Felix.

Very exciting transfer should we pull it off. That's our forwards sorted for the next decade.

Haaland (21)
Alvarez (22)
Foden (21)
Felix (22)
Palmer (20)

Haaland only 21, difficult to believe, so young, all of them. If only I knew at 21 what I know now (not that it's much)!

Possibly, but Pep has form in not using 5 subs even when he is allowed to.

Pep said after the title win "remember we have 5 substitutes next season" with the biggest grin ever I think he's purposely made less subs to play mind games on clubs deciding, Pep was always a massive advocate for 5 substitutions but refused to use all available U-boats at any time, honestly I think he was pushing for them without making it look like we actually had an advantage of any kind due to our lack of subs that's a masterstroke if so, now it's been fully implemented next season I reckon he'll start using all 5 U-boats (subs) in most games and completely throttle this league think we'll also see more kids get game time from the bench.

Maybe I'm giving Pep more credit than he deserves or I'm overthinking this but it wouldn't surprise me at all, he's just getting started you can see the happiness time to really start dominating domestically 3 more years Txiki get it sorted and signed by Pep.

Not to go off thread anymore but I assume 5 subs still have to be made in 3 goes max?

Still really dislike this rule - games end up so disjointed with 10 new outfield players on by the end. The Covid fixture backlog is gone now so they should go back to 3 subs.

Felix is the new Isco or Alex Sandro. The player that we seriously do not need, who is extremely inconsistent, is still non-stop linking with City. Mainly because of the Portuguese colony and Jorge Mendes.

 

[Farouq]

I believe two holders in Europe next season could see us take the final step, now we have Haaland up top!

I suppose we can't think too bad of City, we have stood by the likes of Aguero, Yaya, Fern, Vinny, Silva and Zabba until their last legs, more out of deserved loyalty.

You previously said that a signing was boxed off, was that related to Phillips or cucarella?

Let's try to keep to the subject of the thread, please.

Dude I'm well confused is it 3 or 5 max subs?

You are definitely overthinking it.

5 subs in 3 goes.
