Thought he's more similar to someone like Isco (or Nasri before) than Sancho.
Not such a big offer it seemsTorres is one of the only ones who wont be available unless theres a big offer
He's one of the few they can build the new squad around
Final year of contractIsn't he meant to be quite good? Why so cheap?
He is good, but not better than Sane yet. Still, Pep knows his attackers and midfielders, and his style usually is very helpful for attackers. The chance of this failing is low, and even if it does they are not paying much anyway.Is he any good? Better than Sane?

No, but in fairness few are as good as Sane, he was one of the best wingers in the league for a few seasons.Is he any good? Better than Sane?
Bit random but Jesus Navas was apparently one of the best RB in Spain last season.His stats for last season are underwhelming. Let’s hope he’s more Jesus Navas than Jesus of Nazereth.
Can't really go wrong for that price though, especially when you're as rich as Man City.Hes probably been signed as a squad player anyway. Mahrez, Sterling and B.Silva no doubt will be ahead of him in the pecking order.
Can't say I have seen much of him. Seems to be highly rated though. His stats aren't exactly breathtaking though. I know you can't base it all on stats but still.
To be honest, I can see Bernardo go this summer. Would be a bit of a surprise but there are rumours about Pep targeting someone who can play as a false 9 so him or Jesus would have to make space, I guess.Hes probably been signed as a squad player anyway. Mahrez, Sterling and B.Silva no doubt will be ahead of him in the pecking order.

Got 1 year left on his contract.Some rumours of a 20.9 million euro fee initially which seems crazy to me.
There's a slight difference in valuation from different journalists, but they're all around 20-25 million Euros + 10-15 million Euros in bonuses.Some rumours of a 20.9 million euro fee initially which seems crazy to me.

Valencia are desperate to sell players, and Ferran was very keen on playing under Pep. Even if other teams wanted him (e.g. Dortmund, Bayern, United, etc.), City were always going to be favourites.That was easy. Barely know what that's like being a United fan!
He's 20, has an eye for a pass to put a player in behind and has some skill and composure to finish himself. But he's only played for 1 season and 4 goals and 5 assists in 26 starts is good for his stage of his career but not exactly a signing like Fernandes, or Sancho, or Sane.So he’s abit like Joaquin? Decent winger without really being outstanding? But i understand Joaquin can be very good on his day

£20-25 million up front will be a very good fee if true
Think he'll do a fair bit better than James of this season. But Sane is a lot betterSpanish Dan James
Thanks mate ..... really appreciate itRight now I dont think he is. But Grealish doesnt play on the right wing. Long term maybe
Edit - I'm watching plenty of Valencia again and for me Torres isnt as good as Chiesa yet. But he's younger and perhaps more potential, he has less end product. He's also not as good as Grealish. So Torres is more likely a player you might sign this window but might not look like a great signing for another year or two. Chiesa and Grealish are players who might more likely hit the ground running and perform right away
Without knowing anything about the lad I'm assuming he's one for squad depth with Sterling and Mahrez to still be their starting wingersThink he'll do a fair bit better than James of this season. But Sane is a lot better
Dan James is not worthy to lace this guy's booths. James is a one-trick pony... find space, run..... if no space to run, then around for the ball. This guy can actually get himself out of tight spaces and create chances. Not sure where you got the Spanish Dan James tag from.Spanish Dan James

The rest will be paid in camels and oil.Isn't he meant to be quite good? Why so cheap?
