Savinho | City reject Spurs approach

[Petethemancinleeds]

Not accepting £60m sums up our window. Hes a lightweight in an increasingly lightweight squad.

What would we have done with the £60m? I think we are better off with him if there was no one significantly better to replace him.

I wouldn't be surprised if Levy fucked the deal by wanting it spread out to him paying a fiver a week.

We shouldn't really sell talented 20 year olds because they are lighweight. They all are except very few

Also I'd be wary of wanting young talent gone because the rest of of the options aren't good enough. Young players like Savio (and Bobb considering he lost a season to injury) is just supposed to look good in flashes as they have done. Currently they both get wildly criticised by our fanbase because they get lumped in with the problem we have with our two more experienced wingers in Doku (2 full seasons now) and Marmoush (26 years of age, massive money) fails to move the needle

Maybe people would have wanted to sell Foden as well if he broke through now

22 isnt that young in sports anymore, messi won ballon dor at that age , yamal was ripping defenders apart at 17 in the biggest stages in the world.yes, they are generational talents, but not lets pretend that every 22 year old is young and have years to improve , most of them probably wont.Doku hasnt improve in anything he does imo.

And let's not pretend that you have to be the finished product at 22 to have any hope of being a top player.

I hope we told him to go fuck himself mate. We should never deal with that **** again.

I agree.

Levy is a ****.

Even his own club supporters know it.

He’s not even 22 anyway.

He’s only recently turned 21, and was 20 for the majority of last season (birthday in April) - which is the form people are evaluating him on, given he hasn’t actually played for us this season yet.

Savio was 20 for the majority of last season, will be 21 for the majority of this and shown enough end product with his assisting to understand that there is basis for a top player here. Agree about Doku, Savio is not at the same crossroad as him yet

Hoping for a MOTM performance in the Derby with him scoring hatrick

When wissa with 1 year left and 29 goes for that was right we had a fee where we’d sell or he stays

What have you (honestly) seen in £116m Wirtz? I haven’t seen anything yet.

This is going to be one of those adverts on the radio soon.....

"Have you been mis-sold a central midfielder? Were you expecting to get a player who could create and score goals? Was there hidden third party commissions? Call us today to make a claim at www.bindippersthismeansmore.****

Don´t think waiting for 3 21-22 year old wingers to get good some day is not the way forward. There should be minimum 1 winger who is very good or near world class player.

Yes. Ian Wright didn't make it at Palace till he was 28.

 

[bluemoon32]

Why are people so heated about how we should have accepted the offer for him, it's not as if we'd have used the money and bought someone else to replace him.

It is not like they ever made an actual offer either, by all accounts.

 

[bluesmith]

Wright signed for Palace when we was 21, Made nearly 300 appearances and signed for Arsenal at 27?

Was there one on the market ?

I’ve seen him get bullied like a little boy by Bournemouth and Le arse…
