It's Quiet Thread 15 - Txiki Blinders

[David Kloppesh]

A counterargument then?

there is no chance for Sterling to move to Spurs, unless they pay him Messi's wages.

 

[Coatigan]

If anyone offered us £50m for him, I’d snap their hands off.

30m would not ne that absurdly far off either. I agree after the season he has had he should be worth more. He is however 30, in the last two years of his contract.

Phil Jones.

@hgblue ?

1st jack gaughan
Now Martin Blackburn
Something is happening with bernado
Crazy summer incoming

Martin Blackburn is usually spot on with City news. I believe this is a go’er

 

[levets]

Blackburn is reliable apparently.

Extremely reliable

Is there anyone Barcelona don't want?

 

[Dr Jacoby]

Grealish, Foden + De Bruyne =

 

[Invisible Man's Bandage]

The only way I could accept Grealish playing for us is that there is a contractual obligation on his part to never wear a head band.

 

[Tugay One Cup]

As in offering him to Villa? That's a hysterical headline if so.

 

[JamesMCFC]

If he doesn't like Manchester he ain't gonna like Birmingham is he.

Benjamin Mendy

 

[The1nvisibleMan]

Apparently this is just terrible aggregating from City Chief (which happens frequently) and it says Bernardo is the one who would leave for Grealish to come in

 

[FromPollockToSilva]

As in offering him to Villa? That's a hysterical headline if so.

I read it that way at first too, but I have to assume "offering" means making it known that he's available to interested parties

 

[kaz7]

Ha, you really posted that shit , lol

Are you TRUE BLUE NO 1 ?

Phil the face

If we were trying to Moneyball it, yes now would be the time to sell. But we rarely cash in on our players unless they are unhappy, and there's no sign of it with Gündy. He'll almost certainly stay to the end of his contract and leave on his own terms, like most of our long-serving players

But all the "ten year players" had multiple managers during their time with us. Most managers (including Pep) have argued that players get bored of hearing the same voice, and Pep is notoriously intense too.

Pep is heading into his sixth season, so he's in new territory, and by the end of next season he could well be our second longest serving manager ever. If he's planning to stay, then he likely needs to refresh the dressing room even if it means selling players that have been successful.
