That is beside the point though. There’s a difference rotating because Pep wants to and rotating because he HAS to. Look at Mo Salah and Van Dijk getting the contract extension at their age while Kev didn’t. Salah and Van Dijk has to be some of the most durable players nowadays, they never get...
Technically not always true either because they didn’t pay up when chasing KDB from Wolfsburg either. Again it’s all circumstancial. Word is that Bayern wants Wirtz next season and not this one.
That is not true and it has happened to us multiple times. Jorginho only wanted to join us but Txiki wouldn't pay the amount that Napoli wanted, so he got sold to Chelsea. Same thing with Alexis Sanchez, wanted only us but ended up with the rags.
I truly believe KDB just needs a whole offseason to recover and get his groove back. I don’t think he’s truly ‘washed’ as they say. KDB after injury has always taken a while to get going even during this peak years.
I love Zinchenko but we all forget how lacking he was defensively. With how shambolic our defending is currently, he wouldn’t solve our problem and most people here would be calling to say ‘we should’ve sold him to arsenal when we got the chance’.
I thought in defamation cases the burden of proof lies on the defendant (Tebas) to prove what he said is true. City doesn't have to prove what he said isn't true.
Would it be six with a release clause going active after the 4th year? I think that makes sense for both sides. Long term security for him in case he doesn't move after the 4th year.
I feel like Pep should just do us a favor and sign the deal and if he feels like leaving he can just leave at any time regardless of his contract situation no?
100%. This reeks of entitled united fan screaming 'oh he'll sign for us because of our history and we're united' shit. The board needs to realize that player nowadays is cut from a different cloth.
