Savinho extends his contract to 2031

Divides opinion doesn’t he - no doubt he has talent most Brazilians do - he’s young and has scope to improve - but you feel could go either way this - if you was being positive you would compare Doku - has come on massively lately and hope Savinho can do the same
 
I think it could go either way with him and we should all get behind him figuring out how to shoot.

I do wonder what he’s on now, because depending on how it goes from here, it would likely be very difficult to shift a one goal per season forward on inflated wages.

What happened to proving yourself before being rewarded with a new deal? Doesn’t really send the right message imo.

Not odd at all.If City do decide to sell him then his transfer fee will be higher.If Spurs were serious, and by all accounts ir did appear that way, then £60M become £70M. Good bit of business IMO and yes I do agree that so far he has been inconsistent but the lads only just 20/21 years of age.
Remember Rodris shit displays for the first 18 months ?

That’s not really how it works, we have to pray he can up his game to increase his value.

If we’re here in a years time and his scoring rate is just as low, we have an asset that has depreciated in value as he’s older and no better, whilst earning enough to put potential suitors off.

It’s a gamble we’ve played, not a certain thing.

Agree. I would have taken the money in the summer. But he's got time now to get his form going.

In recent years, I don't remember a City player having such vocal opposition while still pulling on a shirt. It's a shame.

Not all have blind loyalty to players (who were more than happy to fuck off in the summer). I’m a City fan, I want the club to do well, I may well be proven wrong and I’d be happy to, but I don’t think Savinho improves us.

It is a gamble at the end of the day. If he replicates his previous season, we are not seeing the fee we signed him for originally and have decided to raise his wages.

Every transfer is a gamble and the majority of players we`ve had "in" through the door have proved to be successful, but we`ve also had some real dummies. IMO we as fans should give the lad a bit more time. I always say take a look at Rodri who was dogshit for 18 months and maybe Sav can improve, but I`m not disappointed in him, as you can see the talent he has, but he needs to be more consistent.

Of course it isn`t but FFS the lad is only just 21 and still learning his PL trade.

Rodri was never dogshit, and especially not for 18 months. He was forced to play as a CB briefly during his first season when the club forgot to replace our greatest CB.

Regarding Savinho time will tell and we will see if the club has made a mistake or not.
