Mikky

Spooky how his brother also had to come off with a hamstring injury on the same day

Both entering last year - get them for 70 I say

He’s the Man City Chairman but pretty high up in the chain - UAE version of Wor Yassir - manages various mega projects

I think we will go the way of Kone/Alvarez at around 40m - I would take that tbh Alvarez offers you CB cover too - neat and tidy on the ball too

Rafael Leao left on bench again - contract soon to enter final 12 - throw Maxi in the mix and do a deal

Robotman sorry

Would love to see a flag dedicated to Nick Pope - have a big picture of him with the words “Neek Pope” at the bottom And one for Botman in a terminator there with RoBotmam as he displays no emotion at times

That would be incredible - I would take that all day long

Leao will be entering his final year after the summer Lacroix - Kone - Maddison - Leao are unreal signings By all means we can go higher and get the likes of Rice/Bellingham but I don’t know if we are at that spend level

My wish list is LB - Antonee Robinson (can’t think of anyone) CB - Maxence Lacroix - as your Lascelles replacement DM - either Edson Alvarez or Manu Kone - just, if needed, we can move Bruno around tactically AM - Maddison - no one else LW/RW/FWD - Marcus Thuram / Joao Pedro / Rafael Leao (cough cough) ideally would like another centre mid if I am being greedy - a punt on Tielemens on a free or Onana if Everton go down

Laimer is Bayern bound

Could barely make the team photo no way he is in the squad for the weekend

Seems like Rafael Leao contract talks have reached an impasse - would love to use ASM as bait to try and lure him in the summer

Very slow - he is one of those who has won it all and seems to lack the hunger - plus his ability to last 90 mins is questionable

No he as slow as anything these days

Houssem Aouar would have been a decent signing - I reckon Eddie could have got a tune out of him - even as a short term stop gap

This should be our negotiating strategy for Gallagher

I think something will happen around Franca

unless you sign a Rodri type of midfielder then you can’t move Bruno - plus having Big Joe to the left of him (eventually) covers a lot of defensive space for Bruno

Given where Sociedad are in the league (3rd) - no chance on Mikky Merino or Zubermendi (who is the better option)

The fact that Mudryk went for 80m plus suggest clubs will still commend a fee should they sell outright? it’s unfair otherwise

Ounahi to Marseilles for £7m is a fantastic deal

I’m sure we were linked with this guy in the summer

Sorry what I meant was our XI as stated vs Soton plus who is left - goes without saying Isak is our future
