Would you sooner we kept a poisonous presence,one who clearly thinks he calls the shots and attempts to disrespect and undermine the manager? Or do you think its better he is fucked off and it's made known such behaviour will not be tolerated?Wtf are we doing. We were so light at fullback already before this Cancelo loan deal?!! Are we just writing this season off???
The ramifications of keeping an individual who is prepared to cause such unrest,and that attitude being seen as acceptable,would stretch well beyond us being weaker at full back.

Might have already been mentioned, and probably bollocks... But Chilwell linked to us for a last minute move this morning.

We are going to need a lot of players at this rate. With players aging out and wanting to move on. Looks like Cancelo will go. Could be Gundogan. I think an CB will leave Also aging out shortly will be Walker Mahrez (linked with moves away last summer) De Bruyne.
So might have to get a few free transfer in or sell certain players so that we have more funds available.
Our needs seem to be the following in order Left back Wingers and CM
So what about the following options
Tielamans, Laimer, Rabiot, Kroos, Keita, Aouar,
From an age profile it’s Aouar Tielamans or Laimer. In terms of links it’s could be Tielamans Rabiot Kroos Aouar have all been linked at some point I think. Transfermarket has Tielamans as the most valuable. I don’t know who is best I would probably go for Tielamans or Aouar.
Get one and go for Bellingham please
In terms of wingers it’s one of the following. Messi, Zaha, Asensio, Bamba Don’t think any stand out or have been linked recently or fit age profile maybe get one for the left or right and get a prime target for the other with remaining funds
At left back the there are a few options Guerreiro, Grimaldo, Bensebaini. Could probably do with two of them but again maybe go for one and use funds to get first choice no idea who.
There are a few CB available all look good don’t need one but I can see a CB wanting out maybe two even if one leave we don’t need a new one but could use this opportunity to add to the squad and sell CBs and raise funds options are Skrinair, Ndicka, Soyuncu, Martinez
Thoughts
We don't need a lot of players, we need three key, top shelf ones.
A top class midfielder, a full-back for both sides.
Pep has made his mind up on Rico, as he has done on Ake. He loves Jack.
Walker won't be going anywhere just yet.
Phillips isn't going anywhere, nor Mahrez and Pep wants Gundo to stay for another year.
Anything else is dependent on Laporte and Bernie leaving in the summer.
Foden will become even more important and receive extra responsibility.
City spend £300m this summer on quality not quantity.
You think we will be active today at all? Or is it a case of go with what we have and don’t panic?We don't need a lot of players, we need three key, top shelf ones.

The arrogance is astonishing. We are doing what we did with Zinchenko and Cucurella. We Let Zinchenko go and didn't have the replacement in already. When we went to purchase the player the club raised the price by 20mil, the same will happen with Fulham, just watch
We paid £100m for Jack.
I don't think we can have too many complaints about spending over the odds on a position we need.

We have briefed nothing doing, but that doesn't really mean much.
We reacted to sign Akanji and it would not surprise me to see us do something today, even if on loan.
Agents will be reacting to the Cancelo news and chancing their arm.

That leads to 2 questions for me:
1. How much are we expecting Bellingham to cost?
2. How many top fullbacks are there out there who can play both sides? (I can't think who fits the bill)
No you misunderstood. I think Cancelo should go 100%……it’s not planning to sign a replacement and our general LB issue that I’m unhappy about.Would you sooner we kept a poisonous presence,one who clearly thinks he calls the shots and attempts to disrespect and undermine the manager? Or do you think its better he is fucked off and it's made known such behaviour will not be tolerated?
