Fernandinho signs one year contract extension (Pg 91)

[TonyM]

Give him Lavia and tell him to call him "grasshopper".

Players like Doyle can learn their craft from Dinho , he appears settled in Manchester and is respected by the players he has taken on Vinnie's mantle as the senior player , extend his contract by a year with an option for another year. Remuneration shouldnt be an issue , both parties will come to an amicable solution , he doesnt appear to be motivated by money and our club have to much respect for the guy ot make him a low ball offer.

Fernandinho is such a tidy player, very underrated by everyone outside our city bubble. I don't care though I just keep counting the trophies.

I used to think this but talking to other fans of other clubs I've heard some say they think he's been our best signing post takeover they also reckon he's a proper dirty bastard (probably is isn't he ;-) but every team needs one. He'll go down as one of our best ever midfielders.

When he retires in 35 years. Extend!

The greatest player to ever wear a CITY shirt .

If he isn’t, he’s certainly not far off it.

Has anyone thought that maybe Fernandinho wants to leave this summer?

 

[EL APACHE TEVEZ]

Souness always raves about ferna he said he was the best defensive midfielder in the world

 

[Kinkladze's crazy skills]

Fernandinho is a generation defensive midfielder there is nobody else is world football like him, he has what Kante has defensively but also has the ability to create he's a great passer of the ball... he could be a playmaker for another team that never thought to play him in a deeper role something Kante could not, when he was younger Fernandinho he was primarily a box to box attacking midfielder in the vein of a young Lampard minus the goals.

We need to do everything we can to keep him here even just as an influence but he's so much more, his understanding of the game defending and attacking as a whole is second to none!!! I honestly wouldn't be totally surprised if he's our next manager post Pep should he stay or become a coach here once he retires.

Has to get another year. Time will catch up with him, possibly over the summer but he's super fit, has the intelligence to not even need to do much running if he really can't move around anymore and he controls games like nobody else in the side. Like to see Pep adapt his minutes so that he's not playing 90 then a week off but instead gets 70 minutes, think he could play more that way. His influence on the dressing room has become very apparent this year, we can't lose that.

One final year from the master let him pass on as much as possible to those around him before moving into Peps coaching staff.

Fernandinho is fluent in Portuguese, English & Ukrainian. I'm sure I read somewhere he also speaks Spanish & Italian. His intellect can't be disputed, & we see his intelligence with tactical fouls every time he plays.

I can't think of a better club Ambassador, Scout, qualified coach & leader of men than Fernandinho. He's never given us a problem in his 7 years at the club & has loyally served us as a model professional. He has to be kept on in a major capacity, as I can think of no one better to convince the next Brazilian Superstar that City is the club for them.
