I think if we have a big drop off in the future (and that's a big if). The blame has to be laid on the board. A part of me believes that Pep's genius (and him being the best manager of all time) has covered some of the flaws in our recruitment.

You are already blaming the board for a drop off if it happens in the future. Goodness me.

Did we get Kovacic yet?


Please anyone find me ever saying a deal for Bellingham was done, that would also be grand?

Even said Rice was the back-up before Ornstein reported our moves.

Gvardiol, let's see...

City clearly had a valuation and didn't want to match Arsenal's offer.

Honestly mate I wouldn't even bother explaining yourself to anyone.

You know the one's who have got your back on here and the one's who respect what you say and do.

You've said transfers can change in a heartbeat and we all know how quick saying one thing turns out to be the opposite sometimes, it's just some on here take it to heart instead of taking things with an open mind.

Looking forward to your next video ;)

Eh? Pep is a huge part of the recruitment team. Txiki and co don’t go after and pull the plug on transfers without his knowledge and buy-in.

Pep might disagree at times with the ‘value’ of a deal and prefer to pay more than the rest of the team but he doesn’t come back for Day 1 of preseason and see who Txiki has got for him.
 
Might get some flak for this but, Kovacic and Viega on the back of a treble is underwhelming to me. Nothing wrong with them, but I feel Kova will be a squad player and Viega will have limited games until he learns the system. After losing Gundo we needed a bit of a star midfield signing imo.
 
Ederson, Dias, Stones, Ake, Akanji, Walker, Lewis, Rodri, Kovacic, Phillips, KDB, Grealish, Foden, Alvarez, Haaland.
I'll take that spine, thank you very much.
Add in a teaspoon of McAtee, Bobb, Doyle and Palmer and mix to a heady brew.

I suspect you know very little about either, certainly Viega.
Some people are underwhelmed most years.

Anyone who has been around this forum long enough will know you know your stuff.

Ignore any negativity you get mate.
