Awful. Quite telling when Lyon don't want to activate the buy option.

Right midfielders also.

It's what we should expect from young players. Spells of inconsistency. He's still better suited in our system than Lukaku.

To be perfectly honest the only way I will be optimistic is if Boehly and co sack our entire scouting department day 1. Tchouameni rumored to decide between Liverpool or Real next week whereas we have our dick in our hands because the club thought it would be a better idea to get Lukaku and Saul on loan.

Watch our marquee/statement signing be only Kounde.

Then I fear the premonition I made last august will come true.

If Lukaku is still here think im with @Tomo in saying I’ll just refuse to watch. He’s going to destroy the dressing room with his sulking.

If that’s the case viewership and attendance is going to plummet. No one wants to watch another disaster season of inconsistent performances and getting spanked in Europe again.

I'd rather avoid all Eredivisie players moving forward.

Can't believe you even replied. Like comparing Xavi to Joe Allen.

I really fear for next season. Don't think we will complete the massive overhaul required to take us to the next step, let alone finishing in the Top 4.

Havertz does my head in sometimes.

Well I mean I am seeing posts from fans suggesting because Kenedy is having a good game (one good game) against one of the worst teams in the league he is good enough to be a backup or squad option. We are a fickle quick trigger fanbase. We get what we deserve sometimes.

Romano just tweeted again Alonso still set to leave and entering personal terms with Barcelona.

Everything I've heard from Tuchel regarding this slow possession play he seems completely contempt with. We can blame injuries, sanctions, etc, etc, but the main problem for me will always be tactics. That being said, Tuchel has deserved and earned time to build his team.

What is Tuchel's imagine and style?

Very difficult to lure players out of Italy. Comfortable and beautiful lifestyle.

I thought we offered him 200kpw in December, turned it down, we then maxed the offer to 230kpw in January and he still declined?

Matip dealt with counter attacks so easily. By himself. If Rudiger or anyone of our CBs are by themselves in a counter attack we'd be clenching our arseholes.

Watching Matip last night has me convinced he is arguably the 2nd best CB in the league. Matter of fact, watching VVD, Matip, Konate, and Dias has me realise our CBs are genuinely no where near the best. The way all 4 of them cover space with their defensive awareness whilst still playing a very high line is exceptional. Rudiger and Christensen are going to get exposed I reckon.

He's Juventus bound. Reports we agreed terms with him were allegedly false according to italian outlets.

I'd be surprised if Cucurella isn't a City player come August.

Kounde plays in a back 4 at Sevilla.

He looks a liability defensively but Sevilla's defensive record this season is the best in the league.
