It's Quiet 18 - Wanna ring the bell?

Again, obviously our base is higher (which I said in my post), so obviously we will be fine (fighting for all the titles). And Pep is the best ever, you could give him an even worse squad and he would still be fighting for titles.

In isolation though, no one can say this window has been good for City (in fact if we didn't have a brilliant academy and making some good money there, the window could easily be a 3/10), which is what some are saying. That is where the hypocrisy comes in.

I am just saying it's funny see how the goal posts of some have been changing all summer long from: we will get stronger and sign Bellingham and keep our best players to we will have 4-5 new exciting signings, to we are the treble winners and we are still competitive and now we can give the youngsters a shot.

Or are you gonna tell me the discourse hasn't changed?

In fairness we lost Gundogan and instantly replaced him with Kovacic who looks like he’ll fit like a glove. As like for like as you’d expect. Better defensively but less affective in the box. But Gundogan was unique.

Gvadiol has come in for i presume Laporte, who is still here. Mahrez left on a whim, we are working on Doku and have 3 very capable young players comfortable in that position and Foden and Bernardo.

You don’t sign players based on a short(ish) term injury. Foden/Bernardo will have to fill in for Kev.

We’ve had a long standing interest in Paqueta. But circumstances outside our control have scuppered that.

The window looked like Mahrez, Gundogan & Laporte out. Kovacic, Paqueta, Gvadiol & Doku in. So, the plan was/is to gain a player..

And the Raven, never flitting, still is sitting, still is sitting
On the pallid bust of Pallas just above my chamber door;
And his eyes have all the seeming of a demon’s that is dreaming,
And the lamp-light o’er him streaming throws his shadow on the floor;
And my soul from out that shadow that lies floating on the floor
Shall be lifted—nevermore!


Alas its just the transfer forum flapping at the chamber door
as it pays for @Ric view forever more
