Thor 2,817 Posted June 29, 2023 Share Posted June 29, 2023 10 minutes ago, Pizy said: If you told me that we were going to go after an “elite striker” in addition to Jackson (which I’m highly skeptical we will do) and the choice was between Kolo Muani or Osimhen I’d take Kolo Muani without hesitation. Much better footballer and someone who can create for others at a high level. Why is Muani the "proven" striker we are after when Jackson has technically been as good as Muani has in terms of time? When did this hype for Muani start? Fernando 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NikkiCFC 8,516 Posted June 29, 2023 Share Posted June 29, 2023 AV is serious contender for even top4 next season. This season only City won more points than them last 20 PL games and they are top4 last 25 games. Emery did amazing job. Only slow start with amateur Gerrard who left them in relegation zone. And now they add Tielemans and Pau Torres so far. Mhsc 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When did this hype for Muani start? Don’t think we’re after him really. Just a name that we’ve been linked with by Twitter rando’s by the look of it. But he’s got a ton of hype around him after a sensational season. Scored and assisted a ton of goals. While Jackson had a great end to the season Kolo Muani did it over a whole season. He’s a bit older and I would assume more experienced but I haven’t watched him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NikkiCFC 8,516 Posted June 29, 2023 Share Posted June 29, 2023 Muani never scored more than 15 league goals. And is 25 this year. Abraham category player tbh. Wouldn't take him for 30m. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't take him for 30m. Looks like a much better footballer than Tammy to my eyes. Ironically, Tammy reminds me of Osimhen actually. Does just about ALL of his damage as a poacher/predator in the 18 yard box and looks really clumsy elsewhere on the pitch. To be clear, I’m not saying we should go out and spend 100m on Kolo Muani. Just that he’s the profile of #9 we should want. Not another classic big #9 who is great at finishing but average at everything else. If that’s what we want we could just bring Lukaku back.

Reddish-Blue 2,663 Posted June 29, 2023 Share Posted June 29, 2023 1 hour ago, Blue Armour said: Ashley Cole might be a Chelsea man, but when he came in this season as part of Lampards team, I'm sure he would have told Mount to take the money and run. Nearly every player on the planet looks out for themselves. No guarantees of a long career. Wasn't Mount offered 200k (base) per week on a 6+1 contract at Chelsea? He declined that offer but he's happy to go to United for 250k a week on a 6 year contract.... For an academy graduate to be leaving for an extra 50k a week is actually pretty funny. People thought he was the next Lampard but that couldn't be further from the truth. Leeds nil and Norfolkblue1961 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mhsc 1,139 Posted June 29, 2023 Share Posted June 29, 2023 (edited) Surprising no one has bought Zubimendi yet. Thought he was inevitably Barca bound but saw Laportes comments that they can’t afford him or Kimmich. Would be a rock solid midfield if we had Zubi, Caicedo and Enzo.

Pizy 19,249 Posted June 29, 2023 Share Posted June 29, 2023 There’s literally no place in the team for Ziyech. So if this Saudi move breaks down just terminate his contract. He can’t come back here. guddy69, xPetrCechx, bigbluewillie and 1 other 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't insult the latter like that. A large majority of people were saying the former had a much better goal return (it was slight) during his first season in Italy. You know why: Osimhen was busy getting 16 IIRC screws put into his face. His numbers speak for themselves. Osimhen is a whole different player in the box and would have probably taken Napoli to the CL final at least, were he fully fit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robsblubot 3,595 Posted June 30, 2023 Share Posted June 30, 2023 Boehly runs whatever he wants. He probably has better things to do, and has already delegated that as many here stated, but suppose that can change on a whim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
