Yeah Rodri, Kovacic and Bruno, perm any two from three and i'd be happy.Bruno would be a good signing. Would work well as a double pivot and could finally get Rodri a rest.
I think Olmo is a decent player but wouldn't necessarily elevate us, but I'll trust Pep and Txiki on midfielder evaluation
Individuals win games.Individuals win games. Teams win trophies., not individual superstars.
Some fit a team some don’t. We only want thise that Pep wants. If he wants Guimaraes then he’s the one we should get, How has chasing superstars worked out for PSGIndividuals win games.
Team win trophies.
What do individual superstars do? Do they step on the field to look pretty and glittery? What role do they play?
The only way you could have known that is if you were Nina.You are Veruca Salt and I claim my £5.

I do not give a **** about the PSG case study. Madrid seems to be doing just great with its superstars but hey, why mention it right. PSG and MADRID are not Pep teams, so you referencing PSG doesn't really mean much. Musiala, Wirtz or Neves would take us up a notch in this team. Obviously not all superstars fit in other teams, and some fit and some do not, its football.How has chasing superstars worked out for PSG
I do think we need a world class creative midfielder. To me KDB appears to be on the waneI do not give a shit about the PSG case study.

Thats why I want us to sign Wirtz or Musiala. It would do us a lot of good!I do think we need a world class creative midfielder. To me KDB appears to be on the wane
Neither being for sale probably a kicker, we'll know by now who's willing to move and who aint.Wirtz or Musiala, seem like an appropriate signing when we start retiring KdB.
But with Foden taking the mantle, KdB's minutes can be easily managed for many many seasons.
So I can see why we don't really want to sign "pure 10s", when we have 2 of them, and next season we will likely be playing only 1 of them.
Currently they both play in our strongest 11, because of course they are our strongest players, but I dont expect this to be the norm next season.
Agree with all this. I know Nunes hasn't shown much, but I do believe there's a player in there, and midfielders tend to take a season or so to gel under PepYeah Rodri, Kovacic and Bruno, perm any two from three and i'd be happy.
I don't mind Olmo, he looks a good player when i've seen him but he's had injury problems.
I wonder if we're giving Nunes another season so that's why we're cooling our interest in Paqueta?
Foden, what we really need for next season is a Gundogan, is that Guimaraes I don’t know but if Pep thinks it is that’s good enough for me. If he thinks its somebody else that’s fine too.I do think we need a world class creative midfielder. To me KDB appears to be on the wane
If we were to sign one of Wirtz/Musala/Simons wouldn't that consign Phil to being out of the middleSame here, I want creativity. Paqueta is creative. Rodri and Bruno.G[Phillips replacement] would be playing double CDM and stepping in for Rodri if Rodri is out. Instead of Bruno I prefer Neves. The signing of Bruno does not affect Foden in anyway. I was hoping that we would be getting someone like Musiala/Wirtz/Xavi Simons to mitigate for our creativity, but as always we rarely go for superstars, exception to Haaland/Gvardiol. Now we are linked to Olmo because he has a RC and those are easier to deal with, damn I am pissed at us going for Olmo. Madrid will end up with all the SUPERSTARS at this rate!
Guimaraes is probably the closest player "stylistically" to Gundogan in the top leagues.Foden, what we really need for next season is a Gundogan, is that Guimaraes I don’t know but if Pep thinks it is that’s good enough for me. If he thinks its somebody else that’s fine too.
Musiala can play LW/LCM/CAM/RCM and RW and Wirtz can play CAM/RCM and RW. Phil will remain at his preferred CAM position.If we were to sign one of Wirtz/Musala/Simons wouldn't that consign Phil to being out of the middle
I would go with Musiala as he can play on the wing and also inside. For me I think Doku will fail he just makes are the wrong decisions consistently.If we were to sign one of Wirtz/Musala/Simons wouldn't that consign Phil to being out of the middle
Foden isn't as creative as KDB or David Silva was. let's just say that he's not up to that quality yet. Creativity is needed!Foden, what we really need for next season is a Gundogan, is that Guimaraes I don’t know but if Pep thinks it is that’s good enough for me. If he thinks its somebody else that’s fine too.

So? Less than anyone else less,a thousand times less than any fan. If you aren't trusting Pep who are you going to trust?Pep is human, he makes some mistakes.
Not infallible but if we do win 4 premier leagues in a row then he deserves to get whatever he wantsPep is human, he makes some mistakes.
