Thiago Alcantara

[blueparrot]

We know that Thiago is up for grabs at the right price, and he's just about the same age as Gundogan. Would anyone like a possible swap between the two, provided we don't pay up more than 20-25m in addition to the player?

We know Guardiola's likes Thiago, and has worked with him before. He's definitely an excellent midfielder and he'd fit in right like he's at home.

Also, if anyone's not in favour of this idea, I'd love to know why?

Don't think Bayern would be in favour, think they have their targets and want money in.

they're letting out two midfielders in Vidal and Thiago. Don't think they have been linked with a lot of players. They're getting Goretzka but other than that, Gundo can be quality for them and I'm sure he'll love going back to Germany

Would love him at City great player still young enough but experienced at the same time suits our game and the way we play him Jorginho dihno and Gundogen as central midfielders would be out of this world. Can always dream ;)

I wouldn’t be surprised if this is merged into the “It’s quiet” thread...

With regards to Thiago, I don’t see why we would be in for him unless the Jorginho deal collapses or Gundogan leaves this summer.

Class player I suggested him over Jorginho and ppl were going on at me on here saying don’t be stupid your a rag etc.. he has a lot more energy than Jorginho and is more naturally gifted and would surprise a lot of ppl over in England IMO if he was to come play here. Sign him up Pep

I still won't take him over Jorginho but I'd take him over Gundo

Only way I could see this happening is a swap deal involving Gundogan.

 

[Sir Joe Aguero]

He's fantastic but very injury prone. Averages 20 league games a season, 30 in total. I can't see where Thiago would fit in if we sign Jorginho and B.Silva will probably move more centrally if Mahrez comes.

As many others have said, I think we'll only be in for him if we get a great offer for Gundogan.

Class player. I’d be very happy if we signed him.
