We bought Ferna at age 28 and it's not bad return isn't?
Not saying Kimmich we stay for us that long like Ferna but it's still posibility.

Ferna is a unicorn!
Not everyone is Ferna or going to age like Ferna.
FFS just look at Yaya.. bossed the league with 20 goals in 2014 and by 2016 he couldn't even press.. was seen walking and gasping for air in the CL semi vs RM.
And sadly I suspect that's what's likely to happen to Rodri since he is being overused so much. We need to be very very picky with our profile in who we get for DM!
Think im with you. A good player. Would have been an amazing signing 4 or 5 years ago but just doesnt feel right to me. And totally at odds with our usual transfer strategy.NOOOOOOO!!!!
This would set us back about 5 years..
If a player can't hold down a DM position in the Bundesliga which is a much easier league.. how will he hold it down in the PL?
Hope and a prayer?
And we can't afford to become a retirement home.. that's how we become as stupid as the rags.. who bought Casemiro with 1 year left, Varane with 2 years left.
We should be targetting 22-23 year olds, not 29 year olds or just promote from the academy. Atleast they can grow into the role.
Also how do you figure Kimmich's salary increase along with a new contract for Rodri, Foden and Haaland when we're heading into new regulations where only 70% of revenue can be spent on wages (down from 90% this year).
And we still have Cancelo's 300k per week on our books till *checks notes* 2026-27!
Big no from me!
You can add Schweinsteiger to Casemiro/Varane aswell. Dont see Kimmich wanting to come here if Rodri/Walker are still in situ….
That was a long time ago now (Fernandinho). Would be very unusual for us to go for him. Only significant outfield player over 25/26 i can remember us signing since Pep, is Kovacic…. Its not our usual strategy!!We bought Ferna at age 28 and it's not bad return isn't?

The thing with Kimmich is he opens up many permutations in team selection and different ways for us to play, as well as solving our main problem of providing cover as a 6 for Rodri. While I ‘d be all for a Guimaraes or similar if the club went that way, he could only play as an 8 or a 6 and doesn’t give us the options to play different ways,Kimmich would.

30 just after the turn of the year and, in my eyes, already past his peak and people talking of a five year contract is a massive no in capital letters. Imagine him at 31 with 3 yrs left on a big contract, he would be getting the abuse being given to Phillips right now.
And we still have Cancelo's 300k per week on our books till *checks notes* 2026-27!
Lol. Cancelo is not on £300k a week ffs.
And we could likely get a player well past his peak, on huge wages for 5 years. We are not the rags.We could get 5 years from a world-class, versatile player like Kimmich. He is ideal for our system.

Where are you getting this idea that Kimmich is "past it"? He's one of the best players in the world.

We aren’t run like the rags were, so either we won’t get him, or if we do it will be for very good reasons. Wouldn’t worry about it.And we could likely get a player well past his peak, on huge wages for 5 years. We are not the rags.
Cue the Phillips we don’t always get it right comments.
We usually do.

If he's that good, why is Bayern so keen on Palinha? And they've been keen over a year now.
Must be a reason..

You seem to have a lot of negative posts towards the club this summer mate?

Your opinion based on? Do you watch him a lot? He played over 50 games last season in all competitions and was one of Bayern's best players. I just don't know what you're basing this on outside of a strange anxiety about Man United.
Is Bernardo Silva past it? Kimmich had a better season than him.
Kimmich is refusing to sign a new contract at Bayern. Same with Alphonso Davies. I would imagine Bayern would love to keep both players. Kimmich for me would be an excellent addition and the only issues are wages and what Bayern are going to ask if they were to sell this summer.
