I reckon this time tomorrow, we are going to be begging for this transfer to happen. Willian's inconsistency in the third. Pedro past it. Tammy needing 5 chances to put 1 away. CHO's lack of composure in the third. Pulisic's muscular imbalances that don't seem to go away. And now Arsenal leading. A poor result tomorrow might be what pushes us.

Disagree. Ziyech primarily operates as a CAM. With Barkley and Willian gone, this leaves a lot of availability. LW - CHO/Pulisic/Mount CAM - Ziyech/RLC/Mount RW - Sancho/Ziyech CM - Jorginho/Kovacic/Kante

There are proven winners in team, combined with academy players who won it all at youth level. Pressure shouldn't mean anything to us.

Barkley and Willian's presence, the latter rumored to be offered an extension, are primarily the reasons why I can't see Sancho coming. That said, the rumors won't go away.

Must win now. Had two weeks to prepare. Fatigue shouldn't be an issue. Massive, and I mean massive questions need to be asked if we lose this. Done hearing the usual 'We need to be doing better". Start doing it.

Right then, let’s see how we respond

And you just fucking know, without any doubt, Villa’s laughable defence will magically turn into the Milan of old when we play them. Fuck off you mugs. Hope city batter you in the final.

Pepe Reina has kept them in this game

Comical defending this entire game

Knowing our luck he’ll tear his Achilles and be out for 9 months

And they just stand their after Reina save it

Villa just can’t defend

I wouldn't entirely rule this out given even after our Ziyech purchase, the media and even our top correspondents still state we are still looking, and in some case favorites, to bring him in. There has to be some element of truth.

Klopp will revert to his regular 4-2-3-1 if this happens I'd imagine. Werner declined joining them last season given he thought he wouldn't start. If he's tempted to join now I'd wager Klopp and his reps told him their plan. Werner Mane-----Firmino-----Salah

As conservative as I am, I don't think there should be a blanket ruling on abortion. Touchy subject.

This. Regarding Sancho, the only way I can see this happening is if both Willian and Pedro leave, along with Barkley. CAM - Ziyech/RLC/Mount RW - Pulisic/CHO/Mount LW - Sancho/Ziyech CM - Jorginho/Kante/Kovacic/RLC

Serious questions will then need to be asked towards Frank.

Should be docked 20 points for two seasons. City will pull a Chelsea 2016/2017 for those two seasons they are banned from Europe. Least this way their actions won't benefit them in the league.

High-level sources say that will force the Premier League to act due to their own licensing, which pertains to Uefa’s Financial Fair Play regulations

Lampard is putting a lot of faith in CHO and Pulisic to develop into top players.

Chilwell is so bang average and it does my head in reading Lampard wants him

One bloke I know who saw him at the bridge stated it was one of the best individual performances he’s ever seen, and he’s been a match goer for 30 years

Great start from our board. Keep me coming

Will he play CAM or RW?

Some of his transfer demands were absurd.
