Extremely impressed with him so far this season. He has really stepped up in KDBs absence and his output numbers are great. He has a directness and selfishness that I like. If we can somehow find a way to sustain both him & Haaland in the side then you’ll probably need to stick him in your FPL!

You definitely pick ‘em. Feels like everything around the club is an absolute mess at the minute. A bit of stability would be nice.

Our spending over the last 5 years says different. Unless you’re in the “payments under the table crowd”. The reality is that our transfer policy has been highly effective for quite a while now.

I am pleased with the City window given the amount spent which is relatively modest at c£50m given the youngsters sold and various sell-on clause benefits we’ve had. Arguably replaced like for like with some additional depth in the middle to cover the dependency we have on Rodri to play all...

Who rates Palmer above Foden?

I think it’s an amazing price to get for Cole personally given what he has shown to date. He’s obviously got tons of potential and performed exceptionally well at U21 level, but the step up is huge and he’s been in and around the 1st team training for 2 years now and it’s fairly telling that in...

How is it lower. It’s gone from €50+€5m to €55m straight up and a good young player on the cheap. Wolves have some FFP challenges and City / Nunes have clearly taken advantage of that. I suspect it wasn’t until Mendes got involved that City expected Nunes to even be available.

Wow. £45M for Cole Palmer is an excellent sell by City. He’s always showed the promise of potential but he’s miles away from Foden and they’re only 2 years of age apart. I’ve never felt he’d have to ability to break through fully and it was always a shop window exercise to give him minutes in...

€55m seems like a good deal in the current market for a 24yo - can’t help but feel Pep will turn him into an excellent CM in our system. Between Rodri, Kovacic & Nunes we have great cover in that position now. This is the end for Phillips though.

Hope we keep you smiling! 9 & counting… :) stay with us.

I don’t like that behaviour. Didn’t like it when Mahrez did it either.

Yep all City’s fault! :)

Pep obviously loves him from his Sporting days. Hard to judge a player of his style in an awful Wolves side (similar to Kovacic in Chelsea). Personally I am quite pleased with this link if we can get it over the line. I think this would conclude our summer and leave us with the obvious problem...

It’s transfer muppet season.

Wouldn’t hate him at City now the Paqueta deal has fallen through, all in the aid of depth but I think he’d see quite a few minutes.
