It'd be very interesting to see who Carrick picks to be the two wide players.

We expect Cesco to be the number nine, but that means Cunha a little bit out of position, Mount could be out of position, and Bombo probably different to what he played at Brentford, but maybe on that right-hand side it's actually not too bad.

I guess you could put Diallo on the other side, but again, you got rid of Wingers because you were playing in the Amorim system and now you play in a different system where actually you could do with wide players.

So it'd be very interesting in terms of team selection as well what Carrick does.

Yeah, we're finalising the deal.

Now, he won't play this weekend with Crystal Palace.

He won't play again the derby, obviously, tomorrow.

But he could well be involved in the next game.

We said, I think, since all the injuries, the Guardiola and the Ruben Dias injury, that they were going to go and sign a centre-back, one, maybe even two defenders, maybe one centre-back and one a bit more versatile that can play in the full-back position, maybe a centre-back position.

Well, the first one

We've been marking here around the £20 million mark.

There's still a few bonuses, I think, to still sort out between the two clubs, which, as we said, on the face of it, you say this is a bargain for a player like him.

Considering he only has six months left on his current contract, you still pay for somebody who you could get for free in six-month time.

But, hey, you need him now.

Palace needs the money.

So it makes sense.

I think it makes sense from a Manchester City point of view.

From a Gueye point of view, it makes sense.

Yeah, of course, he's going to play now.

Ruben Diaz is going to come probably in a month or so.
