Leroy Sané

[Tugay One Cup]

Looks a good player on the counter and when he was space, but not sure how he fits into a possession orientated team where he rarely gets to use his pace.

Have you seen Pep's Bayern play?

Have you seen the way he used his wingers at Barca?

 

[CityForever45]

60 millions is ridiculous, good player but still raw, better to spend that kind of money for Griezmann

 

[Manchester_lalala]

£50 million, I hope he's good. Could probably get greizmann for a bit more than that.

Of course i have. I've stated on here numerous times that his wingers need to have a certain set of qualities.

• They need to reliably be able to hit a 50/60 yard crossfield diagonal ball with regularity to create an isolation on one flank after overloading the other one.
• They need to be a threat from long range with the ability to score from outside the box.
• They need the ability to hit flat crosses from a variety of angles.
• They need the dribbling ability to cut inside against an opponent who may have 9 or 10 players camped in their own half.
• They need the close control, touch and footballing brain to quickly move the ball on under pressure.
• They need to be a goal-scoring threat.
• They need to work hard.

That's purely from watching Bayern this season. That's why i'm not convinced Sane at £60m is the answer.

Before people start worrying about fees always remember

1) If you read it in a paper it is bullshit
2) If you read it on twitter it is bullshit
2) If its a fee about a City player the price will be inflated € does not equal £ how many times have we seen €20m suddenly become £20m suddenly become £25m
3) As I understand it most deals are structured with lower up front payments plus add ons with most top clubs but its funny how City these rules do not apply. Sterling is quoted generally as a £49m fee but we know the fee included add ons but Martial was quoted as £36m but we know that will rise to nearer £60m with add ons but these are rarely quoted
4) See point 1 and 2

All this paper talk about upping the offer and Bayern been interested is a clear indication that we've agreed a deal with the player and are now starting negotiations with the club. It's like clockwork.

I agree....sounds like we've been in talks since Jan with the rumoured 50mil(euro) offer that was rejected during the winter transfer window....

Ah, but Pep IS convinced. It's difficult but I'd probably take his word over yours.
