Random Rumours

Not better than Sarr based on Strasbourg and especially afcon performances...

Sarr for me is just a very timid defender. I used to think he was very composed until attackers actually got in his face. Anselmino is the same way in my opinion.

This Honest bloke looks like he welcomes a physical/sprint duel with an attacker.

 
Aren't they all. Wasn't Angelo Gabriel a generational talent and wasn't Paez a Neymar in waiting.

I forgot about Angelo Gabriel. Had to look him up. Seems like he is doing OK at Al-Nassr with Ronaldo and co

 
Nice business. Would be better if this football club actually built a football team though...

Mostly on the sales side though. However, I'm a bit suspicious on the deals between some clubs as if they're scratching each other back for tackling the ffp. With that said, Chelsea haven't sold anyone to brighton, due some big money back from them unless there is some shady sh*t between the owners.

 
Lamine Camara from Monaco gaining interest.

Seems interesting. I’d not heard of him but after a quick Google seems he’s been linked with Liverpool and Real Madrid this summer.

Described as a physical player but at 5’8” not a big unit. A new Kante type player perhaps? Which would be great! And maybe a less expensive midfielder to replace Fernandez, assuming we do sell him to City.

 
Based on absolutely nothing but our previous dealings with Monaco we should never sign anyone from them.

Badiashille, Bakayoko, Disasi…

 
Lamine Camara ....Liverpool fans getting bent out of shape, they are fearing a Caicedo II.

Just a few days ago I wanted to write here that IMHO the best partner for Caicedo would not be someone like Wharton or Scott, but someone like the guy that Brentford signed this summer. Sangare?! He bossed the midfield in the first round against Spurs.

The thing is that the system that Alonso will use is basically a two-man midfield with wing-backs that will bomb forward and lots of people that will get into the penalty area. We saw it against Fulham and once again last night, when one wing-back was crossing, the other one was already in the penalty area. This is risky football because the wing-backs will always be up the pitch and we need people to defend as well, which is why I believe is better to have two Caicedos is midfield. Premier League is a monster league in terms of transition football, playing the way Alonso wants, but with Scott or Wharton there next to one defensive midfielder only, it really would be incredibly risky.

 
He can certainly finish from outside the box.

Looks tidy in possession and has an engine on him.

@just should be happy considering he's been raving about Mamadou Sangare.

Looks like Liverpool are also interested, which ignited the club to advance talks.

 
Matt Law:

Chelsea are interested in Monaco midfielder Lamine Camara. But, currently, there has been no bid for Enzo Fernandez or club-to-club contact from Manchester City. Chelsea's previous £120m asking price no longer applies (the expectation is it's now higher) and Chelsea will only consider a sale if they feel they can strengthen. Alex Scott and Zubamendi seen as v v difficulty (if not impossible) to do at this stage #cfc

His non-selection last night colours the situation.

 
Don't get it to be honest. If its a pi$$ing contest they are after, we should go use the Delap and Jackson money and buy Camara anyway. Then tell Pastore to get his arse in gear and get his player shifted cos he can't be guaranteed a place here going forwards.,

All just posturing at the moment. Currently City are desperate for a midfielder and need to cough up some money. If we sign someone first we are the ones that need to sell and lessen our bargaining chips. Leave it too late and we can’t get a replacement so we won’t sell. We don’t want to back down on the £120m deadline so City need to pay more.

Someone needs to break and I think we’re in the better position. Probably why City using dirty tactics to get Enzo and his agent to push the move and eventually pull an Isak.
