He’s simply stating he’s made it from the slums if you like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sexbelowsound Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 No quotes or anything in the article. Clutching though, maybe. Also, on work permits. If you change employer does a work permit continue over? I would have thought there would be a review. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus, for 25m I'm not sure we can find a better player than post-lockdown Luiz. Really shit situation. True, but we might have to spent more than that. The £25 million should contribute to us spending more. Ultimately he helped us stay up and we've made a profit. Its not ideal but as a club we must have known this was the chance.

If there is any truth to this. It gives us money to sign one of the young midfielders I don;t know about which seem to be very highly rated on here?

Lerner's Driver Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 Big shame if he does go. Do City have any other fringe players that we could take? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe this is where the Weston Mckennie fits in Sometimes keeping a player for a year more makes alot of difference? I heard in a whatsapp group from a City fan that his brother said something indirectly in twitter. Have I missed something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No idea of his origins, but I read that as the boy from the slums has won - a comment on the core story of Douglas returning to Man Citeh. Adds up for me, but it's just an opinion.

KenjiOgiwara Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 He had a pretty 'meh' pre-covid campaign and a very good run in. BUT does anyone really think he's at the CL level already? It seems very strange to me. He still has a long way to go and most importantly show consistency. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
