You'd miss out on the one we want for the sake of £20mill, if we can afford it that would be daft.Bruno is good, but not 100m good. Would prefer the money be spent elsewhere if that's what Newcastle are asking for. Only way I'd be comfortable paying that kind of money for him is if Pep signs a year extension alongside it.
Get them down to 75-80m or go for a different midfielder.
Sarcasm isn't your strong point
Sounds pretty similar to Rodri then!7 goals, 8 assists, 9 bookings
Gundogan was hardly quick. Pace isn’t a commodity Pep puts high on his list of needs.I'm watching him in Brazil's friendly versus the USA, and I've mentioned this before, but he's so damn slow. Getting run past like he's not there.
I really don't know what he offers that Lewis couldn't eventually or that Kovacic gives us now.
We have far bigger holes that need addressing, IMO.
Looked like his right foot.Source?
Rodri needs more rest otherwise he risks burnout. We need to bring someone in and Bruno although expensive ticks all the boxes.I dont see how he starts. Kovacic is better. So 100m for a back up? Hes an above average prem player imo.
So now the same Newcastle lad who posted it has now said the clause hasn’t been triggered, imagine my shock. We don’t have the appetite to do another £100m transfer imo
Why does the money bother you?Bruno is good, but not 100m good. Would prefer the money be spent elsewhere if that's what Newcastle are asking for. Only way I'd be comfortable paying that kind of money for him is if Pep signs a year extension alongside it.

If Nunes can improve his first touch and how he receives the ball, such that he doesn’t lose it in dangerous areas like he did against Luton last season, then his opportunities within the team would dramatically improve.Unironically...
I've also mentioned trying to deploy someone like Nunes, who covers a lot of ground deeper next season, to take some defensive burden off of him.
