I saw that?
I'm guessing half these valuations are based on trendy haircuts

Age maybe?

Nothing wrong with that tweet.

Neither do I but I also think if you are going to rule yourself out you should also forgo your wage, as for me feigning an injury is not following your contract

Bet your ass Neymar has been paid everytime he rules himself out to do what he wants

Didn’t we start the transfer window with the expectation that we’d be increasing the size of the squad?! I’d certainly expect a replacement for Sterling. You could argue that Jesus has already been replaced, since Ferran Torres was a fringe player. We certainly would need to bring in a quick winger to replace Sterling though. We’re already lacking pace up front.

If Bernardo wants to leave, and Barca pay up, then he’ll also need replacing. The trouble with replacing Sterling and Bernardo is that there are exceedingly few players able to match their quality. It’s difficult not to see us regressing in those areas.

Cheeky twats. Let’s bid 10p and a Twix for havertz.

Only if we can eat one of the Twix (Twix’s? Twixes?) first!

On Sterling and Jesus. Let’s not kid ourselves. Both players are not integral to city. Jesus never was. Sterling was a key player but now he does not back himself to start in this city team. What’s wrong with making changes? The squad has been crying out for a revamp now for 2/3 seasons.

It does not have to be black and white. Both players have contributed immensely and hopefully both bring in a decent fee. It’s a win win for the player and the club.

Notice how everyone wants Bernie to stay but not the other two. Squad players at best. If we do get a dm and a lb along with Haaland and Alvarez I would be content to give palmer a chance. Let’s be honest, if there is any area we are stacked in it’s midfield.

You never know we might get a winger aswell. Haaland is gonna tear it up. The departing players goals are already covered.

We got to believe that the incoming transfers will be able to step up otherwise no point buying them. Trust the club.

Grealish and Foden are technically superior to Sterling, however I'm not sure they replace his goal tally and the amount of 'heavy' goals he scored

They don’t need to score the goals now though. They need to chip in of course, but with the two strikers in the creative players just need to create

Plus Fernandhino gone.

Agreed...Is phillips a good enough replacement?

 

[Benarbia’s Backheel]

You know deep down I'm right, bring back Leroy!

In a heartbeat

If we lose Jesus, Sterling on top of Ferna and fail to replace them with the right quality which is incredibly difficult to do we are 100% weaker overall.

If Bernardo goes on top of that which at the moment is looking a very real possibility when Barca flog FDJ then we are in a bit of trouble. You can’t replace a player of Bernardo’s quality.
