We need to make sure we are rolling players out of the squad as they come in. Gundogan and Aubameyang are foreign for premier league rules. We can only have 17 in total. I don't think we want to loan out established players because we have an excess. It becomes another Adeyabour scenario. Can you imagine if we ending up loaning out Toure or worse, not naming him in the squad but keeping him on the books?

Besiktas are lining up a move for Manchester City striker Wilfried Bony, according to reports in Turkey.
The 27-year-old arrived at City from Swansea in a £25m move in January 2015 but has endured a mixed first 18 months in Manchester.
Bony has started just 15 Premier League games for his new club, scoring six goals, and reports have suggested that Swansea are hoping to resign him this summer.
It has been suggested that the Ivorian may not fit in with new manager Pep Guardiola's plans and he could be one of the first out of the door in the shake-up.
And now, according to Turkish newspaper Takvim, Besiktas will offer him an escape route when the window opens.
Besiktas may be about to lose their star striker Mario Gomez this summer and they think Bony would be the perfect replacement, and could approach City about a potential loan move.

I am sure MCFC will have arranged it so there is no salary or bonus payoff either. Benefits both parties and he can have a new inter cake and seluk will not be allowed any where near East Manchester again.

I will not hide that this news made me sad a bit, even if he acted like a cunt the past two years, he is the best player I ever saw playing for us. I would have wanted him to stay and end his career here, but I think he made that not possible. The death of his brother affected him a lot, I understand that, but that cunt of a agent of him, always knew how to move against him.
At his prime he was like Whitney Houston. Untouchable.
and also a diva.

The club are classy to do this, I still see a tantrum as him and his agent digest the Memo:

Whats so bad about him? Hes flopped at real but that doesnt suddenly make him a terrible player, expecially if we can get him at a reasonable price and salary

My problem is your last phrase. No way Perez lets him go for a "reasonable" fee, even if Zidane doesnt fancy him

Should point out that James is playing in the Copa America whilst needing surgery, which he'll get after the tournament. So let's sign up another player not due to be fit until god knows when.

They let you work nearly everyday while needing a brain transplant so clearly some can rise above.
I'd have James. All day long. He's fantastic.

Class of 92. Rags produce youngsters my a*se.
Taggart now likely to cost the Rags 78 mill for their own 'Starlet' ! Yet the media try to sell it as a triumph for the Rags. Taggart's "Brainfart" ( i like that word) four years ago worsening the finances at the "Theatre of debt".

It's a common misconception that Pogba came through the rags academy. He didn't. They bought him.
