Fernandinho signs one year contract extension (Pg 91)

[c17_yae]

He definitely deserves another year, and then next year we get Bellingham

Surely Bellingham is too old for us though, unless anyone can confirm his age......Ian Darke might know??

So we keep Fern for one more season & many fans want us to keep Kun .Many fans also want Liam Delap & Tommy Doyle & others to get more game time
Pep has to look at the big picture
If they both stayed for one more season it slows the pathway for other players .They both still class but not first name on team sheet anymore
They have to move on sooner or later what better time to leave as part of a team that could pull of the treble ( hope I not the kiss of fn death)

Saying that Fernandinho has made 32 appearances without any major injury issues this season so could still do a job for next with any problem. The only problems is wages.

I think that’s probably part of the issue? Ferna wants more game time as he still feels he can play more than he does and wants to get more game time as his career winds down.

Definitely didn't want to come off yesterday I felt a bit sorry for him.

Yes such a great player and a great person, I'm sure he and his agent have got something lined up for next season.
Personally I would keep him for another year.
Another legend.

He looked incredible today and I would give him man of the match even though he went of in the second half .He is as fit as anyone on the team & the complete professional but is it better for him to go now so others can step up or give him another year ? That is why Pep as always has the difficult dicisions to make

If Fernandinho can accept lesser wages for a season and his family is still settled in Manchester then I don't see a problem him sticking around. It won't block any promising EDS players path, although we are covered in both positions he plays any extra experience head around the squad shouldn't do any harm.

It’s more about what Pep thinks he can do. If he thinks he can play 20 games next season, then it’s a no brainer.

Unless he’s uncovered the new Fernandinho...

If we have a foreign spot in the squad available he must be a shoe-in.
