Matthijs de Ligt

[FantasyIreland]

Agree, but he’s just turned 17, so it will probably take some years

Thats my point,hes already a beast,in 12/18 months he may be difficult to ignore.

Agree, looks very similar to De Ligt who started playing for the first team at Bellis current age. I personally believe Bellis could start for several Eredivisie clubs right now. He`s a physical beast and almost as good on the ball as Garcia. One of the biggest talents in the academy

 

[FCBarca]

I got the distinct impression his transfer future was going to be acknowledged after the QFs, so...

 

[MCFC ISRAEL]

He will be the best CB in the world under Pep

 

[Coley4]

If we do get through against spurs it will be good to look at the Ajax players first hand. There might be some other gems apart from De ligt.

 

[MCFC1993]

This Ajax team will get gutted in the summer, De Jong already gone.

We'd be mad not to go for De Ligt, he looks an absolutely superb centre back and he's only 19!

Probably similar to what happened with Monaco a few years ago.

 

[waspish]

Isn't he of to Barcelona?

 

[richards30]

£60m price tag is a steal! I can only imagine he has told us he doesn’t want city as we have zero links anymore to him.

 

[BlueMoonz1977]

Do we really need him. Yes he is a very good player but we cannot buy everyone when there available to be bought. We have LaPorte and Stones who are both young and will be around for years anyway.

You look at the likes of Barca, Madrid and Juve and these are teams that are needing to rebuild

If a 19 year old Lionel Messi was available would you pass up the opportunity due to us already having Sterling, Bernardo and Mahrez?

 

[Tevez City]

Very good but not needed.

Unless we swap Otamendi + Mangala for De Light

 

[FCBarca]

Umtiti appears to be out for the season as the issues in his knee have returned after initially rebuffing the surgical option. If he does go under the knife, at least 6-7 months recovery.

Pretty clear how this impacts De Ligt's pursuit

 

[christened at st marks]

Game is as bent as fuck why bother

You would. His name is Felix :p

 

[Sir Joe Aguero]

Get the wallet out.

 

[Stinny66]

Get the wallet out.

Totally agree the lads got it all . We lack leadership at the back and Company who was the leader unfortunately his age and injuries have cought up with him

Can't agree with the leadership thing,all our centre halves are strong and vocal.Stones is a born leader.

 

[kanovic]

I can’t see ya competing with barca. If they want him he is theirs imo

We need some rebuilding imho Kompany silva dinho, plus a left back and cf. Gundogan May move on, I think Ottamendi May too. I think Walker is past his best as well.
