I really hope Frank is making his point about that need for additional players before the window closes

Absolutely not. Moore is an insane talent, but he needs game time. He wasn't going to get it here. Same with Jamie Donley.
We play 50-ish games this season, and in terms of needing lock-picking creativity in possession to win, the three we've played so far are probably all in the bottom 5
He isn't ready. We didn't.
So the consensus seems to be we still need players in. Who?
Savinho seems to be the only one sticking around after last week, but was looking unlikely even then. And if he can’t get in the City side ahead of fancy feet Doku (injured he may be, but I doubt it), I’m certainly not convinced he’s worth £70m.
So who we getting in? I’m going to keep banging my Asensio drum. I like the look of Hackney from Boro. Akliouche any good?

Someone here said something about some controversy around him? Haven't seen any mention of that anywhere else. Cracking player, fits exactly what we need and he is available, I totally agree.
We absolutely must add a central creator.
I think the safer bet would be savinho and maybe kang in lee.
Paz seems like a tough deal to do BUT I think its in the best interest of como to sell this summer before Madrid use there cheap buy back next summer.
Apparently have scouts at Ranheim vs Stabæk in the Norwegian 2nd tier today
The same as before this match. No change.
In week 2, through little fault of his own, Frank is already facing the danger of running players to the ground. Sarr, among others, spent an insane amount of energy today.
Considering how integral pressing is to Frank's overall gameplan, we cannot afford to have tired legs doing the bare minimum out there. Players like Palhinha and Kudus have no replacement already, and this'll only get worse as season progresses.

Need Savinho and a creative 10 for this season.
Never will happen, but just imagine next season we bring back Kane and sign Wharton on top of what we have. That would be a title challenging squad.

Bring me Akliouche or Paz. Preference Paz tbh. Still think we need cover for LCB as well
This is a direct quote from a City fan on Bluemoon
"Other chairman get stick for talking big and then going out and spending peanuts on players nobody’s fucking heard of so let’s have at khaldoon
Where’s the fucking money Khaldoon, record revenues, one of the leading sports brands (eurgh) in the world and yet we won’t spend big"

Go and get Paqueta, Savinho and whatever defender Frank wants and let’s get on with this season
Not sure if we will be able to make this deal.. PSG is called a prison for a reason.. :/
He's not ready, but is more use than Tel, for sure.
Should have been the other way round.
Fucking hell, they turned West Ham of the north into CL and Prem winners whilst spending billions and they aren’t happyThis is a direct quote from a City fan on Bluemoon

Fuck me
Controversy is a different guy. Marco Asensio is the PSG guy I like. Raul Asencio plays for Real Madrid and is the dodgy character.
God forbid we go anywhere near Paqueta.
