He's quality when he's fit, but he's not a RB or a DM which we need massively more.

Think if we can get him, get him.

Too many injury concerns over tarkowski and Brathwaite, plus Keane and obrien aren’t dead certs to perform.

I wonder what the transfer committee thinks our priorities are?

Coleman will no doubt earn that weekly wage at some point

Is Moyes now desperate for a CB who is decent on the ball?

Bobble saying we’re after Nathan Ake 30 now how did that happen. Could cover left back and centre back. If he plays until Coleman Ashley young age it’s a deal

What’s the point in this signing?

I remember being excited at the concept of being City's "preferred B team" of sorts, where we take a promising player or two on loan each year (who is ready for Prem but maybe not UCL-calibre). Inevitably, we'll end up buying a couple of players who are on, say, the McAtee level.

Good for them, good for us.

Instead, we seem to be the new marks to take their tired, old (huddled masses yearning to be free?) and overpriced off their hands.

Great for them, shambolic for us.

I guess that's just how the 21st century is gonna be. Enjoy the 2 decades of Nigel Farage rule!

Well if you really want to know….

Rumours are that Jarrad Branthwaite is out long term with this injury

Working on a deal for a 30 year old with major fitness/availability issues?

We’re fucking cooked.

Don’t get me wrong, Moyes knows how to extend the career of older defenders and capture all the good football they have left to play but it kind of depends on them being able to play regularly.

Maybe Grealish has demanded someone he can pass to.
