It's Quiet 18 - Wanna ring the bell?

I can see Pep thinking Riquelme is the long term successor to Bernardo really.. cos this doesnt make much sense really. When he was breaking through (at Atleti) the talk was that he was an AM, maybe they think he can potentially in the future do Bernies both jobs.. I have no idea. Maybe Bernie is pushing somewhere.

Definitely a couple of years ago.. not now though. Hes a very Man City/Barca type of player, excellent progression and retention. He fell off though

Maybe about six years ago when he broke through at Anderlecht but, come on now, don't be the village idiot. You joined the forum in 2018 but it would seem more like your date of birth judging by that post.

would prefer riquelme over veiga...veiga seems faster but riquelme has a better technique...but neither of them are talented enough....would rather see us develop player like gomez,mcatee,bobb,borges,mebude etc

You can go through my post-history if you like, I'm sure it's pretty obvious. 2y ago. He was pretty crap at Monaco for instance and wasnt trusted playing anywhere else than nr.10 there really, cos I watched.

Can't be arsed going through your post history. If they are all up to the standard of "Txiki being caught off guard for missing out on Tielemans'", then I've obviously missed out on quite a few cheap laughs. Sorry to be so cutting but as a previous reponse to your original post pointed out, don't change your day job to become a talent scout for us.

Thats good stuff thanks. I dont behave like this on the Internet though, and never has. Our values differ but thats a-ok.

I'm still here!!!!!

Still figuring Twitter thing out, but so many friends and colleagues have been on at me to say I could maybe earn money from it at some point, so dipping my toe.

Also had some good advice from posters on here about exposing myself to some who may try to cause me strife, but I will either block or ignore.

From a professional point of view, my career is changing, so some people might be best ignoring me too, for their own reputations.

I'm not sure if it was Stefan or Ahsan(sp) who gave you the advice on Twitter but I'll double down on it.

Any crap from anybody just immediately block them and put it out of your mind. You'll have a much better experience of it.

Good news on Rico and Nathan BTW.

Lyon’s Rayan Cherki a possibility for Chelsea

PSG pushing to beat Liverpool and Chelsea to signing of midfielder Veiga

Paris Saint-Germain are pushing to beat Chelsea, Liverpool and Manchester City to the signing of Celta Vigo’s Gabri Veiga

www.theguardian.com

Does Cherki really want to move now.. I see him staying at least one more season. I think there will be a lot of suitors for him in that case..

edit: Contract expires 25, maybe the new american owners want him out now to cash in.

He probably doesnt want to sign a new deal then.. his last yer extension was an automatic one.

Txiki is caught off guard this window.. Im not convinced. And Riquelme is part of this, I like him as a player though. But I dont think they really expected Gundo to go and is on their heels because of that. Surely Mac Allister etc would have been worked on earlier then. The (obvious) targets are drying up. Bellingham, Szoboslai, Tonali and now Veiga.. even Tielemans really

Yes, Gundogan being out of contract must have come as such a shock to them. You would have thought someone might have noticed.
