We wont be buying anyone like that.
The club were obviously hoping to get Messi for as cheap as possible and sending Garcia as part of it.
Think we'll be getting Koulibaly and that will be it.
Though i think we need 2 more top class players to win the champs league.
the need for a top draw striker is a must now messi has done a u-turn, we are short in strikers and only a top draw striker will do, the price city was paying in wages for messi would cover any top striker in the world
even a fee of £200million for mbappe or £100million for Haaland or even sancho at a buy back clause £70million
Not going to happen, our most expensive player is Mahrez at £60m, although we will need to replace Sergiombappe felix joao Haaland sancho
messi deal is off city have £600 million earmarked for messi wages and transfer market is wide open and city need a striker and a defender
this should be fun and if others are laughing about the messi u=turn then look out
i think city will do very well out of all this messi crap and in the long run and the future their is better options
messi you had your chance now fuck off and we will not be coming back

I fully agree that we need another striker/forward player.
I have my doubts that Jesus can be a main striker like Aguero, though his all round play is excellent. I think Mahrez is hit and miss and the jury is out on Bernardo if he can capture his form again.
I just don't see the club spending that kind of money. They seem very wary of being seen to splash the cash too much.
I think we need another striker/forward player and a top centre midfielder to really challenge for the league and champs league.
None of those players are interested in moving to City. I actually don’t think Mbappe would be that great for us, his overall game isn’t that well suited to our style of play. That’s doubly true for Haaland, who plays like a superior version of Lukaku
Very few attacking players would improve our first team
i think felix joao would be a great signing and looks the part and ticks all the boxes and the young striker would light up the premier league playing for manchester city
(They seem very wary of being seen to splash the cash too much ?)
so why was we giving messi £600 million for 3 years at city and 2 years at NYC
the club wanted a statement signing and messi was top of the list but now this has gone the need is still there
city have to sign a striker and defender just to balance the squad, so why not go and try to sign somebody that will do both as a statement and a draw top striker
Who said we were giving him £600m? Just paper talk that.
We wanted him on a free.
