surprised he hasnt tried felix again yet.@tolmie's hairdoo you mentioned last week our old friend Jorge had made his yearly approach to City about Messi - assuming we've given a straight "no thanks" and there's nothing to see there?
Paddy Power have us at 14/1 - let me know before I stick a ten spot on ;)

Of course they are rotation pieces. How fortunate have we been this season not to incur any major, longer term injuries to KDB, Gundo, Rodri, and Bernardo? Especially considering that KDB and Gundo are past 30 and Rodri plays over 90% of the minutes. Even Bernardo's version of a "break" from midfield is playing wide up top or now even in the back. Is anyone going to argue that having a Kovacic in the squad would have made us weaker? Same for Guerreiro to some extent. Who knew Cancelo would implode to the extent Pep had to banish him. And Gomez, while young and a bit talented, can't come anywhere near Guerreiro's level of experience at both club and country including in the UCL. These 2 guys are full internationals on top national sides. Neither are stars but both are more than useful on a squad like City. You can't have stars in their absolute primes acting as squad players. It's not sustainable. What is sustainable is having guys like Kovacic and Guerreiro on 2 or 3 year deals and rotating those roles to new incoming similar players as you go supporting the squad and providing extremely valuable depth. Sorry but if the need arose in a big game to replace Gundo or KDB I'm 1000% more at ease looking to the bench and seeing Kovacic rather than Cole Palmer.Guerreiro and Kovacic is us making a real push to take full advantage of having Pep? Really? Guerreiro and Kovacic? If they are rotation options, they’re great. If they are to be integral then we’re weaker. I can’t see it any other way than that.
Our finances are in rude health. We have spent a fair amount in recent years but our income is going up and up at a much faster rate.We were prepared to spend 100m plus on kane alone...and then spent 55m on haaland...do I agree we have the spare cash even from that
Kevin DeBruyne : )WTF is a clutch player? Seen it a few times recently on here
If that's the case, which we do not know yet, then it's a terrible transfer imo. The midfield clearly needs depth. Im still hopeful that City offers that 2+ year deal and Gundo stays.Kovacic has been part of the plan since the turn of the year, as has been Gvardiol.
Sadly, I've always felt he was being lined up for Gundo's role, however.
Nah he just wants to offload Bernardo cheaply to ANY club. He aint a friend.surprised he hasnt tried felix again yet.
Think you are a bit lost there pal!surprised he hasnt tried felix again yet.
