We should ear mark him for a future deal. This boy is going to be a huge player. Maybe next year.

Definitely.

Not this summer but in a few years, this guy will be the centre midfielder to get, certainly if Pep is still here.

The next Busquets in my eyes.

But I thought Gundogan was the shit one and we should have signed Mkhitaryan and Reus??? - pretty sure I read that from some "informed" source!

Gundogan was pretty much the driving force in their team and they played their best stuff when he was at his best, and I was really surprised by some of the comments on the internet that since his back injury, when he missed a whole season, he's not the same. He basically was as good last season as ever. Of course, injuries are still a huge concern.

Oh and I don't want to sound as I know it all, I'm actually just translating what German experts were saying (just to name the most well-known in UK, Honigstein was full of praise for him in 14/15).

But we are slightly off topic. :)

Quite, I can't imagine how much more dynamic Germany would have looked had he been available, even if only to replace Khedira (who is a Low favourite) when injured/unavailable.
The general comments on the internet were from people who had never heard of him but read that he'd had a back injury that kept him out for a year - though not linking Dortmund's fairly poor season that year to his absence it seems!

A very good, long, read.

He would fit into Pep's style of play for sure.

If A.Garcia is not ready then I'd like to see Weigl at City.

Mate, Weigl is a once-in-a-generation player. You can't rely too much on youngsters who haven't even kicked the ball on a serious level. Even La Masia has a dearth of talent nowadays after the so called 'golden generation'. Almost all their 'future stars' had been sold, and their former most promising player, who was touted to become a worldbeater from 14 y.o., now crosses the ball to Romelu Lukaku on a weekly basis. Superclubs need to buy readymade superstar players like Weigl.

IMO, he's worth more than Pogba (for our system), and no one knows his ceiling. Basically he's a younger and slightly raw copy of Busquets.

Would be an immense signing, Pep is in awe of him. Hope that Pep&Tuchel's good relationship will help to get him next summer or in 2018.

Hopefully with toure's wage gone & fee's for fernando & nasri coming our way at the end of the season he could be one big signing next year.
