Can’t remember a summer there was so much uncertainty around so many players at our club.

Bernardo wants out
Laporte wants out
sterling 2 years left if Doesn’t sign new contract we will look to sell
gundogan rumours Barca have talked to his agent
mahrez same rumours Barca have talked to his agent
fern still not signed or left
jesus apparently unhappy with playing time
aguero gone

Obviously we won’t lose all of the above but I can’t remember last time we had so many player seemingly open to leaving.
If you believe twitter .....dont
 


Dunno how true....
Interview from Mahrez himself recently saying he wants to stay or doesn't want to go anywhere else.

Whilst Twitter is an absolute cesspit full of morons you would be very naive to not at least acknowledge the various reports that certain players want to leave. Particularly when in Bernardo‘s case it’s coming straight from his agent to castles and Laporte has publicly stated he wasn’t happy with game time last season.
 
Can we just change our name to Barcelona FC? Surprised Carson isn't linked with them yet !
 
I see the trolling Twitter sewer rats have been at it again......

how many times do half of you lot have to be conned by these fucking desperate wannabe know nowts peddling their bullshit for consumption by the gullible and witless.

it beggars belief people cling on to this utter nonsense concocted at this time of year for the needy transfer watchers and set out as plausibly deniable or rumour - some class it as light entertainment, but if thats your poison i'd rather tune it to some old Morcombe and Wise. Everyone to their own I suppose but i'd rather stick pins in my eyes that check twitter out for genuine information.
 
I would love it if Newcastle do get taken over. I welcome more clubs challenging for the title with limitless coffers as that means more of a chance that the rags, liverpool, chelsea, spurs, and arsenal are disrupted and kept at arms reach. We're run so well I just can't see us drifting away from the top positions, whereas in the last 10 years all of the aforementioned clubs have had major wobbles. MAYBE when Pep leaves we could be vulnerable the more clubs are challenging for the top 4/title, but I trust we will have a contingency lined up.

Great news for Newcastle and even better news if they throw shed loads at us for their statement signings.
I’d agree if it wasn’t Newcastle.
The ffp, letter signing wankers.
 


Dunno how true....
He said yesterday he is staying , this is just clickbait and noise, all of it
 
I hope Barca is not trying to offload their flops like Coutinho and injury champion Dembele to City.

Nobody is being needy, they say it how they hear it. Maybe you are the one that is not prepared to hear what you don’t want to hear.

What is bernardo’s role in the team ? Cover for Kdb or jack of all trades that plays everywhere. People can want to change scenes, he is 26 or 27 and believes he is better than that. You can’t like all the Grealish and kane rumors then believe that all the rumors of our players looking for other options are bullshit.
 
I like Rodri, he played pretty much every game of our winning run and was great until he hit a wall at the end of the season. I've seen people describe him as a defensive midfielder or a screening player, which is not primarily his job. He's a deep-lying playmaker, he starts moves and knits the game together for us. Just look at the number, variety, and accuracy of his passing. That's what he was primarily signed for. When you dominate the ball like we do you need passers first in every position, including goalkeeper.

However, with that being said, there are games where having a different option in midfield would be advantageous. Someone with the energy and ability to put out fires all over the pitch. Although that player would probably play alongside Rodri (as Kanté always plays next to a deep-lying playmaker) rather than instead of him. A player that can do both like prime Fernandinho is unbelievably rare.
 
Totally agree re:Rodri. The other thing he completely seems to lack is the spark to move forward with the ball when play dictates...something I've always envied about Ferna's game is he reads it so well both on the defensive and when the opportunity arises to attack. Its not necessarily what you need in a DM, but it does make him such a dynamic player and one that's near impossible to replace.

Rodri on the other hand, has shown to be eminently replaceable and I wouldn't shed a tear if we found a way to move on from him.

Good point re Fern but of course he played further forward in his Shaktar days so he doesn’t get vertigo as he passes the halfway line.
 


Dunno how true....

Alvarez is a shit stirrer. Shame I thought we had seen the back of him now Kun has gone
