    Thinking about it to I wonder do Man City coaches really give a * that Roberts was unreal last night. Do u think Guardiola is in his office saying Roberts was amazing against Partick last night he is worth a shot in our team. Or am I being to harsh?

    Na you're right I think. Pep has admitted if he was at Barca or Bayern he'd have been sacked this season. The pressure is on him to really improve next year. He's not going to turn to Roberts for that when he has 100s of millions to spend on anyone he wants

    I love the way BR is handling the situation, giving maximum respect to City every time asked about it..

    It's such a professional way of doing things, 'he's a City player they paid a lot of money for him' etc..whilst saying he's still developing here, playing at a massive club.

    If anyone can swing it, it will be BR..

    My mindset is that he's gone and anything else would be a massive bonus.

    Keep everyone in the first team and sign Roberts permanently - I think that would be than enough for us to make an impact in Europe next year

    same...spend the budget on him...the money alone would be made back in shirt sales alone....having a No 7 like this bhoy is the way to go.

    Make it happen



    edit: Phil is a scat moncher though and call bullshit

    This is my thinking. I think it'd show a lack of ambition from Man City, particularly given their current situation, to throw Paddy into the fire and expect he's the answer. Not that he might not be.. but they'll make a huge splash this summer and get some highly over-priced European talent to add some excitement.

    I really hate that I'm getting my hopes up over the rumours about Paddy.

    Would love it if we got him on a permanent. Don't think we will get him, which is a shame as he'll just get loaned out again. With Sterling, Nolito, Sane, Navas on the wings there's zero chance he'll get his shot. Just sent to a Bournemouth et al on loan for the next few seasons.

    Could Lawwell's boy play a factor?

    I haven't a clue but we've had a decent relationship with them for a few year's now..

    Clutching at straw's probably but I'm desperate for him to come back..

    Feel like we've been robbed of the real Paddy for much of this season due to injury, which is why it's even harder to take watching him come to life like this 'on the way out'..

    Whatever happens he's been a joy to watch overall. Supremely gifted young footballer that get's you on the edge or off your seat everytime he touches the ball..

    He should ask Denayer about what it's like too leave Celtic after a loan he was farmed out too Galatasaray and now Sunderland

    What is PLs son jobs down there again? Also we should recuperate most of it if Van Dijk does move on from Southampton.

    Here's a wee daft one..

    Van Dijk signs for Man City for 55 mill. Our 10% to Southampton get's written off and we only have to pay 1.3 in the sweetener for Paddy :fear:

    Good call,surely that would justify going all out to sign Paddy.
