I would have thought the Chavs were rejected because they have about 15 #10's...They do have European football. It may have been a consideration given that Chelsea and Spurs were rejected.

It's a dry loan. Fati will give them depth for Europe so it's a good move.There was absolutely no point in going for Fati if we couldn't add an option to buy him. Brighton apparently doesn't have it.

with no buy option it’s a shit deal. Brighton can have him, it’s a sticky plaster at best
If Hojbjerg is gone I wouldn't mind Gallagher or even Kalvin Phillips.
But they're "ITK"What does Fab know?
Hercules and WLB claim otherwise over at SC.
The thread over there is absolutely fucking hilarious.
I’m not sure how anyone can read it and not see that they’re absolute charlatans.
Could've been an ok stop gap for a year. But as you said I'm not going to lose my shit over a loan without obligation.Not fussed about Fati in the least. Why the fuck should we pay a guys wages on a straight loan? Are we barcas’s development squad?
Yeah support ChelseaIf you want to support a well run club, look elsewhere.
We always like to be on Sky's transfer deadline day !!
RubbishIf Romero or Bissouma get injured Davinson and Pierre have to play.
The main issues vs Fulham were caused by those 2.
Someone talking sense for once without crying on here .I don't believe it was one or the either, either.
I think Barcelona likely offered Fati out to a number of clubs, we were interested but probably weren't happy with the fact there was no obligation and they wanted us to pay 200k a week so walked away. I assume the Spanish reporters probably heard an English club were close and put 2 and 2 together and it turned out to be Brighton and not us.
But I don't believe if we got Fati in that it would have affected Johnson at all - Fati was a potential opportunistic grab. Johnson is an actual target.
Yeah but he's gone and certain shit players are still shit.imo conte always thought he was doing us a favour. Once he was under pressure a bit he looked for excuses. Then blew his stack at Southampton wanting to be fired.
Cole Palmer has 19 appearances, of which I assume many are as sub.Shame we didn't go for Palmer, would have been a good fit for us long term. More ability on the ball than Johnson and I think Ange could have persuaded him to come to us over Chelsea given that game time has been his biggest gripe at City.
Why is Pep so happy to let him go?I’d take this kid for 40 over Johnson for 50. He’s still green obviously but I think the potential upside is much higher.
