Wtf are we doing. We were so light at fullback already before this Cancelo loan deal?!! Are we just writing this season off???

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?

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

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.
 
We definitely need to add Bellingham and a fullback in this squad (maybe another one depending on Walker). I also think we need another winger

You think we will be active today at all? Or is it a case of go with what we have and don’t panic?

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.

Stop biting.

And stop posting such drivvle that draws attention to yourself.

It's only your posts that are ridiculous and stick out but we've discussed that before.

Ah well.

Aww thanks so much. I like how you constantly comment on my posts but then get annoyed at me replying to you. You make no sense as usual. Yawn.

I think for example Bellingham, Kvarachkala and a very good full back would be great.

We need a pacy winger too.

Sam Lee and Pol Balus done an article this morning about the whole affair saying it's a simple "no" to whether we are going to sign a replacement.

Genuinely hate how lax we are on transfers in Jan.

This thought is showing to be a bit of an unexpected situation. We wouldn’t have someone lined up if we were not expecting a departure.

The player has proven to be a rotten egg within the group. He had to go and injuries permitting, it will prove to have been the correct decision to make. Players will most likely be boosted by it and bonded.

Cheers for the updates mate!

The only chance of a deal I can see us getting done would be for a player coming to the end of their contract - otherwise we’ll get absolutely stung on the fees at this late hour.

Fulham would want at least £40m for Robinson, and Wolves even more for Ait-Nouri - and neither of them are anywhere near that good!

Guerrero at Dortmund is in his final six months, as is Alex Grimaldo at Benfica - both players we’ve looked at in the past.

We could probably get either for about £15m considering they’ll be leaving for fuck all in a few months - which is more our style.

Outside of that, it’s Ake and Laporte at left back til the summer!

Just in general, to be honest.

We've made some amazing signings over the last six or seven years but we tend to just chill whenever there's a position in urgent need of filling.

I said it yesterday and I'll say it again, I don't understand how the club will do everything in their power to gain even the most seemingly insignificant advantage over every other club we're competing against, from counteracting the strengths of relegation candidates to telling ball boys to play with intensity for ninety minutes. And yet, when it comes to signing players in positions we need we're like "nah, mate. Tactics, innit."

Annoyed?
Woosh.

I constantly comment on your posts as they are different to others and like i said they stick out.

Doesn't take a brain surgeon to work out you're a wum.

Double yawn!
