I know we're still in June and I should fight the inner muppet but with the relative names thrown around by each of our rivals I can only see the gap increasing if some of these moves come off.

Then I remember, Perisic 
I'm calling bullshit. Pep dining out with Dembele inn Manchester wouldn't have gone unnoticed. Right guys...
Yeah 100%. Doesn't happen.I'm calling bullshit. Pep dining out with Dembele inn Manchester wouldn't have gone unnoticed. Right guys...
Maybe they dined at Pep's houseI'm calling bullshit. Pep dining out with Dembele inn Manchester wouldn't have gone unnoticed. Right guys...
Cue meltdown and fantasy City formations due to random nothing link from shite media source.
Is there a player who wasn't linked to City this summer ? I don't why Ronaldo didn't get linked to them when his saga was going on.
If he's available we should be all over it. He's a potentially world class game changer which is exactly what we need.
Instead, we'll almost certainly sign Perisic and some will still wonder why our team with Fellaini, Lingard, Rashford and Perisic in it are miles off success. Frustrating.

Cause he has always said he wont move to anyone else in England except United?
Too defensive. Put Dembele in the middle, Sterling out wide, Silva alongside De Bruyne.
If you're worried, play Toure alongside Stones to bring a genuine attacking threat from the back.

Borussia Dortmunds plans to buy Jesus "Tecatito" Corona if Dembele leaves

It would be criminal if he went to City without us trying because we were so confident in Griezmann's arrival.
Wow that would really stink the place out, yet I can definitely see that being our first choice with a couple of injuries/players dropped
There's nothing to suggest he's going to City or that City are even interested.
Wow, a lot of doom and gloom over an almost certain piece of transfer gossip nonsense.
Just my reaction to news, whether true or not, that he was in Manchester dining with Guardiola.
If City gets him, it's an offense worthy of a capital punishment that Man Utd let it happen without trying everything. I think Dembele will leave for sure this summer. The firing of Tuschel is one thing, but the biggest reason is that he has issues with his ex-agent who is taking him to court and will most likely win a large compensation over the Dortmund transfer. It's expected that his next transfer will help settle the legal issues with his ex-representative and finally clear him from his employ.
If this is true, he needs to meet with Jose Mourinho yesterday and be given the #7 shirt with a tactical setup that will let him shine. Ousmane is actually not bad at tracking back and helping on defense so I think Mourinho would be a lunatic not to try anything to get this guy.
All that being said, dude is a big Barcelona fan....so there will be that chapter to deal with down the line, but whatever he produces until then will be worth it IMO.

I do not think Dembele leaves this summer and especially not to City.
Agreed. Their 80m asking price is very reasonable in todays market too.
I don't think City will sign Dembele but I do think he's available and I'm certain that we will sign Perisic.
What about the rule that unless there are only 6 months left on the contract of a player clubs can't directly negotiate with players. Dortmund would've certainly said no to that.
Everyone does it. Clubs only make a big deal out of it to make a point e.g. Southampton humiliating Klopp
Le10 aren't much better than Daily Star.
I thought that Barcelona got him and that he will spend the next season playing for Dembele and then move to Barca.
Dafuq?
That makes sense
Dembele FC could probably field a pretty decent team tbf.
Are you stoopid? He's obviously transferring to a club called Dembele. Yes, a club composed entirely of players called Dembele!
I think he means paying for Dembele not playing...as in a loan.
Raheem Sterling, you twonk!!
Eh? He's played 64/76 PL games since joining City. And 18 in Europe too, for good luck. He'll get games next year regardless, might even finish above Liverpool if he's lucky.Raheem Sterling, you twonk!!
I know the rumours to City are rubbish but why didn't we take a punt on this guy when he was at Rennes?
Within one season his cost has gone from £20m to £80m? Can't we do business like this anymore or do we have to be mugged off for ready made talent these days?
I would rather see us take a chance on the next up and coming player than spend (waste) over £40m for someone like Matic or Perisic. I thought Tielemans was awesome when we played Anderlecht and will no doubt move on to a bigger club than Monaco in a couple of years. Why not take the chance at £20m to play next to Herrera and Pogba. Just because we have money shouldn't mean we waste it. Look at Bayern purchasing Tolisso for example.

Because he wasn't interested.
Probably won't be long til we hear Dembele wasn't in Manchester either.
He wasn't. He was drinking in Diamond Lils in Blackpool. Our kid had a game of darts with him.
Or maybe the Dembélé who got wined and dined in Manchester was an imposter.
Because I can't imagine the mutiple bullshit award winners Le 10 Sport being imposters.
That makes sense
Raheem Sterling, you twonk!!
lol ya ll. alll. i meant he will stay in Dortmund and then go to barca
There's no solid links of him transferring to Barcelona? Only bullshit rumours, can't see him going there personally they have zero need and will probably get Delefeou back as a wing option for a pittance.
That was last season, before the world class cheque book manager... well... wrote another half a billion worth of cheques. No way is he better than Jesus, Sane, Silva, the other Silva, KdB, or even Aguero. He'll get as many games as Woodburn will for us.
