That reminds me of this amazing compilation I saw a while ago of Joao Felix putting chances on a plate from his first season at Atletico Madrid and them finding just about every way possible to miss what you'd assume was a certain goal.

Looking likely that Bernardo is off, do you think that the club would let Aguero leave without a replacement incoming .
Best fit for KDB is Lukaku.
Mbappe and Haaland both look Madrid bound .
Kane wants us , so should be a straight forward deal to do.
Hope you are happy with that.
is Bernardo silva leaving at £50million ??? what sort of sense does paying £100milion for jack grealish
and letting silva leave for peanuts
Don't know about the Messi comparison but two things struck me about that video.
The first is that he's got more than enough pace, especially considering he's got the ball at his feet and he's jinking and jiving past people. Definitely not an issue.
Second is that he really, really needs better players around him. He must get so frustrated doing all the hard work only for his team mate to do an air shot.

If the transfer goes ahead ( picture - Grealish - blue Citytop ) we at least get a player that likes and is able to go at an opponent and actually tricks his way past him. Unless Pep learn him to do the simple thing that will end up in passing the ball back- or sideways.
I very much like to see the player Grealish is and has been for years, to develop with a fantastic manager and real quality players around him.
Think it’s a public secret Bernardo wants to leave for whatever reasons. I pity that but if do City will get a return at least half the transfer money for Grealish.
If that is indeed 100K.
And yes, we need a CF. And we will get one. Sometimes it’s easier to get one of the 2-3 targets we want, so can we stop blating we need a CF first?

He's probably not quick over 40 yards*, but very rapid over 5. Especially the first two. Changes direction and pace so smoothly.Don't know about the Messi comparison but two things struck me about that video.

And the most important thing about him is, he's quick upstairs. Look how easily he read those defenders, how many are just left standing. That's the Messi comparison. Foden is magic, but he's hectic, scarily intense in pulling very technical things off with his feet at ridiculous speed. Almost at the last minute. Grealish is doing more in his head. His awareness is also comparable to KDB.... KDB is so far ahead it's hard to keep up sometimes. We see assists like last week for Belgium and you can't do any better in terms of vision. It's the peak. But we know sometimes it looks like no-one else could have been expected to be on the same wavelength. Grealish is a more traditional playmaker. He takes touches, leaves the defenders, and by the time the next guy is there, he's seen the team mate and found him. He's hit on something, for sure. He knows what he's aiming to do tactically, has refined it... you can see it in his running style, such unfussy balance. For all the joyous flair, there is a hint of a paired back style in what he's doing.
And the last thing is, some of those crosses in the box. Very high awareness again, but some of them are almost Silva like - eye of the needle. Really fantastic stuff. For some reason I think he'll be one to bring out the best in Mahrez.
KDB, Foden, Grealish, should be incredible. So very direct, and each in their own particular way. It'll be a bit of a change. I think the emphasis might be on the technical defenders and midfielders to keep things very very tidy indeed.
*But because of this... if Sterling leaves, we will be considerably less mobile up front than in recent years. And the midfield won't have Bernie buzzing around off the ball, being so sharp, clean and tidy.
I dunno. You can't have it all. I wonder if we may infact go back for another striker, and even a central player. Like Bennacer. Fern's great but he's not that stupid neat. Bernie was. He just kept that ball so well in advanced positions. He was the new Silva, in that regard.
Honesty if you have a spare 10 mins just sit back and watch this. Not even exaggerating there is only one person I could watch who leaves me with that many ‘how did he just do that’ and that’s Messi.
His close control is super human like, he’s got the lot, eye for a pass, decent enough pace, top drawer strength, great finishing. The boy is a superstar and within a few weeks he’d have every doubter drooling over him.
So hope we get this over the line
He's going to be incredibly fun to watch.
After the past year of having football just rammed down out throats non-stop (City alone have played 74 games in the past year), the one thing I really want from next season is just entertainment. We haven't played exciting stuff for a while and I just would like a bit more 2017-2019 style fun in our games.
Grealish will bring some of that, as well as his obvious quality.
It’s obvious isn’t it?i just don't see kane leaving spurs ? or there chairman letting him
jack-grealish at £100million is a joke. villa must be thinking take the money right now before they change there minds
how on earth is jack grealish valued at £100milion and bernardo silva could leave for peanuts at £50 million
sorry city have got this wrong 100% in for jack grealish at £100milion ??
We’ve started smoking crack between phone calls.
Perfect sense when you think £50m is peanutsis Bernardo silva leaving at £50million ??? what sort of sense does paying £100milion for jack grealish
