guess Txiki also need to set some time aside to sort out the CFG loan army. what the fuck is the status on Couto, Kayky, Palaversa, Diego Rosa, Issa Kabore, Herrera, Moreno, Arzani etc we spent 5-10-m on each of them on average, some wonderkids in there, is there just one who make the cut at City first team, some has been with us for 2-3-4 years now.will be honest have no idea how they performed overall last season.
do recall we rejected some good bid for Kabore last summer, wonder we get similar offer for him, maybe not.
if they are all flops, time to cash in and write down the as losses as I dont expect to get serious fees for any of them.
we seemed to make bit of money in the previous batch with maybe Harrison and the another one shifted to Huddersfield, Maffeo maybe, Douglas Luiz, but these recent youngsters aint looking good to me. scouting on them maybe lacked something. the bit of hype around Kayky, next Neymar etc, next thing we know he is selling doner and kebabs somewhere in Manchester...
Couto seems to be the best of this batch, did kind of well at Girona (10+ starts in league and 10+ times subbed in, not a regular but at least got some playing time), but very short rightback. not sure he is higher level than Maffeo who flopped badly after we sold him.
