I think he would be a good signing
I just wonder if we are saving whatever money we have to replace kun next year
Logic could dictate that we raise some cash by getting rid of Gundogan, who we may still be able to get a decent fee for before he hits his 30s, and then bring in Aaour for the very decent price he's going for at only 22 years of age.
Pep, however, doesn't seem to want to ever get rid of his love child though.

He didn't have to work too hard for it, let's be honest!

We handed Gundogan a new and improved deal last year when we should have just shaken his hand and got what we could at the time.
He's not going to get a better deal at his age playing anywhere else.

We are stuck with Gundogan. No one is going to match his wages. it was terrible decision to hand him new deal.Logic could dictate that we raise some cash by getting rid of Gundogan, who we may still be able to get a decent fee for before he hits his 30s, and then bring in Aaour for the very decent price he's going for at only 22 years of age.

Would love Aouar, but not sure he would solve any of our problems. He would add creativity and help us keep the ball. But he is not going to do the dirty work in midfield for us. Or make it harder for our opponents to bypass our midfield. Which Leicester did fairly easily yesterday.
He does loads of dirty work.
Aouar is what we've lost in Silva. He hold onto the ball and dictates play, he unlocks defences, but he also runs himself into the ground and is very quick and aggressive.
Him, Rodri and KDB or him, Fern and KDB and most of our issues go away.

Genuine question, who is Peps preferred partner for kdb this season. Is it foden or bernado? Has he said or hinted? If one gets injured though we are looking light in cm. What would a foden bernado midfield look like? Exciting? Too small? Ridiculously energetic? Now I want to see it haha. Gundogan can't play in a midfield with either rodri or ferna its too slow and predictable. Does pep prefer foden over mahrez at rw? If so that only leaves kdb and bernado. Basically either way I think we need a cm, doyle looked good but that was a poor Bournemouth.

Silly mistake.

One of the biggest mistakes we have made - Pep's blind spot on him is going to cost us repeatedly.

Repeated with Fern this summer (albeit, a legend)
