    You genuinely saying you wouldn’t accept that deal?!

    I mean, it was tongue and cheek from me. There is no chance we are signing him permanently. If they offered us that deal above, I’d bite their hand off. McAtee will be going for £20m plus if he’s sold.

    Definitely not, McAtee looks class, but he's a young guy who's not done it anywhere better than Sheffield United. Kyogo is proven class and vital for our squad, we'd be significantly weaker on the pitch losing Kyogo and gaining McAtee. There's no chance either way of a deal happening like that, unless it's a loan. As City will value McAtee higher and we'll value Kyogo more

    Would be a very good acquisition. Highly thought of by all accounts, I've no doubt he'd * it up here.

    Don't think it will happen though.

    Can’t see this happening but if we can get a loan to buy or just buy it was be brilliant.

    can I see it happening? Probably not and if it does it bet it’s a loan with no option to buy.

    I'd do Kyogo for McAtee straight up.

    We've been loosely linked with him again.

    Could maybe be Hatate's replacement.

    Thing is, we already have 2 relatively young CM'S competing for spots at the club, if we were to bring in another CM if Hatate does leave, I'd much prefer it to be a more experienced player.

    He came on off the bench for city last game. Can't see anything permanent happening and don't see the point of a loan

    Whilst i agree with your point, McAtee is quality.

    I wouldn't mind him coming in, he'd flourish in our team and under Rodgers.

    Just thinking if Hatate does leave, I'd realistically like us to bring in a different type of player to McAtee.

    He's a good player who'd improve under Rodgers, but I'd love us to bring in an experienced box to box midfielder that could play CDM when needed. Basically a Mousa Dembele at Spurs like midfielder, if you remember him :67:

    Wouldn't say no to McAtee if we can get him on a decent deal mind you, he's a good player.

    If Hatate leaves we need to replace his creativity and a player like McAtee would. Bringing in a box go box type wouldn't necessarily.

    I again agree, I think we need that player and Diawara from Lyon could be it. But I'd be bringing him in alongside a creative type...I still think we need more goals in the midfield. And I think Rodgers perhaps does, too..

    McAtee is a cracking player and would be the Matt O'Riley replacement.

    Premier league teams will offer McAteer much more money. I don't see this happening.
