It's Quiet Thread 15 - Txiki Blinders

[Coatigan]

His brother/ agent briefed it to all the major papers 2 weeks ago, all at the same time. Didn't even hide the fact it was from his agent's company "CK66".

Thanks. Saw the claims, didn't follow where they came from.

Still don't think it can get done, not till late in the summer

I can see why they are interested but I wouldn’t even swap zinchenko for Rice, would leave us with real problems at left back.

Don't see him joining another club in England, him and his missus love Manchester too much!

Sterling and City believe him playing with a World class number nine next season will go a long way to solving a few concerns.

He's going nowhere unless Madrid or Barca want him.

Ok Tolm, enough talk of the existing players. We want shiny new toys. NOW!

Would work for Sterling but maybe not so much Mahrez…

Possibly. I do think they're onto something there though broadly speaking. Sterling would have less of a burden in terms of goalscoring, something IMO he's not that comfortable shouldering the responsibility of - there would also be undeniably more space as someone like Kane would draw more focus than any of our false 9s would. Plus there would always be someone for him to try and find.

 

[tolmie's hairdoo]

Lukaku would be a massive mistake. He’s shining in a league that suits him and the club shouldn’t be fooled by that.

I don't pick 'em, bud.

De Bruyne is a big fan of Lukaku.

They may be right tbh

You and Ahsan planning a transfer chat this week? Would be great tonic listening this week.

Hope this is true, look at the improvement in Stones playing alongside a world class centre half.

As long as they don't mention the match that didn't happen on Saturday.

 

[balotelli's back pocket]

IMO he's exactly the kind of player we should be moving on.

PS, this is much more fun than trying to work out youtube videos.

I feel guilty saying it, because they've had some great performances this season, but the likes of Cancelo and Mahrez will never be worth more than they are this summer. Considering neither are nailed on starters, I would happily move them on if we needed to raise funds for Kane and Grealish. Much rather them than Jesus and Sterling.

I wonder if there's any way to bring back Porro this summer?
