Nico Gonzalez. A look at what the numbers say on City’s new #6 in the making
- How does he compare to Rodri and Fernandinho.
- Where does he excel
- Where does he fall short.
A thread
🚨🚨 Florentino Pérez: "You will NEVER guess what superstar I'm going for.
It's NOT Olise, NOT Haaland, NOT Kane, NOT Doku.
I won't say anything else now.
SEE YOU NEXT WEEK."
Newcastle’s Sandro Tonali is emerging as strong option for #ManCity if they cannot do a deal for Elliot Anderson, with Nottingham Forest wanting more than £100M.

Be interesting to see how RDZ’ Spurs evolves but they’ve arguably signed the two best on-ball defenders from last season.
Should be a very interesting team to watch, first-phase has always been big in RDZ sides.
Do think he will be successful at Spurs.
Do wonder what’s going to happen here.
They’ll have Romero, VDV, Van Hecke, Senesi and Danso all on the books. Aswell as an incredibly highly-rated Luka Vuskovic.
Definitely see Romero going this summer, be interesting what happens with Van De Ven.
🚨 Tottenham Hotspur submit bid to sign Jan Paul van Hecke from Brighton & Hove Albion. #THFC offer for 25yo centre-back below #BHAFC valuation so rejected, but talks continue in bid to strike agreement. Dutch int’l close to Roberto De Zerbi @TheAthleticFC https://t.co/kiZ9NDIURF
@DougieCritchley Two of the best build-up centre backs in the league should be very suited to RDZ ball. Do wonder what happens with VDV and Romero. Assume they’re likely to go, if VDV stays he could go left-back
🚨 EXCL: Manchester City submit opening offer to Nottingham Forest for Elliot Anderson. #MCFC bid rejected by #NFFC but pursuit ongoing. Club bosses spoke at UEFA dinner last week (no suggestion it was to negotiate deal). W/ @lauriewhitwell@TheAthleticFC https://t.co/ZCZbfRgZLY
🚨 Arsenal are following left-back Nathaniel Brown (22), with Bayern Munich also interested. He is expected to leave Eintracht Frankfurt this summer. 👋🇩🇪 [@SebSB]
@Anderson_MCI I think we need a combination of profiles to work in a post Rodri world. Without a 6 with sole responsibility. For example: Camara, Anderson, Wharton, Maza midfield has everything you’d need.
Rodri: "When a player is approaching the final stage of his contract, it's normal for names to be mentioned. I'm very calm, I know exactly where I stand, and I'll tell you that perhaps if there hadn't been a World Cup, things might be different now..." [via @BBCSport]
