Man City does not operate with a "strict" starting XI, so going by your logic then neither Walker, Stones, Grealish or Foden are good enough for England either as none of them are guaranteed starters.

L’Équipe report today that Bayer Leverkusen would not be looking to let go of in-form French winger Moussa Diaby for less than €100m, should he leave this coming summer.
The striker radar is once again seemingly not working.
It would make any transfer window a lesser success if we go into another season with Son and Kane alone as recognised goal scorers.

Can only try if you don’t ask?
You don’t have to spend £60m for top players. Kulu? Diaz? Jota? I’m far from convinced Richarlison or Raphinia are worthy of that level of fee
God no. Why would we want Woolwich to sack that incompetent hair gel poster boy?
We’ve bought well recently so not every future deal has to be amazing value for money. If we have to overpay for a good player, do it - the fees paid for Bissouma, Kulu and Benta and the increase in value offset 60M either of those two
I would like us to sign him but I don’t think we will - hopeful we pivot to a RWB levels above. Ideally James (<2 years on deal) or Hakimi (unhappy at the PSG circus and Conte heritage).
I would love Hakimi too, not sure I believe those unhappy rumours though. Reece will be interesting to see what happens re his renewal.
Ultimately I think we will end up with Spence and I’m kinda excited to see how he and Sess develop under Conte.
Yeah Spence has plenty of potential, as does Sessegnon
Hakimi or James would elevate us to potential title winners. Chelsea have to sell surely if he won’t sign, and the new fella won’t care about the Spurs / Levy redline that Roman had. Hugely unlikely but you gotta aim high. If Hakimi was 75M and it meant no other signings this summer, I would be ok with that
Still think a LCB has to be a priority along with RWB. Davies improved alot last season, however, if he does get injured we are kinda fucked.
I do agree that the new Chelsea owner will likely not be adverse to dealing with us, and would be very interesting to see what happens with Reece. Besides United, where else would he go in UK? City and Liverpool and sorted in that position.
Absolutely brilliant post, sir. If we could have a post of the month award this would get my vote
This is the kind of signing I don’t understand why we don’t just pay the money and get him. Apparently Boro want 15 million for the guy, that is quite literally pennies for a Champions League PL club now. Why don’t we just pay it if the manager wants him?Everythings good, no massive rush
We have previous for doing this with Championship players too. Sessengnon and Grealish spring to mind.
We could have got Sessengnon for much cheaper than the eventual 30 million we had to pay for him and we could have got Grealish for a very decent price too if we had just stopped dithering.
Well that kind of answers the question that was put to me then and backs up my original point that Phillips signing for City is good news for England
A top team has 2 good players per position that the manager trusts.
GK - Lloris, Forster - check
CB’s - Romero, Davies, Dier, Sanchez, Tanganga, Rodon - need 2 CB’s
Wings backs - Perisic, Sessegnon, Regulion, Royal, Doherty - need 1 WB (assume Spence)
Midfield - Skipp, Bissouma, Hojbjerg, Bentancur, Winks, Sarr - need maybe one more if Winks is off and Sarr is loaned.
Attack - Kane, Son, Kulusevski, Lucas, Berg - need 2 more assuming Lucas and Berg aren’t trusted.
That’s about 6 players more needed for Conte to have a squad that would be considered a top team IMO. Spence is coming, we have been linked with getting a striker and 2 CB’s so not far off.
