Gundogan

All I can think is Pep must be the messiah if he can make a winning team out of our current sick notes with future sick notes

Is Darren Anderton making a comeback?

For £100 million I'd like to think you could throw a full back in there as well and still have change.

You're having a laugh! That just about covers Mino's fee, Paul's haircuts and paying Juventus to take Yaya on loan.

Ha! I meant using the £100 million that's earmarked for Pogba and getting Gundogan plus a top quality CM and fullback.

Ah right, I'm with you.

Yup, I have no idea about our budget or what Pep's after but if it was a straight choice between Pogba or a Gundogan and still having £60-80m to spend on other top quality players, it seems like an absolute no brainier.

Not that I'd complain if we ever got Pogba.

It's not an ideal situation but Gundogan is that good, he's worth the wait. Judging by the more reliable posters he'll be fit when the Champions League group stages begin and that's when the "squad" is stretched so we'll be absolutely fine. I can't imagine he'll be the only central midfielder arriving either, considering the only true all rounder we have is Fernandinho.

That said I think we'll be playing a 3-6-1 next season, with two holding midfielders and two central attacking midfielders. It's the only way to get De Bruyne and Silva in the same team in their favoured positions.

Well they have said they will sell for £17m, got to be worth the risk?

I am obsessed with City as a team that I support. When I see posts recommending that we sign Wiltshire, Laporte and Gundogan who have serious injury problems, we are not learning by the problems we encountered this season.

Well I havn`t seen one poster in support of signing Wiltshire.However I would put a pound to a penny that both other players (and I`m assuming that Pep is seriously interested) have given permission to City,to view those medical findings.
I think the club will be at least one step ahead of you on that score.So let them worry not the fans,as we know fuck all.

Laporte and gundogan have bone injuries that will completely heal and not muscle problems like vinny so no reason to not buy them,wiltshire is a little shit who imo is using us to get a new contract at the arses so won't be coming imo

If 17mil is the asking price....then no reason why we cant buy Gundogan (injury or no injury) as his signing isnt going to impact our spending for the summer. At a bigger price bracket this might be a risky move but the long term potential of this signing and at this price, makes it a win-win for us.....I just wish Txiki would close some of these deals....find it really frustrating that Bayern can close Renato Sanches deal in 2 days after reports that the rags werent moving fast enough and we've reportedly been in talks for "months" for players like Gundogan and Laporte and still not closed even when one of them has a release clause we've rumoured to be willing to trigger.....

I dislocated my kneecap - it has never been the same since. I think we should pass on this player.
