OMG I've just creamed my pants. What a player. Instant replacement of Fern who can become a City coach.

are you taking the piss? FDJ is a shitty player who will be 5th choice in any of our position

Would've liked to seen us bag a striker for January before selling Forres first, rather than waiting with a fistful of dollars and watching on as Vlahovic goes somewhere else in the hope of luring Haaland in the mother of all Summer auctions.

Then finally settling with a broken Kane.

I agree . This is only a good deal if we spend in January to bring in a striker because going into the busy period after Christmas when we go on 3 fronts to maybe challenging for the treble we need all the firepower we can get and selling Torres who would potentially get us 10-15 goals without strengthening is crazy because it’s not as if we have strikers in abundance waiting to get a game . I’m happy to sell Torres but it should have been in the summer if we don’t recruit .

50 Mill looks goud business. But how can Barcelona spent? Ah ofcourse. UEFA darlings and FFR don’t apply to them.

Surprised a relaxed finisher is able to go when we still have a rabbit stuck in headlights on the books. The same happened with Sane. Oh well, if he wanted to go its not good to stand in the guys way. His outside of the boot volleyed finish for spain was sublime.

Who is the “rabbit in the headlights” player ?

I think this is, on balance, a better move for City than for Torres and Barcelona. Good luck to the lad, but I suspect Barcelona might be in decline for many years, and Torres might regret his move.

Maybe, but he gets to be the main man, back in his home country and potentially score lots of goals.

Good luck to him. Seemed a decent lad and a bit unlucky with injuries. Probably our most natural goalscorer so let's hope we have somebody else coming in.
