Anyone think we might have a chance to sign him in the twilight of his career? If I’m right he turns 33 at the end of the month so I’d imagine City would be looking to off-load him. I wasn’t initially a fan but he’s grown on me. If there’s an elephant in the room it’s that one of his major attributes is speed and as we all know that falls off a cliff into your 30’s but maybe that could work in our favour price and salary wise.

I haven’t googled him to see if he’s a Londoner but he sounds South.

 


The beatings will stop when morale improves.

I haven't availed of 'Google' either but I know that he hails from Sheffield.
Harry Redknapp signed Walker for Tottenham from Sheff Utd and he joined as part of a joint-deal with Kyle Naughton however I cannot recall the financial details of the transfers.
He has supported Sheff Utd from a boy and used to go to Bramall Lane with his grandad.

Don't think this is going to happen. He is at the top of his game at the moment and a bit like Joel Ward for us is going to get another season at least

What about Benzama? We could do with a good striker.

When he leaves City, his intention is to re-join Sheffield United

he will be on more than Wilf, so even if we he was interested in coming, which i strongly doubt, we couldn't afford him.

Other than his pace i've always considered him quite a limited player. When his pace goes what will he have left?

Crickey. I don’t think we should necessarily think that a 33 year old Kyle Walker is totally out of our league!

Talk about setting the bar for who we could potentially buy at ankle height. No doubt he’ll end up at a team like Villa who have more ambition.

Why would Walker be remotely interested in signing for us?

Because at 33 his speed and value are about to fall off a cliff and he may have a bit of foresight to realise that. I’d be very surprised if he has another season or two at the top level.

A good guess,South Sheffield. As guesses go not quite blade sharp.

Hmmm, he might still be the best right back in the league.

Will win 1 trophy, but may win the treble

33 or not, if you think he is in our league you need to give your head a wobble
