I know we could never sign him, but Dybala is quickly becoming one of my favourite players.

Dreamland but would we really never have a chance? Could he not see how aguero has adapted to the league and how well he has done and how well respected he is in the national team after plying his trade in our league.

He is the best up and coming striker with the abilities that Tevez and aguero show but he looks like he needs to bulk up and bolster his frame to succeed in our league but I'm sure poch would take him to the next level if he wanted the challenge.

To dare is to do...... Big money transfer but well worth the gamble

Gundogen's only 25 and there was rumour he was set to leave Dortmund. I know they convinced him to sign an extension in 2015 but it was only until 2017.

Very good footballing busy **** with excellent big game experience and still pretty young. With only a year on his contract wouldn't cost a fortune either.

What is Tielemans like? I have a friend who is convinced he's a genuine target for us. In fact, he thinks Batshuayi, Umtiti, Tielemans & someone called Praet, are all targets for us. I've only heard of Umtiti & Batshit out of that lot :oops:

Probably going to City.

If we do attempt to sign a RCB (which is unfortunately seeming increasingly likely), then I wouldn't be surprised if we try to sign Ajax's Joel Veltman who, from what I've read, is basically a younger Alderweireld.

Apparently Roma have to raise at least €30m by the end of the month...

Cheeky bid for Pjanic?

I don't understand this at all. We have Dier and CCV. We have Wimmer as cover for LCB. Seems really odd to be thinking of wasting resources and squad space on another CB.

Neither do I. I guess with CL, Poch might think that it would be better to get a proven back-up to Toby, with CCV maybe going out on loan. But as I've always said, any DM we sign is likely to have played as CB as well, so it makes little sense to sign both a DM and a RCB.

I think the solution is to find a DM who's defensive-minded enough to be capable of playing at CB, or has played there before.

Someone like Dendoncker, for example. Kills 2 birds with one stone, without hurting CCV's long-term development.

That knee op is going to make it very difficult for us to sign him even if he were available to us. City could afford to take a pragmatic view on it (17m is chicken feed and a small risk to them), we couldn't.
Not sure why a player would go from Dortmund to us anyway.
