Milan's just as far from Lisbon as is Manchester. I see that was a load of bollocks then. Maybe he just wants a new challenge and more regular football then, nicer climate etc.

Fuck AC Milan though, had enough of these Italians taking the piss with transfer fees. Like selling a used car and having a load of travellers turn up at your doorstep.

Maybe he just wants a new start outside of England after the Mendy tweet witch hunt ? He's never hidden or given less than 100% but it's definitely had a knock on him - like he's had a weight on his shoulders and made him slightly subdued.

The winter months in Milan are similar to here and it's a quite ugly city to boot.

its either raining or snowing from November through to end of Feb/mid March, and very cold.

maybe bernardo has come to the end of working with pep, bernardo for all his graft is a flair player, that hasn't stopped him grafting, but maybe he just hasn't got it in him to carry on the workrate ?not a slight on bernardo .

He comes across as someone that's clever and interested in the place that he lives. Often that means wanting to experience different places/jobs, particularly when you're young.

The Mendy incident may well have hit him hard too, but I suspect he's just not the type that finds somewhere comfortable and stays till he gets put out to pasture.

This source is very very unreliable.

If the deal suggested was a 2 year loan and then additional money it's a farce. Hope it's money up front.

Put a t at the begining and add an r after the u!

For, probably , more important, context, my father is coming up for 86, he's looking frailer every time I see him, my wife's mother passed away on Friday leaving her without any parents and I still miss my Granddad who was (ahem) a massive Blue.

I couldn't give a tinker's cuss if the info you provide turns out to go in a different direction than anticipated, it provides a welcome relief to what may be, at best, a dreary day.

I wish your Dad many more years, and may you enjoy them with him.

Thank you mate, very kind words.

Sorry for both you and your wife's recent loss.

Best wishes to your family.

I think it was the nicer climate which was the big issue for Bernardo

However I don't think Milan is much different to Manchester through the winter which is obviously the main period of the football season

Agree...Milan is north Italy & the couple of times I've visited there over the years I certainly would not class it as a Mediterranean climate. Pissed down more times than I care to remember.

However, definitely different culture compared to Manc land especially on nights out & lets just say its more civilised over there!

Reckon the weather/lifestyle card is being over exaggerated & he simply wants to play more regular first team football which isn't currently guaranteed for Bernie at City - sad to see him go if true, as he's a fan favourite.

You do know that Eugenie Bouchard is an avid Bluemooner don't you?

There's room for both!

If Bernardo goes to AC Milan then I wish him all the best. Really really don't think we can cope without laporte though as Stones always gets a knock and Ake just isn't good enough imo

 

[Cobwebcat]

Somebody posted this on the Kane thread :)

Yeah interesting. @tolmie's hairdoo

Sometimes info outside of the football World can be the best.

Pep commenting on the transfer was unusual and Spurs didn’t complain.

Can’t see us selling both Bernardo and Laporte this window. IMO Bernardo will be the one to go, Laporte seems like he’s come round to the fact he’ll be staying for another year

Cheers mate, I'm genuinely touched at that. Emotions all over the shop if truth be told.

 

[Cityinmud]

The sooner Saul leaves atleti ,Bernardo can get his dream Spain move. Chelsea and United are heavily interested

That's just greedy but good on you.

Grief is the price we pay for love.

I read that somewhere, probably in the 99p Card Factory...seems an unnecessary price to pay.

The saying, not the 99p card!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hope you get the time you need.

Cheers Peace, it had a small effect but maybe I still need a bit more cheering up. :-)
