It's Quiet 18 - Wanna ring the bell?

[Blue and true]

I miss Tolmie. I wrote a few lines to some up my feelings and this thread.

I have to remind myself that some birds aren't meant to be caged. Their feathers are just too bright. And when they fly away, the part of you that knows it was a sin to lock them up does rejoice. Still, the place you live in is that much more drab and empty that they're gone. I guess I just miss my friend.

Lord, it's a miracle! Man just up and vanished like a fart in the wind.

That is your take on it...players like bernardo Haaland etc want to test themselves in the most competitive league. Fdj doesn't strike me as a player who wants to be out of his comfort zone....and I don't think gor one second that he isn't good enough but it's about mindset

He left Ajax as a 22 year old to join Barcelona and test himself for what is still one of the most desired clubs to play for. Why do you think he's not happy to be out of his comfort zone? He's just won La Liga, playing regularly for them so why would he want to leave? Our league is hyped up, but it's not the be all or end all to play in it for a lot of players. Bellingham's just made the decision to play for Real Madrid over coming to the PL and I wouldn't question his mindset, that was a tougher choice and he's backed himself. It would be easy for Frenkie to come to England and play under Pep, he'd thrive. But he's probably happy where he is and that's fine, nothing to do with not wanting a challenge. He's arguably got a harder one where he is.

So anyone who doesn't come to the PL is weak minded then? I guess you're not a Messi fan, let alone the thousands and thousands of other like minded world class weak individuals.

Bernardo came to the PL through two other leagues. Now he wants out again. Has he lost the will to test himself too?

Haha, did I die? Where's my RIP thread?

Thanks for kind words.

Interesting to see that Trafford and Bazunu sales would amount to £33m for keepers who never made a first team save for City.

Messiah, like?

Would be very happy with Gvardiol coming in and that being that.

Ederson
Walker, Stones, Dias, Ake
Rodri
De Bruyne, Bernardo
Foden, Haaland, Grealish

Ortega
Lewis, Akanji, Gvardiol, Laporte
Phillips
Kovacic, Gomez
Mahrez, Alvarez, McAtee

Not a chance we're paying a record fee for a defender to put him in the second team. He'll start ahead of Ake

True true. Probably means Laporte will go.
