Kyle Walker

[Rammy Blue]

I thank him, but I won't miss Mahrez one bit.

He was very disappointing in the run-in, dialling it in and not even bothering to help when the kids were starting.

We have had our money's worth and I have always felt he plays the game for himself, rather than the team.

To get a decent fee for him at his age is miraculous.

The geezer who tweeted about the medical has said expect a £30mil bid for Mahrez, be fantastic business to get that for him.

Shoehorning Phil into Mahrez' position for next season simply means we'll need to find a replacement for Phil. We need to buy a Mahrez replacement if he goes. Plus, hasn't there been indications Phil will play central next season?

Phil is good enough that he should be starting every week, he needs to cement his place in the side this season.

Foden and Bernardo are the only options we need for the right side.

Foden is also the option for the left. 3 senior players between 2 key positions would be bold. If Bernardo stays, he'll play games in the middle as well - Kovacic is good but injury prone and not sure if he automatically gives the same pausa control that Gundo did.

Whoever we bring in may not be up to scratch as usual with any new players we bring in..

think we will do all we can to keep Silva..

If we can prise Kimmich away from Bayern he would be superb at Right Back or in midfield. Perhaps he will come the other way if Kyle goes there.

Would not surprise me to see both going.

Nor me.

Maybe they’ll except a big fee for Kimmich seeing they after Kane and he will cost 100m

Still pretty thin coverage though, given that Foden is also one of the only options we need for the left side as well, and that Bernie is also doubling up with Kev as our only top drawer central midfield attacking option. I do think Kovacic will be a good signing, but he's far more defensively inclined than Gunders was. Would love to see a flier brought in like Leao or Kvaratskhelia personally, but how well they'd fit in with the current masterplan I'm not sure. Can't quite shake the feeling that we're a Bernie tantrum (and I'm not for one moment suggesting he's that way inclined) from some self-inflicted agg as regards the transfer market......

If Riyad goes, I’d want to see someone come in. I’m in the bring back Leroy camp if Riyad goes.

Palmer needs to go out on loan.

We could also use Alvarez in a wide position but Pep doesn’t seem keen on that.

Maybe a young player is the best option.

I do think playing Foden a lot more could pay dividends.

Mahrez was too inconsistent, don't get me wrong when he was in form he was very good. However, there was plenty of games when he was anonymous.

Fair summation
