Problem of course is how difficult, and expensive, it is to sign players under contract. He looks a real talent. He was already very impressive at City. Apparently they have a 40m buy back clause in the contract with Southampton. Their training of thought is most probably along the lines if letting him develop at The Saints and bring him back on the decline of Rodri.

I fully believe Todd backtracked on the deal thinking he can get a better deal in January, which obviously won't and obviously won't matter now, this was the moment to do it, now City will get him for sure. Fofana, Gvardiol and Colwill in 2-3 years was stuff of legends move, now we will get another Koulibaly where people make him out to be the best yet so far looks worse than that shrimp from United. Maybe one day you'll have something positive to say about something, someone at Chelsea. Criticise Criticise Criticise that's all you do.

Another one bites the dust. He's already at a price point which doesn't leave many options though. I cannot see Barcelona being in position to go for him. PSG seem to be going down a different route now and would have to move Neymar on to make way for him. Doubt United will after their investments in Sancho and Antony over the last 2 summers. Liverpool unlikely to commit to that fee and if they did, they won't commit to both him and Bellingham for those sort of fees. Bayern have just signed Mane so unlikely. City possibly but they already have the likes of Grealish and Foden operating there. Madrid are probably the most likely but even then they have Vinicius playing in the same position unless one operated from the right hand side. If the talk is going to be £100m or more, I don't see massive competition for him in all honesty. Whether we would be prepared to drop that sort of transfer fee when we still need to sort our midfield and potentially keep tabs on our striking options for next summer I'm not sure. I don't like spending huge sums on a player because they regularly don't work out here! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't like spending huge sums on a player because they regularly don't work out here! I think he'll either end up at City or Madrid. The latter seems more probable, and despite Vini playing in a similar position, I could see Leao starting to play more centrally to fill the void that will be left whenever Benzema calls time.

cosmicway 1,333 Posted September 5, 2022 Share Posted September 5, 2022 After the Haaland failure there is only one player we should be after: Killian Mbappe His relations with PSG are on the brink of disaster and another PSG failure in the champions league will be the last straw. bigbluewillie and Vesper 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This guy doesn't paint himself a very good light but I guess it's kind of refreshing to see somebody have the balls to try and out the media mafia in their place albeit a poor attempt.
