Anyone heard any transfer rumours or where i might find them?

This is desending into a bitching thread.

IMHO IMO IMHO re-signing Navas is condemning Maffeo to the same fate we've seen for the last dozen kids that were good enough to get a chance but never did, and it's a collossal mistake by Guardiola, who should take a leaf out of Pochettino, Koeman, Klopp and van Gaal's books and just give the kid a chance instead of waiting until he's so pissed off at the players being put ahead of him that he leaves on a free.

Can't argue with any of this to be honest.
 
I was so hoping for us to get Theo Hernandez as the back up Left Back, but now Real Madrid have snapped him up.

You beat me to it, he keeps stating things as fact and when he's pulled up on his 'facts' he substitutes other 'facts' and just forgets his original statement. Almost troll like you'd have to say.

It's a discussion about what's happening with our right back situation and that involves both Maffeo and Navas.

If everyone stopped getting arsey with each other then there would be zero issue.

On that note, I think Walker is probably our most advanced potential transfer at the minute.

That being the case, it seems unlikely that Navas would be anything more than a stop-gap solution, especially given the nature of the rumoured deal being only one year.

Ultimately, City will want a young, long term option at right back, as is the way the squad is going as a whole. I could see Maffeo being developed with that in mind.

TBF if Maffeo is being included in the squad next season then that affects our transfer strategy, I for one think he will.

I'm not sure. He was in the squad to start this season, but if Girona do indeed get promoted then there would be an argument to seeing Maffeo handle some regular playtime in La Liga, rather than have him warm the bench awaiting a Walker breakdown.

I have no doubt he'll impress over the summer though.

Well that's discuss then and how about people do it with a bit of respect to other members if they disagree with their opinion instead of dragging it on for page after page
Maffeo should go on loan again keep navas for a year then bring maffeo into the first team if pep thinks he is ready to make the step up

Pep has already said that he prefers a smaller squad but realises that it's just not possible in the pl, I think that's why navas is getting the 1 year extension as he's very adaptable on that wing.

Completely agree here, things get needlessly out of hand.

Like I said last week, if Navas is in solely as an emergency backup rather than for regular rotation then I can understand it. And if it means that we end up with a top quality RB and saving some extra funds for other positions then I'm fully behind it. But I guess those questions won't be answered until at least the start of the season.

I'm finally warming to the idea of Walker. Any word on the latest rumoured fee?
