I would be gutted to lose any of our top players and although I agree with the view if we were to lose one of rather it be Walker im still gutted and a bit disappointed in Walker and in Spurs.

Ah I see. There was more than a hint of humour in my comment.
Drunk foolSee your rope a dope mateChucklevision is right up your corzee:
The transfer fee has been asked not be disclosed either see if that pans out!
Theyve spent enough to have bought Lennon or McCartney, and got Ringo instead. Can we get a better drummer for less than £50m? Or have we got good enough ones at WHL already?
It is sad to see Kyle go and I wish him all the best.
Having said that...
:eriksenlol: Man citeh are paying £55 million for our reserve RB.
Reserve RB wasn't the case. Walker is a better RB option currently, but Trippier's development definitely drove Walker's sale.
Sell a first teamer and replace with a bench player (Barkley £40m?)... + Strengthen City?
No way we were actively looking to sell KW before he had his head turned.
Dissapointing to say the least.
...To think I've seen this described as a win/win.
You watch, they'll pay the same for Mendy and £50m suddenly won't feel 'premium' at all.
This is the only thing that will disappoint me; if we spent the majority of this great fee on Barkley then it will undermine a good sale. I really don't rate Barkley now. He had potential but he hasn't progressed in my view. I could be wrong of course, but that rarely happens, frankly. I hope we sign someone good with the money as that will make it all a good move.
can you imagine the reaction if we come out of this window 50 mil ahead
I don't like this.
You can argue it is good money, and it is, but it is weakening us and strengthening a rival.
Without him City basically have nobody in their squad who can play right back/wing back.

They'll pay much the same for Mendy or another LB from Europe = No 'premium' on KW.

Shouldn't be selling our best players to a rival in mine
Great, selling our players to a rival club. 50 million which had better be spent on allowing Poch to get in who he thinks will strengthen us.
As for walker, thanks for the memories and I hope you are a massive failure at man city and please don't issue the usual hollow crap thanking the fans for your time here and so on, just fuck off

Fact is: No one knows how this will pan out. Go back and look at the posts bemoaning getting Poch in over Van Gaal for proof. Or Bale not starting a winning game for 2 years.
Walker may be a flop at City, we may sign someone even better. Trippier may have the season of his life next year.
Or it may all go fucking pear shaped.
That is the beauty of football.
Calculated Risks.
I'm willing to take the gamble that the amount of points that City will gain as a direct result of having Walker in their side will be less than the amount we lose for not having him. If that makes sense.

Correct, so clearly Pochettino does not see him in that bracket any longer.
My concern is the drift in perception it causes but if we now reinvest quickly and use the money wisely it could work out favourably.
Walker won us few games and is not a leader. Let that baby Guardiola have him.
And Dier. And Wanyama. And Lamela (if he's still alive).
