Fukin sad :(

 

[blue by birth]

Just after he signed I was in Barcelona with her indoors and I had my City shirt on...got stopped by a Dortmund fan who told me we has signed a fabulous player and to look after him.
I asked him how good would Gundo be for us and he said we would love him and that he was his favourite player.
I have to admit he knew his stuff...Gundo has been an amazing player for us and I'm gutted he's leaving.
Mr Whippy you are a legend...scored some fabulous and important goals for us..good luck

A high quality player, hugely underrated, and for me, a modern day City legend. Thanks for your hard work Ilkay

Legend

It was his choice and his wife ! There have been no contract talks he was always going ! He had served us well and should go with our blessing, think he wanted a new challenge and change of lifestyle

there's a message in there to all you young 'un's

Great player big loss that

THERE HAVE BEEN NO CONTRACT TALKS? WHY??????????????

There respected his desire to move on for a different challenge and new life ! And look at the club he has gone too ? Pep , tycksi and sorreno ! Sorry can’t spell their names ? The Barca connections! Losing David silva I think was more gutting but we moved on from him ! And when we lose Bernie more gutting ! And this is why i abused the 1894 group on the boycott of the community shield! Because we should be enjoying this while time in our history while it’s good ! I remember the Liverpool team in the eighties coming to Maine rd and smashing us if you would have said they would not win the league in the next 30 years I would have said not a chance? We have blessed blue boys so keep enjoying this ride !

Calm down haha

Stop laughing. I'm very pissed off. In my youth I worshipped the original number 8 - Colin the King. No one has come close to being City's number 8 since. And we're letting him leave on a free. WTF

Fukin sad :(

Don’t think like that. Think of what he’s done.
Also, think that these days players go FROM City TO Barca to retire.

That’s where we are.

Absolutely loved the guy.....exceptional player, exceptional captain and an exceptional person by all accounts. Very humble and did a lot of unsung work for various charities around Manchester. Thanks for everything, some truly epic performances and wishing him and his family good luck and all the very best.
