Tijjani Reijnders - Welcome to City

[Stoned Rose]

Yeah absolutely.

Mate, I can't wait. We are goung to absolutely smash League 2!

Invincibles incoming mate!

 

[Stoned Rose]

Bit harsh on Kova, isn't it? He's 31. Gundo, on the other hand, is 34. I thought Mateo was playing quite well again towards the end of the season. Gundo's race, in my view, is run. If he does actually stay in a playing capacity, I'd expect him to be playing the odd match here and there, or bits of matches, and increasingly stepping into a backroom coaching staff role (which would please me very much).

“Quite well” is not good enough for us mate.

At 31 he’s only going to get slower and more one footed than he already is.

Coat time.

Weird that people prefer Gundogan to Kovacic who carried us last season. Kovacic was the best out of those 3 where 2 have to leave

We won't need to register anyone (other than for the CWC) until the end of August, and all 3 will definitely be registered then, others won't be here by then, I'm sure the club will get it right.

That's what I meant, thought the post I was replying to was suggesting them all staying for another year.

It's Bluemoon - look no further then the Doku thread.

 

[Keepingthefaithsince1976]

Great news. We needed some younger legs for the midfield.

 

[BlueAnorak]

Welcome Tijjani:
The peerfect replacement for Gundogan - should he leave.
Gives us a good batch of players to play in Central Mid.
- Rodri
- Reijnders
- Nico &
- Kovacic
We need to rotate more here to keep the team fit and fresh and deal with injuries.
We were hit hard here this season with Longvterm injury to Rodri and Kovacic wasn't exactly an ever present was he?

These three signings PLUS Rodri coming back

 

[Manchester_lalala]

Next summer the only ones at the club will be:

Rodri, Nico, Reijnders, and O’Reilly.

So save the cash for next summer. No need for another midfielder.

 

[Manchester_lalala]

Missed off Cherki, Grealish, Nunes and McAtee.

Wouldn’t class them as central midfielders.

 

[warpig]

Impressive and swift work by Viana. Great start. Now to shift the dead wood.

 

[Gorton_Tubster]

Yep good work by oour club. Always quiet and no media fuss

 

[noseve]

Missed off Cherki, Grealish, Nunes and McAtee.

... Echeverri? He must be thrilled

 

[footballmanager]

so many new toys, maybe the cwc will be interesting after all

 

[Radcliffe 1309]

Official now

Our midfield is fixed

I hope your right, though ot might need a fully fit and back to normal Rodri to be absolutely sure....fingers crossed

 

[VOOMER]

All for less than the rags spent on Oyelaund and Buster Keaton.

This type of thinking got us into our situation in the first place.

One new central midfielder is absolutely not enough and we’ve done the right thing getting another high quality signing in.

We can now focus on letting 1-2 players go by the end of summer.

Will need to be far more than 1-2
