What do you expect him to do then? Players are given time off at the end of the season. Why would he be different? As for us signing him and then letting him play in the Brazilian league, I'm assuming that Palmeiras demanded that as a condition of the transfer. Not ideal, but what can you do? The hierarchy and Pep must have been happy enough with the arrangement.players must love us.
"get bought for £30m? go and have a holiday and don't mind that we have a Premier League to try and salvage".
"get red carded for stupid ill-discipline? no problem! go and put your feet up somewhere nice and then play like a numpty when you come back".
just ridiculous.
Wow, I'm surprised they've got some good players.Don't think Nigeria qualified
You do know this Burnley side is much better than Hull or Watford who we really struggled against
Pretty close to what I'd do except I'd have Sane instead of Nacho to give us some natural pace and width, maybe Yaya instead of Garcia.want to see this line-up against Burnley:
Bravo
Stones - Otemendi - Kolarov
Sterling - Garcia - KdB - Dinho - Silva
Nacho - Aguero
With Pep:s last word before the game "Impress me with your skills, show me your potential, and fight for being a part of this team !!! "
I just want 2 strikers and SPEED, but I´ll trust Pep to do an even smarter selection
I think Burnley will be a stiffer test, but it's a bit disingenuous to say we "really struggled" against Hull and Watford. They weren't vintage performances, but both ended up as comfortable wins.
Is Sane available today?
