If Man City really want a player they will more than likely eventually go, why wouldn’t they? I hope he stays but if he wants to go then Tierney, who is by all accounts better than Robertson from what I have heard, would be a good replacement and the remainder of the silly Chilly money could buy Tielmans. My point is that if he goes, then these 2 would be a good swap. Better than Robertson by all accounts, says who exactly, can you name that credible source? One plays against Premiership and sometimes European standard players week in week out and the other plays against a bunch of nobody's, easy to look good in such lowly company. Do you think Robertson is better than Chilwell? Chilwell has lots of improvement in him and is a few years younger than Robertson. Tierney is a decent player no doubt but hardly comparible at this stage as he's not done anything bar the odd European match. Sell Chilwell for about 40m and pay 20m for a completely unproven Tierney for about 20m would be poor business. You'd be getting 20m to spend. We don't need 20m that much at the expense of selling a huge prospect like Chilwell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mate, I’m really not trying to start an argument here but you do seem a little bit confrontational and I am not sure why. All I said was I think that would be a good bit of business. I wasn’t talking about 40mill either so I am not sure where you got that from. I was talking about if he walked for silly money. To answer your questions, I heard TalkSPORT quoting the Robertson comparison and yes I do think Chilwell is better than Robertson. Let’s not drag this out anymore than it needs to as I suspect we are looking at a situation from 2 different viewpoints and as such there isn’t really a conversation here.

Robertson has a lot of flaws. But saying that a great LB. Great crosses. Alot of mistakes. Put him in the Leicester team and put chilwell in the liverpool team chilwell would look a million times better than Robertson. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chilwell is coming along very well but Robertson is miles better at crossing, he's a better passer, good at switching play, great at defending the back post and defending one-on-one, best LB in the league by a distance. 7 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would agree with you on that one to be honest. Most wont agree because chilly is one of our own. Top clubs will think they can get a bargain from little Leicester in there minds hence targeting chilly rather than someone like Robertson.

Ric Flair Posted 1 April 2019 Share Posted 1 April 2019 Barca want him now apparently. Give us £40m and Malcom and we have a deal. Lob the lot at Tielemans and play with 10 men, not arsed mate. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lambert09 Posted 3 April 2019 Share Posted 3 April 2019 Chillwell for Mahrez +10 mill I wonder if City would accept on offer of their money back for Mahrez ? He hasnt been bad, but he hasnt been great. I think theyd be tempted, although he wouldnt be. In usual circumstances his value would fall but with a possible quadruple I cant see it. But seriously, the thought of Riyad in this current team is mouthwatering Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
