Report that Guardiola plans to sell Silva [according to Twitter ITK]

[Dave Ewing's Back 'eader]

I'm privy to the notion that Ollie is Mangala's replacement and Stan is set to get the right back berth.

 

[Robinho's Subbuteo]

Maybe Pep plans to sell the 'silver' in the trophy room (as he didn't win any of it) and Football Outsider heard assumed it was about the player?

 

[Steve68]

You heard it here first, the Mangler to be the next Yaya….

By which I meant, someone who for the fee and the role we needed to hit the ground running. Not an incredibly over priced player the jury is still out on two years later.

 

[@BluePhil8]

I think it's absolute bull shit.

Pep keep any player who is committed fully to this club and has the ability to carry out his vision. That is why Silva is staying, Zabaleta is staying etc. Yaya will definitely be going, Bony will probably go because he won't be able to carry out Pep's instructions, Willy might go if he wants to bring in his own competition for Hart.

We aren't going to revolutionise the playing staff, he will just build on our already great foundations.

I do not , under almost any circumstances, want Silva to be sold.

However, if that is the price to pay for finally making it clear to all and sundry that no player is bigger than the club, or no player is indispensable, and it is the MANAGER that runs the club then, as sad and devastated as it would make me, I will accept it.

This might be the price we have to pay for getting the best manager in the world.

That said, I call bollocks. Silva is in my opinion, exactly the sort of player that Pep would want.

I cannot wait for the future. The last few years will seem like a relegation scrap compared to what is coming.

If Ogdens on it, the inside source is probably the Swamp PR shit stirring department

 

[Tricky_Trev]

Nobody WANTS him to be sold but although we don't like it, we are getting ever closer to no longer seeing David in a City shirt. That's just the sad reality. Players come and players go, but City lives on. Eez a football. Hopefully we can get several more years out of him, but whatever Pep thinks is best, I support. He's sold fucking Ronaldinho in the past, and that turned out alright. Let's just see what happens.

 

[Thenumber1blue]

Someone actually made a thread about this !

 

[ped]

i think its bullshit,but i also said at the start of the season that if we fell short again it wont be just the manager who is changed ,sergio is exempt maybe hart ,but everyone else is underthreat,khaldoon was fuming last season ,he will be ruthless if we have a repeat

 

[billfromthehill]

Fuck this thread in the bin with all the other rubbish.

 

[Phil1]

Nah.

How many players can we realistically change in one transfer window?

 

[BringBackSwales]

Twitter and ITK in the same thread title, I am not sure that I know what an oxymoron is, but it's probably this isn't it?

 

[Mayor West]

Honestly can't say it'll be the end of the world if Silva is sold, I'd prefer it if we kept him, but I'd trust pep to replace him with someone more than up to job.

 

[Exeter Blue I am here]

"Footballer Insider sources". How do these cunts sleep at night?

'Football Insider'. I wonder what the qualifying criteria are? I once showed legendary Exeter City forward, Tony Kellow (that's "hello, Tony Kellow, Tony Kellow, hello" to the uninitiated), around my school's summer fete in 1982. I thanked him for scoring a last minute equaliser in a 2-2 draw against the Green and White shite (that's Plymouth Argyle for the uninitiated), and he told me he enjoyed playing for Exeter very much, but declined to take part in the fete's penalty shoot out competition on the grounds that, and I quote from somewhat hazy memory "I've got me best bleedin' shoes on son". Do you think those are sufficient grounds for me to qualify as a 'football insider'?

Ogden knows fuck all about City so if he reckons this is a goer it is complete and total bollocks.
My 11 month old Granddaughter knows more about City than he ever will.

 

[Exeter Blue I am here]

Need Bluewhit to confirm this is made up rubbish. Be absolutely gutted if David is not playing in our side next season.

I don't think that'll be necessary on this occasion.......

[birchwoodgingerste]

Load of made up nonsense

 

[BlueS]

So sad if true, but i guess it will happen one day.

Our best ever player, take a bow Sir Silva

(if true ;))
