Captain for next season | Bernardo confirmed (pg11)

[uwerosler28]

Any other insights you can give us, given you were in the dressing room and on the pitch for the final?

Well we know Haaland wasnt deselected as the designated penalty taker as he took one the next game, showed zero leadership in the cup.final especially around the penalty situation

Ruben Dias, Captain.

Bernie is in and out of games and gets subbed.

Haaland is isolated on his own up front and mopes about during games.

Rodri should just concentrate on his fitness and getting back to the player he is.

I'm glad you agree. :-)

Fucking funny he's.selected Haaland as someone who will give it all when he couldn't even step up and take a penalty in the only game that gave us a chance of a trophy this season the shit house.

That isn't 'being reported' mate. That's just someone saying something on twitter

It's not a random twitter account. He obviously has connections in the club.

It's almost like one action doesn't define who someone is.

Given Marmoush missed it, makes sense Haaland was back in..

Does Henry, Messi , Ronaldo, Shearer, Aguero hand that ball over to Marmoush?

Unlikely, as none of them were playing in that game.

Obviously in an equivalent scenario

Messi has done it before. ronaldo let Bruno Fernandes miss a penalty. Henry let Pires take a penalty against us...

Dunno. Don’t even know if this rumour is true tbh. But if Guardiola, or Haaland’s team mates, think he is leader material then I trust their judgment over yours.

 

[Stoned Rose]

Haaland?

Not having that.

Rest of it, sound.

 

[Le Havre Oswald]

If they all start who’s wearing the armband?

 

[Gobshiight]

While I love the idea of Bernardo lifting a trophy for us, I think it might be time to have someone be captain for multiple seasons

Give it Rodri along with a shiny new contract

 

[Ric]

Haaland?

Why aren’t you having it? Pep publicly made him a captain last year.

Guardiola: I nominated Erling as a captain

Pep Guardiola has revealed he made Erling Haaland one of the team captains following the departure of Kyle Walker.

If a player feels he's not 100% or has an equipment problem.. it is actually procedure to give the pen to the next player.

Famous examples:

World Cup 1990 FINAL - Matteus said his shoes didn't feel right.. gave it to Brehme.. Brehme scored!

CL Final 2013 - Lewandowski didn't feel right.. gave it to Gundogan.. Gundogan scored!

So I have no problem with Haaland passing it up if he's not 100%.. and Omar took a good pen.. the keeper just saved it!

Get over it!

Only surprise is that Gvardiol isn’t mentioned.

if Kova goes nobody will understand what he says

I think Bernardo may actually get an extension if he has a good season.

He's only 30 and he's had to do the work of a lot of people in a bad season. If people around him do their part.. we could have a very useful Bernardo for maybe more than 1 year!

Either way we'll see!
