Rose one good season and its 50m worth a punt for 25m but hey not our money and Rose in our side is a major improvement, my motto is forget how much if a club can afford the fee and a player improves a team its a no brainer of a buy.
 
Think its hard for us to sell lots of players, would think its more likely that those out of contract will leave and some players will get a stay of execution
Out:
Willy
Sagna
Zabba
Clichy
Toure
Navas
Delph
Kompany
Fernando
Nolito
Hart
Bony
Nasri
Mangala
Denayer
Probably get about 70-80 million there

In:
Ederson
Fabinho
Bonucci
Henrichs
Rose
Dahoud
Isco
Coman
Thats a solid 220 million at least
Add maffeo, angelino, garcia and roberts to the squad
GK
Ederson, Bravo, Gunn
RB
Fabinho, Maffeo, Henrichs
CB
Bonucci, Stones, Otamendi, Kolarov
LB
Rose, Henrichs, Angelino
DM
Dahoud, Fahinho, Fernandinho, Garcia
AM
KDB, Silva, Isco, Gundogan
Wingers
Sterling Sane Coman Roberts
Strikers
Jesus, Aguero, Kelechi
17 foreigners by my count. Good to go

You say the bolded part, and then list 15 that will be "out", lmao.
 
Can see us going for Rose.

With Clichy going and Delph very likely going I think we will be looking at bringing in at least 1 or 2 HG players, one of which is Roberts hopefully.

I wouldn't completely rule out Kelechi going out on loan either.
 
The selling part has got to be so harder as are a position is so clear, unless there are 2 or more interested parties we are screwed.

Hart is very sellable to the point the decision will probably be accept less and sell aboard or get more and sell in the UK and we all know how well he'll play against us!

Nasri head butts aside has been great and I can see him going Saville.

Mangala and Bony I think we have a challenge there.
Mangala has probably been Valencia's best defender and been very good. We will have little problem with him.

Definitely a major improvement. I would value him at 30m tops. But then add his English-ness and the fact that by buying him we are weakening one of our main rivals, he also just signed a new contract a few months ago. Rose is probably the best left back in the league, would love him here. Imagine Rose, Sane and Silva combing on the left side!!!
 
It's just the Mirror putting two and two together. There's absolutely nothing in their article that backs up their claim about Rose. It's just 'Pep wants...' like they know what he wants.
 
If we do sign Rose then we need Zaba to sit him down on his first day and say "Stop being an insufferable little shit and you're gonna be great here".

I mean that. If he cuts out the diving, overacting, snide digs and bad tackles then, in this team, he'll be one of the best LB's in the world.
I'd prefer any of Bernat, Gaya, Sidibé and Henrichs though among others. And not because I think they're better.

Hey I appreciate Samir has had many rumours about his sex life whirling around, but it's a bit drastic to see him go full Saville #yewtree
 
Danny Rose is a fantastic left back, proven Prem experience, fast, decent going forward, shown he can do it in a top side. He'd be an amazing signing and exactly what we need.

Would show the media and their sheeplike followers that we are a bigger club than Spurs as well.
 
Summer window is always the same, we have this great expectation of doing loads of early business, get all giddy when we hear about possible bids and then wait whilst we try to unload the deadwood. Get to end of window and end up sending about 5/6 out on loan whilst subsidizing wages. Rinse repeat.

Obviously we have the luxury of the few being out of contract so we can get some early deals in the bag, but what I hope for more than anything is that we've worked hard on the few outgoings that will demand a fee - people like Bony, Mangala, Nasri, Hart etc - if we can shift these early then it puts us in a great position, hopefully Pep's influence means that Txiki will accept lower prices than usual to clear the decks.

It's going to be a fun summer, that's for sure.

I think the thing that will work in our favour is the standard of player we're trying to get rid of. Apart from Bony, most of the players i.e. Hart, Nasri and Mangala are actually quality players and can help improve 90% of European clubs.

I'm also hoping that for once, we do actually get our business done early, especially as we have players who are out of contract, and we actually have the manager we've been after for years. He knows exactly what we need now, so I can't see them messing about.

This is the summer we catch Real, Barca and Bayern imo.
 
Rose is 27 in the summer , no way we pay £50m on a 27 year old full back

Would rather we buy shaw !
Not since his injury. Not been the same player. Glad to hear we have two full backs sorted. Been a couple of seasons since we had an overlapping fullback. Cripples the attack if you have a fullback who doesn't have the pace to overlap and of course a killer defensively as well

You really think Rose is in the bag ?
 
Rose and Walker would be booked every game for us. No one gets away with anything anything at City.

Look how many time Sterling is booked for us after being the most fouled player in the league for Liverpool.
