It's Quiet 17 - Glory Thread

Re Pol's article, I'm not keen on the idea that Zinchenko, Jesus and Sterling have to leave before signing Cucurella/LB and Phillips. If valuations for those three aren't met, then the implication is that we don't get a starter left footed fullback and DM depth - which seems mad considering the amount of games they will be playing

Barca get Bernie and we get a boobie prize

I don't think that's what he means. I think it's just a case of numbers and there needing to be an outgoing for there to be an incoming from a squad registration point of view. Jesus will certainly go, and Zinchenko will probably go. The fact that City are speaking to Brighton suggests that it isn't a case of "we'll see" but more "we'll get this done".

Rosler: 'Erling told me that he'd be a City player one day'

Colin Rosler and Erling Haaland had an immediate connection when they first met playing for Norway Under-15s.

Why would a better keeper than steffen want to be a 2nd in our team, where he can play as starter elsewhere.

Sometimes fans asking the impossible wanting a world class keeper to be a backup is not realistic.

I always prefer an older keeper as back up
Someone happy to sit on the bench and coach a little
Someone like Foster at Watford that kind of profile
It concerns me when a young keeper comes that they may lack ambition

I've no doubt Pol has been close to stuff on some occasions, but quoting Catalunya radio doesn't do his reputation for sensible stuff much good over here. Also, we are supposed to have 120m burning a hole in our kandoura, from last year.

If Bernie goes would we actually need Philips… just asking as I’m sure FDJ could play that role

Steffen was good back then tbh

He hasn’t gone to shit tho it’s not possible it’s not like he is now past it in fact he should still be getting better

Use the extension Unpaywall. And while I was looking for that, I found this .....



Twitter has its uses after all.

Strike that - doesn't work, but in my defence, I was distracted :)
