Insane price for a brainless RB.
May be different this time as they'll actually be buying quality defenders.Annual creaming over City has begun. August and September will be u unbearable.
I wouldn't hold my breath.May be different this time as they'll actually be buying quality defenders.
They paid a fortune on their defense all these past years and all in vain.May be different this time as they'll actually be buying quality defenders.
On shite like Mangala, Demechelis, and Otamendi. Walker + Mendy are class and would walk into any other side in the league.They paid a fortune on their defense all these past years and all in vain.

Didn't we think that when they bought Otamendi? And Stones? And Mangala? And on it goes...May be different this time as they'll actually be buying quality defenders.
Mangala and Otamendi weren't shite when they signed for them. They became shite after wearing City shirt.On shite like Mangala, Demechelis, and Otamendi. Walker + Mendy are class and would walk into any other side in the league.
That's true. I just can't see either of these fullbacks failing.Mangala and Otamendi weren't shite when they signed for them. They became shite after wearing City shirt.
Mangala and Otamendi were supposed to be highly rated at the time. Walker was on a comparable level to Valencia and Moses last season and I imagine the hype surrounding Mendy will fade a bit.On shite like Mangala, Demechelis, and Otamendi.

Something tells me that his sell price to us would be significantly higher.If Bonucci is available for 40m do it and get rid of Smalling and Jones.
What's the issue exactly? I have even said in his thread that I haven't followed his career closely and have seen him have good games. I'm not even against the signing, he just wouldn't excite me, what's the issue with that? If he comes then that's grand and hopefully he's nowhere near as bad as some make out.Exactly which is why if Jose and his scouts reckon he can do a job for us then he cant be that bad. As for the cost involved the market has gone nuts and nobody is worth the money being quoted.
Should make it more difficult for Spurs to explain to Dier why they wont sell himTweet

ah ok - missed thatIt was in response to someone suggesting we sell both Jones and Smalling and would buy Bonucci.
First of all I don't think Jose will sell both Jones and Smalling, he'll keep one around for cover. Imo together with Bailly, Lindelof, Rojo and Tuanzebe that is comfortable.
If we would sell both, it would be stupid to spend alot on someone like Bonucci as we already have alot of good centrebacks. I think we might someone in reserve that won't cost alot of money. But if we didn't I think we would also be ok as we have 4 good centrebacks and on top of that Blind, Carrick, Darmian and TFM that could cover in case of emergency aswell. It is more cover than most teams have.
Meh, it would be 40 for Milan, 60 for Chelsea, City, ... and 80 for United. Kinda.If Bonucci is available for 40m do it and get rid of Smalling and Jones.
Sterling and possibly Stones will start the season as squad players too. Crazy.So they'll have £50m Sterling, £55m KDB, £50m Stones, £50m Mendy, £50m Kyle Walker, and I believe Bernardo's fee rises to £50m with add-ons.
And they have released Sagna, Clichy and Zabaleta don't forget.City were weak in both full back positions last summer. Signing Mendy and Walker will improve them massively.
Kyle Walker and world record fee.Tweet

An injury to either of their full backs and they are in even worse state than last season even after spending 100m on full backsCity were weak in both full back positions last summer. Signing Mendy and Walker will improve them massively.
