It's Quiet 18 - Wanna ring the bell?

Very much doubt he’s going anywhere. Only ones I expect to leave are Cancelo, Laporte, Gomez and possibly Bernardo. 4 out 4 in.

Cancelo - Guerreiro
Laporte - Gvardiol
Gomez - Anyone really (+ youth)
Bernardo - Kimmich/Mac Allister?
Phillips - Lavia (unrealistic)

Pretty much that,except I’m not expecting Phillips to leave.

Im expecting 4 out, 5 in. Still missing that attacker. Palmer needs a loan, game time.

I get what you’re saying but there’s a huge difference spending £20m on a potentially injury prone players vs spending £130m

You should learn by now that City didn't give a shit what anyone thinks about their transfer policy, we buy grealish 100m and We buy Gundo when he got in career ending injury back then. Shows alot that City only buy player when they fit for the team or not regardless their price tag or injury records.

City maybe don’t give a shit what anyone thinks but deals still have to make financial and logical sense. Hence us backing out of many targets in the past.
I think you missed the point of my post

I don't think we need more LB cover, even without Gomez. We would have Ake, Gvardiol, Guerreiro, Akanji, and Lewis, all capable of covering LB. That's plenty. Also, Kalvin will probably stay now, and since Kimmich and Mac Allister are most likely out of our reach for various reasons, it remains to be seen who can replace Bernie. There are links regarding Kovacic, but it's underwhelming for Bernie. Maybe we should incorporate Maxi/James? I don't know.

Going from Kdb - Gundo - BErnardo to Kdb - Gundo/whoever - Mcatee/Perrone is not ideal for a top level club

All will depend on Gundo and Bernie.

Wouldnt the club know by now what each of those two want....they are usually very good at knowing early what our players want (you did say a week or so ago that Gundo had probably done a 180 and was now looking like staying.

Bernardo leaving is a huge issue though.....you cant replace him with a like for like as not many (if any exist) - Bellingham i saw more as a gundo replacement if anything - and Kovacic certainly doesnt replace Bernardo either....

Crazy situation ALL players involved in the World Cup should be having the summer off.

That would make far too much sense though so of course it would never happen.

 

[talkativesprout]

No idea of the severity, he had been playing with it since before World Cup.

If it's that bad, he wouldn't pass a medical anywhere (unless related to Roque Santa-Cruz)

Is Mark Hughes's agent still working?
