Milan think he’d be a cheaper option
This is from Tuttosport in Italy. Not actually the Mail reporting it.
Unlucky you shit bag.
(Raiola, not you Tom Van Persie!)
The tub of lard will be getting this years bonus from De Ligt. He’ll try again next year with Pogba
Aye thats true. The fecker.
Wiat a minute, are we actually gonna sell some of our dross players?? Early Christmas
Haha you fat feck. feck off
We can offer them Rojo for 15m.
McBurnie by name, McSunBurnie by nature, someone get this poor man some aftersun!
Throw Darmian in as a sweetener
It looks less like he’s switching clubs and more like he’s running for the US Senate.
What is this? Casa Amor?
It's an Italian team. They will offer us £5 up front and another £15 if they get their bet up at the weekend. I doubt he's going anywhere especially if they won't pay £18m for Lovren.
Exactly this. James Robson needs to be placed in the Tier 4 of the reliability list.
Fat cnut
Double the price for him cheapskates
I'd take Romagnoli.
Italian teams can feck off 
Look at Swede go ffs wrong thread, dont ban plx
We should ask £60m absolute minimum. He still has potential to be a world class defender and is only 25.
What planet are you on.
He's worth 25 million minimum. Not a chance even us would sell him to these shysters for 15 million or less.
I'm not the most avid Serie A watcher, but when I've seen him he's looked good; loads of potential. What's the deal with him?
I'm getting sick of journalists bashing us for literally anything. He wants to play Champions League and would have meant dealing with Raiola. There is no chance that deal would have happened.
18 months ago Laporte cost City £57m.
Some would say he is in top 10 in the world
He is the same age as Bailly and granted has not got the same injury record, but statistically you can see Bailly might be underrated

In summary, Bailly looks a marginally better defender, but not as good at passing or providing long ball options, but hard to read into that given the possession based game of City so more of the passes are probably low risk and the long balls to high energy wingers.
This is based off a relatively small sample of games for Bailly, so hard to read into it, but i do think the potential is there. If he can avoid injury and keep discipline he could be a useful asset.
Bailly's positioning is fecking horrendous. That's not something that can be captured by stats. He's constantly getting us into trouble by wandering into no mans land. He's absolutely not underrated, if anything some of our fans still overrate him.
I've no idea what Bailly ever did for us for so many to still rate him, he's regressed basically every season he's been here.
You know the thread is shit when you’ve had the same GRIMSBY tweet twice
He was decent for his first month or two and he's a bit mad. That's caused people to get attached to him.
4th centre back signing of the transfer window for them. No way should Axel go back there.
Would he be worth asking for ad part if a potential Pogba deal?
