    No. Not a chance.

    We don't have anything like that level of appeal.

    Besides, even if, IF, he were interested, what kind of wages would he want?

    £40m a year. He’d agreed terms with Madrid last year only for PSG to then offer him about double.

    Only Madrid can afford him and can get away with it, as in City could pay but wouldn’t clear PL fair play.

    We could afford 50m a year. The commercial opportunities would cover that equally.

    It's took us a year and a half to negotiate with Maddison, let alone Mbappe

    Sometimes opportunities come around once in a lifetime.

    A very talented footballer but the exact opposite of everything we're tyring to do. Obviously he wouldn't come in a million years but I really don't think we'd want him anyway.

    Thinks it's clear that we are trying an evolution not a revolution. We'll improve the squad and first team but finish lower next season, we had no right to do as well as we did this year. 6th place next season would be a good season.

    I generally find that once in a lifetime experiences leave me thinking "never again"

    What happened?! If I’ve got another summer of positive signings and progress I’m going to be really pissed off.

    Sick to death about the Maddison rumours. Great player, get him signed ffs, no more dallying. It’s been going on for over a year now.

    Mate I gave up on worrying about this, honestly I don’t bother thinking about it. We’re going to be dealing with demands, agent bollocks, competition elsewhere, etc. But if we want the player and he’s interested it will happen, we have to relax and have faith.

    I’m 100% certain we will sign four top players at least this summer. None of them will be McTominay or Maguire.

    I suspect you're going to be disappointed.
