Do people know how the full backs at City play? In possession they move into midfield and the 8s join the attacking line. They are the only team who play like that. So if you think of the roles a LB at City plays it's more like how we want our 8s to play. 

Pretty much this, City's attacking shape is usually a 2-3-5, with their full backs occupying a similar space where our 8's would occupy.

Already have. I put "that's that" at the end too--they'll definitely get the message!

Oh I see, I hadn't finished typing my message (pressed submit by mistake) and you've got salty because you think I shut "the debate" down or something. I'm really sorry about that.

If we were only allowed post about signings that are likely to happen then this thread would have about 400 less pages.  Lighten up lads, what else am I supposed to do when I'm meant to be working on a Tuesday in June other than hypothesise about Zinchenko possibly being the answer in midfield.

Which is exactly why we need a wish list thread!!

I know it wasn’t directed at me but surely he’s up in the 40-50m now ? , I do genuinely think hel be our next 100m player he’s that good 

Hopefully our next £100m player will eventually be one that we are buying, rather than selling. ;)

Better yet, one that is worth 100 mill but we refuse to sell, and he doesn't want to go either. 😎

A left sided attacking midfielder for a no mark Russian team, not the specialist box to box cm that we need. I will respectfully bow out now at the risk of annoying everybody. But this isnt the cm we need, although I'd love him as a guy who can cover several positions.

We can afford him and a dedicated box to box mid though. The money is there for both from an FFP perspective.  In terms of Zinchenko probably wanting to start every game, i guess that is where our issue would lie. 

Squad depth going to be key.

You'll have to tell Man City's own website then who describe him as a left sided attacking midfielder on his bio who was converted to left wing back.

He's not the CM we need, or even linked, and that's that as far as I'm concerned. If we could get him as a utility player, happy days, but that wont happen as he'll want to start.

I don’t think we’ll get him but in our system the CM’s play like lb/rb’s. In addition he’s a fantastic passer. He’s exactly the CM we need. Perfect system fit.
