Weird one this.

Atleast he got win CLs at RM while enjoying life on the bench. 

Man City doing what Chelsea did in mid 2000's........2 strong players for every position. Unfortunately we have not followed our own example for a good few years, hence we have sadly not challenged for the CL in recent years.

Apparently the fee agreed with Man City is 28 mil with addons. Basically the same fee we offered. Now Man City became a bigger club than us when it comes to player pulling power. f**k this sh*t!

Matt law claiming he was a conte target. Not sure if true. However, if like people have said, that danilo isn't anything special then we've dodged a bullet. Must be better rbs out there if the plan is to replace moses as no.1 right back.

We've done better than any of our rivals in cl to be fair. City have never made it to the semis or final yet.

Agreed, but remember how strong we were in the CL from 2005 - 2012 and arguably should have won it at least 3 times in that period. Compare that to recent years and we have not been close to winning it. Hence my point was, City doing what Chelsea did in mid 2000's........2 strong players for every position

Could he even be registered if we bought him? Not sure were we stand with our non homegrown players

Tibo, Willy, Eduardo; Luiz, Azpi, Rudiger; Alonso; Kante, Matic; Hazard, Pedro, Willian; Michy.

13 non HG players with (GC, Andreas, Moses, Cesc, Musonda, Baker, JCS/Tomori). Total 20 players with a RWB, LWB, a CM, and 2 STs to be bought/named in my opinion. so we did have the quota

Hope we have a good plan b then. Seems we may have far as our striker situation is (time will tell). With the two Brazil wing backs both missed out on we need a plan b. Injuries to Moses and/or Alonso and we are in real trouble. 

This one isn't over yet, no doubt Chelsea will be his first choice, in a World Cup year he will be desperate to play regularly, if Chelsea match City's bid he will choose us, I have a feeling we will get him

RWB was our weakest position last season and we've let a title rival sing 2 players for this position?!

Can someone explain why we've let this go?

No it was not. Our RWB was a lot better, then the left side. The enemey players barely could even put 1 cross for the whole game. Moses was perfect for the most of the season. He was always going back and did great job in attack as well.

We should get RWB, but Danilo is average in all.

Moses was playing with injury and people change the opinion for him just for the red card. It`s stupid to look just at 1 match, thats it. For the whole season he was best RWB in the league for me. And he was alone all season, no rotation, nothing. He was dead tired at the end, it was normal to make some mistakes.

Your feelings lately have been spot on!!  Here's to hoping you get this one correct too.

He was a liability for the second half of the season. Exploited every week, in fact I'd go as far as to say, off the top of my head, 75% of the goals we conceded after that Tottenham embarrassment came from Moses side. Teams acknowledged he was a below average winger and a poor defender.

Dont get me wrong he played the best football of his career last season but all in all that's not good enough for Chelsea. 

Alonso was leaps and bounds ahead of Moses. Ridiculous comment to say the left was the weaker side.

Yes it was. From Alonso side there was coming a lot more crosses, then on Moses side. Moses 1 on 1 is perfect. Almost no one can beat him in that situation. And no i can`t agree that literally he was a half-season wonder, like Costa for example.
There wasn`t such thing.
He has bad games, as anyone on the team, but he was 1 of the best for sure. At max he has 4 or 5 bad matches for the whole season. I can find a lot more bad matches for Hazard, Costa, Alonso and so on.
Also Moses have good passes and it`s a great link with Hazard and Pedro/Willy, and unlike Alonso, he is fast.
I get your opinion, it`s yours, to me Moses was great last season, one of the best players on the pitch and i totally disagree with you.

Correct me if I'm wrong but the rule is maximum 17 foreigners and maximum 8 HGs, and as many U21s as you want. Some of those in brackets are U21s,
