Poor lad chomping at the bit to impress pep then 45 minutes of kova strutting around put him right down the pecking orderKovacic? Stones? Gvardiol if need be? Phillips? ;-)
You're obsessed with cover for Rodri.Rodri cover?!
Nah! He joined for the same reason Sterling joined Chelsea. They wanted a big club where they were stars. Or at a minimum, guaranteer 1st team choice.Too this day,I still say leroy was bullied into joining bayern the German mafia Hoeness Rumminegge etc got in his head
Those two and keep Silva.Sane and Gvardiol in and we are set!
Yet we bid 90m for RiceDon’t think we are looking for any.
Palmer not good enough. Bernie can play wide or the middle same with Foden. Plenty of games for everyone.Does that affect Foden and/or bernardo though? Certainly Palmer would be screwed. Is that fair?
Dream scenario and a good chance we win 2/3 trophies again. Sane is the one that got away. The team now is so strong psychically with the added Cb. We would not get caught out so much with a winger in the team. Mahrez for all his strengths was not great at tracking back. Once we turn over the ball and counter, sane would be lethal.Those two and keep Silva.

Both didn't have that here in their last season. Same never did...

Is that true? Where did you hear that? I thought it was mums influence on a young lad? Hardly bullying - you seem to know more so please tell us.Utter rubbish, he was bullied into moving back to Germany

I‘d be tempted to try the rest of the playing, medical and catering staff before I got to Phillips as a direct replacement for Rodri

didnt they threaten not to take him to euro's or world cup if not playing in germanyToo this day,I still say leroy was bullied into joining bayern the German mafia Hoeness Rumminegge etc got in his head
Don’t think it’s the fee it’s how the deal stacks up.. how much upfront, repayment schedule etc and structure of additional payments bonuses etc. Makes a difference to operational budgets for both sides.That’s what is making the window strange for me? Obviously we have valuations on players but have already made significant sales this summer, seemingly we’re happy to do either £100m on Bellingham or £90m on Rice but now seem hesitant on the fee for Gvardiol?
