Exactly! Am amazed how many people on the transfer forum think they know more about what’s good for the club than Pep does. I can’t wait for the window to close we we can get the fuck on with it!
 
Maybe we’re going to go in last minute for dm cover as not to let any other bugger know who our target is and any chance to wait it out to create a bidding war. Turn a players head last minute so the club either sells or have a sulking player on their hands all season. Thats the old Madrid trick.
 
I could see perhaps an N'Zonzi or a Lemina or someone similar late on. Maybe Meyer?

Pjanic is not happening

While Guardiola might be polite and respectful in press conferences (got baited to criticise Klopp for hypocrisy today and responded by backing him) he's not dishonest, he says what he thinks, albeit respectfully.

"of course in the press conference we will defend you guys till the last day.. but here, here I will tell you the truth."

Presumably you heard this from Pep in the trailer?

So Yeah, I'm sure he's so so honest in press conferences and doesn't put on any facades of political correctness.

Get a grip.

That was certainly the case. If our heads are right I believe we can win the league again unless somebody has an amazing season as we have even more goals in us this term.
However, I don't think we can move to the next level in Europe without that pivotal CM signing. Ferno is getting on and I am not sure even at his best he has what it takes on those very big CL nights. Of course the tactics employed by our manager have also been questioned on these big occasions but I am not going down that path today thank you.

Don't rate either N'zonzi or Lamina as having the class to improve us could of course act as cover or be used as part of a change of tactics in big games
 
I just hope we dont get into any last day fiasco. The only benefit is SSN. and it showed in January when leaving it to the last day ends up in an unwanted bidding war between both clubs i urge the club IF we have identified a target go for it, there is no advantage in drip feeding it into the last day. Also the club we may engage with might need to go out and get a replacement

Honest question, if even Fern isn’t good enough for CL who do you think would be?

Hypothetically, not necessarily anyone we could or would sign but just which midfielders do you think are of the level required to turn us into potential CL winners?

Casemiro? Vidal? Kante?

Pjanic is definitely not happening for City, Pep doesn't lie - if he comes out in a pressy and says there is no interest then that is the case. Duplicity is something other coaches engage in
 
I love how Pep has exposed the Italian press for what they are class A bullshitters just like the rest.

Seems as though City's standing is such in the game now, our name is even being used in contract negotiations for plenty of top players.

Yeah because backing his players and outright lying about a transfer target are one and the same.
 
Txiki and our recruiting team must have been stung by "gazumped deals" for Alves, Sanchez and Jorginho. We openly worked on the deals for months and had apparent agreements, ignored when more attractive rival propositions were received.

We will try and keep potential transfers as secret as possible, (Italian club's seem particularly hard to deal with).

I would be very surprised if we are prepared to bid enough for Pjanic. If Juve do sell, they will want a competitive auction scenario to get the highest price. We don't engaged in auctions.
