Genius move really, there are no black Frenchmen in Man City's senior squad. I look forward to never having to hear the phrase 'box crashing' ever again.

Fans losing their sh*t over not signing a player they hadnt heard of 2 days ago is pretty standard stuff nowadays unfortuantely.

Glad this twat is one count of the highest order. And losing him doesn’t affect sh*te we lost players 5x his ability and we are still CFC!!! f**k both Enzos

Would he have got in the side ahead of Caicedo & Lavia IF (and it’s a f**king huge if) both are fit and available?

I think you are letting your vendetta against the ownership blind your judgement Scott, this was 100% down to the poor management at Monaco who thought they could juggle the two deals. City didn't play anybody, they had no idea Monaco would make such a hash of it. In fact WE played City, they paid well over the odds for Enzo and even had to add a few million to get a player nobody else wanted, including us. It's not as if they poached our best player, he was a very expensive ok midfielder, Rogers will more than make up for him. We will survive easily until January with what we've got, and with the improvements we have already got I think we will be more competitive and certainly more enjoyable to watch than the last few seasons, and come January we will get who we want.

If we were going to sign anyone from Liverpool's 2019 'vintage' midfield, Henderson would probably have been my third choice. Also let's not forget this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DQSh6WGuQ7U Okay, I'm sold. Or we could just go and get Kanté?

Losing a world class player like this is fine only because Man City is not the same Man City anymore and more importantly, Xabi Alonso can make a better team without Enzo anyway.

You can admire his sentiment, but his arithmetic needs work !

This post sums it pretty well, we have a light fixture list ahead of us so the doom and gloom, oh no our season is over nonsense is so f**king grating... This ignores using a couple of the young midfielders when needed also, which we absolutely should be doing this season.

When aren't they? My blocked list is growing.

Sorry, I have to report this post for being too sensible, an oasis of reason (to mix a metaphor) in an ocean of typical bloody minded negativity.

Some pathetic panty wetting going on here just because we didnt buy one player, after we essentially made every change needed to the squad. We needed rid of certain players, other than one they all have gone and most for a good profit. We brought in the experienced defenders and keeper we desperately needed, we totally refreshed the attack into possibly the best front line in the league now. We have brought in midfielders, though we perhaps do need one more we now have an opportunity to play youth players in the cups without needing to "give 1st teamers game time". Some of the over the top posts on here are so laughable at times.

To the argument that we should have cancelled the Enzo sale once Camara fell through, this wasn't an option for a club that does as much player trading as we do. The last thing you would want is a reputation for welching on deals ...

I really hope he does well, I still believe there is a footballer in there...somewhere 😁

Good riddance, and we made a profit to. We have more than enough in midfield, can we stop being so dramatic.

In all the transfer window excitement, that one has gone very under the radar !

We won the CL with Ryan Bertrand at LW ffs I’m sure Alonso can last until January with what we have

Hard for me to get too bent out of shape at our failure to sign a player who I'd never heard of until yesterday evening. Instead I'm putting faith in Alonso to come up with a decent midfield out of the 6 specialist options he does have, plus the two right backs.

This is exactly how I see it. Enzo has talent but that is only part of the equation and his attitude and baggage is well shot off for a fee that quite simply is staggering. He is damaged goods and him going to City is almost poetic. I would imagine that Barco will be starting in midfield on quite a number of occasions and maybe just maybe he or indeed one of the academy players may just be the answer. We effectively will only being two central midfielders with the wide midfielders effectively being wing backs. We can still sign free agents and yes they are free agents for reason but there are some possibilities if it’s just about legs .

Incredible karma for Monaco, Balogun mugging them off has definitely made me feel better about Monaco screwing us over.

Emenalo wasn't given a shirt number and looks like he is going on loan to Celtic, but totally agree on the other two. I think the player who will really grasp the opportunity with both hands though is Barco.

There is a real opportunity here for one of our youth players to really step up until January. Landon Emenalo, Reggie Watson and Mahdi Nicoll-Jazuli are all still available and whilst extremely young, we’ve seen young players excel in our midfield over the years such as Josh McEachran, Billy Gilmore and more recently Reggie Walsh who would require a recall but I’d rather he got more minutes at Wigan. Obviously none of that is perfect but the doom and gloom and negativity is something us fans need to drive out of ourselves because we carry that into the stadium and it transfers into the team.

Quite likely that KDH will AGAIN have a better season than Enzo Fernandez ... Enzo really isn't any loss and it's hilarious seeing how apoplectic 90% of the City fans are at his signing LOL. Maresca tone deaf as usual ...

It is exhausting how overdramatic everyone is being.

City have got their man. They outbid everyone else😂, Very well done. I dont think he will be an overwhelming success, he certainly wasnt here.
