Thiago Alcantara

[gomer27]

If Pogba to Barca, Rakitic wouldn't be abad option.

if pogba does in fact go to barca i agree rakitic would be a great option, imo he is better then thiago

 

[CΛL]

Don't need another injury prone player, although he is very good.

 

[Otamendi's Beard]

Absolute class and dominated the game last night.

Would love either him or Verratti at City.

 

[Silva2021]

If we get Pep, Thaigo would an absolute diamond and would replace the ball retention of Yaya and understand Pep's way of playing perfectly! Bayern could sell as they are stocked in that position and knowing them they will no doubt be buying the best centre mid in Germany who plays for a rival team.

 

[MCFCFanTX]

Thought he played incredibly well against Arsenal.

Very impressed by the 19 year old Coman, who's pace left the Gunners out of their depth, as well though it isn't hard to look good when playing alongside Mueller, Alcantera, Lewandowski and Costa.

 

[Andouble]

Hope he's our first signing in the summer.

 

[KCblue]

Would welcome this lad into the squad in a heartbeat.

 

[City_Sean]

Hope he's our first signing in the summer.

Only issue is his injury record, missed a lot of games.

 

[Kompany is King]

Would Thiago be good enough defensively for us?

I think I would prefer Veratti but am open to persuasion.

 

[Pubteam Lomas]

Only issue is his injury record, missed a lot of games.

Perfect fit for us then!!!

 

[MeatHunterrr]

Hope he's our first signing in the summer.

doubt bayern would sell, unless we offer silly money

 

[yeseye]

No chance of that happening.

 

[KingCarlito]

Thiago is by far the best centre mid in the world, it'd take a daft transfer fee.

 

[ninjamonkey]

I don't think Bayern are going to be too happy with us taking their manager, i doubt they'll be overly keen to do business with us. And they don't need the money. Impressive work from Txiki if we can get him but i won't be expecting anybody to follow Pep from Bayern.

 

[Dax777]

They better check to make sure his injuries are not chronic. We have enough sicknotes who only play half our games. Time we start buying players made of sturdier stuff.

Will rather have a slightly less talented but more consistently fit player

 

[Dax777]

And why do you suppose Barca will want to give him up?

I think the point of buying Pogba would be to play him in CM with Rakitic and Busquet.

 

[ell]

To be fair if we offer a large enough fee Bayern might look at his injury record and decide to cash in

 

[Manc Born & Bred]

I might be wrong here but I thought he had signed for the rags along with Bale, Tranny, Neymar, Benzema, Lewandowski, Mullar, Sneijder and Ramos.

That is some serious hyperbole (which says a lot coming from me, hah). Would love to have him and he might grow to become it, but he is not the best CM in the world let alone by far. I think his injury record is too scary personally.

pogba will cost a 100 million possibly more, i think we could pry him away but who knows....everyone has a price
