Wouldn’t be surprised but prefer if we bought a passing number 10 like Maddison, guy from Leicester is a more play making 10, he would make more sense. Paz seems the big one but doubt we will pay that price.

That’s all fine but this stupid club is participating in a cup final in 4 days.. and it’s completely under prepared for what’s to come
Once you have supported this club for more than the duration of a calendar month you will be attuned to our lack of preparedness.
Oscar Bobb is the bigger talent but he had a really bad injury last season. From City he is the one most like to have a Palmer type break out. I would love to try and grab him.
You answered that perfectly, IMO. Well played.
Yes, we should support the team, even when we're unhappy with the ownership. It's not their fault, regardless of ability or inability, that they take to the field to represent us. And I do think some of us are OTT in our criticism of individual players; I mean, Johnson didn't ask us to sign him up. He's the easy target for us to take our frustrations out on but someone else offered him a contract as a first team player.
I actually think he'll be key this season; a tap-in merchant who can put away Porro's crosses. The problem is, it will be too easy to defend if that's our only option.
And that is where we should direct frustrations - those in charge who are leaving us with a lack of options.
We need stars, particularly in attack as they attract new supporters; and they also draw defenders, which creates space for other, lesser players, making them look good. Star players cost money in terms of transfer fees and wages though.

As I said yesterday. Double deal less than ideal but him and Grealish would settle a few problems. Not at that price though whatsever.
They probably wouldn't but they might also need to generate money to buy elsewhere.
Would take Grealish on loan plus McAtee as we are desperate now.
We have no LW and no 10.

Oh I think that's neanderthal.
Tittle tattle,, but I would rather 'had a bid rejected' at this stage..
Signings to win the prem and CL I believe.
Being serious though they would be resonable.
That’s Oscar Bobb if he can recover from his injuries but I’d be shocked if City sell him.
Have you watched enough of him?
I haven't.
But a lot will have decided on very limited evidence I suspect.
I won't break out the party poppers until we're 'considering'.
Grealish yes,because it wouod be a year and you would think he wants to prove a point and force his way into England's world cup squad.
Grealish would also encourage one or two others to join..... I think.
Put it this way, he is by far the most commercially sensible as well as his ability.
Whether this suits Frank or is something that Levy will sanction who knows, but Grealish can be in no doubt Guardiola wants him gone.
40 mil is a bit steep for McAtee but, unlike some others, I was always impressed with him when I watched Sheffield. Didn’t hardly play last year so no clue what he looks like nowadays tbf.
He’s got zero athletic gifts to speak of and can’t run a game from the centre of midfield. He is basically my worst fears for what Mikey Moore may become, a soft, tentative player who is neither attacking midfielder or winger.
Both him and Elliott are getting touted around as they’re free PSR money but if they were actually good enough for our ambitions their parent clubs would want to keep them.
