Josko Gvardiol

Still a quality CB regardless of his perceived lack of versatility.

But not used much.

 

[Taylor]

This is an Haaland type signing in defence, he will be easily one of the best CB's in world football over the next few years.

Very close, imminent, bags packed, next few days are key, personal terms agreed, almost finalised, payment terms getting sorted

City never do business on a Monday. So just need to check flight tracker from Tuesday onwards.

Not good at all for the club and Laporte and Cancelo.
Neither should be going on loan at their age and quality. People moan about Saudi spending money I don’t get it the premier league has all money to spend, a lot of these historic clubs have to sell their star players now to buy.

PL the most watched league by a mile its not a suprise how much money it makes compared to others

But not used much.

Not fully recovered from his injury. Akanji's improvement as the season progressed didn't help matters either. I am not suggesting Gvardiol is going to be an awful signing by a long chalk but it is not going to be plain sailing either.

Croatian blues…

Croatian Blues coming after you.

 

[Any1aBlue]

Peps creating the best defence the premier league has ever seen. Gvardiol is a world class CB at 21 years of age. Has everything to become the best defender in the world.

You are right - yet there were many on here who didn’t want him and couldn’t understand why were buying. Bizarre.

(wishful thinking)

When we sign Gvardiol the back to back Treble and Invincibles is on.
