Josko Gvardiol

Laporte doesn't have to go for us to get him anyway I don't think

Do you really see us buying Gvardiol for 85m plus?

I certainly don't. It isn't how we usually operate.

Now they have the Szoboszlai money, they don't really need to sell Gvardiol.

They could potentially get 98m when his release clause kicks in, in the summer of 2024... Why would they accept a bid from us of 80m max? They could make easily another 17m on him. Someone will pay it as well, whether that's Man United or Chelsea. City definitely won't pay 98m for him either.

Laporte won't sit there watching another defender take his spot, he just won't. The only way Laporte leaves is on loan and that won't suit the player or City.

I just don't see it happening now from a business point of view.

Im not undersstanding this with some people.


If there is a release clause it surely makes NO difference whether the scousers have given RB money for there lad......a release caluse is just that...any other money they get wont change it....

IF there isnt a release clause we will have a set value.....we have shown time and time again we wont go past this....YOU HAVE TO TRUST the club and the people with the purse strings and PEP on this... We know there are multiple targets for every position....if we dont get Gvardiol we will have another target....or Laporte stays......people forget how good Laporte is..

Ake was on the verge of joining chelsea last summer.....we didnt let it happen and LOOK at how that turned out and Laporte is a superior to Ake with the ball at his feet etc.

The release clause isn’t active until next summer

He does it every year… the guy is clueless!

I take it that is tongue in cheek? He assembled a squad that just won the treble and yet he’s crap at his job? Harsh…..

Don't know if people have seen, but Tolmie has replied to someone on Twitter saying Gvardiol still expects the deal to go through, maybe next week.

As far as I’m aware he doesn’t have a twitter account although that might have changed.

Yes he’s now bitten the bullet and signed up.

He joined today mate. He put it in the It's Quiet thread.

It’s not harsh mate.








It’s absolutely fucking demented (edit, I am referring to the poster you were responding to)

Therefore we dont have to rush either..Its not a priority and we can keep Laporte if needed....if someone comes in and pays more this summer and gets him....fine....but is there anyone that would do that?!?!

Yeah, he also mentioned we are expecting to sign 4 players.



That would be brilliant. 3 more players would probably mean Gvardiol + RW + Creative midfield option/CAM?
