Toure arguably is still really fast, once he gets going he can't be stopped, like in the Kiev game he was pushing everyone around like they were toddlers.


His body could be, im not arguing that, but his mind looks completely switched off.

Looks like he doesnt want it at all. No influence in most of his games, literally no defensive work at all etc

Considering he earns over £220,000 a week, id get rid of him in a heartbeat.

has beens, Pep hates those. He's a flank player, he should have speed, at 33 you cant actually improve in that area. But again, looking at evra (also a black guy ^^)...dunno.
Toure costs too much, is becoming very moody and acts like without team the team is pure shit, when he was the shit one since his birthday cake trolling saga.
Navas is too one dimensional and too predictable. He sprints into channels then he either has a shit cross or a shit shot. Good for mid table, cant fight for title with this guy :lol:


As long as Pep buys him a big birthday cake, he'll stay

He shipped him out of barcelona when he was in his prime to play Sergio Busquets - a nomark at that time.
Was an epic win.

Same will happen here. Either promote a youngster or buy one

Yup I agree, you've been making a lot more sense recently, are you okay?

City will need at least 1, probably even 2 new wingers for Pep to implement his system.

Imo Pep will have a talk with Toure, then sell him / let him go.
Silva will play a more central position, maybe alongside De Bruyne as central (advanced) midfielders in front of one more defense-oriented guy like those Brazilians you have.
Sterling is capable of filling a winger's role under Pep, but Navas certainly isn't...

Who knows.. maybe even Nasri could make a decent backup for Silva/De Bruyne in a position more central, i.e. where he isn't out-paced by literally every single wing back in the league(s).

Yup, we will need 1-2 CBs a younger LB, a box-to-box midfielder a scoring winger(Reus) and a striker.

Gayá would be a good choice I think.

I'm pretty sure we'll get Gaya since Pep will want some Spanish players in the squad. Gaya is quite good, i like him a lot, we might be able to get him cheap too.

£36.6million release clause, signed last year in may. Upped from £13.6m

Not that cheap tho.
