Selling up mate. Those pesky charges? -:)Fuk we look like taking 600k to a Million a week off the wage bill, must be someone big coming in
Vin Jr or Mbappe maybe
I'm not so sure about that.Maybe Pep wants an even smaller squad for next season.
We're not going replace every player that leaves.
Yeh that's itSelling up mate. Those pesky charges? -:)
Using Ghosts the new Pep formationPep is going for no player football. Yessss.
Permanent, no idea if there’s a buy back. I would guess soloan or sold with buy- back?
like squad isnt already too small,we were lucky that rodri didnt get injured this seasonMaybe Pep wants an even smaller squad for next season.

Was it that small, weren’t we only one player off the maximum allowed ?like squad isnt already too small,we were lucky that rodri didnt get injured this season
If Pep does go in 2025 I'd rather go through this re-build now under his tutoring
Hear he may be coming to Manchester but not to us
I’ve been waiting for rumours KDB wants away now he’s won a treble… I think it’s unlikely but I wouldn’t of been surprised, I can see a lot of them (older players) thinking about bowing out at the top.
IMO both yes and no . . Though 99% yes.
I agree with everything you say except the suggestion that Stones & Akanji can do what Walker can do.
Yes, Pep has played both Stones and Akanji at RB but never to do the job that Walker did. They’re both better than Walker at stepping into midfield in possession phases, and they’ve been played at RB - not ‘over Walker’ as such but when that has been tactically appropriate to employ their particular talents. Fact is that neither of them can ever do what Walker does because they’ll never have his speed. When a fast as fuck RB has been required Pep has never looked beyond Walker.
My concern in this is that Walkers blistering pace has regularly nullified the threat posed by very fast left wingers, wingers fast enough to leave Stones and Akanji in their dust trail.
If Walker does go then, while Stones et al can fill his spot by playing as excellent RB’s with ability to transition into midfield roles with panache, I hope we get a blisteringly fast replacement in asap because IMO there’ll be times that we need one.
I'm still scarred.For the older blues remember Malcolm Allison's revolution? Regardless of what we had achieved we should have some limits
