It's Quiet 18 - Wanna ring the bell?

I doubt Doyle will make it at City

Kaden Braithwaite tho, i liked his first start

He has it he still going for a left footed centre back and in pre season he looks fine still a lot of growth to do but we will see

Ages of these players?

Foden
Doku
Bob
Savino
Lewis
Gvardiol
Haaland

Doyle will be back next season

Think we need a couple of youngish midfielders and young up coming striker then we set

That was my point and I agree we need to address this asap.

However, currently we have KDB, Gundo, Kova who are all in their 30s. Without Rodri they are going to be worked even harder.
Out of these three two of them are still playing international football, so even more games there. And that was MY point about an ageing team.

We've got the 5th oldest squad in the league and a relatively small squad to boot.
My post in the 'squad planning' thread pointed out that we don't have a plethora of youngsters available (currently) who can take the strain in the CC, either.

I really like Jacob Wright and think he's got massive potential, but we are definitely short in the midfield areas.

He was a massively popular at Sunderland, not sure of his success at Cov, but the Norwich fans love him.
Definitely a talented lad.

Personally, I think we will go for Branthwaite at Everton as that option.

Only Three players plus Walker we need 2/3 top quality players under 26 in the summer or January

I think we are waiting on the 'outcome' of the court case and Pep (yeah I've seen the rumours this morning) and then we will know which direction we're going.

Would Sporting sell Diomande in january?

If the money is right the Portuguese teams always sell mate?
