Marc Cucurella

35m deal + a McAtee loan. Would be a nice move.

Also, seen reports of Brighton looking at Gomez from Anderlecht (LB) and are already looking at Udogie.

Gomez is cracking, great left foot.

Im just happy they are currently looking at leftback, like @twosips hinted at a week or so ago :)

Thanks S.

Yes health OK just about to downsize our country house and large gardens for a more manageable urban dwelling with more social contact but retaining hospital closeness.

Got my Champion's City shirt via UPS 2 days ago so can expect RM and Barca fan reaction locally.

How are you these days?

Good to hear keeping okay, buddy.

All's well this end, thanks for asking.

Stick it to those Real and Barca fans!

Mcatee and Delap playing in the Premier league on loan would be massive for us.

Southampton also have an offer on table for Delap.

Wouldn't touch them, got relegation stink all over them.

 

[DeBlueLou]

They would like McAtee on loan to sweeten the pot, but wouldn't object to Delap either.

Spoke to a Brighton sth and he was adamant that Brighton doesn't do loans without an option to buy. Apparently passed up on Livramento because Chelsea wanted a buy-back. So i dont know how this works, if City actually are willing to drop McAtee permanently :S

We aren't. Not for sale, neither Bazunu or Delap either.

So it'll probably be just a "straight up cash"-deal? Simpler that way.

They rarely loan anyway, they only signed one they ever loaned in. Most go back Ullua, Brown, Krul etc.

We won't sell the family silver.

Was more referring to City paying just cash for Cucurella :)

So was I. You suggested we might be open to a McAtee sale?

 

[DeBlueLou]

Oh, not at all, seem very highly rated AND signed that deal. :)

Salford Silva ;-)

?? in what way Bill ?
I`m assuming theres some sort of story behind your statement. ;)

he did his level best to maim our players at the end of last season .

 

[DeBlueLou]

Also, Brighton fans were very defensive and kinda rude when i suggested it's kinda obvious City are bagging him

It sounds like you were being arrogant. Put yourself in their shoes.

I think Southampton would be great move.
They did very well in developing and giving chances to the lad from Chelsea last season and they are similar players.

Not at all, i was only presenting what ive heard on here and he/she said I was an idiot for believing someone on the forums and stupid for thinking Cucurella would leave if their Athletic correspondent said he isnt :S

Yeah they are not the same without Ings. But if you look on the other way, you see Delap going there might earn him more playtime than an upper league club. They will play in the PL for at least one more season, so a one year loan deal with maybe 25-30 starts in the PL should highly boost his career
