you know who owns them right?
if they want to they can offer those wages as well
not every player is like Sterling just jumping ship for the best wages.
Offering him those kind of wages would be insane and would make him the highest earner at City.
Shot in the dark here, but Volkswagen owns it right?
Having the ability to offer those wages and doing it are totally different.
I'd say 90% of pro players, depending on how old they are, take higher wages over staying in the Bundesliga on a team that won't win a title or probably even compete for one to go to the BPL and compete for one immediately.

Well he won a trophy last year and came in second, unlike City and already didn't work out once in England and wanted to leave.

Spurs are interested in Batshuayi, but I don't see Marseille selling him. With Gignac gone, he will be the starting striker for OM.
Do you think he's ready to lead the line?

Rabiot is solid. I would hate to see him go to spurs

Wolfsburg is a pretty solid team. They'll finish somewhere in the top 3. Bundi should be strong this year with Gladbach, Dortmund, and Wolfsburg all having good teams. Plus Schalke and Neverkusen fighting it out like usual.

I think he has to be our first option. Ideally, Marseille could have closed the deal for Beauvue, but Lacazette convinced him to go to Lyon at the last minute.

3 league games 9 total.
I really don't even see where he fits in this City team. He's a classic CAM. Especially if you move Silva to that role to keep Nasiri and Sterling on the wing especially to accommodate Sterling. He's not moving back to England to ride the bench again.

Don't care at this point. I don't want KDB, I need him.

He looks like he has the tools to be the best of all the young Belgian strikers..

He stil has dreads too, right? If he does then that's a given. Predator's always outshine the non-elite haired individuals. This is exactly where Lukaku went wrong.

I wouldn't be surprised to see Nasri in transfer discussions if de Bruyne is signed though.

It will be either him or Sterling riding the bench
then your get a DiMaria situation like we have in the off season

If he replaced Nasri on the wing it would be an awful choice.

Silva-de Bruyne-Sterling
There are obviously ways to make it work.

don't forget about Yaya as well b/c he basically has to play in a more advance role bc he is a liability playing box to box or in a holding role.

City are obsessed with playing CAMs in as many AM roles as possible. So I can see them going for him, but I think it's terrible team building. The only player I want City to sign is Pogba. I don't care what money they have to pay. I don't care what ridicule it brings them to make it happen. He's the type of player they need to bring in to make these formations work. Just like Sterling was in my opinion. De Bruyne is not.

I really don't want De Bruyne to go to City. He thrives in the middle of the field where David Silva plays. I don't see that working at all. Plus, I am a huge fan of De Bruyne, and City is starting to have too many of my favorite players.
Posted on 7/15/15 at 1:33 pm to SwaggerCopter
If city brings in KDb, the Silva to Juve rumors would make more sense.
Posted on 7/15/15 at 1:36 pm to SwaggerCopter
I could see De Bruyne being at City for one year with Silva and them maybe saying he'll be like a better James Milner, play wherever we need you to and we'll be sure to get you as many opportunities as possible. Injuries, especially with Nasri and Toure have become a foregone conclusion. The opportunities for MF's in this team are there.
If it happened then I think Silva is likely out next year with that CAM role handed to De Bruyne. Of course this is all from my head and I don't think De Bruyne would take that unless the wages were a substantial amount.

The Old Lady are searching for an attacking midfielder and see Cuadrado as an ideal fit for their squad.
