I look at what Guardiola requires from a lb in his system, look at the history of both Delph and Barry playing there for City, the position he played before city bought him and the position he's played over 50+ games internationally at.

He's a good left back in a system that City employ, he's not as good as City require in cm as a starter.

Would he be our best lb, currently no imo, would he be a mile better than anything we have in that role in mid, yup. Would winks - nope.

And CM is a more important position in almost any system than fullback.

Hes not as good as De Bruyne, Rodri or Silva. He will probably never be. Theres no shame in that. Theres a world of players who arent, but would still be great for us.
 
I like the lad, im not saying hes bad, I just think from what ive seen of Winks, they could both do a similar job.

Fitness and injury is my only concern with both.

Zinchenko much less concern, a few knocks, corona I think but no repeated injury, the ankle for me with winks is a huge concern - repeated knocks on it and the player basically saying he has to manage it - also explains his fall from favour partially

Pretty much mate his best position just so happens to be in a team with the worlds best already there.

I'm not defending signing top 6 castoffs apparoach, but I don't think we do it as a focus like you are making out. Since 2013/14, I think we have signed like 14 but with 4 of them loan deals.

Lukaku and Barry were excellent for us and they came from top 6.

I think the approach of buying lots from PL is the issue, not just top 6. As we have signed a lot from lower half, relegated teams as well, often for big money.
Yes tend to agree we need hungry players looming to improve not players who see us as a step down from a bigger team, its a bad combination and usually means they lack the drive and hunger because they can coast
 

Everton reach Winks impasse?​

Everton are trying to reach an agreement with Harry Winks but talks have reached an impasse according to the i paper's Sam Cunningham.
Talks for Winks are thought to have reached a stumbling block, with Everton preferring a season-long loan while Tottenham are pushing for a permanent transfer in the region of £20m.
Everton are now said to be pursuing other targets with the club unlikely to be able to spend £20m on one player until the end of the financial year or until a player is sold.

Reached an impasse after realising he's utter dog plop

Excellent news, Baldy Dan saving us from ourselves.
