Bernardo Silva

[Bobby the blue]

There is nothing that certain elements in the media would like more than for City fans to turn on our world class players. If you are daft enough to fall for it, shame on you.

The thing is it’s not just the media writing their usual drivel. Pep after the Barca game has added fuel to the fire after we had all thought It was over. There was no need to make those comments at all.

I’m a fully Paid up member of the pep fan club but that was just unnecessary to make those comments.

For me. I hope he stays. I really thought he was happy here and wants to stay but there is obviously something going on. It’s not flapping or what not. It’s realism. We have a long old season coming up and we are in for a grapple to win the league and champs league. We need a fully fit and committed squad if we are going to succeed.

It’s far too late in the day now to be selling Bernardo. The only way it would make sense if de jong was to come this way. Apart from that we are going to be considerably weaker.

One thing we can all be sure of is that Bernie will continue to give 100%

Exactly what does his missus want to see when she opens the curtains , the sydney opera house perhaps? the hanging gardens of Babylon? herds of wildebeest sweeping majestically across the plain , mrs Silva, mrs Silva ……….

She expects to be able to see the sea.

My reading of the tea leaves is that Barca are still short of the financial/cash position they need. Selling DeJong was part of the plan and they planned to get circa £70~£80m and that would free up cash, they would want to buy Bernado and still have some of that cash to add in the pot. I.E. they want to sell FDJ for more than they pay for BS.

I like FDJ but we are not muggs.

Have they registered kounde yet.
I know they are looking to sell a few players still to raise funds. Hopefully they run out of time.

I’m not naive enough to think that Barcelona aren’t a great draw for players still especially iberian players. I just hope Barcelona don’t have the funds to give us what we want.

As for the psg links I’m sure I read that there were in danger of breaching ffp rules so I don’t see how this plays out. Hopefully it’s all just blah and there’s no play on this.

Basically I’m doing a lot of hoping.

[Ajm1985]

Julien Laurens of ESPN who's a far more reliable journo on PSG transfers has come out and said the reports of the bid are false and he was only mentioned as one of the names they would consider in case Neymar left the club.

To me, it makes it more annoying - it's an attempt by Mendes and Bernardo to get Barca to make a move, while including tidbits like Bernardo would be annoyed at City rejecting a £59m fee. Essentially stating what they think Barca should bid and what we should accept.

Maybe a caravan in Rhyl?

I think its clear Barca are in a hole and buying BS and selling FDJ wont get them out. The management seems to be chaotic right now so who knows what is going on.

PSG may just be so confident of the FFP rules being so watered down that they dont care. Can only imagine there next sets of accounts showing massive expenditure - much of it amortised out over the length of the Mbappe contract but still - its massive numbers.
