Never really impressed me, he's a good impact player but not good enough to hold down a regular starting berth in a top side.

Nothing against Pedro, he is a good player - but isn't this summer about rejuvenation and long-term planning? Pedro is very much in the Navas/Fernandinho/Negredo category of short-term(ish) signing. De Bruyne offers years more and IMO is a more impactful player. Pedro seems to have lost a yard of pace too and is not much of a dribbler. He is a smart and talented player though.

If we are going for Pedro I will be surprised if he is as an alternative to De Bruyne.
If Pedro comes then one of Nasri or Navas is leaving in my opinion.

He's just going to have a similar role to the one he has at Barca if we got KDB as well. When fit Sterling, Silva, De Bruyne would be first names on the team sheet in attack leaving Pedro as impact sub in the main.

I can't see us signing him mate, it looks like he wants game time which we can't guarantee if we get De Bruyne.

Scum bound, and why we were even mentioned is just mischief making by the gutter press. Just gives them a false angle to say how he snubbed us to join those bastards.

Or someone wants to make sure United pay the full €30m instead of pissing around like they seem to be ATM?

He's 28. Just turned it last month as well. We bought Fernandinho at an older age for more money. It's hardly old. Probably at least 5 good seasons left b
