Special Juan 28,870 Posted August 30, 2023 Share Posted August 30, 2023 Poch apparently signed him off, club are going for it right now apparently. Seeing statements like "City may not want to sell to a rival" 🤣 like saying Rotherham is a threat to us Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mhsc 1,160 Posted August 30, 2023 Share Posted August 30, 2023 He would be a similar purchase to Carney for me. Might work out and might be ready to even play for us now, but its really hard to say until they get a run of games and we just see. If the deal is right, there is a tonne of potential upside, and little downside - probably the lowest expectation for his career would be that he ends up at a midtable PL club. It is definitely a much bigger bet than Kudus so the deal has to be for far less money and far less wages. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mhsc 1,160 Posted August 30, 2023 Share Posted August 30, 2023 Honestly I've got no beef with us picking up 'scraps' from City, should have taken Lavia, Gabriel Jesus and Zinchenko too when they were up for sale. Minimum is that the people they let go become very useful squad players wherever they go. They don't let bad players even exist in the first team squad.

Jype 6,398 Posted August 30, 2023 Share Posted August 30, 2023 Just now, Special Juan said: Seeing statements like "City may not want to sell to a rival" 🤣 like saying Rotherham is a threat to us We're not going to be of any threat to City in the short term but surely anyone looking at the squad we're building should think we could be onto something eventually. Chilwell, Colwill, Badiashile, James, Gusto, Enzo, Caicedo, Lavia, Nkunku, Sterling, Jackson etc. is a great core for the next years IMO. There are still some question marks over long term suitability and quality of our GKs, RCBs and some of the wingers but at this point in the project that's to be expected.

Pizy 19,378 Posted August 30, 2023 Share Posted August 30, 2023 If we get him I’m just curious where Poch sees him. As someone mentioned on the last page Sterling has started the season brilliantly on that right side of our attack. But it appears that’s Palmer’s best position. His next most natural position seems to be the #10 area. But what happens eventually when all of Nkunku, Carney, and Gallagher are fit?

We have a lot of options and versatile players which can have the side play numerous formations and systems.

Pizy 19,378 Posted August 30, 2023 Share Posted August 30, 2023 In this day and age of hyper inflated fees there was obviously no chance City were going to sell one of their brightest youngsters for £35m. We’re going to have to pay an uncomfortable amount for him if we want him. For a kid who has barely played it’s a huge risk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
