Hope he enjoys a similar role at City that he had at Real Madrid. If he's got any sense he'll realise that backup at City is a great gig for him. Indeed, if it's true that he's joining them, then it seems that he does understand that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jype 6,398 Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 Stupid move by Danilo if he indeed ends up at City. Rumour was that he's looking to quit Real Madrid to play more instead of being just Carvajal's backup and then he goes to City after they just paid £50M for Walker who is guaranteed to play every game when fit. At Chelsea he'd be challenging Moses and would have a real chance of breaking in the Starting XI if he did well. Wasn't that convinced by this guy to begin with, but don't really see many better options out there either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DYC. 7,542 Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 I'm with Greavsie. Ricardo Pereira is impressive and easily the superior player. I can only hope the club will surprise by purchasing him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChelseaFanUK 1,014 Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 Playing devils advocate here, but were we definitely in for him? Reports seemed to say so and i actually believed we were, but at beginning of window i considered Moses and Azpi as decent enough for RWB; and thought LWB was in need of an upgrade. Marca will be all over this soon if its true that city have indeed got him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not about whether you like the player or not, it's about us losing out in a 1 horse race again. Now we need to start from scratch, which we know will take a long time with no guarantees of not losing out again. The first week of July I was calm regarding our situation, but by now alarm bells are ringing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
termninja 5,290 Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 For how much we lost Danilo Now we will sign some average centre back and force the poor lad to play right back... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

akgw13 867 Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 I will believe the transfer when it is announced and he holds up the jersey. He isnt the end all be all of RWB options but he was a very good option for us. I hope we can do something to steal the deal. If not i wont be terribly upset but I think he has something to offer and will be a good player wherever he goes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't be a one horse race if man city signs him deals don't happen overnight. #justsaying Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magic Lamps 11,692 Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 I have no clue how good this Danilo guy is but I know we were actually in for him and in an instant he is off to City where his chances of playing time are relatively low. That our board is incompetent we know already but dafuq has happened here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RoyalBlues 4,050 Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 Good thing is that there are a lot of options for good WB out there, unlike striker position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if he's up to it but that's their problem. We need a starter and that ain't this lad. Get Pereira. Agree. Im very content on missing out on Lukaku & Danilo. Especially the latter. But at the same token, if these are Conte/Emenalo/Marina Top priorities, missing out on two back-to-back is not a good look at all. Anyways, Perreria is a great shout, would be a lot cheaper as well. Would like a cheeky move for Chamberlain as well tbh. Can't think of any other RWB that are available tbh. Edit: and if it's Adama Traore... Scenes.

Mufassir08 2,400 Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 If Conte could fix Aurier's attitude, he could be a bargain for the reportedly 20m PSG are asking for him. Would absolutely own that right flank on his own in the PL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
