I know. They should have made Fabinho or Bakayoko their priority. Instead, they have gone and signed another forward.How many attacking midfield/winger types do City need?

Sounds like they're next on the list after Mendy.I know. They should have made Fabinho or Bakayoko their priority. Instead, they have gone and signed another forward.
Yeah he's on another level to De Bruyne.Big statement, I would love for this to be true. So you think Griezy is better than KBH?
Another big statement... have you seen a lot of Griezmann? Because I would really like for this statement to be true and not media hyped.
They trying to buy the entire Monaco team or something. Anyway, think they will face a lot of competition for Fabinho/Bakayoko. At least won't be announced so soon if we are also in for any of them.Sounds like they're next on the list after Mendy.
City have been linked with Fabinho for a long time and there has been a lot of talk that it's his preferred destination this summer. Besides, having Silva and Mendy there with him will be a huge draw.They trying to buy the entire Monaco team or something. Anyway, think they will face a lot of competition for Fabinho/Bakayoko.

I hope this one doesn't turn out like David Silva did for City.
I think he'll be Silva's successor at City (Silva for Silva ). Hence the 5-year contract.Do city need him? They already have Silva, De Bruyne, Sterling and Sane. And Bernardo is very like Silva in playing style.
I wouldn't mind that (no kidding). Quality winger, set-piece taker who Mourinho trusts. If he remains a bench player at Chelsea it's quite probable we'll sign him.Doesn't matter we will sign Willian...
Plenty of fish in the sea, he is not Messi you know...People foaming at the mouth to sign him, he goes to city and now I'm told "get over it, we can't sign them all". Jokes.
He is an immense player, better then all our current attacking options
I believe its £43 but possibly rising to £61 ala the Martial deal. Monaco do this alot, just in case thinks go great and they can milk every penny from these deals.Is it 61m or 43m? BBC running stories that it's 43m. Not surprised they probably forget all the fee's and add on's they conveniently always put in with a United signing.
City also play a very attacking game similar to Monaco so it will be easier for Monaco players to fit into their team. Our style is much more conservative, so players from attacking teams could struggle if they move to us, so I am not that bothered about Silva or Mendy.City have been linked with Fabinho for a long time and there has been a lot of talk that it's his preferred destination this summer.

Ducker reckons it's a £43m flat fee. If he's right you have to hand it to City, top business.Is it 61m or 43m? BBC running stories that it's 43m. Not surprised they probably forget all the fee's and add on's they conveniently always put in with a United signing.
That cunning snake is here at city, who thinks he has the right for all the creative players for his philosophy and boy city spent huge again.Like United obviously Or any other bigger club such as Bayern.
It is going to be like when Chelsea were eliminated by Atletico and the next season 3 Atletico players were on Chelsea.They trying to buy the entire Monaco team or something. Anyway, think they will face a lot of competition for Fabinho/Bakayoko. At least won't be announced so soon if we are also in for any of them.
The problem is the game has evolved in europe with all the posession based teams, Silva will be a huge opportunity let down for us.City also play a very attacking game similar to Monaco so it will be easier for Monaco players to fit into their team. Our style is much more conservative, so players from attacking teams could struggle if they move to us, so I am not that bothered about Silva or Mendy.
But I really hope we are in for Fabinho as well. We need a DM who is good with the ball.
That's the difference. We (fans on an internet forum) were the ones foaming at the mouth to get him, but it only matters if Mourinho is doing the same. Also I don't think anyone is saying you can't express disappointment, it's the overly dramatic reactions that are being called out.People foaming at the mouth to sign him, he goes to city and now I'm told "get over it, we can't sign them all". Jokes.

Yes, unfortunately when I started cracking the results went south.You ungrateful prick. It's called strategic pessimism. @Red Katie is responsible for our unbeaten streak
Says he isn't messi, proceeds to say he will carry a team. We needed himPlenty of fish in the sea, he is not Messi you know...
We will regret this, at the latest when he runs rings around our players and will be Citys fulcrum to every attack. Pep has seen him live twice and couldnt resist buying him, even if he has enough offensive talent. He will build the team around him and make everyone better and Silva will be absolutely majestic
The Messi reference was a joke, caf reaction to posters who wanted him. The second part i stand by it.Says he isn't messi, proceeds to say he will carry a team. We needed him
There is nothing glamorus about joining Bayern compared to playing for Pep. United, Madrid and Barca are what I would call glamorus options.Like United obviously Or any other bigger club such as Bayern.
Very happy to hear that!! Lets sign him up then!!! Commercially he will do wonders too. Plus with Pogba they will both make United attractive for top players again.You can rest easy. Griezmann is on another level, compared to KDB.
Delighted!! Give him the number 7 now!!Yeah he's on another level to De Bruyne.
Hazard is the one player in the league on his level.
From the few times I've watched him he seems like a really tidy ball carrier who can operate in tight spaces. I can't think of anyone in our squad that has his abilities, Mkhi is probably the closest, but he's shown to be a bit sloppy with his possession this season. He basically looks like Mata if he was stronger and faster.I can see why people are disappointed, City are going for dynamic attacking players, we have the worst attack of the top 6 and our criteria for players seems to be height bar Griezmann.
You may want to take a nice long walk off a very short plank.Makes my blood boil seeing the level of players we field while City keeps stockpiling on top attacking talents like this. Ruined my weekend, can't even enjoy the cup win properly now.

What's bad is first heislinked with us, He's a portugese like mourinho and then pep pokes his nose.We will regret this, at the latest when he runs rings around our players and will be Citys fulcrum to every attack.

He's not alone.You may want to take a nice long walk off a very short plank.
You need to stop, you're now just spamming this thread spouting the same nonsense about Pep 'hijacking' our players. If that's really his transfer strategy then he won't get very far anyway seeing as him and Jose have vastly different styles of football.What's bad is first heislinked with us, He's a portugese like mourinho and then pep pokes his nose.
He is a good mix of Mata and David Silva with more pace and better dribbling, he's the type of player that excites fans, the type you watch a team as a neutral to see purely for the footballing enjoyment, Isco is similar IMO.From the few times I've watched him he seems like a really tidy ball carrier who can operate in tight spaces.

Mate, I'm disappointed to but I don't think we lost out on him, I don't think Jose was ever interested, big guys and workers are his type of players, a team of Willians and Valencias.What's bad is first heislinked with us, He's a portugese like mourinho and then pep pokes his nose.
Really? There must have been a whole season of quotes there (assuming each was of a different match day).Yes, unfortunately when I started cracking the results went south.

You need to get a hold of yourself mate, we didn't need Bernado Silva and its evident we didn't want him as much as City did. A striker, CB and defensive midfielder are all higher in priority than signing a player like him. Its bizarre you think the Portugese connection has anything to do with anything.What's bad is first heislinked with us, He's a portugese like mourinho and then pep pokes his nose.
