United. Apparently Liverpool inquired after the Caicedo debacle, but weretold he now wanted to go to United, and obviously don't want to be used as an agent's decoy again. Pity, as his agent was practically begging us in January.

Exceptional player Divock Origi wants to come back to the premiership. Question is, which club?
I'm sure Everton would love to have him (so he can't score more goals against them).

See Doku screams very un pep like to me. He’s a guy that loves getting the ball and running past players. Compared to peps pass the ball around people.
Different option I guess as a plan B type
but so is haaland. totally unpep.
but if it's now 3241 then you want people in that 4 that stretch the field and stay wide. grealish does this well l, its just when he does get it he falls over or goes infield and back passes.
that's really our own problem as well our 3223 as it has absolutely no width to it unless salah and diaz stay wide.
Doku is a replacement for Mahrez and will probably be used in the same way. To beat up the bottom of the league and smash lower league teams in the cups.
Funny thing though was that Pep just a few weeks ago was saying he may have to sell Palmer, after the super cup performance, due to game time. Yet they go out and buy Doku who plays in a similar position, thus limiting Palmers game time even more.

Apparently signed couple promising kids for the academy
Trey Nyoni from Leicester and Amara Nallo from West Ham.

I look forward to them being hyped up, playing 1 cup game off the bench and then disappearing never to hear about them again
if academies are releasing them then usually our decision is based on making profit as we think they could be a pro.
if we pay good money (we bought one for 800k) then we think they are good.

Wolves signed nunes last year for 42m
City now bidding 47m for him and rightly rejected.
Now gonna sell a player a year after signing him for Caleb record fee for barely any profit.

City squad:
Leaving: Cancelo, laporte
GK: Ederson, Ortega (****)
"RB/RCB" Akanji, walker, lewis
"CB" Dias (this seems the key slot, theres enough others to cover)
"LB/LCB" Ake Gvardiol
CM/DM: Stones (again this is the key one to move to CM)
DM: Rodri, Phillips
CMx2: Kovacic Silva, KDB
Rw: alvarez, Palmer - this shows why it makes sense to by Doku kdb and silva both are injured right now.
LW: Grealish, foden
ST: Haaland
So for me city have lots of options but they have really 4 absolutely key players they cannot afford to lose. Ederson, Dias, Rodri and haaland. Theres a bit of cover for dias now but not for the other.
