I am the same with some supporters, wish we could unload -)
We cannot pay 95 million for a 29 yr old defender, and it is not my money.
In fact we could not pay 50 million for a player that age, I am surprised so few people cannot see that.
would you pay 90 million for our title back next year?

I’d rather have Upamecano who could be great for the next 10 years and Aubameyang who can replace Sané and help when Aguero’s injured.would you pay 90 million for our title back next year?

Watched Upamecano for the last four matches and really don't fancy him one iota. Koulibaly too old for my liking but if he fills in until Garcia steps up the next step and buys THB time then fine. Plenty of centre backs below that - Finlay Burns and CJ Egan-Riley improving rapidly.
And yet, City has spent more money than PSG. Especially on defenders. So, if one should ask who is more likely to spend 90 M on a defender, City is the right answer.I've never doubted his talent it's a question of how many times City can be burnt by that twat Of an owner at Napoli.
PSG wouldnt blink if he wanted an easy life in a two bit League in France??
My argument still stands Koulabily isnt anything neat €90m yet PSG would pay it.
City wouldnt budge on Maguire & Maguire wanted City.
UTD & PSG throw ££££££££ at it yet get away with murder, UTD have lent millions once again yet City get called out?
PSG spend 100's of millions yet prize money in France is what exactly?
Naymar is no bigger than he was in Barca playing 2nd fiddle to Messi,
If & a big if Koulabily does come to City it's down to the player & I applaud him wanting City & Pep & not the millions he would be given more at PSG & UTD
Wont be long before Naymar goes back to Barca & Mbappa fucks off to Real.
PSG goalkeeper duo cost 15 M€, the left back duo cost 5 M, the right back duo cost 6 M (or 43 if you count Kehrer as a right back), then as CB you have Thiago Silva at 40 M, Marquinhos at 30, Kimpembe (academy), Diallo 32, Kehrer 37 if you count him as a CB.
If you were trying to think a bit, you would understand that PSG being in a bad economic surrounding (Ligue 1 TV right and average brand before the takeover), needed to spend big on offensive stars like Neymar and Mbappé to sign big sponsorship deals with Nike, Accor and co. and reduce their Qatar money dependecy. How do you think PSG got that very successful Jordan contract ?
Thus, how do you assume PSG wouldn't blink to pay 90 M€ for a CB? Do i have to remind you City is the team that broke transfer record on defensive positions time and time again ?
You are funny because wether you like it or not, City is a big money club. You are already sounding as snobbish as those Barça fans who are crying when a player chose to go to another club touting their "Barça or money" mantra.
Even more ridiculous to keep your charade when you were lambasting PSG in your fantasy world for spending 90 M on Koulibaly but if he signs for City at a 80 M price tag, it is for the love of Pep and City. Hilarious!
I have always found Chelsea fans hypocritical for criticizing City and riding their high horse while they did the exact same thing just some years before. I'm sad to see you are no different and not even self aware of your club.
Take a good look :he’s right tho,the money they roll in is farcical

If it was a guarantee yes, but it's not.would you pay 90 million for our title back next year?

Fair comment - no guarantee but I’d be confident if we signed him we’d be a lot closer than we are now
