Kalvin Phillips | Joins City on a 6-year deal

[JewelZee]

It’s as if Pep, Txiki and our extensive global team of professional scouts and analysts have never heard of Palinha, and haven’t for whatever reason decided Phillips is a better bet.
Think I’ll go with their judgement rather than some random making strawman arguments on a forum

Palinha blows...now things are getting crazy...

 

[Mr-Mertle]

Are we genuinely in for this lad or is this just speculation? Any of our ITKs said owt?

We've gone from speculation to "imminent" and "widely expected to join" in the media for what that's worth. Had one ITK who called Ronaldo not joining City well before the media saying it's practically done. I expect this go through now after the last England match on Tuesday.

Oh no England have another game on Tues… another snooze fest

Think this one is further along, think he’ll be with us this month for sure. Hope so anyway

I think our business will be done by the start of pre season. Thought Haaland would've been the hardest to get but that's done. Phillips looks to be going that way with Leeds getting replacements and now Brighton are looking at left backs. Cucurella and Phillips I think that's our business done unless 2 of the attackers leave.

£30-£40 million and I could understand it, as that’s probably his value and enough to pay for a squad player.

£60 million for this guy and it just stinks of lazy recruitment.

Go on then…. Who would you bring in for £30 to £40m who’d get serious game time? Interested to know….

so hes good enough for the position and role then, depending on his price? where does the talent go with the extra cash?

 

[nmc]

Exactly. I'm looking forward to sky's haaland calculated transfer fee. We're paying over £100m

I love their dynamic sliding scale of salaries…. Every time they mention Haaland’s salary they’ll add a bit more on… he will be on a million a week in no time…. The reverse of Alexis Sanchez - who started off on £600k a week but within a year he was eligible for Universal Credit !
