Keep KDB, sell Silva
If Real can keep Modric this long, then City can keep KDB.
Great segment. I'd like to see you guys do this for all the top 6 clubs
This has to be the most retarded question ever.
Why does no club in Europe want to take a chance on Sergi Gomez? Dude is a technical baller
Dump two of their greatest players! No chance. They may leave but will never be 'dumped'.
The word "Dump" is extremely DISRESPECTFUL and these pundits should apologise and correct their manners. Shame
Did this man just say "Rashy to man city" 😅
This must get decided between the players and the management but ideally the long term should be getting young talents two or three years from now.
It is highly recommended and a MUST for Manchester City FC management, board of directors, coaching staff, people working in their club who are involved on the transfer-market to permanently sell who are currently out on loan to play for another football club, do not offer a loan with buy back clause or with a number or percentage rights, recall or return players that are currently on-loan by another football club to play for Manchester City FC, ageing ((28) years old and above), inconsistent (due to limited playing time, never have played and always on the bench, poor defensively, not performing well) regardless of age, injury prone, those who are not comfortable playing in different position, that MUST happen "ON or BEFORE JULY 2029.
We are referring to Carson, Walker, De Bruyne, Stefan Ortega Moreno "Stefan Ortega", Ederson Santana de Moraes "Ederson", Kovačić, Cancelo, Stones, Bernardo Mota Veiga de Carvalho e Silva "Bernardo Silva", Aké, Akanji, Grealish, Phillips, Rodrigo Hernández Cascante "Rodri", Dias, Nunes, and Couto.
Our beloved club Manchester City should focus on acquiring and promoting rising young talents between 17 to 21 years of age. This can be found in Manchester City Academy, different team playing in premiere league, outside premiere league (La Liga, Serie A, Ligue 1, Bundesliga), or outside Europe (MLS, AFCON, Campeonato Brasileiro Série A, Argentine Super League, and other football league from other countries). This is to save a lot of money to renovate whole Etihad Stadium, pay debts to fully comply with Financial Fair Play, and eventually have a great amount of money to sign a superstar in Manchester City.
Asking the Man Utd correspondent to "dump" KDB?!? Are ESPN trying to lose viewers?? Gab, I expected better from you.
De Bruyne clearly losing his mojo!
no one on any media platforms have the bottle to discuss the charges when it comes to city. 20 seconds into this video and the supposed one with all the brains is stating "Man city are in a really good place". Same old glazing.. its boring and i dont even support a prem team
Dump?
Claudio eccheveri is the one going to replace bernardo and kdb alongside foden
Under 10k views atm, this is def a City analysis 😅
They should be kept
John Stones is rumored to join Kompany's Bayern
I hope guys didn't get paid for this nonsense!
Keep both as long as possible and use them in big matches only
-Extend Edi
-Walker, Stones, Cancelo,Gomez in the market
-Bring back Mcatee,Extends KDB, sell Phillips,
KB was never the fastest player but made up for that with his great intelligence. Nowadays he is not able to complete 90 minutes and this won't improve. So now might be a good time to sell him.
Love this segment. Let's see you guys do some other teams.
An incredible oversight to exclude savio from this discussion… literally the one guy real city fans are most interested in what the next step is for him. Instead there is airtime for the idea that Marcus rashford could go to city – this is why espn struggles to be a serious show
There is absolutely nooooooo chance Nathan Aki is LEAVING Man City. Pep finds him very important in the way City plays & the positions he covers.
KDB can go 50/50. Gabi talks bout stats that show what KDB still does but NOT bout what HE NO LONGER DOES DO.
Still feeling it for Grealish. He can do far more moving around in the inside left or right. Without breakneck acceleration in a 1 on 1 offensive situation or with fast twitch ability or attributes, he is almost limited way out wide. Technically astute and wid iq vision, I feel he desperately deserves a chance doing what he had as a role at Villa.
What kinda stupid title is this
I think they should keep KDB but he needs to be in better shape. Bernardo Silva I think is lacking pace. City need a Bobb on the right wing and he needs to get more chances to play to get confidence and experience. Pep should give the younger players more chances overall. He is waiting to long in my opinion.
John Stones is one of the home grown must have in the team. City would have to find home grown players to replace both him and Jack Grealish.
I wish espnfc so-called pundits would keep the good name of Manchester City out of their dirty little mouths.
They went to hairdressers before the show
City don't need to make many changes. i would offload Grealish, Nunes, and Phillips if they can. they have Savio coming in already. so the only other signing they really need to go for is a central-midfielder. i know they've been linked with Paqueta but it looks like he might get a very long ban so i don't think that will happen. Guimaraes is an option. i like Barella as well.
One thing is guaranteed tho, Scott Carson will be there.
City should only contemplate two options for KDB
1. Sell him for stupid money if there is an offer from a Saudi club (minimum 100 mil ) to prevent him leaving for free
2. Extend his contract with at least a year , preferable two
Sell both. A somewhat rebuilding year. Thats if they're not relegated.
how about a swap deal with real , Bernardo and some cash for rodrygo????? Bernardo gets his dream move to Spain
