It's Quiet 18 - Wanna ring the bell?

A Summer of Doku, Paqueta, Kovacic and Gvardiol would be fantastic. A real mix of attributes.

Only real losses are Mahrez and Gundo in my eyes. If any others leave (Cancelo, Laporte) I won’t be too bothered. Brilliant players but the team has progressed past them.
Agreed 100%! However I think a replacement will be sought for Cancelo.

Laporte's replacement is already here in the form of Gvardiol, who Pep says is fit & ready to play a part tomorrow night, as is Nathan Aké.

According to Rennes fans, he's been injury free for 12 months, but lost his place to a player who was transferred in January.

Doku came in to replace him & took a few weeks to get up to speed, but once he hit top gear, he was flying.

His 6 goals from March onward helped Rennes take an unlikely 4th place.

City will always do due diligence, but at circa £30m, this guy's seriously worth a punt from what I've seen of him.

You'll find explosive sprinters are always prone to muscle & joint injuries, because of the stress they put on their bodies under.

With careful physical management, I'm sure City can help him over his injuries, & get the best out of him. He's a seriously exciting talent!
