play exactly like City? Gonna be hard pressed to hind someone who’ll fit perfectly. What you can do is look at a player and go yeah he’d do well for us and can improve greatly cos he’s only 20.
Maybe, maybe not. He’s been linked with Madrid quite a few times but would he have fancied himself displacing Messi or Ronaldo?
Has it crossed your mind that Pep always changes the way his teams play from one season to the other, while sticking to the positional play principles? His thinking isn’t static. We would be playing a different kind of football were Aguero at his best and capable of playing 90 minutes. And a lot of players at their teams are forced to play a different style of football anyway, which doesn’t mean they aren’t capable of adapting. UNDER PEP we have signed players that had to go through a tactical adaptation from their previous club. Which ones failed at that, may I ask?
Listen, you’ve convinced yourself I get it , he’s probably your favourite player
Well there you went again on a personal attack instead of replying to my points. Shows how shallow yours are. And just for your information, I started the Lukaku thread on this transfer forum. Like I said, I’m not an absolutist
