Speculation The hysterical and annoying, but traditional, totally unfounded winter 2020/21 rumours thread

He's refused to sign a contract because he realised that you stew at City for years before getting a chance.

See Dewsbury-Hall age 23 and still 'one for the future'.

So we're stuffed. He is a real talent.

Is he? How many players like this have we let go, only to see them turn into world beaters? None?

If he's good enough we will do what we can to keep him. If we're not arsed about chasing him and offering him a good deal, he can't be all that.

What about Doodoo, wasn't he the next amazing talent?

Brendan Rodgers believes Filip Benkovic returning to Celtic 'is a great move'

The 23-year-old Croat arrived to much fanfare when the Irishman brought him to Glasgow in 2018.

Can't get in at Cardiff but could save the day in that farcical league.

I look silly?! I'm not the one that forgot Aman Verma. No wonder the TB awards were such a shambles.

I thought I'd heard about that Tavares lad. Done some thinking it's actually Jim Tavare whose name I recognised. Bloody ages since I've heard of him n all. Had a cello or double bass or similar? If the Tavares lads that good why are we only hearing he's good now? Has someone just noticed the Nani link?

It only took me a minute to work out how good he is.

Jim Tavare or Benkovic?

Edit - why the **** my phone autocorrects Benkovic to genocide.

3 and a half year remaining on his contract

If that's right we must have extended it. It was a five year contract, in the summer of 2018.

More likely the person who wrote the article thinks this is 2020...

Lyon interested in Slimani and strong chance we'd let him leave for free, with only 6 months of his contract remaining - for those too lazy to click
