Bruno Guimaraes

[Goro]

He’s a no nonsense passionate baller
Would love to see him join

 

[Mancini’s Pastilles]

Nunes will prove to be a good buy,, Phillips we’ll get £20 mill back, so nowhere near £100 mill.

And just who is going to give us 20million for phillips

Don’t know, don’t care. There’s still a decent player in there,certainly a £20 mill player somebody will think can get him back to where he was.

 

[bell_mcfc]

I just can’t see us spending 100m on Bruno

 

[chris85mcfc]

No thanks no where near good enough

Think Leeds was our only hope and that looks slim now.

Even then it would probably be a loan with an obligation if they stayed up and he played x amount of games.

No ones going to offer us straight 20 million for him.

Could see him going somewhere like Everton. Slightly different but like Cancelo in the fact clubs know we don’t want the player so they will get a favourable deal. And probably a loan anyway.

He was a good player,a player Pep thought had enough talent to improve on and make a City player, his confidence is shot. Any decent manager should have enough belief they can get that £40 mill player back. £20 mill is a bit of a gamble but sure there will be some team willing to take it.

One of the promoted teams possibly?

I suspect that precious few clubs now have the kind of money needed to take such a gamble. It’s also a salutary lesson for us. Unless we are completely convinced that the player has a future at the club (Nunes, Gomez, etc.), then we should sell them immediately. Phillips has put a hefty dent in the idea that just being around great players and learning from Guardiola will improve the player and raise their value.

He’s got similar stats to Rodri. Better in some stats as well, such as interceptions and duels won. So he’d be a good partner to Rodri in midfield.

 

[SambaStyle]

Top top player. Would give Rodri a lot of rest or complement him in Kovacic's role.

Probably the best player City could sign this summer.

Was speaking to a Forest fan, he said he'd take him for £20 mill

If I was a betting man, I'd have money on Phillips being a board buy and not a Pep buy. He got 3 league starts. Now his confidence and match fitness both need to massaged back to life. I reckon he'll be a loan with an option unless West Ham fancy him in the summer.

Zero and I mean zero chance of anyone going over Pep's head on a transfer.

Phillips looked decent at Leeds, had some good performances internationally and came with rave reviews from Bielsa who Pep treats like the God of football. It really isn't difficult to see why he passed a number of the criteria that every transfer will be judged on before we sign them.

It just hasn't worked out. It happens sometimes, thankfully for us we make money on nearly every player we sell and can absorb losses like we expect to take on Phillips better than any other club.

I agree that there is no chance of a player being bought who Pep has said no to. But some are bought where Pep is not the prime instigator or is pressing for.
He said himself that Doku was mainly bought by Txiki and he did not have much knowledge himself.

 

[Mayor West]

I watched the Newcastle game today. Guimaraes was brilliant again, would love it if we signed him

 

[richards30]

We should absolutely do this, especially if Pep wants it.

 

[kingn6]

West Ham paid a decent price and also invested a large amount of game time(and likely some game points dropped) on Paqueta until he got used to PL and started to perform. If we did it last season we would not be a title contender.

We carried Kalvin through the season. Paqueta would have been much much better even if had taken some time to gel. Kalvin is the worst signing we have made since Eike Immel

 

[blueballs84]

The best Bruno at United.
