I thought City was chasing Kyle Walker? Though at this point in time Levy would have increased the price to 65m for all we know

We all know what it is like dealing with Levy. I don't think he'll do business with Man City

2 of the top 7 videos when you search for him on youtube, are own goals.

Do you not get bored of being so negative?

He's good at getting good fees for outgoing players but I find it and hilarious how Spurs fans make out he is some sort of genius that other chairmen tremble at the thought of dealing with.

I'm sure Mike Ashley would have something to say about that genius tag Levy gets after what happened last August deadline day

I just thought it was amusing, don't you get bored of reading things into and criticising most everything I say?

Multiple sources are now stating we're very close to Danilo.

I was just reading this one! 

I wonder how this will affect our Sandro efforts. 

UOL Esporte in Brazil saying its almost done, too

Danilo and Sandro on the wings with Moses and Alonso as back ups. Now that is strong depth!

Assuming we get Sandro, which looks evermore unlikely be the day.

Yeah I know, I'm still hopeful. There's still a long time to go in the window, if we don't get Sandro then I'm sure we will get someone else.

If Conte could make Giaccherini look good, there's a high probability he'd make Danilo look great if not fantastic.

 

 

Hopefully this is almost a done deal

danilo is good pals with sandro. Maybe it will give Sandro a bit more incentive to come here. 

Happy with with danilo. He was great at porto, big chance to get back to those levels here.

Also Ex-Porto/Porto players very rarely disappoint us. You could argue Bosingwa but he won the CL with us

Well if UOL Esporte in Brazil says so....

I read the same thing a couple of weeks ago, they were trying to get Danilo to tempt his mate Sandro to stay at Juve. How true, who knows.

It's quite concerning to me how many people out on twitter saying this guy is rubbish. My blues experts give me the low down, is this guy decent or what? I see 15 Brazilian caps and hes 25.

I asked the same thing here awhile back, and was told that while at Porto, he was the one tipped to be world class between him and Sandro, but he just plateaued a little at Real.

I guess I should scroll back more often but man it takes so long!

Honestly from what I've seen of him since I asked that, I think he's a good player, but the situation at Real was not good for him, from the sounds of it.  Hopefully Conte gets him back to the form he had at Porto.
