To be honest, it’s the best explanation out there as to why he hasn’t made up his mind yet. He’s holding off as long as he can to see if Barca can register him or not. Feel like that’s his first choice, but it remains unclear whether they can make it happen.

We should not wait to see can they register him or not, we should move on and find replacement for him.
 
Gundog has been immense for us but as the best club in Europe, we have to keep on top of recruitment. He’s 33 now and however great he has been, we need to keep a sensible turnover & let him go when he has a good offer. We’ve done that with the signing of 28 year old Kovacic together with bringing back McAtee
 
If Gundo's priority is to go to Barça, I no longer want him to stay.
We should move on and push Rice hard.

Yeah we shouldn’t be a place to fall back on if his move to Barcelona doesn’t go through. He’s made his mind up let him go and go into the market for a new number 8. To be fair we need to get some of the older players out In case we get a transfer ban from the charges.

Gundo can do what he wants and take the time he needs to sort out his next contract. Jesus the man single handily won us an fa cup and played a role in the league and champions league whilst also not forgetting the Villa game last season. So yea if we happen to miss out on rice because of departures then so be it. Jeepers where has the gratitude gone?

The flip side, if rice won’t wait a few weeks to see if city want him then he is an idiot and we don’t need idiots.

Kova is a much needed body in midfield for a very long season. The price is just ridiculous for such an accomplished player.

Some players need to leave no matter how much we want them to stay. City have this situation more than kovared-:)

They will need a player similar to the one they lose. If city are interested in rice and West Ham behave like dicks then we won’t sell them Phillips. I guess a few conversations will be had over the next few weeks. If rice can’t wait it’s his loss. Arsenal are not a bad alternative right now.
 
I think we will add 3 or 4 more players to the size of the squad for next season, because of the number of games next season and the early start with the community shield and super cup then the club world cup, it's going to be crazy with a small squad,
