Dortmund denies. They can't afford to lose Hummels, Gündogan, probably Mkhitaryan plus Aubameyang. He's under contract until 2020.
I think it's given that Bony is gone, he always looks disinterested. Iheanacho is a serious talent though, I doubt man city let's their one successful youth product to leave.
Bony is ****e. Plus he's more of a CF which Pep has no use for. City really needs to add another CB to pair with Otamendi as Mangala isn't consistent enough and Kompany is always injured. Aymeric Laporte has been rumored.
I'm wondering about that too. He apparently is a good one on one defender, a bit rash, but very athletic. That's all I know so far. I doubt he'll be first choice by the time season starts.
To be fair he might be. His competition is Jones, Rojo, and Blind. Not like he has to beat out anything special. Wouldn't be surprised if United still signed another defender because of that. They definitely still need a right back I would think.
Moes and ChrisBosh already said it. I'm 100% sure it's not an either or situation for City w/regard to the two players you mentioned. The writing was on the wall for Bony last season. He made his money and won a medal(iirc), he's on his way out. Kelechi is one of the brightest young talents in world football and after the battle City fought to get him and how he's played in just about every game since he came on board, there's no way he's going anywhere.
Yeah, saw him with CIV at the last AFCON and saw some of Villareal this past season. Decent defender, great physical and 1 on 1 skills. Still has a ways to go to be a top defender. Personally i thought Djilobodji was a better defender overall from what I saw of both but Mourinho has his reasons. Especially seeing as Mourinho chose not to use Djilobodji at all and the player went to Germany and acquitted himself well on loan there over the last few months. I'd be surprised if Mourinho doesn't spring for another more experienced CB to give Smalling, Jones, (hopefully no more Blind) and Bailly competition.
He is one of those guys signed for the future. He is similar to Fosu Mensah but I'd still rate Fosu Mensah higher with bigger potential
Different positions tho. I like TFMs versatility(especially when compared to a tosspot like Blind) but I rate Bailly higher, at CB-Bailly's position.
Holy ****! Spain's keeper De Gea has been sent home for apparentely being involved in an underage rape case. Isco and Munian accused, too.
Question for my German brehs. Mkhitaryan. Opinions or info regarding him trying to leave BVB for Man United? Or is it that Raiola up to his old tricks again?
Think he'll leave this year if Dortmund finds a good replacement. Otherwise he'll join you guys next year. It's basically the Lewandowski situation from two years ago, with Watzke breaking a promise and desperately trying to keep a player that wants to leave.
starting to look like Everton might be able to hold on to Lukaku http://www.espnfc.us/story/2898666/barcelona-real-madrid-psg-among-few-to-afford-romelu-lukaku-agent
