We are interested in Grealish, as are City. Mitten and Whitewell believe you don't go from chasing a player one summer to totally walking away from them next summer, so they think all this talk of us no longer being in for Sancho is BS.
We have previously kept an eye on DCL but don't believe him to be an elite level striker. Plus Everton wouldn't need to sell him on the cheap.
Thank you. Appreciate it.Not much really.
Sancho: They were in for him last year, can't imagine the interest is completely lost.
Grealish: Same agency as Shaw, Villa want 100M but he could move if he thinks he'll earn far more than he does at Villa. City also highly interested.
DCL: Speculation really, not as good as Haaland (obviously) but the kind of striker Solskjær is looking for. Great scorer of goals vs scorer of great goals thing but Everton are swimming in cash and with Ancelotti at hand, they have ambitions and don't need to sell.
According to wikipedia, he can play in the attacking position, as a box-to-box midfielder or even as a CDM.Isn't he another #10 type?
Only one signing for a substantial amount.Thank you. Appreciate it.
I saw a tweet that Andy Mitten said we would only sign one player. But I understand that’s probably out of context. Do you remember anything like that?
Yeah I think looking at our COVID hit finances that's the most realistic outcomeOnly one signing for a substantial amount.

When my mother died, I told my agent that I wanted to join Boca, I no longer want to play in Europe. Nobody gifted me anything, I'm happy with what I have, money makes you happy but not for long. I want to be close to my family, they need me. I'm dying to play for Boca, I will push to go there. My father while crying told me it was the right time. I always liked Boca, I don't know the Bombinera (sic), but it's something I want and I hope it happens.

Mitten thinks we'll only make one marquee signing this summer. The rest will depend on how many players we are able to sell and for how much.Thank you. Appreciate it.

He tends to get quite speculative, so I wouldn't rely on him. Sam Lee, however, is reliable for City and had this to say:Don't know how reliable he is for The Daily Fail

Real bargain? 2 anterior cruciate ligament injuries the last year or so, 1 on each leg I believe. His contract runs to 2024, so not sure why they'd be willing to let him go unless there's issues?Tweet

I reckon hes lining up a move for the end of next season, not this. If he wants a move to one of the big spanish clubs then this summer isnt realistic as theyve no money right now.How? They’re up to their eyeballs in debt aren’t they? Hopefully they sign him through some dodgy means and end up bankrupt.
Short sleeve shirt and gloves? Another Martial! Not convinced either.I’m not convinced by any CB who wears their socks like that.

John Terry wore his socks like that..I’m not convinced by any CB who wears their socks like that.
Rat faceThat might be a reoccurring one for the next three years though.
Have we ever signed a player from Madrid?
Sergio Ramos, Donnaruma, Alaba, Depay...Any good players free ?
Wilfred Bony.Any good players free ?
Why would it be ‘next year’ for players available on a free this summer?Tweet

Wilfred Bony.
I think Depay would be a a good option for us tbh, something a bit different and his game has definitely matured a lot more since he was last here.Sergio Ramos, Donnaruma, Alaba, Depay...
Contracts expire this year: Messi, Donnarumma, Alaba, Depay, Calhanoglu, Thauvin, Aguero, Draxler, Mkhitaryan, RamosTweet

We do need another wide option and I guess he'd also cover Bruno if Lingard and Van de Beek go.He's a more flexible #10. He can play off of the wide areas as he's a good dribbler, can operate the ball in tight spaces, and make good inside runs. However, he's been at his best through the middle where he can run into space and attack the back line with speed, especially on the counter. Out wide, he's a bit easier to close down as he typically cuts inside.
In that case I imagine he'd be seen as the Pogba replacement.Think he’s a hybrid type personally. Reminds me of Gerrard or Kevin. Great engine and size. Think he’d be best as an 8 in a 3 in the PL personally.
Some tasty playersContracts expire this year: Messi, Donnarumma, Alaba, Depay, Calhanoglu, Thauvin, Aguero, Draxler, Mkhitaryan, Ramos
Contracts expire next year: Mbappe, Neymar, Fati, Pedri, Varane, Goretzka, Camavinga, Dybala, Kessie, O. Dembele, Ronaldo, Insigne, Sabitzer, Belotti, Brozovic, Carvajal, Pellegrini, Sule, Gosens, Lacazette, Zakaria, Kamara, Onana, Romagnoli, Stones, Milenkovic, Benzema, Di Maria, Soumare, Ings, Bernardeschi, Grillitsch, Tolisso, Maignan, Forsberg, Trippier, Isco, Zagadou, Vestergaard
Bargains galore!

he can have whatever number he wants and if the current occupant has a problem with it sell them as it's more than likely Haaland is an upgrade on them anywayTweet

Pep's next mission is to eradicate the striker position altogether, then on to having 10 midfielders on the pitch.
Hes a crock with off field issues, has years left on his deal and they’re actively trying to sell him. So yeah he can replace Pogba, he’d fit right into the role, hell he might even take Jones role if we can move him out... ’If‘ he can get his head right and recover from his 2 ligament ops, then he’s potentially a great player. But on the other hand.....We do need another wide option and I guess he'd also cover Bruno if Lingard and Van de Beek go.
In that case I imagine he'd be seen as the Pogba replacement.
People sign to play under Pep because they buy into his footballing ethos, its attractive and successful. We offer bumper pay rise and a few million more Instagram followers because of our 'brand'.Pep for all his faults, will not allow a Raiola headache. I can't help but respect it.
