Every transfer thread nowadays inevitably ends up with slating Bravo :)
Wasn't trying to slate him at all, I still think he's a good keeper that's had a horrendous season. Just don't see the point in using 2 foreign spots on keepers with someone as highly rated as Gunn in the squad already, who counts as club trained.
 
I agree with you. Although, Why Puyol and De la Pena were in ETIHAD few days ago ?

Saying sorry and kissing arse perhaps?

I get us sticking to principles but if pep wants him and he wants to now come then what happened shouldnt stop any deal imo.
 
Really is a shame the way this one panned out, think he's a great defender. However maybe not such a bad thing if his heart wasn't really in it in the first place. Anyone any info on what changed his mind?
 
Listen to Sam Lee's account on the 93.20 podcast if you haven't already. This lad left us high and dry. I hadn't fully realised just how last minute his backing out was. I sincerely hope the club will have nothing to do with him. And in fact I'm pretty sure that it won't.
 
A young man moving to a different country is a big decision. I can understand the u turn. It is difficult to accept but it is understandable.

The thing is he knew that at the start of the discussions why leave it to the point that contracts had been drawn up. It meant City were left in the lurch.
 
A big part of our scouting effort is looking at personality and mental strength etc. - as well as obviously football related factors. I really can't see Laporte being an option in the future given how we will inevitably interpret his actions.

Maybe it was the way he handled the communication. He can change his mind but how did it all play out? Reading between the lines it seems like an issue of respect
