Is weird that we don’t appear to have planned for Walker’s replacement. The warning signs were there way before he left.

You could probably add a 35year old Danilo to that list who mugged us off for Juventus last year and im not even sure if he has a club at the moment but would be a better fullback than the current two

Do a deal with Spurs, money and Djed Spence for Savinho
It’s bonkers. Can’t understand it at all.
I thought we really messed it up with Porro. Walker was already in decline back then, and it was a perfect opportunity to bring him back.

Maybe we have identified our future rb but contractually it suits everyone to wait another year. I’m clutching as this situation is fairly negligent as things stand
It’s astounding that we feel we are ok. . We are making sure we are dropping way of the title pace with every stupid decision .

We were strongly linked to Hakimi. But then he was accused of rape in the middle of the Mendy sexual assault charges, & we promptly dropped our interest.
It's understandable in terms of negative optics & opposition fans preparing to call us Rapist FC, so we missed out on him.
He's been charged & recently French investigators have asked judges to send him to trial...
French prosecutors on Friday called for Moroccan international Achraf Hakimi to face trial for the alleged rape of a woman in 2023 which the Paris Saint-Germain player denies.
The Nanterre prosecutor's office told AFP that they had requested that the investigating judge refer the rape charge to a criminal court.
"It is now up to the investigating magistrate to make a decision within the framework of his order," the prosecutor's office told AFP in a statement.

I'm still gutted, but I understood City's predicament, especially with the Mendy situation rumbling on through the courts & being widely reported in the media.
PSG were very open to selling Hakimi, but later took the stance of innocent until proven guilty, especially as Hakimi denied the allegations & it was the woman concerned word against his.

Absolutely criminal if we get to the end of the window with just Lewis and Nunes as our right backs

Have you always done motivational speaking for a living ?
Tbh I can be a right cantankerous bastard when I want
Lol, that reads like a commentary
Some speed? He is one of yhe fastest players in the league
Oh shit!!! Its happening!!!!!
Does that include when he headed the ball back poorly to the keeper that Marmoush nearly turned into a goal? Or losing Marmoush on his cut to the middle for the chance he hit at the keeper?
Im sure if Lewis gave up these types of blunders, very few will be saying he was tremendous.
That said, i agree he was decent. As he, just like Lewis, is a good fullback.
