4 out of the last 5 Premier Leagues
An unprecedented domestic sweep in 2019
4 League Cups in a row
First UCL final and 2nd European final in club history
100 points in a season, the best single season PL team in history.

Haven't had a reason to doubt them yet. Transfer windows do crazy things to people. If you arent aimlessly firebombing the market like Chelsea, your season is clearly going up in flames.
 
After Friday's game Pep said this of Ake:
“He never complains, even last season when he didn’t play much he had a big smile on his face in training and was always really, really good.

“If we are happy, there’s no one person in the locker room who is not happy for him.

“As a manager, you become a manager to have players like Nathan so he deserves all the good things in life, in his profession and in his job.”

I wonder who else he wanted to hear these comments.

On his day Cancelo was an ok defender and a very good creative footballer. When not on his day he was a poor defender who made mistakes and his creativity went out of the window. Cost us points against Liverpool and was guilty of the same error against Southampton. Not sure Bayern will stump up £60m though.

If true wouldn't be too upset at a loan swap with Lucas Hernandez coming our way.

Would we really let him go mid season in a position we're already shirt in? He must have really pissed on pep's chips.

He did his ACL at the world cup. He's not going to play for the rest of the season.
 
remember when Ferguson presented the dressing room with an envelope , saying that inside is a name of the player who will let the team down this season , and when they won the title , he opened it in the dressing room and it was empty ? Rebuilding the team is perhaps the hardest job a manager has to do , some of this team are on borrowed time, it’s maintaining the intensity when the manager and players know it.
 
I would want Pep for 10 more years than have even KDB or Haaland stirring up the dressing room.

Pep prefer guys who gonna give it all for the club and that’s a quality to be admired at.

If the golden prodigy like Foden can be told to mind his ways else warm the bench, then Cancelo is a nobody imho.

The thing I wanna see what Txiki can pull off in the next 48 hours. Mind it we are substantially weaker and if that the price we are willing to pay to even let the title push get hindered a bit so be it.

Fingers crossed.
 
It takes a certain mindset to be usurped by a guy who wasn't legally old enough to buy booze yet, take it on the chin and win back your place. Some players just aren't cut out for it.
