I genuinely think it makes zero business sense. The only advantage I can see is less international travel. Signing South Americans, Asian or African players sometimes means an availability issue crops up now and again. I'd live with it though for the likes of Son.

Barclays thoWhen did Neymar play in the Barclays? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And here we are looking at the potential for no change out a quarter of a billion for Harry Kane and Jack Grealish...... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandomGuy. Posted July 31, 2021 Share Posted July 31, 2021 Wild folk can see Grealish become the 6th most expensive player of all time, and think that's normal. Absolutely wild. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael W Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 Looks like trophy-dodger Kane has thrown the toys. If Man City genuinely are going to bid £100m for Grealish, it's hard to see how even Abu Dhabi FC are going to land Kane as well without some departures. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Man City genuinely are going to bid £100m for Grealish, it's hard to see how even Abu Dhabi FC are going to land Kane as well without some departures. I think Silva, Sterling, Jesus and maybe Mahrez have all been linked with moves away. If I had to guess, I'd say they won't get him as it seems dependent on departures. As much as it would be fun from a football perspective to see City get him, breaking the British record twice in one month is too much to look past. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DukDukGoose Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 I think all this "he shouldn't have signed a six year deal" is pretty harsh on Kane. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mizfit Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 I think all this "he shouldn't have signed a six year deal" is pretty harsh on Kane.Yes and no. To be guaranteed 6 years when he signed when everything was heading in the right direction at Spurs would’ve been brilliant. Since then. They’ve failed to win a trophy, dropped out the champions league, are pretty much shopping on the cheap and are directionless. It’s no wonder he’s wanting to jump ship especially if other clubs can guarantee him the trophy he craves.On the other hand, he should’ve put in a break clause asking it be reviewed if they fail to qualify for the CL etc. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

City would not offer Spurs Cancelo, Dias, De Bruyne, Rodri or Foden. Not sure about Stones or Laporte. IIRC Sterling and Bernardo Silva are reportedly available for transfer. Jesus is wanted by Italian clubs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron Aldo Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 Bernardo Silva is a brilliant wee player. Surprised City would be willing to let him leave.Is there any link between Silva and Nuno other than them both being Portuguese? Have they ever worked together before? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeeTillEhDeh Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 City are almost definitely going to offer Spurs whatever player they want plus cash for Kane.
