Bernardo Silva

[RayCTID]

The constant flirting with Barcelona is getting boring, I have absolutely no idea why you would go to that club currently anyway. Lets be honest they aren't going to win the european cup anytime soon and they are a long way second in a league that is a two horse race whilst playing farmers the rest of the time.

Maybe he feels he has won enough during his career and wants to spend the rest of his best days frolicking in the sun in a dead team. Good luck to him if that's the case but the valuation has to be met and that has to be at least £80m and if were being fair it should be beyond £100m.

True but Brighton held firm and got more than their valuation for Cucurella despite us low balling them and the player handing in transfer request.

Worth a watch that, especially for the flappers. 21 mins approx. the chat about Bernardo begins and listen to 4-5 minutes of it.

Nedum gives you the clarification as to why our strategy on allowing players to leave is a good one. If you imagine yourself playing for Real Madrid right now. You've just won La Liga, the CL and are on decent money. But City are interested in signing you. It wouldn't make sense to any Real Madrid fan but you'd be straight over here. It would be a move you'd always want, but if City didn't bid you'd crack on and put your all into the team you are at.

it is good strategy but we do have a realistic valuation of Bernardo and Barcelona's currentbehaviour is probably that off putting for us to deal with them.

What's that saying, better to have loved and lost, than never to have loved before?

As others have said, our stance on players who wish to leave is spot on.

It has secured us some of the best players in the world, it wins us trophies, it sees us say goodbye, it also sees some stay way longer than anyone ever thought likely.

That goes for Pep too.

Haaland is here because he knows if there ever does come a day, we keep our word to people.

Look at United, inserting 12-month renewal options on players they sign, just to try and protect the asset, regardless if that players is unhappy or eventually wants to leave.

Happened with Fellaini, Pogba, Mata, Jones, Shaw.

They end up walking for free in the end and the toxicity in the dressing room permeates for another year.

To be fair Fellaini had a fucking perm every month.

Think if Barca can get some sort of bent deal/financial leveling and actually have room for him & he still wants it next summer with that 17 year old Dortmund prospect coming to us to replace him would be the way out of this for all parties.
