Really like Dier, a bit underated on here, he'd provide the platform for the rest of the midfield to get more license to roam with him holding. He's really decent with his feet, good passing range, big, tall strong, could fill in at CB, very young. Would take him tomorrow.

Same guy who reported Silva/mendy to city. So looks like Pep will get his business done very very early.
Has Mendy already agreed to go? Shame.
Interesting. Maybe this will open the door for us to move for Ederson if Dave leaves. Portuguese media linked us with him yesterday.
Same here, functional but not particularly exciting. Kind of like a Mourinho team actually
Er ... what?Are you a woman?
Dier, Lukaku, Griezmann and Keane will cost well over £200m
Yeah, quite surprised how poorly he's rated on here. Is there really that big a gap between him and Fabinho?
Keane 25m
Griezmann 89m
Lukaku 60-80m
Dier 30-45m
Total 204 - 239m
If we were to sell a couple of players that brings it in around budget.
I'm so happy transfer season is upon us
Yes city
Silva -70 million
Mendy- 45 million
Walker-45 million
Peckford -26 million
That is 186 million from city, i think that will be that for them. If the sign fabinho on top of these 4, they will be clear favourites for the league.
They need to sign a centre back. That is the area (before the departures of their 4 players yesterday) they severely lack in quality. Also, like you say a centre midfielder/defensive midfielder is a necessity.
We will get a discount of 25 % on keane. Dont think we will sign lukaku, maybe Morata for 40-50 million. We already have 40 million from sale of depay and schniderlin.
It will be closer to 150 million for us.
Oh no I don't think we will either. He's just the most expensive striker I've seen us linked to so used him to show we could still afford it.
TBF, the last Spurs CM we bought wasn't that highly regarded, but he's done yeoman's work. Still would prefer Fabinho, but it seems Pep is getting all the glamour toys this season, while we look like we're getting coal. Early days, yet, but the current news sure has taken the buzz off of United winning the EL. Heck, maybe the Monaco boys weren't Jose's cup of tea, but they sure made the cafe go ga-ga. Eh, muppet season
Notice how the media have gone from saying United want deals done in 2 weeks to saying that we hope to have some players lined up by pre season on July 9th?
That's some difference.
That's some difference.
Yeah that's true tbf. Think we will look to sign someone like morata
They will have gundogan back and have retained toure. They also have fernandinho and Fernando. 4 players for one position, which also Kompany can play is a bit of overkill.
Think if they go for a centre half they wont go for midfielder. Otherwise they will spend in excess of 300 million to land everyone and that would be Insane.
Yes
They got City and United mixed up or more probably have no fecking clue
Kompany returned and he seems in fine form, if he stays fit they just need to identify the right player to play alongside him.
Maybe Jose wants someone who is used to the PL.
The links with Costa and Lucas Moura. Can the experts tell me? Are they more powerful runners with the ball rather than twinkle-toed dribblers like Silva?
Panicking for no reason.
On power alone, yes, but that doesn't make them in any way more effective. Though I am still a big fan of Moura.
I just think, that Jose has set out on a path and has a plan in his head as to how he want this team to look and not sure Silva would fit into it, not without changing everything again. He fits in at City.
Is the trait limited only to women?
To be honest, I'd see Silva fitting in better than Costa. Silva works very hard, Costa is supposed to have a shite attitude. But I do see your point, Mourinho does appreciate his athletic, powerful players. Moura would be a very good signing, not that it'll happen.
Yeah, when you look at it rationally, he does. Doesn't mean he wouldn't have improved us, but he probably was enamored with the thought of playing for Pep. Jose would rather have a player like Costa or Willian, but then again, Pep did get Costa at Bayern, so maybe the difference is slight. Jose definitely prefers more graft than Pep.
Agree, I think someone like Costa would fit in a Jose side more than Silva.
Apparently not
Costa actually seems to be a winger that can cross out wide and shoot when cutting in. Lucas Moura is just disappointing.

@Penna is a woman you jabroni. Leave off with your casual sexism as well.
Bouhafsi said 70m Euros. 43m pounds would be the deal of the century.
