Kylian Mbappe

[TRUE BLUE NO1]

Hmm...

I think this is the most likely...I think our interest is serious but we not going to want to get into a bidding war! 140mil,150mil....160mil. Sanchez would be a great plan B tho!;)

Exactly, neither Sanchez or mbappe are better players than our kun, could argue they're at the same level. We'd just be kicking a very loyal and great player who made history for us out for a shiny new toy.

Mbappe and Alexis are more flexible players though, and I think that suits Pep. Both can play as a striker or through the wings whereas Kun can only really play up top (though I'd argue he's the best of all of them in that position).

The added flexibility would allow us to swap the front 3s positions around during a game which would be terrifying for defenders. At the moment, an opposition CB knows that Kun's in the line up then he has to deal with Kun (which admittedly, isn't easy). If our front 3 was Jesus, Mbappe and Alexis, he doesn't know which one he'll be up against at any point in the match.

long way to go in this window maybe if RM fail to sign him then we will.

 

[Bill]

I have no idea whether we'll get him or not but would be good to net him if whilst we can. as someone said loan him back till we really need him. should we get sanchez we would have plenty up top,

People are seriously 0verthinking the Aguero/too many players angle. Pep is thinking and planning in a post Aguero world. Once you understand that lens, being so keen on Mbappe makes a lot of sense.

Not averse to signing both Mbappe and Sanchez and leaving it to the players to get picked based on their performance just dont want Aguero sold to any rival. 93.20 will live with me forever.

I've got good news for you
Aguero can't take 93.20 with him when he goes.

 

[BlueCityfan]

Wouldn't Pep just deny the Mbappe rumours if we were definitely not signing him? To say "anything can happen" doesn't sound like someone who is out of the running.

Fact

Eh, can almost guarantee he'd sign a new deal, so it'd work out well for Monaco.

No you can't, and he's resisted signing one all year so far.

What is Mbappe on at Monaco? About €10k? Monaco won't be paying him a lot given he signed the contract when he was 17 before he blew up. He won't be signing a new contract with them but he knows he will get at least 10/15 times that at city or Madrid.

He will move this summer.
