It's Quiet 17 - Glory Thread

[SWPISHOME]

Same.. I thought he looked class vs Leicester in the Community Shield a couple of years ago? or was that this year? haha. Electric speed. Real shame.

That was last season. I thought he was our brightest player that day. Surely we will have a buy back clause in the contract.

A fair number of outgoings from the youth team or maybe it's just that, like buses they are all happening at once. A lot of talented youth throughout all age groups at City they won't all make it but a shame to see them go without having more of a chance. Have to trust the club on who they think will make it with us and of course the players themselves will have to do what they feel is best for them.

So much for holding out for £50m

Can I just point out that who ever we sign above and beyond now - when we look back on this window the BIG signing is Haaland.

With Alverez who I think is under estimated to date, it’s a great window already.

Phillips incoming plus coco the clown if the price is right.

With gabby (sadly) out for what seems like a good fee, There does seem to be some additional fund raising going on though too doesn’t there :-)

also selling both sterling and jesus without bringing in anyone with pace is dicey

Every fucking time!!
Man City get a guaranteed xxx
Man City agree a fee that could rise up to xxxx
So we always pay the maximum and get the minimum
Fuck off!

Re the Jesus & Phillips deals? Jesus cost £27m in 2017 and has a book value of around £4.5m with a year left on his contract - selling for 10x his book value with a year left is amazing business.

Buying Phillips for £42m is good business - 26, England regular and 2 years left on the contract

Sancho 2.0? Or not as good?

Sancho was a far superior prospect tbf.
