    The Centre Forward thread

    My mind has gone blank but who is Martinez? Ferran Torres I think would disappoint you, he's not an out and out striker. He's more of a versatile forward.

    Savinho

    I'd also happily get a Nusa or Williams. Maybe even Rayan.

    Savinho

    I agree about the price, it's a huge amount to pay for someone coming off a bad season. Would I pay it for Girona Savio? Yes. For City Savio? No. So I guess it comes down to how strongly we believe that we can get the earlier performances out of him.

    Pedro Neto

    Flexible, can play both sides but if people have concerns about the effectiveness of some of the other wise players we have looked at, he's quite similar.

    Savinho

    The question is less about what City think but can we get the Girona level of performance out of him and why was he unable to match that quality? Is it the change in leagues, is it the change of position from left to mainly right, is it the lack of emphasis on him (at Girona he was the key...

    Savinho

    His preference is Barcelona so most teams don't see the point. Maybe with the additions they have made there is less space for him so maybe there is the chance for someone else.

    Sancho is equally very talented but a waster who doesn't really care about his career to the extent he should.

    World Cup 2026: Mexico, USA and Canada

    No I'm saying if you watch them play, they try to play the short intricate passing game. We've seen them do it throughout this tourny. But when they came up against a superior side they fell well short. They still tried to play that way but Spain clamped them down. Numerous times they well...

    World Cup 2026: Mexico, USA and Canada

    Yeah. Did you not see them trying to play out of the back but Spain had them clamped down? It wasn't for a lack of trying, it was a lack of comparable ability. Thats why I called them budget Spain.

    That might all be true (a lot of assumptions made though) but regardless we are going to need another RB. I don't mind selling anyone truly but this seems a weird one unless we have someone better lined up.

    Djed Spence

    I don't really see the logic of selling when we will need to buy another RB for Porro's competition. I'm also not so sure why everyone is convinced he won't get any minutes at RB this season? Competition is good but also they offer quite different things so having different options for...

    3rd place play off game, the desire isn't there nor the pressure. Tbh England have more to prove so that might explain a difference in desire.

    Cristian Romero

    It was a Spanish overseas territory that Britain inhabited on the sly and then asserted ownership. Spain were contested this British claim to the island and Argentina once they separated from Spain inherited their claim.

    World Cup 2026: Mexico, USA and Canada

    I expect Spain to dominate the ball but as I said Budget Spain play the same style so they will at least try and fight for the domination. When they realise they can't win that way they will adapt and try something else.

    World Cup 2026: Mexico, USA and Canada

    Nope I don't think they are, or if they are they aren't what I consider good at it. All three also play too far forward to have the impact in the area im suggesting as well. Well I marvel at Messi for his combination of everything but it's that everything that makes him what he is. Watch him...

    World Cup 2026: Mexico, USA and Canada

    No I don't see those English players as being from that mould. You're looking at this the wrong way. Wharton for example is a great switch passer and has a great eye for a pass into the space behind the line but I'm talking about the mundane. The short pass guy who passes to one player then...

    World Cup 2026: Mexico, USA and Canada

    I'm not acknowledging them, I don't see them as the solution to the problem. None of them are aggregate high ball passers into and around the lines. I'm talking players in the mould of Xavi, Iniesta, Rui Costa etc. Players who pass and move between the lines. Men who will orchestrate the play...

    World Cup 2026: Mexico, USA and Canada

    Dominated by a possession midfield. Dominated once again again by a possessionally strong midfield, short passes and interplay galore. Not so much out played by possession but out gunned and that France side always looked to have another gear if they needed it. Just lost too. Stronger side...
