Manù Kone. He is word class. But you should buy him last summer. Now is very expensive.Who's the best athletic, hard working midfielder in Italy? Sign them. They don't even need to be amazing, they just need to be able to run and get stuck in.
We are going to get tucked up in January because we failed to ‘fix the roof when the sun was shining’ - the club will have to suck that up. What alternative is there at this stage? We are sinking down the league.We are dealing with hypotheticals here - but what fee is big enough for us to say No, we rather play Gundo or Lewis again.
We did the same with rice and we end paying enough for Nunes.
Thanks for sharing. That is reassuring to hear, although it was pretty disappointing to see us already ruling out Guimaraes and Zubimendi. Hope they can pull a surprise or two out of the bag, because it feels like everyone needs a lift right now.

Zubi is going to be like Rice though - if they don’t want the move, it ain’t happening and we shouldn’t blame the club for that.
Serge Aurier is available on a free too.Deli Alli is fit again.
I don’t disagree with you - being over cautious on fees is going to cost us big time.Zubi - I don’t even care about. Clearly he loves Bilbao and Spain weather. Nothing wrong in not looking for new pastures.
My point is more to do with City’s stance of not paying fees because it’s not what they think the player is worth for.
Simple business tells us it’s the seller that decide what is a particular player worth for.
They need to overpay to stop the bleeding and my outside view tells me Newcastle need to sell to buy and they are okay with selling Bruno rather than Isak or Gordon.
Isak scored a hattrick for them today. They would want some cash to make sure they are in a condition to say no to offers that may come for Isak come this summer.
Bruno G and Dani Almo present good opportunities to buy and i would hate for City to take the ethical high road of not paying when conditions clearly demand the same.
We paid 110 million for Mendy and Walker - a record total for fullbacks because we were clearly purging the old Pellegrini squad.
It brought dividends.
We need to show the same ambition now unless it’s the charges.
Then I am okay for Mcatee and Reilly being our main midfield in League 1.
I second this but to be honest, I don’t even have much faith in them to get this next segment of signings right.It's just nice to hear that they know they're wrong. Impossible to ignore at this point though I guess.
Not in this way. I can take not winning a league perfectly fine, this is something else.No other team has ever won 4 in a row. It was bound to catch up with us eventually.
