Bit of a shame the way his time has just petered out for us. He's been a great player for us. There's been a big rebuild with players aprund the 30 mark and above leaving with younger replacements coming in.

Hope we've got a good fee for him and he goes well if he decides to go there.
 
He could easily play for another top team but can’t fault him for taking that move. Especially if no one was actually coming in for him which I find amazing. Think it goes to show what a mess clubs like Madrid, Barca, Juve etc have become
 
Much rather he went there then to a domestic rival.

Fabulous player but just think it’s come to a natural end. Pep loves defenders now who excel at defending but can pass on top of it (aside from Stones who he just loves anyway but is immense all-round) and I think Laporte is passing first then defending after.

Too many high profile errors IMO. He had his run of games in 21/22 after the Dias-Stones partnership the season before and didn’t take his chance. Since then it feels like he’s been on the peripheral and he’s too good for that. Loved watching him when he first came, genuine Rolls Royce of a player.

One thing that’s good, though, is that he’s not seen his arse (overtly) like a certain Portuguese fullback did which is always a plus. He’s been positive in posts online and actively supporting the team and his teammates. As he should.

Wish him all the luck in the world.
 
Good luck to Ayme. Has been brilliant for us.
Only a matter of time before Saudis force themselves into the CL.
With the calibre of players signing for them I can see them being v competitive.
No doubt they will be after signing top management including Pep and that’s a worry.
The money on offer is absurd.
