It's Quiet 18 - Wanna ring the bell?

Right hear me out on this one- juventus want rid of pogba- city wanted him last summer and so did guardiola. As a stop gap for a year or so he’d be no older than a gundogan but offers the multi functional type player that guardiola likes while also being able to replace the goals/assists. Injury prone players have been sorted out by city medical team in the past also. I know it’s mad, but if they were keen last summer why not this summer? There is no denying under pep he could be phenomenal
In this scenario is Pogba paying us to play?
 
Ederson
Stones
Dias
Gvardiol
Rodri
Kovacic
De Bruyne
Bernardo Silva
Foden
Grealish
Haaland

Might we just go 3 at the back next season with Bernardo and Grealish working back and Kovacic dropping in alongside Rodri when required?
 
Sane or coman
Sane will not be back at City.

Even if Mahrez went I don’t think City go for a pacey winger, a wide man in the mould of what we have out wide now, but don’t see the pace winger thing at all.

It’s fairly clear from how City setup (and won a treble), we don’t play pacey wingers.

Wish I had your faith in Phillips.

Thought he was an average player for Leeds and thought at the time that whoever suggested City to buy him last summer was high on spice.
My biggest fear with Kalvin has been his lack of energy and pace. He’s been a plodder for us. If that is his limit then I agree with you, if he comes back with an extra bit of mobility, pace and drive then he could turn it around.

I didn’t see much of him at Leeds but he always seemed key to how they played. I’ve vague recollections of a great performance at Spurs (maybe 2-4 or similar) where he was excellent.

He was very good for England for a spell (usually with “that ****” Rice ;-) but we’ve seen very little from KP so far.

We need something from him if he stays. For me, working your bollocks off and getting around the park are basics, the majority of our squad do that as natural as breathing.

Like Jack saying he felt much more part of things this season, Kalvin needs to strive for that if he’s to stay.
