Quota systems never work all they do is lower the standard. The trouble is our youngsters are not hungry enough. Starts at schools that do not have losers.

Not read this thread for while, and as uneducated as I am this does strike me as a typical Guardiola singing, even if I haven't a clue what one is lol!
He's a ball playing centre back who has the biggest advantage I suppose from Peps point of view in that he knows how to use the ball. Needs to be a better defender though.
And we are in for bonnuci so?? It fits with what ric said about having 3/4 targets for each identified position. Guess Laporte was first call? As we are chasing bonnuci maybe this one is dead, or maybe my logic isn't too clever.
We shall see

The wisdom on the thread seems to be that we could be in for them both, Stones and Bonucci. This is based on rumour, and many forumites wanting to see the back of Mangala.Not read this thread for while, and as uneducated as I am this does strike me as a typical Guardiola singing, even if I haven't a clue what one is lol!

Fwiw, I'd say the Stones rumour is more likely. It's debatable which is the best buy, due to age and ability/potential. I'd go for Bonucci, as the more proven player, though Stones is very good. If we're going for potential, I'd rather we developed our own.
This pales into insignificance if Pep wants Stones.

Also based on us being balls deep for Stones and Laporte at the same time.

he will be the first English 100m when he moves.Delli Alli would go for much more than £30m IMO. Horrible character but very talented footballer, can imagine him going to the swamp at some point in the future?

Only because of Levy. Not a chance he'll ever be worth 100mhe will be the first English 100m when he moves.

You think? Admit I've only seen him 4 or 5 times but he looked good? Nice problem to have though eh? ;-)
