It's Quiet 17 - Glory Thread

50m is quickly creeping towards the norm for a decent player.Besides,we have quite a kitty....and with the relative bargain prices we are paying elsewhere,this fee can easily be offset.
Why are people constantly stressing the fees element...none of us should be concerned about the fees because in reality none of us has a clue regarding City's financial details...if they feel a fee is appropriate, incoming or outgoing, that's all well and good with me...As a fan I care about a player's profile...how they can improve the team and such...City obviously still know best when it comes to building a squad as well, but that's a big part of the fun in being a fan...being an amateur squad Director, manager, etc....I could give a rat's ass on spending $30 mil or $45 mil as long as the guy can play at our level and strengthen the team...
 
I don't understand why city fans hate Mahrez so much, like everyone is worried about sterling but why not mahrez, like i also like sterling but why not mahrez?
Very few fans really. But, they post a lot. One main reason is that Mahrez on the RW makes their preferred player stay on the bench. Other than that, who knows.

Two reasons, I suspect.

1. Cole Palmer seems to have the exact same skill set as Riyad.
2. He doesn’t seem to try as hard as others. Similar to how Gundogan was perceived for quite a long time.
 
Few interesting updates from Sam Lee's new piece (please save it if you don't like him, I don't care):
  • Not looking to make the squad any bigger
  • Really did want Pogba on a free
  • Phillips and Cucurella are it, nothing else planned
  • Jesus probably leaves, everyone else probably stays
  • Raheem apparently asked for a loan move last fall when he wasn't playing

What does "Not looking to make the squad any bigger" mean? If Phillips and Cucurella join us, our squad will be bigger.

It’s not the fees so much for me, it’s the fact that the left back went to Brighton for £16M twelve months ago. From what I’ve seen he’s not the name on everyone’s lips every week, so he can’t be that much better than he was then. We were well in for a left back, so how did we miss him at £16M, that’s all.
