Bernardo Silva

[Exeter Blue I am here]

Don’t agree mate .
He will be gone for under £65million and we won’t be bringing anyone in this summer . He should be £100 million and we should replace but we never replace the same window . Is it a mistake course it is .

Not replacing him, with a 55 game season ahead of us (plus a World Cup) and a tiny squad containing an assortment of fine glassware in the shape of Stones, Laporte, DeBruyne, Palmer & Phillips, would be lunacy…..and on that basis I’ve no doubt you’re right!

Whatever happens, I'll take it in stride. Not going to pine over any player as much as I like him, we'll be fine.

If he goes, I'll be very surprised if we don't. Although I called Chelsea paying all that for cucurella wrong

As much as I love having Bernardo in the team he is not irreplaceable.
Others will step up, others will be brought through the ranks or be purchased. There will be a plan & it will provide opportunities for hungrier players.
Barcelona are a broke joke club & he will be downgrading at a pivotal point in his career, which will be sad to see.
The way it's dragged on is poor & has echoes of Sane to Bayern Munich.
Bernie dresses it up by going on about mutual respect & happy to play here, but he does not make a positive statement about staying. If Barcelona can't pony up the dough I see him having a reduced role this season before being sold next season to the highest bidder.

I hope as Gaughan has reported we hold out for a minimum £80m and don't buckle. We shouldn't under any circumstances be accepting a lower offer.

£80m is a laughable price. Should be nothing less than £120m.

£80m is a laughable price. Should be nothing less than £120m.

If we valued Bernie at £!20m then that would definietly price him out of the move and he will be more pissed off if we did that. It is finding out a compromise.

I think £100m, but even at £80m unless De Jong is sold I don't see Barca coming up with the cash. All bids should be off the table because to find an adequate replacement is going to be difficult with only 2 weeks left.

I'm all for finding a compromise but the club has to do what's best for Manchester City. Personally I think £80m is an absolute joke, Leicester are turning down bids of over £50m for James Maddison, Wolves have turned down £40 for Gibbs-White ect...

Bernardo Silva is one of the very best midfield players in Europe with still three years left on his contract so we should be looking at more than £80m for him.

I'm sure both clubs will come to an agreement regarding a price and more than likely a lot of it will be add ons due to the financial state of Barcelona.

Maybe its my hatred towards Barcelona and my love for Bernardo Silva but fuck that for doing these twats any favours, We've already turned our nose up at £16m for Garcia in a January window yet he was going their for free anyway a couple of months later on top of the Ferran Torres deal, Then you've the charity event whilst the season has already started whatever that's about...

Guys stop and really think about this as pep and man city didn't know this could happen without a plan to replace him as this has been going on for a very long time we are not the city of old we are a very very well run club ! look across the city did you think sine 2008 we would be where we are now have faith we all need to

But we won't even see that 80m, ok maybe in the next ten years we might
