Molson Canadian Posted 21 July 2023 Share Posted 21 July 2023 If they did sell Mebude to us it would be a deal with a buyback clause I would assume. They did the same with Nacho but obviously didn't take it up. This kid looks very promising. Why is he representing Scotland though at the youth level? Online it says he was born in London Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Giles I expect to be done Mavididi ✅ Still believe there's Tom Cairney deal on the table, Fulham are having a crisis atm and have signed 0 players so unlikely before the season starts. Still expect us to visit Man City again for Mebude. Lots of irons in the fire and 6 weeks to go so lots can change. heard anything about Archer from Villa?

80footgiraffe Posted 21 July 2023 Share Posted 21 July 2023 2 hours ago, Finnegan said: Awkward one that. Zaha has scored a goal every 360 minutes in the Premier League, Mavididi has scored one every 270 minutes in Ligue 1. But Zaha has played in a variety of positions including as a central striker, it's generally a better quality league but he's played for a team that for years under Hodgson was painfully negative. I think it's a bit optimistic to suggest he's better but it is a positive reflection of his rate of return for goals. I'd say he's probably a more accurate and consistent finisher but Zaha likely has a much better all round game. Tbh even in the realms of quality we must be doing well to get him in the Championship. You’ve convinced me 🫡 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shift out the bottlers and we’ll be ready. I still think we'd need a proper #10 - not convinced Casadei is that man. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're more than likely not going to play one. Whilst I do think people are forgetting we've hired Enzo Maresca not Pep Guardiola and that he's going to be his own man with his own ideas, early signs are that his preferred shape is going to draw a lot of influence from Pep. The system we've used so far has featured two 8s. I'd be surprised if we play a conventional 10 much. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Literally none of those other clubs have a team in the same league with a similar name. There's not a Norwich United or a Birmingham Athletic or got that matter a Leicester Rovers in the Championship that needs the distinction. Man City are commonly called just City to distinguish them from the other Manchester next door, yknow, the biggest football club in the world. Even in Leicester more people refer to our football club as Leicester than City. You're just being needlessly sensitive tbh, as is everyone else with the same extremely cringe worthy chip on their shoulder. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
