Palmer is closer to KDB than Wirtz is but I suppose we won't swallow our pride

You have no idea how jealous I am that Chelsea signed Geovany Quenda
He was the one, man
Well, who's next up?

Ballstriking can be such an invaluable asset at the elite level
Julián Alvarez can spend 99% of the match chasing his first touch or misplacing passes and spend the other 1% celebrating his goal from 25 yards

For the record, De Bruyne should never be disrespected either
He is one of the best midfielders to ever grace the game, far more complete than some of the common favourites

Reviewing my priorities for defenders, if Nathan Aké can be one of the world's best without a very broad upper body then there are more important things to search for

Do City fans really want the academy graduates to do well?

side-note: İlkay Gündoğan's roles in his first City spell indicates Pep's love for generalists (and why they are so valuable)
We could've signed a tempo-controlling second phase player and another player who'll box-crash & combine higher up the pitch
or, we could just sign one guy for that

Essentially, consider all the possible advantages and disadvantages a player might bring rather than just how they contribute in The Big Moment™

Just random thoughts but people look at football too reductively with regards to The Big Moment™
That red card, that 1v1, that misplaced pass
All important events but an innocuous turnover of possession in midfield can completely shift the flow and game-state of the match

Still a very good footballer in there but looks like this'll be Jack Grealish's last year at City and can't say I'm particularly unhappy at the prospect
Pep's comments, reports about his attitude in and outside of the club...
Not a very difficult player to replace either

Eventually the shadows of Jamal Musiala and Florian Wirtz will no longer be sustainable for City to chase, on that account, I present Alejandro Baena

Not just our current team but the current situation of football calls for him
Physicality is king
Physicality reigns supreme
Ball-carrying, duel-winning, long strides gliding across both ends of the pitch; sound familiar?

Pep Guardiola also knew that he needed another method of progressing the ball in alignment with the 'meta' of football
In accordance, he picked up the starstruck young Belgian winger from Stade Rennais by the name of Jérémy Doku, supposed to be the best 1v1 dribbler in the world

Football has reached a point where tactics are no longer evolving
Manchester City won the treble and many people, rightly so, credited the use of John Stones and in part, Rico Lewis
However, these ideas had already been developed by previous managers such as Johan Cruyff (a major influence on Pep)

Contrastingly, I'd argue that the main area of concern should be on the Manchester United staff
Previously, the club have already shown themselves as incapable of making logical transfers and the situation hasn't shown to be improving much under the new ownership of Jim Ratcliffe

Ruben Amorim is clearly a good coach, however, it's also clear the current Manchester United squad is not perfectly suited to his requirements
Marcus Rashford, attitude problems there may well be, is a superb footballer who would at the very least be of high short-term value to most coaches
