I think we are either gonna have to put up or shut up this summer! clubs know the premier league has a new tv deal this summer and we also have the man city tax anyway? when mane goes for £34m and troy deeney bid rejected for £25m then we need to get the big name players in for a change and not settle for second best or the fernandos and delphs of the world!

Gundogan is a good signing but the others we are being linked with Sane, Stones et al are expensive potential. Really think we need to make a statement and buy someone to really improve our first eleven. Someone who will dominate games like Yaya used to do.

agreed mate. kroos would be a wonderful signing but we still need another one worldy at least?
 
Depends what you mean by worldy, talent wise or name wise. Would you have called Costa or Coman worldies last summer ?

Nail. Head. Think its important to see what a truly world class manager can get out of the tools he has at his disposal. We need a team, not a expensively assembled collection of individuals which is what I feel we have had for a few years now.

I agree , but there is a reason why Real Madrid win more CL than any other team. If we really want to make a mark in Europe then we need a team that is at the level of RM, Barca and BM. They are a level above because they get the best players available.

But Real were only a penalty shoot out better than Atletico Madrid who are the total opposite to Real. We can probably attract better players than Atletico so if we can play as a team better than the sum of it's parts we can compete with the very best.

Athletico have had a good team for a few seasons but had years in the wilderness RM are thereabouts all the time. City's aim is to be as big as the big three then we need to think like they do not like Athletico who could easily lose three players and drop back to being also rans. We don't need to buy 3 mega stars but to be right at the top then like KDB last season we now need to look at picking up another top quality player this window, to keep building and improving.

I like this way of thinking. Unfortunately we also have a rebuild job on our hands as we have allowed our team to grow too old, so it is not easy. In general I would like us to be in the position you describe, and then focus on buying a KDB or a Pogba every summer.
 
Dembele to Celtic...wow. On another note, think the transfers are gonna be flying left and right once the Euros get done, or once a player has been eliminated. Here's hoping Nolito and Stones are soon
