Remember all the journalists and opposition fans killing us last summer and saying we were absolutely mad to sell Mount and that we’d regret it for years? And now we’re the ones laughing because we don’t miss him at all. It would be annoying for sure to see him at Spuds. But he isn’t a game changing signing. He’s just a solid PL midfielder like lots of midtable clubs have. He’s not a match winner, he’s not decisive in the final third, and his talent is nowhere near the other midfielders we have. Unless we enter the season with one of Lavia, Enzo, or Caicedo injured again long term I can’t imagine a scenario where I say “damn, we could really use Gallagher here.” He performed well in the chaos football that Poch played where Conor could just run around nonstop like a madman, but I don’t see him being as useful in heavy possession side where quick intricate football is the goal. Prob helps your argument, but people's memory of Mount is kinda funny. He was decisive in a way Conor not yet dreamt of. In 21 CL run he scored in the quarters (Porto), semis (Real Madrid), and assisted in the final. It's also a bit soon to praise that sale given his age, and the season he had -- would be akin to rule out Nkunku because of his fitness struggles. Kai was struggling too until he wasn't. I agree your assessment tho. If I were forced to give a contrarian argument, would just say that having a player clicking the way Conor has, isn't something to disregard so quickly. Also that some of or subs in midfield are very green and/or not very good (Ugo). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mhsc 1,097 Posted June 5, 2024 Share Posted June 5, 2024 I do hope we don't fuck about this summer, get all buying done in time for everyone to have a full and proper preseason and spend the rest of summer just working on flogging players. Look at how much Caicedo struggled arriving so late in the window... Lets not fuck about this time. Much less business to do as well, and the club have had all year to think about specific targets. The only difference now is to focus in on ones suitable for the new manager maybe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robsblubot 3,595 Posted June 5, 2024 Share Posted June 5, 2024 2 minutes ago, whats happening said: 80 milion for alvarez? I would sign him in a heartbeat. Excellent player who can operate in tight spaces and can play in multiple attacking positions. bigbluewillie and kexik 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mário César 1,278 Posted June 5, 2024 Share Posted June 5, 2024 80M pounds its too much but I prefer give this for him that 100M pounds for oimhen, for example Fernando and cfccrost 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pizy 18,928 Posted June 5, 2024 Share Posted June 5, 2024 Alvarez is the picture perfect striker for us. I would think Arse would love him too but as a City’s biggest title threat I’m not sure they’d sell to them. Would likely take him really pushing for a move. robsblubot 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The number of starts by Mudryk this season tells everything you need to know about Sterling's form.

I think he has been bang average this season. I know he is behind Haaland but the few games where he has played up front, he has not convinced at all. I think he would struggle in a lone striker formation for any team bar City. His first season at City he looked a lot better. This season, he has been underwhelming. He may be a better finisher than Jackson but I don't think he is ready to lead the line for us at all. If we are going to go for a CF, defo think we should look elsewhere.
