Pau Torres

Defensively as a team we were more solid with Fred and The Scottish Player pressing in midfield

Matic and Pogba in the same starting line-up is too slow.

Put a Dunk on it.

The defence will miraculously look a whole lot better once we get a proper DM in.

Love a translated article Solskjaer’s side ‘plan an offensive’

Battling Barca for the lad apparently. Seems his buyout has gone up €20m in 3 days

Ffs

Sneakily knocked up his buy out clause?

Edit. Dunk got there

City have signed Aké. Not sure if that means they won’t go do signing another CB though, they love signing defenders.

Fancy them or Chelsea to go for Koulibaly tbh. Probably why they’ve gone for Ake as he’s a (on the face of it) cheaper option allowing them to chuck more money at Napoli.

City and Chelsea are going to take the piss this window imo.

We’ve got 67 more days of this. City this Chelsea that ffs. Let’s just see where we are in 67 days ffs

Can’t see Koulibaly going for anywhere near what they’re rumored to be asking for with his age. Agree that City will probably go for someone else as Aké is good but he’s probably got room to improve.

I’d quite happily take a decent CB and Sancho in this window and poet over the cracks elsewhere. Woodward will probably want rid of some of the shite Mourinho brought in.

won't be easy to compete with barca for a spanish player if they want him

City sniffing too

If he’s got a buyout clause just £#%&!ing pay it if we want him ffs don’t dither.

Thought Barca were having major money problems. Can't see them spending so much on a centre-back, if so.

They're skint. Making up stories of £130m bids for kids to save face.

Free run at this lad imo

Certainly miles better than Jones, Bailly and Rojo. Versatile across the back line too in case of injury. Not everyone’s cup of tea, but this is about improving the depth - and he’s out of contract.

Yeo, no brainer. For the same reason I'd take Perisic if it's easy, because they're not gonna buy 5 big money players.
