Matheus Nunes

One thing is sure and that is the club are in for a ball carrying central midfielder so if we don't sign Nunes and we can't get someone else in before close of play on Friday then we will have failed in that objective.

How costly in terms of success or lack of in the coming season that failure might be we'll only know in around nine months time.

Kovacic is one. He just wasn't allowed to be at Chelsea but with Rodders behind him here, he has the freedom to do so.

At no point during Pep’s reign have we given him a complete squad. Not once. But they’re best mates so no matter what they fail to provide for him, he can let it slide. He also knows he’s elite at his job and can pull a rabbit out of the hat with whatever players we have, or don’t have. But imagine how tetchy things are going to get when our manager doesn’t have that long-standing friendship with the hierarchy and when our manager can’t adapt like Pep. People assume being City manager is an easy job. Let’s see. We have 13 senior outfield players available. With only 2 injuries.

We had a complete squad last season until Cancelo was sent out on loan. Currently I think we have 1 space.

What about Omar and Ferran? Why is it always txiki’s fault?

You know that football creates polar opposite opinions on most topics.

Txiki can only be a Txiki blinder or a Txiki fucker at the end of August each year.

Fucker is winning 60/40 seemingly this year.

So Damien10 said there was progress but Simon Jones said we were walking. Is that the gist of it?

Tolmie is saying earlier in the day the feeling was we would walk but later in the day it was more positive. Wonder when Simon Jones got his info as it may make a big difference. Transfers are constantly changing probably and so info can become out of date very quickly- it may have collapsed again this morning who knows

Is it Friday ? I honestly thought it was Thursday.

No @oakiecokie, it’s Wednesday today….

 

[not my fault!]

You can THIS as much as you want,but one thing is for sure they will finish above Brighton and West Ham

Nobody suggested they wouldn’t… read my post properly instead of getting all high and mighty lol. I said currently they look more a threat and they do! Liverpool are tosh, my entire family support Liverpool so I get it no end on how great they are blah blah blah yet all are saying how poor they are and won’t win the PL. they watch them every game and most are season ticket holders. I trust their opinion over yours so as I said…. This.

My point is that the club are actively looking to bring in another ball carrying midfielder in addition to Kovacic. If we don't then that objective won't have been met.

Most recent update was within a page or two of his post

I wouldn’t say Wolves signing a central defender is an update on Nunes.

Not if you flip your logic and realise City had a certain valuation of Rice that was less than West Ham we’re willing to accept. That or Rice told us he preferred Arsenal.

Either way, we were never going to bid again.

I've always harbored a suspicion that we only bid for Rice to drive the price up for Arsenal. They've tried to knife us enough times I'd like to think that it was a shot across the bows. It was just so different to any other business we've done before.
