I am certain Pep wanted Aubamepingpong from Dortmund and also a wing back, on the left or right and certain he will try to get them in the january window.
Things with the Gabon chap was weird as fuck. City were in advanced talks then nothing and we did not bring anyone there either. Well, Jesus is a different type of player, while Moreno is still a mistery.
Our balance this summer is not good, if we look just at transfers. We paid what? I say 70 mil + addons that will bring the money to something like 150. We sold what? Dzeko, hopefully for 20 mil. What about the rest?
Aubademenang is from Gabon.
I agree, we took to much on selling our players and we can see that now. I still have no idea how/if Inter is still paying for Jovetic.
Who's the Gabon chap?
Why are you certain we were in for Aubameyang? Genuine question.

I think Joe was an exception because of his unusually high wages.
Would be better to sell but if we can't then loan is next best option.

It is a great signing for Stoke, especially for the money. He was brilliant for Swansea, and he'll be in a similar situation at Stoke. Certainly much better than the current strikers at Stoke

That's fine but Bony has hardly played for a season and half and now they say he is a 'brilliant' acquisition. Just seems over the top, especially as they mentioned Hughes and not Stoke.

For the record, I don't think anything about Hughes has ever been and ever will be brillant
