We won't sell to Arsenal again.

Mate it's Cancelo I would sell him to anyone for good price.

We won't sell to Arsenal again.

Why?

Gundo is 33 though as well and we were planning on buying Bellingham anyway so why not Rice?

If Kovacic wasn't a done deal i would agree with you in that he should be signed regardless but if Gundo and Bernardo stays with Kovacic incoming, there is no need for Rice. OR bellingham

Fair enough. Hopefully Real comes knocking

Why?

Because they're now most certainly a rival. Last summer they were miles off and it was logical to do business with them. But with further investment they'll challenge and it's stupid to directly strengthen them.

Newcastle it is then, I’ll fire up the motor :)

 

[tolmie's hairdoo]

I had thought about him as assistant. I wrote Iniesta in the thread yesterday, largely tongue-in-cheek as I know he wants to continue playing but a former player is always logical.

In terms of the role, it's about seeing where weaknesses are. Analysing those opportunities to attack. As a player, Lampard was one of the best at that. So you'd imagine he could do it as an assistant, helping Pep find those areas to exploit. His managerial career has been poor, but that's often been the case with Pep's assistants so I don't think we need to worry about that too much.

Pep has told Txiki he wants someone the players would know.

Seems Fern still wants to play football, I fear!

Cancelo will end up being loaned out again mate as clubs will know him and Pep fell out?

If Phil is indeed going to be playing as a 10 next season there wouldn't be a better person to help the transition as well.

Gundo won`t play at the same intensity imo and Bernardo wants out?
