You must have missed Eddies thread mate.

Alas the match day threaders are saved

Good luck Riyad.
Thanks for the memories.
Ps. Now you’re minted can I have your car? ; )

Wish he had joined city earlier. Incredible servant for our club. Get the bag Riyad

ffs Grealish?

Doesn't really roll off the tongue does it? Plus he can do no wrong now he's proved himself capable of being pissed for 3 weeks straight

Same here, he has been a great player for us and scored some vital goals.

At least the wife won’t hear me scream did you see that everytime he brings the ball under control with such grace!

Could have watched him, (and Jack and Phil), bring that ball under control all day.

Will miss him a lot. Thanks Riyad.

Could be frustrating but also made a great contribution to our success. There’s no room for sentiment but it would have been great to see him get minutes in the finals last season especially as his hat trick got us to the FA Cup final, good luck Ryhad, don’t think you’ll need it though.

So, that’s 30m Mahrez, 19m Traffird and 15m Charles, after the Kovacic fee that’s almost a 40m transfer surplus. Think we’ll see some movement in next couple of weeks.

i think we have sold another 2 for 10m each plus didnt we get 10m for the player who signed for spurs plus we had a surplus last year plus money this year so we could have a very decent war chest now

Thought he looked a bit lost and disheartened towards the end of the season and it's the right time for him to move on. But I think we should be in doubt he's been a match winner at times with the best first touch we've ever seen at City. Good luck Riyad thanks for the memories

Class footballer. Trapping a ball is 2nd nature to him. If he had mastered using that particular talent to immediately get past the defender instead of waiting he'd have increased his goal tally by 20%. Loved him at City though and a wand of a left foot. Good luck Riyadh...all the best.

Very talented player and been an excellent signing for us.

Im terms of pure first touch and taking a ball out of the air, right up there with Ronaldinho and Zidane!

Good luck to him. I always felt he would be leaving pretty soon anyway. He still would have plenty to offer almost any team at any level for a couple of years yet though. Certainly still far far too good to be playing in Saudi right now in my opinion, but thats for another topic!
