Joao Cancelo leaving City 0

What message does Cancelo’s departure send out?

It was one of the most surprising notifications I had received on my phone for a long time. It honestly came out of nowhere. Cancelo’s loan move was something which even a seasoned punter would not have sniffed at. My first thoughts were of thinking about the situation behind the scenes. Rarely have we seen City take such decisions in a hurry. Normally, City would have waited until the summer...

Man City interested in Girona Right back Arnau Martinez

I was checking all of the latest transfer news related to Man City today. To be honest, I was not expecting to find much. You anyway don’t get much on a Sunday evening. But, it was surprising to find us linked with Arnau Martinez (https://www.sportskeeda.com/football/rumor-manchester-city-keen-signing-barcelona-target-20-million-release-clause-reports). What caught my eye even more was the fact that Barca are trying very hard to sign him. As I went through the profile of...

Bernardo Silva Transfer news 0

Man City set to offer Bumper contract to Bernardo Silva

Despite signing a player like Erling Haaland, it was Bernardo Silva’s transfer saga that dominated last summer’s window. All of the fans were even calling out our transfer director for letting the situation go out of hand. The big roar that fans let out for Bernardo Silva against Newcastle tells you how much we love him round here. I know that it won’t be so easy. But, it is imperative...

Khvicha Kvaratskhelia linked to City 0

Man City said to move for Khvicha Kvaratskhelia

The fact that we have been linked with Europe’s in – form left winger is not a surprise at all. It’s not been even four months since his arrival at Napoli and Kvaratskhelia has already turned the heads of various top clubs around Europe. The talk is that Real Madrid and PSG are also interested in landing this top talent from Napoli. The competition is going to be very stiff,...

Aourar vs Bellingham 0

City to prioritize Houssem Aouar over Bellingham?

One thing I can say with certainty is that there will be no lack of suitors for Bellingham next summer. Many City fans want us to go all out for Bellingham and look to knock all the other clubs out of the water. I personally believe that unlike Haaland, the competition might not be as tough. The reason is quite simply a case of supply and demand. Almost all of...

Jack Grealish and his future at City 0

What is the future of Grealish at City?

There were reports today morning that Grealish has asked his agent to start looking for a new club(https://www.football365.com/news/grealish-asks-agent-find-him-new-club-man-city). The report further goes onto say that Grealish does not expect to stay at the club beyond 2023. I know that articles like these will keep on springing up everywhere. But, the truth is that the doubts still keep lingering in my mind about the sustainability of Jack Grealish on the left...

Man City transfer window 0

Analyzing our transfer window

Transfer windows are never really a benchmark to judge Pep Guardiola. In fact, when the window doesn’t go well, it motivates Pep to innovate and take the game to an other level. Last season we went for Harry Kane and put in bid after bid till the very end. When we didn’t get him, all our rivals went hammer and tongs stating that City without a striker would struggle. Well,...

Manuel Akanji Signing 0

Pep’s thinking behind Manuel Akanji signing

It’s an almost impossible task to understand Pep’s thinking. Whenever it seems that we have finally got a grip on what goes inside his mind, he continues to prove us wrong. The squad selection for the Champion’s league final was a big example of how crazy his decisions can go. May be it’s this craziness that separates Pep from all the others in the world. My intention here is not...

Akanji Strengths 0

Strengths and Weaknesses of Manuel Akanji

The adage goes that you need to have a certain profile to play as a Center Back in a Pep Guardiola team. You just need to look at the kind of Center Backs Pep has worked with over the course of his managerial career to understand the character and courage it takes to defend wide open spaces at the back. Despite having fit backup center backs on the bench, Pep...

Renan Lodi 0

Why didn’t we go for Renan Lodi?

Lodi signed for Nottingham Forest….What??…. I just could not believe the information. I had to double check it. It just didn’t make sense that a player who was playing regular Champions League football would join a team that was not even guaranteed top division survival. I know it’s just a loan deal, but again it defies logic to me. He is not even on that high of a wages for...
