It's Quiet 18 - Wanna ring the bell?

[waspish]

Cancelo is already gone, we replaced him with Lewis already.
Laporte to Gvardiol.
Gundo will resign.
Bernie will go, irreplaceable but we will sign someone who is proven.
Phillips im not sure if he'll go. Wants to prove it and signing Kovacic covers KP if doesn't play.
Mahrez unexpected. But like Sterling last year may jump on the opportunity. Like Sterling we had a plan going forward because expected him to leave the year after probably the same as Mahrez.

Yep that’s how I see it

If I did, I wouldn't be asking mate. Go on, enlighten me...

Why would Pep want to leave you ask?

I don't think there are many managers out there who put in quite what Pep does. This is his 10th consecutive season in management, which doesn't sound a lot, but with his profile certainly is. From his time at Bayern to us he's been criticised and questioned about the CL.

He's won everything else. Domestic treble. Three in a row. Complete the treble and why not leave? You can't follow up a treble with anything other than a less successful season realistically. Isn't it the perfect season to bring someone else in, new ideas, when they have that grace?

These thoughts will go through his head if we win. Hopefully his elite mentality means he has his eyes on even more - 4 in a row for example and does stay.

My general point is, we've got plenty of players who will make their minds up in the next week. If we win on Saturday it may change their decision for better or worse and vice versa if we lose. And Pep is no different in my opinion.

Bernardo and Mahrez leaving warrants two winger signings. Foden moves in centrally. Kovacic isn’t one of those signings

 

[argyle]

Too young. Isn’t he about 32?

Still young. He isn't 37 like ronaldo.

 

[Gaz (FMwkdsoul)]

Kulusevski if Mahrez wants that move please.

 

[kaz7]

Hahahaha

Do you lot think we are letting Cancelo, laporte ,Gundog,Bernardo ,Phillips and Mahrez go in one window.
Get in the real world,where are we going to find 6 players of their quality.
Carry on like this and we will all be going to York away again.
Your like kids in a sweet shop.

Out of that list, Phillips is the only one that would surprise me if he left.

I can see a fair few players leaving. Particularly if we win the CL and as such the Treble. Don't think they will necessarily be replaced like for like, or at possibly all in some cases.

Cancelo is gone. Laporte likely, Bernardo likely. Gundo, as it stands is going, hopefully that changes. Mahrez I can see being tempted away.

 

[Dax777]

Are we writing felix off?

Yes

 

[tolmie's hairdoo]

Whom do we bring in as your replacement

Walter Mitty?

Agreed. Just can't see us releasing Mahrez, no matter the fee. Also ask yourself, does Taylor Ward fancy living in Saudi for a few years? We are seeing what Influence spouses can have with the Bernardo situation.
