Jack Grealish

I would take Grealish & sell Sterling any day of the week

£400.000 a week new contract not a chance I would pay Sterling that

Right now Sterling isn't best 12

The team that started Tuesday + Laporte then our new striker & add Grealish to that list then Sterling bye bye for me

Grealish will give City 8 out of 10 every day & would take rotstion in this squad

So we are wanting Grealish, possibly Mendes, Haaland and as a bonus Messi this summer. Suppose I could live with that.

Trumps the year we signed Tony Tramp and Spender Prior I guess !

I’d rather get Grealish and keep Sterling tbh.

What specific aspect of technique do you mean? Passing precision? My impression is his ball retention is a level above KDB's, closer to Nasri. Haven't watched JG much though, so could be mistaken

Passing + crossing technique. KDB has this unusual ability to both see the nearly impossible passes and also play them. He can get all manners of power and spin on them, and can play the 10 yard throughballs and the 60 yard throughballs too. His technique gives him the variety to play so many different passes. His weak foot is great too.

I think Grealish can see the passes really well too. He has really good variety too but it's not on KDB's level (nobody's is IMO).

I agree about Grealish being better at holding the ball. He's a top class foul magnet.

Grealish or Aouar?

Good assessment.He's also a set piece master and has a surprisingly fast 0-60,but yes,his ability to hold the ball,bring others into play,and get an end product are as good as any player in the league.

No idea mate.

I honestly see Kev playing that HM role maybe not next season but easily for his last couple of years, he would piss it

Someone will have to go though,surely? so if not him then i guess it will be Mahrez.

Is he a left back though? Seen a few Sporting Fans suggest he is more like a left winger?

It would be smart if he's good enough, especially as as we Yan Couto for the right.

I really don't think our opponents and even some of our own fans realise what is coming down the pike?

We're seeing it already with Phil and the forward planning is now becoming clear.

Dias, Zin, Jesus, Couto, Delap, Doyle, Palmer, Steffen, Bernie, Torres, Stones and Laporte.

Add Haaland and the average age of our squad would be insanely young.

Liam Delap will become a top striker he has all the attributes, Cole Palmer another 1 who has the lot in his locker but difficult to get in this City team especially the next 2 seasons
Doyle, Delap & Cole Palmer need minutes in the Championship

Yeah, not sure how the numbers would work squad wise without any further outgoings tbh. Unless Gundogan reverted to a 6 again when Fernandinho goes, but that’d be a bit of a waste given how well he’s performed further forward this season.
