It's Quiet 17 - Glory Thread

You think Alvarez will be able to play right away? He's moving from the Argentine League to the top of the Premier League, that's a huge step up.

As the post above says, we'll get Haaland but the goal tally of our other forward players is poor compared to Liverpools.

We haven't replaced Sane/Torres as well as Aguero.
We'll probably play him as a left back.
 
Sterling holds all the cards,i can see him doing a Milner (albeit without the false promises)

He definitely needs to go,he is the least City type player in the first team picture and he is blocking the way of someone who could consistently improve us.
Hold as many cards as he wants, world cup in November he needs to play

Alverez, Haaland, Jack, Phil, Berny, Palmer, Mahrez even Kev all looking for 3 places

Sterling can sit on his arse for all I care, he's better off moving & enjoy his next few years in France I recon PSG..
 
Would be pleased for Gabby. He would tear up La Liga. Would need to insert a sell-on clause.
Gabby & Sterling for a combined 90m if we can.

Sorts out all incomings & covers there wages

I would keep Ake hes done a good job the last couple of months

We also have Ferns wages to sort out any incoming HM to help Rodri?
 
It's Sterling we need to shift.

Absolutely no issue with Jesus staying if he wants to.

For Sterling to leave, we might have to accept less than £50m in his final year.
Yeah, for me it just seems that if we let his deal run down he will 100% walk over to a chelsea or back to liverpool, don't get the sense he bleeds blue particularly and I don't think he'd have an issue doing it.

It's probably worth taking a slightly below value deal from real or PSG to ensure that doesn't happen.
 
Actually don't mind shuffling the deck a bit with our wingers. If we lost sterling and Jesus this window might create a new dynamic across the front line with whoever we brought in.
 
It’s why Liverpool have been neck and neck with us over last few years.
Their front 3 and they have brought in players to rotate and the didn’t miss salah and mane when they don’t play.

our ever changing front 3 is toothless in compassion.

digging gabby and raz for another winger plus Alvarez ans hopefully the big robot from Norway will see us back smashing teams for fun

What makes you think they would want him?
 
I am happy to have both Raz and Gabby in the squad but it may be time this summer for one or both to move on. It depends on whether they are prepared to be squad players. I think Mahrez, Foden and Grealish are our best widemen and we will hopefully have two new forwards brought in in the summer. We also have emerging talents like Palmer and Delap.

I'd prefer to keep Gabby if one had to go.

Barca will offer 35 to 40 million euros for Jesus due to contract situation. According to reports
Surprised there isn’t more interest for him. Obviously needs to move this summer but you get the feeling he’ll be much better with regular game time and some confidence.

PSG are losing Mbappe and Messi is a year older, they are going to sign a top level wide forward and there's only so many options. You'd assume they'll go after Salah as no 1 priority but if he stays at liverpool and you want to sign a big fat famous name as PSG like to do, who else could they get with sterling's numbers/experience etc and at a reduced fee too.

Makes a lot of sense to me. I do think we will be motivated to sell if he doesn't renew this summer because otherwise a prem rival on a free looks realistic.

A bit premature to call jack one of our best widemen , pal, he’s been well off it for a large portion of the season and despite thinking he will improve, displays against piss poor opposition, like United, is not what we are looking for at that price tag….

Be careful what we wish for on the Gabby and Raz score, that’s all I’m saying!
 
Ederson/Bazunu
Cancelo/Walker
Dias/Stones
Laporte/Aké
New left back
Rodri/Tchouaméni
De Bruyne
Bernardo/Gundogan
Sterling/Mahrez
Haaland/Álvarez
Foden/Grealish

Probably won’t sign a new left back but I’d like a new one. One of Jesus/Sterling will leave, more likely being Jesus I think. Fernandinho leaves at the end of the season like to see him replaced with Tchouaméni. Bazunu to replace Steffen too - others will know more than me but what I’ve seen from him has been very good.

spot on with Grelish....sparks of brightness at times but way to ordinary for a vast majority of the season.......hopefully better next season as we need him to be
