Morgan Gibbs-White

[remember arthur mann]

Stars all aligning. 10 midfielders on the pitch for Pep, perfect !

 

[Utter bobbins]

Another 60 million failed midfielder. All aboard

Yawn

 

[BluestBlue]

Got Reijnders, Rodri, Nico, Kovacic, Foden, Bobb, Bernardo Silva, Nico O Reilly, Cherki. No need for him. Where is he going to play?

Well if Kova Bernardo leave then it makes sense. Have a problem with him taking up O Riley mins tho

 

[urban genie]

for me he doesn't start ahead of Foden, Reijinders, Nico, O'Reilly, bobb, Cherki, Marmosh, so seems a waste of money for a squad player who will want out if not played

Bernardo won't be leaving he's just been made captain

Think he starts ahead of O’Reilly and Bobb, not sure that’s a good thing though, you could throw Bernardo in your list too. Agree we don’t need him, and I think he’s a very good player, but thought Reijnders made this a no goer.

O'Reilly is an U21, his minutes will reflect his age.

 

[bluemc]

Football insider about as reliable as a two year old trying to tell you about the laws of physics

Yep. We laugh at anything Football Insider say in relation to the 115 case, and rightly so. We shouldn't decide they are a decent source now just because we're desperate for some transfer activity and they've reported something that some on here consider good news.

At this stage, it seems like Pep is more likely to start you than Nico.

 

[BlueDan91]

Wouldn’t necessarily be averse to this, but given the source is Football Insider I’ll treat it with a pinch of salt.

Wayne who runs FI has some good sources so he'd absolutely report something if he's been told if he believes it in good faith. He was the first to report Potter to West Ham before anyone else.

But they do have a track record of getting things wrong/things not coming to fruition.

 

[Lord Blue]

Could Gundo head to turkey?

Could Kova be off ?

 

[Doc_Testosterone]

Got Reijnders, Rodri, Nico, Kovacic, Foden, Bobb, Bernardo Silva, Nico O Reilly, Cherki. No need for him. Where is he going to play?

He would be better than Nico, Kovacic, O’reilly, Bobb and likely Bernardo.

They’ll always have a bad hit rate regardless of any inside info they may have. They need traffic to generate profit, and they won’t get enough traffic if they only post things they are sure are true

 

[Berti No Show]

He isn't better than McAtee, let alone those lot.

 

[TonyM]

Bernardo won't be leaving he's just been made captain

He should be. Even though he played very well in some of the CWC games and at the end of the season... he is still one of the slowest players in the league.

I'm still holding out hope that Gundogan and Bernardo and Kovacic (once fit) and Akanji all leave before tge window shuts.

New captain should be Cherki imo. One of only a very few in the whole squad who seems to believe in himself and has a never say die attitude.

 

[JC2]

New captain should be Cherki imo.

Fkn ell lad, you been on the sauce?
Never mind Cherki, that's a Clarkie

 

[TonyM]

I know he's young, new and not a starter but imo there's a fire in this lads belly that I don't see elsewhere in the squad.

You see it as soon as he is on the pitch. That should be our standard. Fire. Not old heads keeping things steady.

 

[King Jay]

You can’t be serious. McAtee is nowhere near MGW

Bernardo has all that in spades.

He’s an angry little hobbit.

I'm pretty sure you've just been thawed out of a glacier.
