[@of_tcm]

I don't understand how this lot can be as washed as they are in the head. City basically had bought Savinho mid last season already so the only business they did is offload youngsters and sell Alvarez and bring in Gundo on a free. Like Pep said he was delulu enough to think they could carry through with the same set of legs but they obviously can't. So the money they'd have spent in summer is being spent now in January. Hopefully they can offload Walker and then get Cambiasso in and possibly see if they can get a 6/8 Hybrid because no use getting a proper 6 because what will they do when Rodri is back.

[@russellward4624]

Because they're still in this mentality that Alvarez left because he was always on the bench which is patently false. He started more games than everyone bar Rodri. He'll play on the wing and possibly as an 8 like Alvarez did last year. To think they're spending 60m on someone and won't play is absurd.

[@mahlatseseaga704]

We still need a rodri back up and a competent one cause Rodri coming off a long injury and playing him all games is a risk to that injury recurring. A 6 is needed to play cup games and rest Rodri at times. There are so many competitions

[@senti2175]

They are spending in Jan what they should have been spending last summer. I guess they weren't sure if Pep would stay so they left the spending for next manager.

Nothin better than bringing an Arsenal a Liverpool and a Chelsea to talk Man 👨🏻 City 🌃 Right⁉️🙄 I dropped everything I had goin 2 watch their take on City 🌃 transfers….My excitement was off the charts 📈‼️🙄

[@MCFCTheMadHatter]

If Pep continues with his current system, which defensively, has been an abject failure (31 goals conceded in last 17 games), we’re gonna as much help from Marmoush as possible to outscore our opponents from all the goals we conceded, compliments of Pep’s refusal to adapt. Cannot wait to see what Marmoush will be able to do in the City side. Striker, wing and who knows, maybe some creativity in the 10 perhaps? I just really pray we get some solid DM in bc as long as Pep continues with his absurdly high backline which gets no coverage from the MF, we will, on average have to score 3+ goals per game to win. And that is simply not sustainable over the remainder of the season which means, there is a real risk we don’t make top 4 and therefore no CL next season

[@CircumNet]

That’s why he’s bringing CB and defenders

[@Joker-et2je]

[@sta14rr]

He will play on the wing, but hud the edge of the 18 rather than the touch line. Kind of how the wide players used to play for Spain in 2008 -2012. That is when David Silva, Iniesta, would play the wings.

[@Kwami357]

Pep would change Marmoush style of play

[@MankaMafone]

Playing him behind haaland will be almost perfect. He can play right, inside, false 9 and cf. Peoole who say he doesn't fit dont understand what city does on attack. We keep possession while finding ways to break in. when teams defends tight we either pass quicky and find opportunities or break in with skills. Passing is crucial as well as technique. What a catch

[@ZaynWalad]

Steve Nicol, suprises me, as If he wasnt a coach.. they way City are playing now, is because of the players they have now. When Marmoush and other comes in, City will change. The Coach knows better than pundits

[@sivekonce8694]

There aren't a lot of too CDMs/DMs in the market, even less that are attainable in Jan. City will probably table it to the summer and fix other areas which will lessen their load for June, meaning they can just focus on the CM next summer.

[@ravensmedical9153]

My Man City needs a defensive midfielder and another #10 if we can get a good price. We can't just sit back and wait for Rodri coming off an ACL rupture. It's going to take him at least 12 months to get back in form after cruciate ligament reconstruction surgery (9+ months recovery + 3 months of physiotherapy to return to full team training).

Omar can do free Kicks at Messi-Level... even better than KDB. He can assist from corner Kicks. He scores with right foot and left foot. Headers not often. He can score into the Box with few space (!) also as from counter Attacke. He is aggressive in high pressing game and helps defense. But : he took in every game between 5 and 7 shots. I guess, at City, the World class teammates will not allow him such an impact. Maybe 1 Up to 3 ots Max. So, it is expectable, that his Scorers will go down in comparison to bundesliga. He scored last year as only striker 12 Goals in 34 bundesliga games but this year, with 2 strikers (Marmoush and Ekitike) he improved a lot. 15 Goals (2 pens) and 9 Assits. Can play striker, winger and behind striker. Kane for example has only 9 Goals (and 7 penaltys!) and 6 assits at a better Team like munic. Overall, 20 Goals and 14 Assits in 25 games are outstanding. If Pep and the team trust him and Support him, man City can benefit a lot from marmoush. Omar : we will miss you a lot ! All the best for you and thank You 4 All. Congrats to Man City.
