John Stones to City

£50m

If Poggers is worth a bit more than 2 stones then he's a bargain...

Go on... what's their twisted logic behind this one?

Turned down by Laporte, Pogba, Bonucci and Aubameyang... no other @#%&! will sign for them

Stones could and should become a world class player. Would've liked him at United tbh. Rio-esque.

TBF Jose probably only went for Bailly cos Stones wanted City/Pep.

They don't have the best track record with young English talent tbf

Sterling, Delph, Rodwell, Sinclair, Lescott, Johnson

Pretty stupid on our behalf for not getting this lad. We could easily work out a part exchange deal with them for the likes of Mata, Schneiderlein or Rojo.

Absolutely.

Not sure about his mettle, but all in all, he's a cracking player & playing under Guardiola can't hurt with his development. Shame.

Not really. He's shit.

Manolas though...

He has potential, I remember people thinking Pique was shit.
Smalling though

Baiily can be the potential guy imo. If we're buying a centre back get an experienced one like big Kostas.

not convinced. heard it before.

anyway, it's a poor move for him - as said i don't think he'll get as much out of it as he should.

Either would be an improvement but it seems likely that he'll keep Jones and Smalling.

Really not arsed about him going there. Never quite understood the hype around him. He's a good player but I'm not sure how good he can be.

May turn out to be world class, may not.

Zero £#%&!s given. Accident waiting to happen in most games I saw him in last season. He looks someway off being a good defender. Rather we keep faith in players like tuanzebe, fosu mensah and Williams. All of whom look to have attributes to be pretty good.

If we sign a centre half it needs to be an experienced leader.
