Fabinho

Think I'll leave it up to the man who's ripped the premier league a new one.

This.

I agree with all that. Jorginho is a passing machine but Fabinho reminds me of a peak Yaya in some respects and I’ve wanted him for ages as I wanted VVD too.

In what respects is he like peak Yaya?

I will start... Scores lots of penalties like Peak Yaya did....

Ok now you continue....

Prime Yaya was benched by another 'passing machine' in Busquets for a reason, I watched every Barca game that season so remember it clearly. Busi was simply a much better pivot for a Guardiola team.

No he wasn't. But we've already had this argument so idI agree to disagree :)

On the other note, Fabihno is nothing like Prime Yaya.

And you are going to hate this :) Jorghino is a better passer than prime Busi. Yeah I said it! :)

Good player Fabinho, but not fit to lace an in his pomp Yaya's boots. Yaya was a game changer, Fabinho isn't.

Thank you. I wondered why that was let slide :)

So we get Van Dijk, that means we wouldn't have got Laporte. We get Fabinho, we don't get Jorginho. We get Fekir, we don't get Mahrez.

We can't have them all.

Outside of VVD, I'll take J and M over F&F

Just when he thought things couldn't get any worse

Don't know what to make of this one. Think it will strengthen their title bid but weaken the way their midfield plays against us and those head to head games could be the difference next season.

Agreed. Jorginho and Mahrez would be my choices.

VVD is a very good defender, but I'm a huge fan of Laporte. He has so much potential.

Interesting considering Liverpool were in for Jorginho the past 3-4 months and gave up like 2-3 weeks ago when they learnt that he had his mind set on City. I'm assuming that's when they moved on to Fabinho. And this is not me pulling rumors out of my arse, but what was reported by Tier 1 Liverpool sources like Paul Joyce, Bascombe, Melissa Reddy, etc. Also love the fact that Fabinho has been trying to get out of Monaco for 2 seasons now, was linked to PSG, United, City, Juventus at various points but nobody bought him until now.

The same could be said about Lemar..What happened is this: PSG tried to sign Fabinho last season but Monaco refused to sell him and Lemar after losing so many players.
Atletico Madrid made an offer according to reports in Spain, but Liverpool payed more.

That said i think Jorginho is more suited to City's style.

This. Fabinho doesn't have half the technical ability Yaya Touré has/had.

Jorginho is one of the best passers in the world, he'd suit us perfectly.
