When he signed, one of the journos stated Gundo's contract would be extended if he played a certain amount of games/minutes. Wouldn't surprise me if he's near that now. His comeback hasn't panned out as expected but I hope he sticks around to become Pep's assistant coach

Hmmm. So Pep told City he wanted 2 midfielders in the summer, saw us make no bids for Bruno G, no attempts to persuade release clause Zubimendi to join us and was content we would sign no midfielders until Gundo made himself available?

Totally agree with what you have wrote here. Its time to be ruthless. Tough decisions are needed and some that may raise a few eyebrows in the process.Ederson, Walker and Gundo are very likely to leave. KDB too unless he shows he can be able to stay fit for an extended period. Bernardo has wanted out for years, would make a lot of sense to replace him next summer and get some fresh legs while we still can get a little money for him. Can see one of Stones/Ake going as you can’t rely on either, which is a problem when you have a small squad. Grealish might be the most unlikely one to leave from that list, but no goals in 44 games is an incredibly bad return no matter how you look at it.
I think next summer (and January too for that matter) it’s time to be ruthless and make some tough decisions. Squad right noe is too thin and too old, Rodri being injured isn’t the only problem. In Peps first season he got rid of Joe Hart who was a fan favourite, we need to see some of that ruthlessness. We need a rebuild similar to 17/18 and 18/19 season
And a Haaland back-up!We need two midfielders and a defender who sees danger and who can head the ball!

Yeah but I'd be surprised if we buy 2/3 but I bet it be 2 pep should have excepted the striker from Celtic in the summer big mistake that! One thing with him is his energy and press is very good

Yep, I certainly wouldn't extend his playing contract for the 2nd season, he's come back playing as though he's aged 10 yearsWhen he signed, one of the journos stated Gundo's contract would be extended if he played a certain amount of games/minutes. Wouldn't surprise me if he's near that now. His comeback hasn't panned out as expected but I hope he sticks around to become Pep's assistant coach
