    You saw how much crazy money Man U paid for Martial and he didnt even do what Mbappe has done. Seems crazy some club with pay 80+ m for a teenager but they will based on what we have seen. I hate this about modern football, really.

    Yes Kozello and Walter are part time players this year, they will only get better and play more. Kozello was targeted by AC Milan last summer.

    Has he committed his future to Nice yet or is his contract up this summer? I'd love to see O'L make a play for him if they let Tolisso go. Gonalons, Tousart, and Koziello would be one hell of a midfield.

    I find it hard to believe that Nice will lose many of their key players if any.. They'll be in the CL Preliminary/Qualifying stage at the very least which is more than what any other big team not already in the CL can promise them. Especially if it's another French team not named PSG or Monaco.

    Yeah I have no idea if Kozello is signed long term but something is telling me he isnt.

    Plea out of the season helped them in a way. No team is gonna pay big bucks for him now this summer.

    Koziello is the only one I question because I believe his contract is up at seasons end. Him to Lyon is a very long shot, but I'd try.

    Contract until: 30.06.2018 <---- Koziello's contract.

    Jardim is also a candidate to replace Wenger at Arsenal should he leave.

    Good win today. Mbappe with another. With PSG getting knocked out the CL I have think they will push for the league at all costs. Going to make for a good final 2 months.

    Moutinho's goal was amazing. Im assuming he started because he wont be starting this week.

    Pretty remarkable to consider just how deep you squad is. Mbappe may be what Martial was suppose to be.

    He also got forward quite a bit. Looked about 5 years younger today.

    Today's the day. Raggi will start in place of the suspended Glick and looks like Mbappe will start over Germain. The rest is their standard lineup. I dont make predictions but something tells me 2-2 draw sadly.

    I don't think Monaco's defense can keep a clean sheet against an attack like Man City's.

    Very worried about Raggi being out there. He was fine his first few years but now hes a liability. Youre right, no one expects a clean sheet especially since Mendy and Sidibe like to go forward. I hope they are instructed to stay back most of the time but I dont know if they can do it.

    Yeah, think this is just a bridge too far. Maybe see a 3-2 win but you'll likely just fall short IMO.

    B. Silva, Fabinho, Bakayoko, Lemar is still an outstanding midfield and I hope to see some magic from them. Get some balls in front for Falcao to chip in. Mbappe I wanna see run ragged all over the place and confuse their defense. When he tires from that just bring in Germain.

    BTW, this is not comparable to PSG-Barca. PSG and Barca have similar sized massive budgets and as good as Monaco is, Man City's budget is still much higher. They can throw waves off attacking players at you. Dirar, Germain, and Moutinho are the best of Monaco's attacking bench and thats decent but not close to City's level. Plus Guido Carrillo, another option is not available.

    Absolutely not comparable. Monaco's budget might be smaller than Burnley's in the Premiership and likely is.

    I think Monaco's budget is around 145-150m. Dont know what Burnley's is. PSG's is like 500m
