I'll go with the Bernie departure on this.

if he has to go then hopefully Saudi over PSG.

Engine room = Bernardo??

Hope we haven’t lost an important board member. We have been managed so well since the take over & our management doesn’t get the credit it deserves

 

[richards30]

Really wish we would move for Frenkie or Caicedo

Along with MacAllister,he would have been the most direct replacement for Gundo.

As it is....we have gone for similar,but with slightly more aggression as opposed to silkiness,in Kovacic.

Funny, I think he and Kovacic are more alike than either is like Gundo.

As you say:

I suspect that there's more than a handful of 'interesting' characters within the PL engine room who will no doubt feel vindicated with the list of charges brought!

I do not subscribe to the "we are moving too slow" hysteria. That said, players on holiday seems an unsatisfactory excuse in my opinion. Because byhere is the obvious question one can ask, are the players for other teams "who are strengthening whil moving out their surplus players" not on holidays? Since they are too. It's unconvincing to say we are moving slow because of holidays that don't seem to affect other teams.

We are moving slow because we have different constraints than other teams. Sounds a better answer to me.

Of course. The whole transfer forum is its own little ecosystem of cliches and it's rare that any of them hold up to even the slightest scrutiny. One of my favourites is the classic "we'll announce it at 6pm for maximum exposure."

Truth be told, I just wanted to get a pop in at the mouthbreathers who moan about Txiki every year. It's like some of them think there are three employees at the club.

If Bernie goes to Saudi then it was never about lifestyle, it was always about money

 

[better dead than red]

Barney McKeown from Portadown?

The Simpon's clip he posted is a take off of Mr. Scott from Star Trek. Mr. Scott was actually a Scot.

We are signing SCOTT MCTOMINAY! Even better, yeah? :-)

If Bernie goes to Saudi then it was never about lifestyle, it was always about money

If it was simply about money then he'd have signed an improved deal years ago.

It's also worth pointing out that nobody on here has a fucking clue what he wants in life. People have been banging on for years about everything from him wanting to be closer to Portugal, to his gold digging wife, like they have any idea whatsoever.

The bottom line is this:

1. It's none of our fucking business.

2. There are countless better places to live than Manchester, whether they're near Portugal or not.

3. What he decides to do with his career from this point on shouldn't influence his standing amongst City fans.

I get so fucking sick and tired of these desperate attempts to vilify every player who wants to leave us before they're past their peak.

Not sure can say tgat, if Saudis offering same as psg then he goes psg.
Saudi money is a game changer

By most accounts, he's wanted out for a couple of years. The Saudi money has only been an option for the past few months. I think it's wrong to suggest it's never been about lifestyle.

Tolmie! That cheating, no-good two-tmer!!

 

[Brewster's millions]

If Bernie goes to Saudi then it was never about lifestyle, it was always about money

If, and it’s still a big if, he leaves for Saudi, then it’s hard to say that it wouldn’t be about the about money.

But could you blame somebody who has been here six years, and won everything, for leaving if they are offered five, six times what they are currently earning? And when we get the money we want for him as well?

Doesn’t sound like a bad deal to me.
