James McAtee

[Bournemouth Blue]

Not allowed to spend?

Just reading into the Chairman’s end of season interview, the PL are cracking down on excess spending and are scrutinising every transfer. No point in selling a decent player unless you can get one at least as good for the same money

Not really for the academy lads. Just take the best price, if they are never effecting the first team.

Delap, Katongo, C Doyle, Kabore, etc

Surprised they are all back so early
Wouldn't mind seeing one of Couto or Kabore hanging around next season

They might play in the Community Shield.

He toured last year before going out on loan. Think it will be similar but with a sale instead of loan. Can’t see room for him in the squad unless say Bobb goes out on loan. If Bernie for example was to leave I don’t think we’d replace him with McAtee.

Havent somebody called in a David Silva clone?

Pep just bigged him up huge.

Reporter asked him which academy player are you looking forward to the most and he said McAtee, because of his quality to play in the pockets.

I did not expect this, but would love if he could be integrated.

Guardiola, who has revelled in the recharging of his batteries over the summer which took him to Wimbledon, has been particularly impressed with James McAtee during City's first training sessions out in the United States.

McAtee has spent the last two seasons on loan at Sheffield United and Guardiola has seen major growth in his development.

'I'm curious to see Macca especially, I have a high opinion of him,' Guardiola added. 'I'd like him to insert himself properly with the team.

'I'd love to keep him next season, he's a special guy to play in the small spaces, in the pockets. He grew up in terms of physicality in the Premier League with a team fighting against relegation, you get something special.'

McAtee need to prove that his loan time in Sheffield last season is not mistake like some people in here believes.
