City and Barca are the 2 parties involved. Both masters of shady deals. Let's see how this pans out in terms of transfer fee.
I think Sancho is their Pogba moment, lost academy player for low fee and the player was class elsewhere.Hopefully this is their Pogba (except for him coming back)
Don't all these Barca kids do that, fabregas, pique, deulofeu and bellerin was on his way back there until they realized he was all hype.I meant why did he leave Barcelona then if it was his dream to play for them, unless he was released?
He’s only 19. There’s no way a 19 year old is getting regular playing time at CB. It’s too risky a strategy when they were chasing the league.I think any young CB at City must be wondering why they couldn't get a game last season given their injuries and the fact Pep would prefer playing a 35 year old Fernandinho out of position rather than giving them a try?

All? You named four, two of which who didnt go back, and one who went back but was hardly a success. Only Pique from that list made it. Hardly a great viewing for Garcia.Don't all these Barca kids do that, fabregas, pique, deulofeu and bellerin was on his way back there until they realized he was all hype.
Point takenSancho is their Pogba.
3 went back my point is they leave and when Barca come calling they run back. With bellerin everyone knew he was pushing for a move, it was no secret, it fell through but it still fits with the others. Its hardly a long list because not every academy kid that leaves became a success but this is in a period of 14 years. We don't know how Onana, Icardi and Thiago would react if Barca come calling.All? You named four, two of which who didnt go back, and one who went back but was hardly a success.

£30m isn't a ridiculous fee. He's not a bad player. He's contracted for another 2 years. It's probably less than what City would have to pay to buy him.Don't think they will get 30 million for him.
