It is times like this that I love our bald headed leader.

Good luck City!!!
I'll draw my own personal analogy of what it must be like dealing with Levy based on true events: about an hour ago I weighed myself at 15 stone and a pound. I then took a very long, necessary and logistically well coordinated dump. After said ablution, I weighed myself and expected to be at least a pound lighter (it was a three flush session), only to find I'd actually gained weight. In short, I'd been levy'd

Has he? Thought it was Bellerin last season?

Yeah looking at the team from 15/16 it was Rose who had been named in the last 2 not Walker.

It doesn't really change my point though. City has set the bar by paying ridiculous money for Stones. Compared to Stones Walker is the finished article therefore should command a much higher fee.

As far as I can see, there's no right-back of Walker's quality that we have any chance of getting. So we should keep him - it's that simple. He may sulk and not play in August, but he'll be back again after the international break and we'll have one of the best right-backs in Europe again. Plus it will reinforce - for the media and our players, most of whom are on long contracts - that we're simply not a selling club.

What if he isn't happy and carries on sulking?

It doesn't happen. Same was said about Modric when we didn't let him go to Chelsea - he was brilliant for us from September on. Footballers want to play. And will knuckle down wherever they are when window over.

particularly in a World Cup year --- don't impress Poch, don't play, don't go to WC
Simple.
Particularly with Trippier and Clyne challenging for England time

Ok. So what happens next January? Then next summer?

We certainly don't sell him in January. And then next summer re-assess. His contract runs til 2021. Ball entirely in our court.

If you say so. Personally I want every player 100% buying in to Poch. If one wants to leave, I don't want them here.

He's a Spurs employee, we can just stick him in high viz and tell him to man a security hut at WHL. Or send him out on loan to the Royal Marines

Did you guys see the Tweet by Man City's Official Twitter today regarding Ederson?

They literally posted a video with that face-altering software of their players faces aging. They actually thought the Ederson deal took "forever" because it didn't happen on Monday but on Thursday.

What the fuck would they do if a transfer were to unfold like GKN for us last year?
