Navas on his way ?

BlueCityfan said:
I think Bony, Kolarov, Nasri and possibly Yaya are higher on Pep's list of players to sell. But Navas might come next. So he could leave. Which would leave us with 3 natural wide players. Sterling, Nolito and Sane (assuming we get him). With Nasri, KDB and Silva capable of playing there. However, in January when hopefully Jesus arrives.... :) We'd have 4 natural wide options again. So it shouldn't be a big loss.

Nasri will flourish.

I don't think he will at all. Hasn't got the work-rate. We all know Nasri is a talented player but he, for me, lacks the motivation and desire of the very top players. When the going gets rough, Nasri isn't usually there.

It all goes back into us originally signing these players and over-paying for their services. No one will pay Yaya close to 220K a week. No one will pay 25M for Bony. We've backed ourselves into a corner which is certainly frustrating as we've seemed to have this problem for years e.g. Adebayor.

Agreed. I don't understand why we have not chosen to subsidize their wages for 1-2 years a la Adebayor, but I can't really begin to try and understand the complexities of these deals or what Txiki is thinking.

Surely some not so intelligent Chinese clubs are the best options for yaya, bony, kolarov, zabaleta and possibly navas. I can't see delph being part of a pep team considering his limited technical ability, but maybe cause he's English we could sell him to a pl club for say £15m

Whilst China certainly has money to spend, it might not be everyones cup of tea. I think Delph will certainly be part of Peps plans.

Some on here want Txiki to pay the few extra millions to get a transfer done. They probably forget Txiki needs to settle the players salary as well to make a transfer happen. If he does, than who are we to moan about the players salary when he can actually leave? And for the record, it's not the nplayer asking for a transfer, it's actually City that at some point will tell the player he is no longer needed. Than it's up to the player and his agent to see if any clubs are interested and willing to settle the salary issue as well.
Didn't Txiki agreed to the core of players at City, except yaya, to lower their salary and up this with bonusses?

As this thread is about Navas, this is probably one of a few who is not on a big weekly payment. And we all know Navas has the desire to return home. For me he is not the first player I want to go at all, and he has done a great job over the years. If he ends up being back up to Sane with the latter still to prove himself, I can't think of a better one myself.

Nasri lacks the attitude & application, does not fit into a Pep culture .... Navas does not have the talent of Nasri & can be frustrating at times but he always give 100% and never stops trying whereas Nasri well....

Your claim that the player and his agent are responsible Doesn't sound right. They have a contract and if the club want rid, surely the club will lead in looking for alternatives

Didn't say they are responsible, I said it's up to them.
I know it's not working this way with most of the players nowadays, but if I was by long financial independent I would try and play as much football as I can and order my agent to work for his money and find me a club with the notion of being willing to lower my salary. Unfortunately I'm not a professional footballplayer with a weekly salary like most at City and told to go and look elsewhere.
