  1. Great weekend - partly because Chelsea is yet to play
  2. Won't happen till the summer at least. Ipswich are in a relegation fight and selling Delap is suicidal at this point. If the deal that's possible now are Garnacho and Ferguson, I would pass and wait for the summer. As much as I wanted the club to strengthen this month, they've done squat for 30 days. At least don't end the month with panic buys
  3. We do have a lot of bodies so it makes sense trimming the squad. Gusto and Colwill will have to plug in at LB if Cucu is suspended/injured.
  4. Not like there are clubs lining up to pay for Felix. Even Villa wanted only a loan
  5. The GK who came from Strasbourg 😄
  6. Finally, they're signing a midfielder City have moved to fix their problems after the first sign of a blip. Our owners are losing their edge after a few windows where they were super active
  7. Has been good in some games but I think he's not nailed on and has been rotated out a lot
  8. He would start at the club though...😄 over Sancho on the left and this wouldn't be a full blown Nkunku/Felix situation since he's still young
  9. I disagree with the view. He has the worst workrate of any of the attacking mids at the club. Only games to consider Felix was vs low blocks where we don't need a lot of running from midfielders. Otherwise, we would be more open than we already are in games.
  10. He wasn't even racking up the goals against the small teams like Nkunku was + while I think he would be useful vs low blocks, he has been poor in the chances he did get and hasn't influenced games when he has come on to make a case for starts. He's always been accommodated and given starts because of his reputation in my view.
  11. Smart move. Watkins is the better striker at Villa who has handled the burden of being the striker in a large sample of games starting week in week out The board waiting around on 19-22 year olds as usual - It would be crazy if Villa sell a premium striker and we are not in the conversation
  12. Nobody wants to come near his wages. We are stuck with him - might as well integrate into the squad as backup LB
  13. Jhon Duran £58m off set by Joao Felix the other way for ~35m (a small loss on him) is the deal I want to see before the end of the window. All other names the club is linked with won't affect our top 4 chances
  14. Hopefully Saturday's result leads to a change in plans
  15. Awesome. Pay for his flight to Villa
  16. Teams can pay the fee. Or offer a good makeweight instead of another young prospect
  17. Offloading Nkunku at what cost? I'd rather keep Nkunku than get another 19 year old
  18. He's had many worse games. Jackson had a decent first half and even got the assist. As bad as Jackson was at the start of 2nd half, Nkunku upfront alone was worse and made zero sense
  19. Nkunku sub last night was disastrous. Jackson was the forward to keep on when City were playing the high line.
  20. The goalkeeper + defensive mistakes is undoing a lot of the good work this season I think Maresca has been far better than Poch - It never felt like we were 1-2 steps away from a coherent team with Poch. Now, if the board is serious and signs a GK and ST, it could actually make for a good team with Maresca's coaching
