Add MBappe, and we could over 1/3 of the French National starting 11 playing for us
I hate tweets like this that make no effort to link to the source. Have been the same telegraph quote from last night twisted about 12 different ways by these accounts
Confused me a little, how?
Why on earth would we need Matuidi? Much prefer Pereira to be given the chance at being Pogba's back up
I think matuidi if we sign him will be a stop gap signing. He is already 30 and maybe we atre investing higher amounts in Attack and defense which are more cause for concern. He will be our ramirez.
It lists the source as AS
Meh, not really keen on Matuidi. We should go for someone younger.
No, Matuidi is detrimental to Pogba's game, Deschamps has nothing to do with it.
Matuidi runs around like a headless chicken, you put him in with Pogba in a 2 or a 3 and he gets in the way and requires Pogba to play more restrained to cover for Matuidi's lack of discipline.
You have someone in mind? I am guessing matuidi comes for 10-15 million and gives us two good years. While we take care of our defense and attack this window and give a chance to perreira to grow.
Many better options available than feckin Matuidi.
Fabinho.
Well hopefully Jose knows that, and we won't be buying him. Although he is leaving this season I've heard.
Griezmann would be a huge signing. Already an iconic player with such a killer instinct in the prime of his career. If we get him, a decent holding midfielder and left back with Rashford as our number 9 we will look a much more well-balanced side.
Can't rely solely on Rashford yet, need a proven goalscorer as well in my opinion. Defoe would have been a good option for a year, don't think Ibra will stay.
Looks like it'll be a big summer for City with Zabaleta already gone too
Fabinho, Bakayoko and even Eric Dier (who'd cost a fortune) are all better options than Matuidi for the type of midfielder we need.
I didn't think Navas had been there that long. Have they cancelled his contract or is it up?
Matuidi and Pogba in a midfield 2 would be horrible. Please no
Well Atleti are bolstering their attacking options.
I'm taking it they're thanking them for finally leaving.
His contract's up, joined them in 2013.
City fans might have better info but it seems Kolarov will survive Pep`s purge.
Why do you think so? You don't think that a midfield three of Matuidi, Pogba, and Herrera could potentially be a lot better than Fellaini, Pogba, and Herrera?
Is he too offensive? I don't know much about Matuidi.
Who said we're playing a midfield 2?
Not sure.
What I got from it is that he's decided to leave. But hasn't decided where.
Delaney has a more detailed illustration.
When the journos asked him if he would speak to Mourinho about his future,he said No. That he knew what he wanted to do
Pogba and Matuidi are both at their best as LCM. I don't see how they'll complement each other.
Griezmann would do that. We should get a back up to Rashford though yeah. Hernandez back might be a good shout.
Agreed, although this rumour does the rounds every summer so I have my reservations.
it claims the source is AS
I doubt Hernandez would want to come back to be Rashford's backup. Didn't he leave us in the first place because he didn't want to be a backup? And his stock is much higher now than when he left.
But yeah, I think we should find another striker to rotate with Rashford - even though we buy Griezmann. Unless we decide to keep Zlatan and he's healthy around the beginning of the season. Then we should be okay up front with Rashford, Zlatan, Griezmann, and occasionally Martial.
Matuidi will not cost more than £20m, experienced international, would be a good signing.
Add Naingollan, Mendy and Paredes to that list. There are plenty of options out there.
Also says further down he has more or less made up his mind so not misleading.
At least that seems to be the consensus among the people commenting on Instagram. Has this been coming for a while? I don't think I've even noticed any talk about him being linked with a move to City.
