Matheus Nunes

[samuelyeboah]

Didnt he lose his mind and get a red on the weekend

 

[LesBleuMiserable]

I’d love this guy. Did the red scousers also want him a while ago?

 

[jrb]

Not for me.

Yeah. Whatchu gonna do about it?

Yeh stupid red card 95th min

 

[RayCTID]

Don't agree.

No real links up until today. Paqueta seemed to be the one and it seems we are scratching around for cover which isn't an ideal situation to be in. The only thing in favour for Nunes is he will be more available than Eze and the other targets.

1 goal & 1 assist in 40 games for Wolves. Very good ball carrier and works hard but offers next to nothing going forward.

Sounds similar to Kovacic.

Sounds similar to Kovacic.

That's what I thought when I saw the links. Good player but I'd prefer someone who does more in the final third.

Seem to recall we were linked with him before he joined Wolves but that could have been agent talk

I saw it different mate. The killer point Rodri made in his interview was he'd spoken to the club about it, so why then tell the press?

I'm as certain as I can be that Rodri's comments were for Philips' benefit. Since then there's been speculation about WHU, Liverpool & Bayern all reviving their interest in him, & it seems we're looking to buy midfield replacements for him too.

Philips has been sidelined much the same as Cancelo & Laporte were. It's evident the writing's on the wall.

Imagine fans calling on Pep to make substitutions vs Newcastle last week, & Pep saying afterwards he couldn't because he didn't have any options available on the bench.

If I was Palmer or Philips, it would've been a sobering moment for me regarding my City future. \0/

I agree with everything else you've said mate. I think Phillips needs to be looking elsewhere and can't believe (aside from the fact he's on guaranteed good money for doing fuck all) that he's not looking to better himself/play regularly at another club.

I just don't think a teammate will have gone out of his way to have a public dig at him because he's knackered and not being backed-up the way he should be by a replacement in the squad.

It's not Rodri's place to be calling other players out and he'll know that. I can see why you see it the way you have, though. Differing viewpoints and all that...

 

[Skrastins]

He is a great cover for Rodri, i rather him and next year get Wirtz

He seems to have a petulent side but Peope will sort that out no probs I think.

 

[AliAdel]

Top player.



Maybe even too good to be benched by Rodri.

Doubt Phillips is willing to leave the bench and play professional football elsewhere in order for this to happen.

Too good to be benched by Rodri? I’m not drinking what you are

 

[BringBackSwales]

They bought him two years ago for £38m. I can't imagine them agreeing to £42m.

Aren’t they financially in the shit?

 

[Keeper!]

Very much, if we genuinely want him they will deal.

It's not his job.

I agree with everything you've reasoned which begs the question why Rodri did that interview at all? The club already knew his viewpoint, so the interview makes zero sense, especially as Rodri doesn't strike anyone as the type.

This is what made me immediately think there was more to it, & lo & behold 10 days later there's reports we're looking for midfield replacements, & clubs previously interested in Kalvin, have reportedly been on the blower again.

Summat's going on mate... \0/

It's down to what Pep feels he needs/wants...

 

[glyntowen]

watched the Brighton game on Sat and he did nothing apart from the red card, didn't stand out as some one we should go for

played OK against the rags, most outlets gave him a 7 as they had players who stood out more
some of the Wolves fan sites don't seem to like him for some reason

Pep spoke highly of him in the past and red scouse linked with him earlier this summer

given they paid 45m you would be expecting 60m or 90m as it's us, that would be a no from me
