lol he isn't a top 20 player in the world, might not even be top 50. Just because you spend a ton of money on a player doesn't make him a galactico but I think you're right in that is what City are thinking.

i'm not a big fan of the signing. what really annoys me is that some italian team, likely juve, is going to get silva next year for a bargain
i think KdB is going to be like AdM was for man U, an absolute failure of a transfer that leads to the team losing 10M+ on the resell

It ill be really hard to recover any money from a player at that cost, if it doesn't work out... Man U took a pretty big hit on AdM and I think he's a much better player than KdB...

I think De Brunye will be good and will certainly allow City to keep Silva fresher.
However, bringing up midfield balance in the CL against the few elite squads City wants to challenge is the reason some people are a bit critical of the move.
My broad generalization would be that EPL sides seem caught in an arms race for trequartiste type attacking "midfielders" that flourish in the wide open EPL but don't have the positional discipline and defensive grittiness CL success demands when too many of them are played together.
Most don't think De Brunye will be a bust by any means but wonder if, say, a player like Kondogbia, would have helped City more in the CL than adding another Silva/Nasri type, no matter how skilled.

He's starting to get really underrated on this board.

No doubt. He was the best player in the Bundesliga last season. He is a very good player and will be excellent for City and should help them where they really want to be good, in the UCL.

Any more news on Berahino? I know WBA kept him out of the squad yesterday. Plenty of teams could use that added depth.

The same people would shite on City if it came out that City missed out on De Bruyne because City wanted to haggle over the fee.
