It's Quiet 17 - Glory Thread

[BlueCityfan]

We have Sterling, Jesus, Mahrez and Gundogan with 1-year left on their contracts. We have replaced Jesus and it looks like he is going to Arsenal.
But we still have to figure out what to do with the others. All while replacing Ferna and a certain french LB this transfer window.

This Bernardo stuff couldn't come at a worse time.

My biggest concern is Bernardo's attitude when he returns to pre-season training. He trained badly last pre-season and didn't really get his head together until after the window had closed. If he pitches up like that again it will be tantamount to trying to force a move and would show a real lack of professionalism. The reality is Barcelona's financial situation is well documented. They cannot afford to pay us 100 million euros for him, in fact I'd guess they can't even pay half of that.

I don't particularly like FDJ as a replacement either. I don't want to do Barcelona any favours. They have to find the money and pay it to take Bernardo. Otherwise they, along with Mendes, can fuck right off. They signed a long contract at City and Mendes will have taken his cut from that too. They are in the Kane boat in that City are under absolutely no pressure to sell him and have years left on his deal.

I agree with this i just feel that if we gave him our word last season that he could leave(?) then it may be better to sell, rather than have him thinking that we weren't honest or conned him somehow. Obviously any offer would have to meet our valuation, which shouldn't be any less than €100m imo.

If he did leave, i would forget about De Jong too, purely based on the wages he's getting.

But i would go all out for Bellingham, i think he would be perfect for us.
It would be great to get him now because i think there will be a bidding war for him next summer and i wouldn't fancy us winning that.

Guys stop harassing Lou. @Tony - MCFC you especially.

Well said,but on the flip....maybe Lou needs to take a step backwards and stop regurgitating so much twitter shite.

 

[Legal Alien]

He is but we were willing to take 60m last year and no offers came in

Yeah but he got better last season, so the price has rightly gone up.
If no-one won't or can't pay that then he stays, simple as that.

 

[Frede Fup]

I always assumed Ric was every account other than mine.

I am…

 

[samuelyeboah]

I'd just like to point out that 70m euros is exactly £60m, the price some people have said here is a reasonable price for Kalvin Phillips.

 

[meeesh]

Has he signed yet then ?

 

[Asa's left peg]

Bernardo is worth more than 100 Million Pound.

I heard it was 94m euros! Funny.

According to the Premier League, he had the most passes and touches in the league last year, while completing the most tackles & having the most shots for City (top 10 overall for both). He lost possession less than Bernardo as well. It may not and probably won't happen, but I don't see a great argument why it couldn't

Because he's not in a central area. Do what he does centrally, and at times he's lost the ball in our midfield which has either led to a goal or nearly led to one. Have to make sure the data you're analysing coincides with where they play and how it impacts. Most touches, passes and shots (which he should honestly take less of) are common for a side as great as us because we dominate the ball.
