Bruno Guimaraes

How many people on here have actually watched multiple full 90s of Ederson, Reijnders or Guimaraes? You just have to assume and hope that City’s scouts have done their jobs and chosen someone that will work

I asked Gemini 2.0 for you. This was the answer. I don't know if this accurate or not. I haven't seen them play much:

Okay, let's compare Tijjani Reijnders and Bruno Guimarães as potential signings for Manchester City, focusing on who would be a better fit:

Tijjani Reijnders (AC Milan):

  • Style: A versatile midfielder capable of playing as a deep-lying playmaker, a box-to-box midfielder, or even further forward. He's known for his excellent passing range, vision, technique, and work rate. He's also a good ball-carrier and can contribute defensively.
  • Pros:
    • Technically gifted: Reijnders possesses the passing ability and vision to thrive in a possession-based system like City's.
    • Versatile: He can play in multiple midfield roles, offering tactical flexibility.
    • High work rate: He's energetic and contributes defensively, which is important in Pep's system.
    • Potentially cheaper: He might be a less expensive option than Guimarães.
    • Serie A Proven: He is a starter for a big club, with great performances.
  • Cons:
    • Less physically imposing: Compared to Guimarães, he's not as physically strong or dominant.
    • Less Premier League proven: He's currently playing in Serie A and may need time to adapt to the Premier League's physicality and intensity. Although he was great in the champions league.
    • Less goal threat: While he can contribute offensively, he's not as much of a goal threat as Guimarães.
Bruno Guimarães (Newcastle United):

  • Style: A dynamic box-to-box midfielder with excellent passing, tackling, and dribbling skills. He's energetic, strong in possession, and can contribute both defensively and offensively. He's also a threat in the final third, capable of scoring goals and creating chances.
  • Pros:
    • Premier League proven: He's already established himself as a top midfielder in the Premier League.
    • Dynamic and energetic: His box-to-box style would add a different dimension to City's midfield.
    • Strong in both defense and attack: He's a complete midfielder who can contribute at both ends of the pitch.
    • Goal threat: He's capable of scoring goals and creating chances in the final third.
  • Cons:
    • Potentially very expensive: Newcastle would likely demand a huge fee for him.
    • May be cup-tied in the Champions League: Depending on when he's signed.
    • Adaptation to Pep's System: Although he has shown great quality, it is not guaranteed that he will adapt.
Who is the better fit for Manchester City?

This is a tough one, as both players offer different qualities. Here's a breakdown:

  • If City want a Premier League-proven, dynamic box-to-box midfielder who can immediately impact the team and play alongside Rodri, Guimarães is the better option. He's a more complete player at this stage and would add a different dimension to City's midfield. However, his price tag could be a major stumbling block.
  • If City want a technically gifted, versatile midfielder who can play in multiple roles, control the tempo, and potentially be a long-term successor to Rodri (or complement him in a less physically demanding role), Reijnders could be a smart choice. He might be a more affordable option and fits Pep's style of play, but he may need more time to adapt to the Premier League.
My Opinion(Gemini):

While Reijnders is a great player, Guimarães is likely the better fit for Manchester City right now. His Premier League experience, dynamism, and all-around quality make him a more impactful signing, especially if City are looking to strengthen their midfield immediately.

However, the financial aspect cannot be ignored. If Guimarães is deemed too expensive, Reijnders could be an excellent alternative who could develop into a top player under Pep's guidance. He also wouldn't have any trouble fitting into the system, because he is tactically very astute. Reijnders is also the more versatile player, who can be used in many more roles, but due to his physicality, he is less likely to be used alongside Rodri. He also played very well against Newcastle in the Champions League. It is also worth noting that Milan would ask for a lot of money, as he is a key player for them.

Ultimately, the best choice depends on City's budget, priorities, and long-term plans. Both players are great options, so it is very hard to choose.

Gemini is wrong :) Tijjani is the better long-term fit. More versatile and more energetic. Qualities we need in spades. Also Tijjani has 10 goal contributions this season. 7 goals and 3 assists. So I don't know why Gemini thinks goal contributions is an advantage for Guimarses.

IMHO.
 
This should be a no brainier for us. If we can get him for 70ish million then it would be very good business.

Capable of playing in the 6 role whilst Rodri is out but next season once Rodri is back fit he could play along side Rodri in a double pivot. Throw in maybe Wirtz in front of them and we would be unplayable.
