It's Quiet 17 - Glory Thread

[LongsightM13]

Haha, I'm trying to visualise the boat that the collective brilliance of BM would procure on his behalf. Just the thought of it is making me chuckle but then I am easily amused.

i wouldnt.

De Jong is not the level of Bernardo Silva

Totally agree but unfortunately if a player's set on leaving we have to look at options. Barely any players are on his level in the market.

 

[Ghostofmerlin]

Is there any indication, at all, that Bernardo wants to leave at the moment? Seems pretty set, to me.

news is there for Bernie's replacement... Xavi and Barcelona are cult

 

[Gumzy97]

Fucks sake. Hopefully if at all we sell Bernardo it better be 100 mil. Anything less is offensive

Barca will come in for him if they get rid of Frenkie de Jong I think. The way they are moving this summer, it's like they don't care about the debt they are in

I’ll bare my arse in Woolworths window (obviously Woolworths was a thing when this phrase was coined) if Bernardo leaves this window.

Hopefully he’s distracted trying to find a club for the Portuguese tart based across the city.

Currently it's not their "debt" that is the problem:

Will Barcelona president Joan Laporta's summer spending gamble pay off?

Barcelona have spent big this summer despite £1bn of debt. It could be a masterstroke - or it could send the club into a downward spiral.

Their issue seems to remain freeing wages to meet La Liga "rules":

Barcelona still in trouble: Forced to sell players to be able to register signings

If Barcelona don't get their act together with player sales, they are going to have a problem in less than a month. The Blaugrana need to get rid of players in order to be able

But apparently we're corrupt and bend the rules at will.
Depends who's bullshit you want to believe

(Oops - forgot the real point, either way they can fck right off where Bernies concerned. Can't belive Mendes needs more money that desperately)

Careful mate. I once swore to my dads mate that I would bare my arse at Failsworth pole if City were relegated.

 

[crossbar]

Anything new on Cucurella? The only piece missing.

We won’t sell this summer imo

It’s probably a Starbucks now.

Cucurella to CITY

Bernardo news: Lucas Paquetá at Lyon is the new name being bandied about as a Bernardo replacement should Barca come up with €100 million for Silva.

Cucurella deal: No more news yet again. Grimaldo the latest of many names to crop us as an alternative.

11 days to the start of our season.

The window closes 11PM on 1st September.

I’ll post one of these most evenings around this time on this thread

You are welcome.

Please note this isn’t a summary of what is in the news, what I reckon or what will definitely happen. It’s only a summary of what is currently being discussed on the transfer forum

they are teasing us or do we walking away?

I see what you did there. There's probably no Woolies over by you anymore....well, they still have 'em in Mexico so you might have to trek over there :)

I’m in Mexico in November, shop front looks the perfect size for a bit of arse baring! Haha!

He looks like the local dealer so I’ll definitely be watching out for him :-)

Their marketing team posting that knowing it’ll boost their engagement. Who can blame them…
