I just read that City signed Maddison as a replacement for Bowen and it’s “a great deal for all parties” Somehow I doubt that. Preparing early for the third division perhaps.
Knowing our business acumen he'll probably spend half a season at West Ham then go there in the summer for £30M+
He's not proven in the Premier League , if he does well yes he'll be worth more , we really aren't in that strong a negotiating position though
Business acumen? Papa said many years ago the bank of Allam was shut. They seem to have come up with a model, buy young players and later move them in for a profit, that is working. Any monies owed is to them, interest payments are received by them. Business acumen? Oh, yes.
Looks like James Scott is all done too. That’s two young wingers we’ve signed this window, certainly building long term.
Jarrod has earnt this move. It would have been better maybe if we had kept him until the of the season. But his stock is high, he’s been a pleasure to watch over the last few seasons wit no complaints or any issue. Smashing lad and Ihope he goes onto a achieve much greater success.
I think everything changed after the loss on Tuesday. Almost certain from what I've been told that as soon as the play offs where pretty much out of reach he was pushed to interested teams as available
Let's hope Maddison can step up and perform at this level , not been particularly impressed with the League 1 signings McCann has made so far
