Jonny Evans

The fact that PSG paid 200m for Neymar is the reason that rest of us are having to pay 20m for the likes of Evans. The deal has just sent the market into orbit.
Did you think Coutinho was worth 100m+ in June?

So why can't we get a decent valuation for our fringe players.

So why can't we get a decent valuation for our fringe players.

Because everyone knows how much money we have, how desperate we are to get rid of them, how much those players are on and that there are cheaper options who are just as good from other clubs.

This has made me think again too.


"Should we really be surprised that Guardiola is now targeting the 29-year-old? No, of course not. Perhaps the biggest surprise is that Evans has not been more of a permanent fixture in the gossip columns this summer.

He could easily play for any of the top-four clubs, with his positional sense, reading of the game and ability on the ball making him tailor-made for Guardiola. John Stones, signed for £47.5 million last year, could learn a lot off him."

Perhaps he isn't being brought in as number 4!

Stones and Ottamendi are both suspect at times. I still feel that Stones will make a better DM long term.

High wages.

If we sign Mbappe, Messi and Sanchez and then we sign this joke, Id say it would be one of the worst transfer summers in our clubs history

Evans would be more naturally suited to the left side of a back 3 than what we already have.

Any signing has an element of a gamble.....but Evans ? C'mon guys this is not real. I have yet to find any City fan outside of this forum who thinks it would be a good signing.
If the guy comes he is going to be on a hiding to nothing from day 1.
Pep & Co must have had too much sun in Girona !

It's 50/50 on Rag Cafe

Some think he'll be a really good signing for us

Some say he's shit

So basically Bluemoon's stance

I don't think it's 50/50 on here more 73/28

Evans is better then Mario and Robinho?
Wtf is going with this crazy world.

Like Sigurdson to Everton for 45m when Nasri is available for around 15m
