What will happen to kalvin phillips. His carrer is very unstable right now.
This guy has no clue .. JB was never coming to city and vice versa. Kalvin philips is a number 6 he will compete with Rodri and Kova will replace Gundo as he is leaving.
Honestly Kovacic is more injured than Gundo and the age difference isnโt than large, if Iโm city Iโm giving gundo a lucrative deal I donโt care, I see him another 2-3 of top football for him, Walker shouldnโt leave either
221 appeareances 13 assist and 6 goals …..plus he aint a cdm …..good money for chelsea
Man City is about to turn the rest of the league into feeder clubs ๐
The same hype these guys are giving Bellingham they did the same with Sancho ๐. Bellingham good but calm tf down , he hasn't done anything career wise and Spain apart from 3/4 teams that are hard or hardish to play the rest are Championship level teams.
A fantastic signing for City, and at ยฃ34m itโs a bargain
City were never really in for jude bellingham
City are not gonna let their team all get old at the same time. Even KDB will need replacing in the next 2 or 3 years. They can't let their team get old and they won't.
Very good signing. Very experienced and competent. Even for Croatia at the world stage.
With Rodri, Kevin De Bruyne, and Kovacic leading the squad that has young talent such as:
Tommy Doyle
Maximo Perrone
Phill Foden
Rico Lewis
Haalan
Alvarez
Pep will cook another treble!๐๐๐
Nice replacement if Gundogan leaves mega addition if Gundogan doesnt leave
Ederson
Ake,Gvardiol, Dias, Stones
Rodri, Kimmich (Kovacic Cover both)
Foden, KDB, Grealish
Haaland
๐๐
Can someone please shut Yan up. Espn should fire him at the earliest.
Seems like bad news for Kalvin Philips…
Lol pep is like Bernie. I ask for you full support today, spends all the money he wants as always.
As a city fan. Im not happy
No, technically not a pep style player. Will be a bench warmer
Theres no chance 7 players leave. Ogden is a dope. Only 5 even have any rumors of leaving.
The players in the middles was not good enough they had to go Chelsea will be fine come next season
Today is the day I myself become to admire Pep the most although I never been a his fan at all time, like before I was upset when Real Madrid sold this guy to Chelsea and now Pep already see through his mind to bring Croatian to MC wooooo Midd field been strong and now stronger and more attacking sharply in next season. Smart Coach
Philips need to go 50 million bench warmer sell get a creative offensive mind
I absolutely see no reason why Chelsea would sell Kovacic. It's madness.
Odgen is trying his hard to downplay them
and these players are still here, haven't left yet
massively underrated player
United fan here. I'm genuinely allergic to Ogden's takes. He's one of the bad ones in my opinion.
He's over exaggerating anything negative towards city right now
We donโt need any banter fc players ๐
Should be able to do a job. No spring chicken so the fee is a bit questionable but as long as the wages aren't too outrageous…
Not a good signing, Pep gonna have to work on him.
Philipps should go to Liverpool
Why is everything interesting to jan๐คฃ
Wow Mark Ogden is a salty United Homer!!
lol it's almost sad how much he hates city and can't hide it.
Mark reminding me again how cloueless he is about football .. leave transfer talks to fab please
I don't think Kovacic worth 40m, guy not even that good. 20M should be his price.
We forgot kovacic was always wanted by city whats the drama theirs nothing missed out on Bellingham….bellingham isnt even at Fodens level
Yes a very good signing a steady player YNWA
Such a baller.
Mark Ogden is quite possiibty the WORST football reporter there is.
" Kovacic coming into Man City poses a question about the future of Kalvin Philips and Mahrez"
Do you even watch football? Maybe Kovacic is coming to replace Ederson az well? Potato head๐ฎโ๐จ
