It's Quiet 18 - Wanna ring the bell?

Have no doubt - City will spend big this summer the new rules will prevent us from doing so next summer

No chance of Nunes leaving. We can't afford the financial hit and he's shown promise, plenty for Pep to work with in pre season. Gomez can probably find a starting spot but not much point of us selling him for 10m and having to go and find someone else's so will be up to him if he pushes for it.

No one has the money for Alvarez.

Yeah i personally think Nunez has shown some good flashes, but if it is really true we are looking at Bruno and/or Paqueta then someone needs to go imo. I guess if Bernardo really does go, then maybe Paqueta takes that spot? But i do think if Bruno comes in, something needs to give in that middle.

Gomez i just can't see any way of him ever making a dent in the first team. Unlike someone such as Rico or Bobb who actually get game time, even when we are in the shitter i couldn't see Pep starting Gomez - could be wrong but i could see us looking to move him on.

PSG will have money now Mbappe is off the bill, they'll want a name to fill the void so there's an outside chance. I think there's an outside chance of it, but agree there's not a lot of funds out there for anyone to pay for him.

I think Nunes will probably go, Gomez obviously, i could imagine a world where Alvarez also leaves if he's offered a starting role and we get big money in. From the loan kids obviously if Southampton are promoted then they have to pay the £20m for THB, Doyle is already done for £4.3m, Delap will prob be gone for £5-10m, McAtee maybe closer to £20m mark? Couto i can't see staying either, £20 - 30m would seem the going rate but who knows. Phillips we're probably looking closer to £15-20m imo now, just have to write it off. Cancelo will be 30 in a few days, Barca can't afford him and realistically who is going to pay top dollar? PSG are probably looking to rebuild but they have Hakimi and Mendes at fullback already, think he will be a tough sell for good money. Perrone probably goes back out on loan. We should probably be close to £100m in with the players out on loan and close to another £100m at least for the guys that have been close to the first team. £200m in gives us a nice packet to use up, offsetting against what we spent on them i think this could be a good market for us.

I’m guessing you haven’t noticed that Alvarez made more Premier League appearances than any other member of City’s squad. Having only not appeared in a whole two matches he is unhappy (scratches head).

I think even if Bernardo stays we could get Paqueta or Bruno. Both if Bernardo goes. Plenty of games next year and IF pep builds some trust in Nunes then there is enough game time.

Yeah I agree that with Ake and Gvardiol capable at Lb then Gomez unlikely to play much but will be up to him I reckon.

Yep, but he's still behind Haaland & KDB - obviously Kevin is getting on so maybe Pep has something in mind. I'm not saying Alvarez is unhappy, all i'm saying is I can see a scenario if someone did have money and went in for him with the offer of guaranteed first place, he might think about it.

Not only that, Guardiola has consistently singled him out for praise throughout the season.
