Another barcelona fc aggregator reported this comment from pep as him saying the words 'barcelona football club' not just barcelona the place, but who knowsI’m sure everyone who has been to Barcelona likes it. But we don’t live there. Neither does Bernardo atm.
The good news. 22+ in Manchester for the next 5 days.
Seems like Pep bloody wants him to go
That last quote from Pep sounds more like something his agent would say than his coach :/
The quotes really annoyed me tbh when I saw them and I've checked them against other sources and he has said them
Very annoying comments from Pep. Seems that being at Barca has made him forget he's not employed by them.
I agree that he’s made the comments knowing that the odds of a serious bid emerging from Barcelona are likely very small, but I’m not sure how his statement helps with regard to Bernado himself.Pep knows full well they can't afford to buy Bernardo. Jules Kounde was playing tonight because he can't play official games for them as he's unregistered!
So he knows there's 0% chance of this move happening, which allows him to take a very sympathetic stance towards it in public. He's not refusing Bernie his move and forcing him to stay, and he's not refusing to do business with Barca. It keeps him on side with everyone.
This guy is dying on his sword. He's been adamant all summer that bernardo to barca is on. He's now literally saying our CEO is bullshitting on the situation. I really hope he gets egg on his face after all this
