Doubt this is to do with city. But with our ITKs hinting might be us

Which ITKs are hinting and what are the hints?

Romano saying crazy things are happening that nobody will expect. Transfer wise

He's obviously read the Manchester evening news article.
Piggy backing again.

Sorry to hear that mate. I know everyone has their own problems and journey to travel.

Best to you and others who have suffered pain and losses in the last few years.

Thanks bud. Unfortunately, we suffered some very close personal losses. As my wife said, you never get over it - you just learn to live with it.

 

[manimanc]

He's very accurate and shares his info in good faith. Let's not force another ITK off the forum by abusing him eh.

Why which other ITK has shown their arse?

 

[oddfellows]

Weird signing if so. Has Cresswell been put on the wing or something?

That's a really good price for Tagliafico though. He's a bit rash sometimes but I like him.

Prefer Gosens myself but, the price is a steal if true. They have Masuaku in that position too.

Possibly, but then they have more room for improvement

I think the bigger question is have they signed anyone we would have wanted? With the Scum, the answer is clearly no. Nobody in their right minds thinks Varane is better than Dias; and I don't rate Sancho as better than either Foden, Jesus, Mahrez or Grealish (or as good). Ronaldo not even United really wanted.

With Chelsea, the question is around Lukaku. I personally am not a buyer - certainly at 97.5mill. Having watched 2 games + Euros, I don't see him as any different a player than he was at United. The PL is just much tougher (to put it mildly) than Serie A. Moreover, while he likely makes Chelsea stronger, he is probably more suited to their style than ours - i.e. defensive foremost and he can be the outlet for a long release ball. So not a viable option for us IMO even if he had been interested.

If being a pessimistic moaner makes you ITK…

I’d like to throw my hat into the ring…
