Centre-back search

[tomasjj]

I am glad it isn't us.

 

[Farkmaster]

I'm carefully considering options for a brownstone in the east village at a price that makes sense for my budget. It's just such a tough market, I haven't been able to find anything yet, but I'm sure to keep looking.

"Observing"..."Monitoring"..."Following" *Inserts clown emoji

In other words, it's Romano saying, "I've got as much Intel as Jacque Talbot, so I'll state the obvious"

 

[bluebell]

The transfer window closes at the 1st of Sep, more the 3 weeks. We don't need a top CB, we just need a good one like Costello Lukeba

 

[Fabio]

TBF even if the club did find a top level young cb; we wouldn't fucking buy him. We'd just flutter our eyelashes for 2 years while we slide in to mediocrity

And wait till some other team in the prem buys him 1st and then sign him in 2 years for £70m and then break him.

[Cerberus]

Nico really could Schlotter into our beck four.

 

[StevieM]

Koch would be the one to stick behind Lavia.

 

[Hansern]

Should have signed him then..

Fuck me, that looks like a job ad dont it ?, sort of think you see in a kebab shop where it says "staff wanted, need to know how to work the kebab machine"

 

[Hansern]

If this is true, then please go and sign Lukeba from Lyon.

 

[Buddha]

If this is true, then please go and sign Lukeba from Lyon.

Or swoop for Geertruida given he’s Dutch and can be mentored by Virgil…

 

[Fabio]

No, there isn't a young CB in the world we can go and get, so we may as well close the thread.

 

[binomial]

We're gonna regret not going for Zeno Debast.

I heard we're about halfway to signing him but dont think it's possible for us to seal the deal.

Maybe by 2027 once we’ve pulled our fingers out our arses.

 

[StevieM]

Monitoring takes time.

As does contemplation.

 

[LarryHagman]

That's the crazy thing... City don't even really need Gvardiol.

Gvardiol, Stones, Ake, Akanji, Dias, Laporte, Walker.

Who plays full back apart from Walker? Ake?

 

[rurikbird]

Gvardiol, Stones, Ake, Akanji, Dias, Laporte, Walker.

Who plays full back apart from Walker? Ake?

City don’t play with full-backs anymore. All defenders are centre-backs, such is the latest trend of Guardiola-ball.

 

[StevieM]

City don’t play with full-backs anymore. All defenders are centre-backs, such is the latest trend of Guardiola-ball.

Also City’s spending on defence has always been secondary only to the USA.

 

[Zlate]

Monitoring takes time.

As does contemplation.

Where does considering come into play?

 

[StevieM]

Where does considering come into play?

Before and after contemplation.

Another subtle one slipping past the intelligentsia on SCM...

Is the next step then to turn on the fax machine, or to fire up solitaire on the PC for a well earned rest?

Ahahaha we're stuck at half way then.

 

[tomasjj]

We can only hope the process for a center back will be smoother than for Lavia.
I don't expect it though.

 

[Hansern]

Or swoop for Geertruida given he’s Dutch and can be mentored by Virgil…

He's right footed though. A signing like Lukeba or Pavlovic would be perfect for the LCB role.

 

[King Binny]

Todibo is available for 30 mill €. Not left footed but a quality CB and still only 23.
Juve were after him but have dropped out given the terms set.

Looks like Man Utd are after him

Smoother than Lavia, you say?
