Will probably end up at City knowing them.
This time maybe not. They just got Doku and brought Savinho over from Girona.
The threat will be woolwich or liverpool but the dippers have a bunch of forwards they would need to shift. Unless they take the Salah money from Saudi and go all in on Williams.
In theory, it could be us vs woolwich and they have FFP issues of their own. If we went early and really hard, we might have a chance.
I would do this regardless.
Will have enough more critical signings - backup keeper, Fullbacks, potentially a 6, Winger/Forward(s) - that we don’t need to focus on CB.
Moreover between Phillips, Dorrington and the incoming Vusckovic we will need to have some pathway to the first team for at least 1 of the 3. Otherwise what’s the point.
Starks is it because he's as one footed as Lamela great finish but why?
Some fans after Villa: "Micky who? We've found the new Nesta and he's from Romania."
The same crowd after Fulham: "Get rid of that Dragusin, he's shitter than Fazio."
Yeah he was poor in that game, missed a glorious chance to equalise. But to be honest, Bologna as a whole were useless that day. Never even tried to lay a glove on Inter. The lad had no service and on the occasions he won the ball back, his mates offered no support.
It's more his lack of pace that worries me. Some on here are calling him very fast...guess they've never seen him play.
Unreal tekkers
Pretty sure it is true. Doku isn’t the same as Grealish, and I guarantee you right now if Grealish is fit for their bigger games later in the season, he plays. City fans have been screaming for it because of how lax Doku is at ball retention and defensively.
This season Grealish hasn’t played well. He’s had injuries and he came back not fit. Pep understandably not happy with him but if he was playing to last seasons level he’d be in that lineup ahead of the blind alleys merchant every week.
“Football is more than stats, it’s many things. The way he gives us the tempo to play and to make extra passes.
“I could not imagine with the big name he is and the price the club paid to have this humility to run like a teenager.
- Pep on Grealish.
Jack Grealish is Manchester City's most valuable player this season - here's why
In his second season at Manchester City, Jack Grealish has become one of Pep Guardiola's most trusted lieutenants on the pitch

That was over a year ago. I agree he won’t trust Doku but not sure Grealish will be the one he picks eitherPretty sure it is true.

Right now? Probably not. Grealish is injured and has been for months..
If he can get back to where he was last season it wouldn’t even be a debate. He’s been all over the place since over-celebrating the treble win.
Yeah, WANKHORN’s quite expensive per letter.
Yeah fair. Big if, my bet is he doesn’t play much of a part and his career drifts
I agree.Considering how well Bologna are doing this season,I thought they were piss poor.
He definitely did not look quick.
He’s obviously had a very good season in Italy.
But a bit sceptical as to whether he could cut it in the prem.
Good player already, plenty potential and think he'll defo make it in the PL someday. But is he ready to start for a top 4 contender next season? I don't see it.
And that lack of pace, I just don't see him at Spurs under Ange. That said, put two proper quality wingers either side of him and a top notch CM trident behind him...that's another story. But then again we're a few of those short to begin with.
Plus we already have richarlison who isn’t blessed with pace either.
Any expert insight into Soule?
On TFC??
I've watched him a few times. Defo an interesting player and I don't think many expected him to be at this level, especially playing for a small side like Frosinone.
Though he plays on the right wing, he's left-footed and, very much like Kulusevski, 9 times out of 10 you'll see him cut inside. He also often drops deep to come get the ball or drifts centrally to play as a 10.
He's a pretty good dribbler, but that said he ain't lightning fast, he mainly goes past defenders through feints and using his body well.
Good passer too, but still plenty room for improvement. He tries too hard sometimes, doesn't keep it simple. His first touch can be a bit Sonny-like too.
So yeah overall, defo a kid worth keeping an eye on, but not somebody I'd spend a fortune on after one good season on loan in Serie A and expect him to be a starter at Spurs. No way.
