Summer 2021 transfer window

Bernardo Silva wants to leave City. Is Mendes his agent?

Think that's a good signing personally if it happens.

 

[Elephant Pyjamas]

It's decent value, that's for sure.

 

[YoungWolf]

Not sure what I'd make of that one. Good ball winner, good aerially but not so strong with the ball. I guess next to Neves/Moutinho might help.

For that fee you'd expect to be a squad member, which is not really what we wanted in that position at the start of the summer... I guess I won't mind as much if it allows us to focus on a good centre back signing

 

[Deano]

If the Dendoncker rumour is true then I wouldn't mind selling him for 20m or so and getting Yokuslu in to replace him. Probably have a similar quality player plus about 15m cash to go towards other areas.

As a player on his own merit it's not too exciting but he does the job he's there for.

 

[Elephant Pyjamas]

What Dendoncker rumour?

 

[Tony Towner]

He's the type of player we need to enable those further forward to do their job and will help those behind. It's not exciting, but if we are going to embrace the Bruno way then we need the players that will make it work

 

[Tony Towner]

What Dendoncker rumour?

Roma, although nothing overly credible. Usual SportWitness stuff

roma i think?

 

[Elephant Pyjamas]

Ok, well I'd be loathed to sell another midfielder even if we had one come in, we just don't have enough senior midfielders as it is.

 

[Del Woppio]

I'm happy enough with Yokuslu at that sort of money tbh. We've only got three central midfielders, and none are as strong as him as a ball winner. I know I'm in a minority on thinking Dendonker is shit, but I'd rather have Yok shielding Neves than anybody else on our books tbh

 

[Elephant Pyjamas]

I know I'm in a minority on thinking Dendonker is shit,

Are you!?? He's always getting stick isn't he?

 

[WolfMan]

I'd imagine his role wouldn't be more than: get the ball, give it to Neves/Moutinho

 

[WolfMan]

I like Dendonker but not when he's being told to try and do his best Frank Lampard impression. Think as a holding midfielder he'd be ok.

 

[AndyWolves]

If Yokuslu means Neves can play 10 yards further forward and not fill in at fullback so much then he's worth every penny.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

6'3'' as well, would help us defend set pieces.

Think it was the Brighton home game last season where we barely had anyone on the pitch who could compete aerially at all. Kilman is tall but shite in the air, everyone else was just ridiculously outmatched for size.

 

[Del Woppio]

Are you!?? He's always getting stick isn't he?

Ah, maybe people are coming round!

 

[Johnny75]

The type of bang average signing Dave Jones would make.

Hopefully Watford steal a march on us and sign him.

We've gone from signing Neves and Moutinho to relegated cloggers like this.

The club is in a terrible state at the moment.
