It's Quiet 17 - Glory Thread

Given the rumours of a fall out, I'm not massively shocked by this. Sad the way his City career has come to an end as he wont play for us again now. His sending off against Fulham seemingly the start of his downfall.

You've got to hope we have a big summer window in us now. A LB and CM the absolute minimum now and we probably need another couple of faces on top of that to refresh the squad.

I think Cancelo sees himself as a first choice right back. Not a squad player who gets most games at LB. Not surprised he's off.

I prefer Walker at RB and think we should be buying a new LB anyway. Infact I haven't been happy with our LB situation since Terry Phelan's best form.

Who is the Bayern RB at the minute?
 
I said at the start of the season that Foden would end up playing some sort of hybrid left back this season - as he did in the second half v Palace. All those saying we've planned terribly here might be missing something. We've got 5 cb's for a reason I recon. We're practically playing 3 at the back every game now. So no panic buy needed. Having a smaller squad will really help by not needing to give players games and rotating far too much - which we do. I recon for the rest of the season we'll alternate from
.....................................Eddy..................................
....Akanji/Stones..........Dias/Laporte...............Ake.....
Walker/Lewis..............Rodri/Phillips...........Foden/Bernardo
..........................Kev/Bernardo/Gunda...................
Mahrez/Alverez/Bernardo....Haaland.............Grealish/Foden

or
......................................Eddy...................................
Walker/Lewis.......Akanji/Stones.....Dias/Laporte...........Ake
Marez/Bernardo........Kev/Ginda.....Rodri...........Foden/Grealish
......................Alverez..............Haaland.......................

That's still a lot of majorly good options in every position. We don't need trouble makers/marde arses like Cancelo stinking the place out
 
Inconsistency has been a constant in his career.
That’s why the guy has had so many clubs at such a young age.
We all agree he’s been able to be sublime and shocking within the blink of an eye.
Add to this a bit of a fiery temperament and I can see why Pep is happy to let him go.
No point keeping an unhappy player…it spreads.

We are pretty much up the creek if Ake gets injured.

Sad to see him go like you say he can be sensational.
If he wants to go that’s fine but surely we should use Bayern's interest as leverage to get one of their players or definitely a transfer not loan
 
Chilwell would make sense - he is a Nike athlete. Not a regular at Chelsea, I don't think he's particularly emotionally tied to them, either. Fine for us. He's talented and strong enough for sure. Hasn't had any chance to show it of late - equally that means there's a question mark over how he's recovered.

He has injury issues. There is a reason he isn't playing much
