Apparently according to Talksport, Onana from Man U has done his hamstring & will miss their American tour.

Looks like the Emi sale could be on...

I would say it's less likely as they've got no chance of shifting that clown now.

Unless he’s chucked his rattle and been left at home. Being told he’s surplus to requirements. I think they really want Emi

Grealish pissed-up at Oasis last night, footage of him telling a City fan how much he loves the club and that Citeh fans are the best. Such a lovely fella!

I'm sure that's a bad thing for some reason.

Douglas Luiz to West Ham doing the rounds.  That would be a shame.

He's being linked to multiple PL clubs, hoping he returns though.
Not sure we need Dougie, especially compared to other positions we need to bolster. But I have a massive soft spot for him and all rationality would go out the window if there was a chance of getting him back. VAMOS!!

There probably are higher priorities to address but expecting Rogers and Tielemans to play another 50+ games each next season is too much. Luiz competes with Tielemans but also enables Tielemans to play at 10 more often instead of Rogers or Rogers on the left. He's a proven fit for Emery. The likes of Barkley might be ok for the Europa but we would know about it pretty quickly if he was playing regularly for us in the PL.

We will be fairly sick if Luiz burns it up at another PL team, same for Grealish, as I think they both come back if we can go for them.

Dave could be a replacement for SJM if we sold him.

We ain’t worried about your knees Dave. Do you have a giant backside and can you do the SJM bum turn.

Is it Fenerbache that had Zaniolo too, and Oshimen? If not there's several Turkish teams that seem to end up with decent players in some kind of half way house situation.

Was Dendoncker on any of the pre season returnees pics? He wasn’t in the Belgium squad was he?

Zaniolo and Osimhen were at Galatasaray, the big three Turkish teams all seem to be spending a bit though.
