It's Quiet 18 - Wanna ring the bell?

[BAB.DAB]

Hardly a surprise though. All of those names have been doing the rounds for weeks as potential leavers.

Surprised timing

couldn’t be Alvarez could it , that would be a shock

That wouldn’t be just a shock it would be devastation

 

[bert38]

I asked that question in another thread. Whats the story with that ? No pictures or the annual video of returning to training in their designer clothes with their man bag

It’s an odd one for sure-I always think why am I watching this? But it’s a mental checking in seeing them back; signifies the new start. I’m guessing we must see something tomorrow when they fly out?

 

[Fordyboy46]

Must admit I find that a tad concerning…normally get the players walking in, handshakes, almost irrelevant but not seeing it is clearly deliberate by the club…

There's nothing from the club, not even announced the new coaching staff yet

 

[Gundogan's Moustache]

No that’s what he meant by half of the team 5 of them in total.

6 if you include Gundo who has already gone

Although a little bit exciting times, why do so many players want out?

Two camps I suspect. One seeing last year as the perfect end to their spell with us.

camp two slipped arses sulking about game time

 

[Cricket Blue]

Really didn't think after a treble win we would lose what seems to be 4-5 players, I find that a tad disappointing. Where is the desire from Mahrez, Walker and co to go again?. no way we will replace that 4-5 players. Looks like Palmer, Mcatee will be playing a lot more, question is are they good enough though?

 

[BAB.DAB]

Yeah I’d say so , we surely have prepared for Bernardo leaving , it’s a game he’s played now for close on 2 seasons, I’m surprised at Walker tbh , Munich of all places , feels like some of our players just feel like there work is done now winning the treble. The club have known about Bernardo like I say for a long while, so what are the real surprises to Pep ? Mahrez ? Who had a face like a slapped arse in Istanbul and on the bus parade ? Laporte ? I doubt it. Seems a bit odd that Pep is “surprised” tbh.

Timing, players might of been asked by Pep to sort out deals before returning pre season

 

[J_MCFC21]

I thought they were all supposed to be back at CFA yesterday and today and they fly out tomorrow. Looks like Laporte has been in Spain and those three in Ibiza- seems strange?

Think the picture of the 3 in Ibiza was over the weekend, not today.

 

[Sleeping_Easy]

Just been told we’ve big 85 mill for Valverde at Real Madrid , it should happen fast as they want funds for the winge bag at psg .

I'd take that all day long

If anyone been taken any notice the players mentioned on here there is no surprise! Unless people been living under a rock!

 

[Paulmcfc2703]

Surprised timing

On the first day back? Unless he's surprised the club haven't done anything in terms of replacements

 

[Fordyboy46]

We're going to be the net spend champions again, yippee

 

[BAB.DAB]

Or given the impression that they would be staying ?

Could of been

I raised that point last week and again now, I find this transfer window rather bewildering to be honest.
I sense a season of transition next season now. Feels like we are missing an opportunity though again to kick on a bit more.

Most of-them weren’t playing and feel they want to finish their careers somewhere less intense, where they can play out their final years.

 

[urban genie]

Although a little bit exciting times, why do so many players want out?

the 5 player mentioned are either on a last payday, homesick or not getting the minutes they want, happens at every club

 

[Academica]

This, so long as we have genuinely been doing our homework on how and who to replace them with.

I don’t want to hear a briefing about how City are “relaxed” about the situation.

Be much better to brief the press, that we are panicking like fuck.

People were saying last season was a transition year until after the world cup, turned out to be a transition half a season. Don’t think this will take much transitioning at all just a couple of months ,if that
