It's Quiet 16 - Txiki grinders

[wolviedinho]

Imagine if we can have both Haaland and Kane - think we'd blow people away. Kane can drop into Midfield and could replace Gundo - suppose money wise we wouldn't be able to afford that - happily move on Sterling & Gundo for that option.

Stay off the Crystal Mais ;)

Guessing we are after Haaland and a DM in the Summer.

I hope a winger as well, lack of pace in this side is an issue that needs addressing, it's good when there's control but when teams sit back and get predictable you have to have more options.

Aggregators going to aggregator

There's literally no way on Earth City go in for Kane this Summer. I doubt Txiki will ever do any form of business with Spurs ever again.

So is Jurrien Timber. I bet he's on several clubs radars already. Looks exceptional

Supposedly going to Burnley as a replacement for Chris Wood.

Surely if teams are in a low block the last thing you need is pace as the whole team you are playing against is in front of you. A David Silva passing type I could see.

I loved the crazy speed The Centurions had but that was before everybody realised they couldn’t attack us without leaving themselves wide open.

Rodri plays too many games so another DM after a striker is I think all we need unless we still want a full back but we seem to have a lot of cover for that area now.

Yes but against very deep blocks Sterling has been our most successful winger to date for a reason. Yes he can also ghost, but when he's on it he uses his pace to make those runs inside/outside. Pace helps so much. It's a different option. When there's no pace, sometimes, even if you're creative, they can get comfortable as the defensive side because they know there's no need to worry about any pace from opposition, so they just stay more compact without being moved around as much. Palace away was a perfect example, second half was crying out for a Raheem appearance, or Jesus even. Just to give us a different dynamic.

I know we've been linked to a few wingers, honestly would love if we could get Doku into our squad.

Count us out of Doku ;)

Count us out of Doku ;)

Are City developing a squad for post Pep?

What I mean by that is, obviously 99% of other coaches need a striker.
99% of coaches need a left back etc.

Are we able to plan post Pep with him here?

sad , he was on my top list
