I've seen some say they'd like us to sign Maignan.

On the evidence of that goal he's the perfect Hugo replacement. A shot creeping in at his near post where you'd expect him to do better.

How did we lose to Milan. They are an awful side.
But inter dominated them in midfield, conte would never do that with the bloody double pivot

On the other hand this is a perfect example of how overrated Leao is. He has the ability, no doubt, but he can just be incredibly anonymous for large portions of games.

He’s an excellent example of a YouTube player. Would be easy to make a highlight reel where he looks world class but he’s very inconsistent and looses focus far too often. If he works on it he could still be a phenomenal player, but the mental aspect really needs work.

Sums up the state of transfers that he’s being talked about as a 100m player. He’s so so average. He’s a great athlete no doubt but has so many limitations

He does have the potential there’s no doubt. But I have watched a lot of Milan and he just fades completely for long stretches. He will have fantastic games but too often he will have matches like this one. Like I said, if he fixes it he will be a world beater but depends if he does.

Maybe. But he doesn’t have the output and he isn’t that young, there are better talents around. He’s a 50m player max but when murdyk is 100m transfers are a disgrace.

Remember when the serial winner lost to these, Wolves and Sheffield United in the same week?

To play your fiercest rivals in the CL semi final and put in such insipid performances in both legs is frankly unforgivable.

It also always makes me think a little when players have an off field focus, Leao has a music alter ego called Way 45. Not that players shouldn’t have hobbies of course but it does make me wonder considering I do feel like there are issues re focus and concentration. Ether way he’s not a player I’d spend 100 mil,

I know they're plastic but City need to win tonight if Pep is to really cement his legacy at City.

He'll be gunning for that CL trophy and he's been trying for long enough now.

Madrid always have a chance though.
