It's Quiet Thread 15 - Txiki Blinders

Rather shit day, Pep confirming not only Bernardo actively looking to leave while Messi is now PSG bound and Kane is totally up to Levy unless we break the bank and pay 150m+

Bit of a clusterfuck all this we knew aguero was off end of season,yes I know you magically can’t click your fingers and sign a striker but ffs we probably should have been further down the road bringing someone in as I always like players in well before the season starts to get them settled into the club ..

Fandabedoze is our secret weapon this season.

Good shout Mat,to be fair he can’t have done himself any harm scoring in all three pre season games wonder what price he is to bag the first tomorrow..

 

[Damanino]

yes the way we let Kun go effectively in April making sure no new contract for him and being honest with him that a new striker is being brought in, Khaldoon then further confirming this later in May, then here we are pending on fucking Levy.
At least its first week of August not deadline day yet.

..plus 2-3 other unnamed players which he didn’t have to add

And Phil and Kev both injured.

Pep was in a right mood!

yep most likely, Jesus, Laporte Cancelo?

if its Cancelo or Laporte we still would need proper replacement for them, Jesus could be ok as we have Torres as long as a new striker really arrives.

It’s not that bad. We managed to land JG.

I am starting to come around to the idea that going with Jesus/Ferran/false9 for another season might not be the worst idea.

It worked well last season. If we can’t land our top target in Kane I would hold firm with what we have.

Tbh I am more worried about the disgruntled 3/4 players looking out. No wonder Bernie is a shadow of his former self.

Yeah that’s my other concern the 3-4 players looking out,if they want out get them moved on but not for buttons..

Awful press conference.

Kane stalemate
Foden and KDB out for a while
Messi a no-go
4 players want to leave.

Fucking hell Pep, I was buzzing this morning.

Apart from Phil/Kev the rest we already knew.

Hoping the injuries will mean someone steps up and makes a good fist of making the team, someone like Palmer or Edozie. Could also give Torres more time which is only going to help him

Yeah but I’d been distracted away from them by Grealish.

Erm to the Of topic thread? Always find distraction in that twisted place ;)

He told it like it is. Would you rather him lie?
I think a squad revamp was due, if these players do get us good offers we'll let them go and get replacements as necessary.

It's not all bad. Could be a Spurs fan browsing Bluemoon.

You've reminded me of this old quote:

Pep Guardiola in 2009:
Modern football sometimes makes me sad. Nowadays there can be more focus on big name signings rather than promoting youth and that makes me sad.

Why buy a striker for £50 million when there is one waiting in the youth team?

 

[Damanino]

I can accept another season with mixing between Jesus and false nine upfront with one condition, if we go balls deep for Haaland next season and not be shit scared of dealing with Raiola.

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

Let’s see what the embargoed section of the press conference brings.

Perfect time to get Haaland :)
