You’ve not been on here long enough to be added into that group mate.I don't know if you mean me, but I said exactly what others are saying now - that he will be good for a year, or two. Then likely after that he will start to decline and go to finish his career elsewhere.
It seems City agree with me too, hence the short-term deal.
No need for the sarcasm. You know what I meant.Nice of city to agree with you

I have the same feeling but its on my "bone-end".A feeling in my bones
I think it's nailed on he'll be offered a coaching role and I think he'll gladly take it. He ain't coming back for one season to go and finish his career elsewhere.I don't know if you mean me, but I said exactly what others are saying now - that he will be good for a year, or two.

How can I sell it to you?
We need someone who can take the strain off Rodri and De Bruyne this season and Gundo's dependable and available on a free transfer. It makes complete sense. He won't have been signed thinking he's going to get regular minutes - this is Foden's team now and the likes of Kovacic and McAtee are going to have bigger roles in the future.
This is like us signing David Pizzaro or Frank Lampard back in the day, only we've signed a better player than Pizarro - with a bigger sentimental attachment to the club and fans than Lampard - who already understands what Pep wants. I normally say "don't go back" and I'd probably be against this if we were planning on paying a fee, but we're not.
Above all, though, football does have room for sentimentality and nostalgia, no matter how many people say it's a ruthless sport. Aside from what Gundo will bring to the team, at least now we'll get to give him a proper goodbye. He's a treble-winning captain and the club buggered up his chance to go off into the sunset with a wave - now we can put that right.
We've won everything there is to win in the game so I'm not really after trophies this season. I just want fun and good vibes. Doku and Savinho are fun, Lewis, Bobb, and McAtee are good vibes, and Gundogan coming back to share minutes with De Bruyne while Foden is given the reigns is such a sweet passing of the torch ceremony that I might cry.
Yeah that’s what I was afraid ofIt's the Internet
A done deal just means some shitkicker on Twitter said it
