Nope we had net spend to think about. Which we achieved
Christ. How depressing!
Lost out on a generational talent because of net spend. I like Doku. Love him in fact. But we sold Palmer and bought Doku for not much less.
The real fuckup for me is the realization we actually didn't have to sell him. He wanted to go on loan but Pep not being happy with his decision not to take a bit role, demanded he either stay or get sold.Don’t care what anybody says. It was a monumental fuck up selling Palmer.
That to me is just a Royal fuck up of unacceptable magnitude. It you don't have to sell a good young player ( especially one already close to the first team) you absolutely shouldn't.
Many deny it, but it looked like he was sold on out of spite :(
He has well and truly lost his place in the England set up unfortunatelyPalmer looks like he wants to play.
Would have bought his own strepsils.
Selling Palmer was an absolute brilliant piece of business. It might stop the Tarquins and the Scouse bastards winning the league
Great to see the lad do well. I certainly don't yearn for him like the ex girlfriend who loved beer and anal

It was a mistake to let these two get away. There is no point being in denial. Hindsight is great but no doubt it was a mistake in my view. Like most City fans I wasn't sure about Palmer though he looked great in the Community Shield. I was wrong like many of us. I always rated Lavia though he did have bad injuries.I'm sure we couldn't keep lavia fit that's why sell on clause with Southampton

IIRC We sold cole for 40 and signed Doku for 50. ?Christ. How depressing!

Thats next season.It looks like it’s paying off because they’ve got a large squad and are essentially playing a game a week. The conference league is them playing a whole other team. Wait until they start playing UCL football and have to play their first team.
Getting into the champions league is their aim this season
There was an awful of deadwood at Chelsea already on big money before Maresca came.
They now appear to have a lot of younger players
