The Skipper

But he isn't better than James right now is he?

I'm not that fussed about Solanke leaving but... You're definitely a clown if you believe this. You do know Solanke has an unbelievable youth record right? He's also just won best player at the U20 WC as well. You're very weird.

And he did the right thing.

Baka is actually quite similar to a young Vidal, so if that's your dream...

Yeah, he used to basically play F9 for AZ, top player. His transition to midfield has been superb. Sure we nearly signed him? Or were interested at least. Shame.

Why? How is he better than James?

I still wouldn't mind him. Just think the former are better players/higher ceiling.

No, Tolisso is an all rounder in the mold of Ballack/Lampard.

Would anyone take Dani Alves on a free?

Quite sad if City sign Alexis - thought the guy wanted to stay in London? Maybe he changed his mind after that atrocious FA Cup final display.

City aren't nearly as crazy as some make them out to be. It would actually make sense. Sané, Sterling, Bernardo Silva and Jesus are talented young players (don't think Iheanacho has a future there) but they won't win you the war. They need to play though. It seriously doesn't make sense in my head, some of them will definitely leave, if not now in January. Sad to see City take the transfer market so seriously though, massive ambition. We're here just trying to manage. We need to sign at least one or two superstars to keep up with City.

Maybe Conte is counting on Cesc next season more. Bakayoko - Fabregas is nice too. If Kante is out injured, no problem. £35m a decent price for a good talent.

Top post. Almost an identical feeling for me. If you don't let your emotions come into play, and actually look at this rationally, even if you don't like the player, you can't honestly say he's as bad as some try to make him seem on here, and on Twitter.

Great video. Adding it to my Lukaku ammunition. THIS IS MORATA V LUKAKU. THIS IS CIVIL WAR

No no. No carbs man.

Gladbach twitter has tweeted numerous times that he's coming back, hope the club give him an important role next season. He needs to really impress Conte this preseason.

Hope he has a strict diet.

Is that the Lukaku who is supposedly so so bad technically and really bad at trapping the ball, getting an assist? Wow.

Looks like Bayern are actually signing him. We should try steal Renato Sanches from them.

If this is truly your view, I don't think you truly grasp or understand football, it's meaning to people or it's history.

Haha. Perhaps, in fact I wouldn't say that's wrong. But, there isn't really a 100% outright "best" option tbh.

So Hazard Lukaku Mbappe? I remember suggesting something similar a few months ago, and I got scorned at lol. Now people are absolutely okay with us spending over £100m on the kid? Life comes at you fast.

The thing is, you're pretending that Didier didn't get abuse for it, when he did.

Did Didier want to leave every season?

Don't be so obscene. A club is nothing without its fans.
