    Dejan Kulusevski

    I've been thinking about the man that is Kulu and i'll say straight away I have in the preferred him centrally as I think that suits his attributes best and I think we've seen him at his most influential there. The 2nd Ange season was all about Kulu until the injury. So with that in mind if we...

    Pre Season Thread

    The rumours were that they will be ready for the start of the season which I guess means that they might not really make this stage of pre season but will be roughly available by the real kick off time.

    I don't know if in supposed to take this seriously? Hojberg always had a pass on him. We saw that here. I asked for a player didn't demonstrate passing ability and then became a passer, Hojberg clearly isn't that. Demebele was never a passer. His passing was entirely basic and even with...

    Kevin De Bruyne could always pass. I'd love you to share some examples of players who couldn't and learnt over the course of their careers.

    You can't teach really passing though, you either have that ability or not, especially not at 20 years old. You would have to hope he can already do it, but has just not felt able to express that ability. Otherwise it's not something he's likely to be able to add at this stage.

    Transfer thread

    I don't know if I agree he's better than them tbh. He doesn't really stand out to me but then I am biased towards passing midfielders, non passers are a bit of a muchness for me. Their other qualities need to really be exceptional and I don't see that with Bergvall. As an allrounder I think Sarr...

    He's not that good a backup, both are passers and he isn't but I agree with moving Bentancur on if possible and replacing with a durable player of the same type who is a bit better with the ball. Could be journey man type.

    There is hoping for the best but theres also being honest with yourself about what your eyes have actually seen.

    No, look at this way we are allowed a maximum of 17 non HG players. If you want to have more than a 17 man squad then the rest must be a mixture of club and association trained. We are not penalised beyond not having more than 17 players if we don't hit the quotas.

    We don't have to have 4 club trained, it's just to get the full complement of a 25 man squad 8 must be homegrown and 4 of those club trained. If we only have 7 for example we can only name a 24 man squad, if we only have 6 then we can only name a 23 man squad and so on and so on.

    Put it this way, would you sign Richy? We are going to have to make a move for him very attractive probably both for the buying club and to Richy.

    The Centre Forward thread

    We were totally devoid of any creativity in that period. Never really understand the people who cry for AVB to this day.

    The Centre Forward thread

    Soldadao was always miss profiled by us. He was mainly a finisher but one that took a number of chances to score, he was never a cold blooded finisher. He was the same at Valencia they just created a hell of a lot more than we did at the time.

    The Centre Forward thread

    I honestly don't rate him. He's either the best brick striker in the world or the worst good striker. I was actually shocked he didn't miss that chance. 🤣

    The Centre Forward thread

    My mind has gone blank but who is Martinez? Ferran Torres I think would disappoint you, he's not an out and out striker. He's more of a versatile forward.

    Savinho

    I'd also happily get a Nusa or Williams. Maybe even Rayan.

    Savinho

    I agree about the price, it's a huge amount to pay for someone coming off a bad season. Would I pay it for Girona Savio? Yes. For City Savio? No. So I guess it comes down to how strongly we believe that we can get the earlier performances out of him.

    Pedro Neto

    Flexible, can play both sides but if people have concerns about the effectiveness of some of the other wise players we have looked at, he's quite similar.

    Savinho

    The question is less about what City think but can we get the Girona level of performance out of him and why was he unable to match that quality? Is it the change in leagues, is it the change of position from left to mainly right, is it the lack of emphasis on him (at Girona he was the key...

    Savinho

    His preference is Barcelona so most teams don't see the point. Maybe with the additions they have made there is less space for him so maybe there is the chance for someone else.
