Statues at the ground

[mattcity5]

So.......

Sergio, David and Komps are undoubtedly legends at the club. But how many of this current lot are going to surpass them in terms of achievements by the time they leave us? How many of them have already surpassed them?

Kev, Stones, Rodri, Ruben, Walker, Ake, Bernardo, Ederson, and Phil. Can't all end up with statues can they?

(Not forgetting the Norwegian chap upfront, but he's only been here 2 seasons and a mere treble and potential double doesn't quite cut it these days!)

Out of the current squad I think only KDB and Pep will get one.

Definitely Pep. Kev, Phil and maybe Rodri (for the Champions League winner alone).The rest will probably get plaques at the training complex

Good point about Pep, but...

No Ederson? 6 PLs so far plus CL?

Dias and Ake have 4 PLs out of 4.

Foden's got 6 already and from the academy. He's potentially going to be our greatest ever player.

Rodri? Has won so much, scored big goals and nobody can beat us when he plays!

I know we can't give them all statues, but watching the presentation after the match it struck me just how much each of these guys has achieved. So far.

For a number of reasons, mostly yet to be known, I think only Pep is nailed on at this point. Unless you find a way of honouring the entire treble winning team with something pretty innovative.

We should consider naming the expanded North Stand after Pep. Only 3 managers have been in the hot seat longer than him

And the way he's transformed the club has been phenomenal.

Won't be able to fucking move for statues if we're not careful. Problem is that once you start handing out legend status where the fuck do you stop?

Problem now is the club has set a precedent with doing one for Bell, Lee and Summerbee. . You could argue anyone who has played in all the seasons with the 100 points through to 4 in a row are deserving of one, plus Pep.

I’m gonna get pelters but Bell, Lee and Summerbee’s level of success wasn’t anywhere near this group. Dinho 5 titles and no statue.

instead of statues what about naming meals in the ground, i suggest

Fod and Chips
PEPper Pie
Ruben Sandwhich

You joke but it will very soon be getting silly. The statue side of things needs thinking about very carefully.
