Summer Transfers

Ismaïla Sarr looks like a decent player. Watford may still get relegated. We could go for him as a Sane's replacement
 
If our aim is to use the "academy where possible" to strengthen the first team, then we are using players "who look like top prospects" correct?
if we have no such players in the academy, is it wrong of us to look for those type of players in the transfer market? instead of going after:

Because according to you, our aim should be to look for "Players who look like Top Prospects:"



My point about the academy was to use the players who've come up through it, City should always be buying the top 15-17 year olds to keep the 18s/EDS stacked in the hopes some turn good enough for the first team. What I don't think we should be doing is buying an army of 18/19 year olds for the first team which push the younger academy lads further down the chain. Thats what I mean, of course we all dream of a homegrown City XI winning the League and all the rest, but ready made players 22-26 etc should always be the first team transfers in priority, with say 15-17 the academy transfer priority. I hope that makes sense
 
Pau Torres
Hakimi
Alaba
Havertz
Sancho

out:

bravo
Cancelo
Otamendi
Angelino
Gundogan
Sané
David Silva
Jack Harrison
Patrick Roberts
Alexia García

if we win at CAS and rules get relaxed with FFP then get spending! Lol. The dippers are struggling for cash at the minute and may have to sell to buy. We will have a huge chuck of wages freed up from bravo, Merlin and Otamendi alone? Decent fees from Sané and cancelo or possible swap for him with another team? Chelsea strengthened already and our biggest failing is not improving properly when we are top? Madrid and Barça buy every summer window some new top players and our recruitment last summer was not good enough! Love Rodri but not signing a CB was ridiculous.

Agree with all bar the unlikelihood of bagging Alaba , so Chiwell would be good. and I wouldn’t sell Cancelo. Also, think Sancho is highly unlikely and Aouar would be good. Gundogan has another season or so I think.
 
Just been mentioned on BT that Saka has one year left on his contract. I’d love to sign him, very versatile, English, quick and has good fundamentals I think Pep could really do a job with.
