Leonardo Bonucci

[JosMCFC]

The Bonucci deal is almost done. The price is nowhere near the €60 the papers are talking about.

Expect this done before any other deal.

ITK?

You can't just say that and not tell us how you know this.

I'm telling you what..if we pull this off and we really are trying..our central defence will be incredible

Imagine Bonnuci and a fit Kompany with Stones in the wings

 

[Danny_Johnson4]

If we sign Bonucci, we probably sign a guy who is the best in his position on the planet
My opinion obviously however it would be a monumental statement of intent and probably be the best signing we have made since Aguero
30/31, whatever.. he can play for 3 years at the absolute top level, coinciding with the length of our managers contract. Pep is not here to fu** around now after all..

 

[JosMCFC]

Not get excited about this til @Ric says it's close

Heard anything about this ?

A fit Kompany and Bonucci would be the best partnership in Europe

 

[GX Blue]

Blimey, we have a fair few ITK's about this deal all of a sudden?

I mustn't be on Txikis email list.

 

[Lovebitesandeveryfing]

Yep. Ric was utterly certain that we had the KDB deal closed, that's good enough for me. Since the Laporte thing, though, I can't help feeling jittery.

 

[Phil1]

Imminent.

I've heard nothing about this deal wise other than the fact Pep is a big admirer and if he was available we would definitely throw our hat in

I said at the beginning when we were linked that I felt he was nontransferable like Aguero and us...but it seems that's not the case

 

[SPIDERBOY]

You can't just say that and not tell us how you know this.

That's a fair point,but he just has.

He's 29 and he can go another 5 years, easily. He's playing better than he ever has and will thrive under Pep who he is tailor made for.

Please be true!

His favourite #19 shirt is available at City. Get it done, Txiki.

Bonucci and Stones as the default pair, Kompany playing whenever he's fit and Otemendi as a 4th choice is very good as well.

Can't think of a better person for Stones to learn of than Bonucci either - he's basically what we'd hope Stones becomes.

That's also Sané's number.

I guess Sané could have Kolarov's 11 if we ever offload him.

Yeah on reflection we will probably more likely rotate Kompany and Bonucci with the young lad

 

[BlueDejong]

Please...Please...

 

[FantasyIreland]

How do you know?

He doesnt,he's guessing.

 

[oakiecokie]

All of a sudden we seem to have dozens of so called ITK`s coming out of the woodwork.

Some guy on here said 31 the other day!

Its picked up pace today but I just hope its not more guesswork from the Media. Juve are spending some serious cash this summer and I do believe we have put a lot of groundwork in on this one.
It would be huge as we say. I absolutely loved him taking that Pen against Germany. He was quality that game and as soon as it was given you can tell he was like **** this im taking it, love that sense of responsibility..

(lets forget he fluffed his lines in the shoot-out...)
