With Khaldoon saying he wants players in before this ridiculous CWC thing, maybe these are the first 2.
Cherki and Tijjani Reijnders (https://x.com/FabrizioRomano/status/1928725836846272615)
It does sound like we have solid targets and we will act quick to get them. I can't say that I know much about them though.
All I know is they play for Lyon and AC respectively :)
We need WB's...
Prob got too many CB's
And a few others ineffective that need to move on
Goals from midfield is what we need imo. Help take some of the burden off the big man. Doku and Savhino need to score more. Savhino in particular looks useless with his shooting. Can't let Foden off the hook either, what a shocking 12 months he's had.
Think we scored the 3rd most goals in the league last season? That's a big drop from previous seasons.
A fully fit and firing Phil would make a massive difference but it would be a big mistake to rely on that. We need a big signing after Kev's departure. No-one can replace him but we need someone to at least be able to take some of the responsibility for creation in midfield.
Gvardiol best position imo is left centre back, it improves his forward vision. So what we really need is a left back. Not had one since Kollywobbles was with us.

Wouldn't mind him. Pacey, skilful LB who contributes a fair few assists.
One down already for the start of next season FFS

Easy to forget savinho just turned 21.
Phil I think has suffered from burnout, and PG has kept him out for periods to protect him
The BBC seem confident on Reindeer

I'm going to call him Rudolf. Now all you have to do is make up a song.
Cherki Cherki cheep cheep I propose for the other guy whoever he is.
Looks like Jack could be up the road
Is it so good to finally hear that we are on the cusp of signing a true left full back. Ait-Nouri, now I hope the same happens for the right full back position.
If we want to be a top team in Europe and the world, we need an absolutely solid defence, with serious all out professional defenders which until now we haven't really had recently. They can be wrong attackers second, not first, as recently.
C'mon City. I'm really excited by these signings and this in January past.
