It's Quiet 18 - Wanna ring the bell?

Gonna miss mahrez, absolutely brilliant player. Genuine world class winger. Intrigued to see who we replace him with
 
If City is going to lose a 33y old, 32, 32, 29 and a soon 29y old.. i think pep will go for young players. Raph etc doesnt really fit with that then but what do I know.
 
Which boxes does he tick? Ive not seen much of him but when I have I haven’t been impressed..
Catalan, ex Barca, played for DZ, speaks Croatian fluently, team mate with Gvardiol and our spaniards, plays for the Spanish national team, versatile, played AMC, FWR, FWL, MC, ML and AML last season, good with the ball, #21 in the national team, 25 yrs old, release clause...
 
Which creative midfielder? None of them top quality around either and imo this season is the start of Phil’s career in the middle.

FDJ we just need to pay the money or part cash and Laporte’s or Bernie if he wants to go
 
Fair enough.

Ferran Torres, a 37 year old Jesus Navas and Alvaro Morata also play for Spain though. They are pretty average too at the moment tbh.
Aside from the occasional good game from Morata those guys don't really do much of anything. In fairness to Olmo I've seen him impose himself in some matches both for club and country. He's been hurt too much by my standard but at 25 if he stays healthy he has the potential to improve especially under a manager like Pep. Is he my first choice, no, but I could see him playing a role here. I have to say he's a bit better than average...JMO

Phil can become as good a creative MF as anyone, I agree...
 
With Raphina as well, I don't like the idea of paying 60m (which in my opinion, Barca will want) for Barca to then use that cash to come in for Bernardo.

I don't want to give Barca any opportunity to come in for Bernardo. We want as few options for him this summer as possible.

They are signing Felix on loan. Don't see them going for Bernardo if we or others were to give them any money. More likely they will use that money to pay off their alleged Raphina debt to Leeds, and alleged Torres debt to us, if there is anything in those claims.

But other than that?
