If we haven't got huge amounts to spend,  then going after players like King and Brooks is a decent option.

Bournemouth were asking for £50m for Brooks in the summer.

The pandemic and the citeh case has blown FFP out of the water.

FFP didn't come in until after Man City won the lottery.

He means Man City winning their appeal at the CAS.

I'd forgotten about that, tbf. Was that pre-Covid? Seems like a million years ago.

What’s his position and what players would you compare him to? 
I often read how highly rated he is but I’ve rarely seen him play.

Yikes. This year has gone on like a Mrs Brown's Boys Marathon edited to include a score comprising solely Muse songs.

Richarlison mentioned by Twitter ITK’s so obviously not true in the slightest but thought I would report.

Didn't they turn down £85m from Barcelona in the summer?

It said Wesley and Douglas Luiz have convinced him to join them in the Midlands. £80m deal and we’ve agreed not to go in for Barkley in the summer as they want him back. As I say, probably tosh.

I want that to be true, not because I think he's worth that much but because I can't see Luiz convincing him to join and then moving a few months later.

I'm happy to keep signing promising youngsters, but the next lot of first team players we should be looking to sign should be amazing, super dead good, brilliant types. Not so-so reasonable standard.

Richarlison is mainly a winger we don’t need on the left that cost them around £50m so probably £60m or so today. No way and no Ta.

Haaland, Barkley and Messi for me. Probably in the summer rather than in January. A loan striker to cover until Wesley is back will do for the next transfer window.
