Ive only ever seen him playing, impressively, at left back so no idea if he’s what we need in midfield.

I think that would be the main issue. Who would you drop?
It would be Southgate’s wet dream. A team full of full backs.

The few times I watched Man City they would numb the opposition to death by passing it around repeatedly until giving it to Zinchenko to shoot over the bar.

He’s an international midfielder.

Probably a case of getting rid of Sansom and Luiz leaving McGinn, Ramsey and Kamara having to fight for their places as it should be. Out of those three McGinn comes under the most scrutiny. Admittedly Kamara is yet to kick a ball for us and his presence will likely improve McGinn and Ramsey. 

Having 5 subs in a game will make a big difference in squads next season. I haven't seen the Zinchenko rumours yet where have they popped up?

What he says about Gerrard and Young is interesting and shows why we offered Young a new deal.



Carney doesn't strike me as a lad who is massively proud of being at Aston Villa.  He mentioned Gerrard being a quality player but doesn't come across as star struck with any of the other Villa players, although mentioned Ashley Young's encouragement. 

Zinchenko?  Yes please, good player, smart passer, energetic and good competition for the left back and central midfield spots.

They didnt have questions about their clubs. I thought they both came across as nice kids to be honest.

Don’t forget tho Steve that Carney isn’t like Jack & been here since he was 8/9, wasn’t he spirited in from Northampton about 14/15?? That’s why
I wouldn’t be remotely surprised if he was having his (& no doubt agents & family) head turned by progression available in Bundesliga.

Very true Gareth.  I hope he signs a new deal with us but just can't see it.

It is a really odd one, like you I hope he stays but wouldn’t be surprised if it was a done deal that he leaves this summer

He definitely is, there's no way we'd get him, he'd have so many better options.

Can’t find any links to Zinchenko and your probably right about his options, but 7 months ago i would of laughed if someone said we’d get Coutinhio.

Zinchenko send unlikely but would be an absolutely on-the-button signing. Really not expecting it, but would be hugely excited if it happened.
