That record means nothing tho? They were scraping 7th before Conte came and he’s one of the reasons why.

4-4-2. A destroyer and a box to box in the middle. Big man/little man in the box. Two pacy tricky fuckers down the wing. You know you want to Pep.
We have to demand more from Txiki, this is a lazy move, because of the release clause, coz all we know is that this guy is incapable of negotiating...
He just delivered us fucking Haaland when every club going was after him. He knows how to negotiate.

Tottenham beat us 3 times in the last 5 matches, Hojberg played in those games I don't see what that counts for exactly. Eric Dier also played in those matches along with Ben Davies and probably Oliver Skipp too, So should we sign those as well?Hojbjerg has won 3 times against City in the last 5 matches ;)
For me, as I said before, it's kind of ridiculous to pay more than 35m£ for him. We could easily find better options on the market. And don't treat players as a backup. He was injured 3/4 of the season. His stats aren't so good. One or two injuries and we have a problem, so high quality is demanded. I would be more interested in Ruben Neves, to be honest. For me, he is better than Phillips.
Ruben Neves isn't a holding midfield plater either, Both completely different players.
Price tags have nothing to do with player quality. However much he costs if he's the right profile (which imo, he is) it makes sense. Also not like the price tag in question is something crazy. Good money for an experienced player, healthy competition for Rodri.
I reckon if he joins, by Christmas most will be saying he’s a great player
underated by everybody it seems but Leeds, their fans, Southgate and most importantly Pep
I hope so.
Just strikes me as the kind of player that Everton or Villa would try to sign.
Times and telegraph reported a couple months ago that the price is 60 mil. Which has then been reported when united were interested.
Yeah its a bit weird one that the price now is 35m with the clause if they reported that a couple of months ago.. (that would come into effect 3 out of 5 years into his contract? in the summer)
A top 4 clause, a "City clause". No clause. I have no idea.
