No I wouldn’t want him, he isn’t good enough

I’m not saying he isn’t a good player
I’m saying for all the goals and assists he gets I think he probably causes as much chaos in not protecting his defence and is overated
Never turns up in the big games
He is a rat with a shit attitude who thinks he is the team

If he was at any other club barring the red cartel he wouldnt be hardly mentioned its another angle at keeping them in the spotlight.............if he was that good he would have fooked off to a trophy challenging club years ago

Assists records mean little in the grand scheme of things if you win nothing from them. I bet Erling would remove his PL scoring record for most in a season in exchange for another title.

That said, Bruno is a top, top player. When you consider who he has just over taken, its so impressive. I firmly believe KDB is the best midfielder the league has seen and Henry arguably the best forward. So if you've just beaten their record, you obviously have some serious quality. "But but but loads were set pieces" - and? That just proves he's quality from a dead ball. Wish we had someone that was!!!

I defended you in the West Ham thread but I've just seen another of your weird posts in the Co-Op live thread, now this.
Are you just desperately trying to be obnoxious?
Your description of fernandez is frankly a joke.
First KDB had an assist wrongly taken off him to ensure Henry was beaten. (They said it took a deflection)
Second, the so called assist yesterday was an own goal.
Finally, this so called top player would not get in any top European team. When he was desperate to leave at the end of last season, not one club stepped forward to inquire about him.

I've never once said he is anywhere near as good as KDB or Henry.

But he's a very good player that's equalled or beaten two GREATS for assists over a season. I'm mature enough to give credit where it's due. It's an exceptional individual achievement that's rarely done, that's why only two others have done it and both in the top 5 players to ever grace the league.

We are not 13 year olds here. If doesn't make you any less of a city fan to acknowledge a good achievement from a non city player at a rival club.

If a dipper broke Haaland's record, I'd say fair fucks and well done because it takes some doing.

Have you actually watched a compilation of his assists? They're not from amazing set pieces. There's a few where he just floats in a deep cross and someone does really well with it. There's one where his 'set piece' is knocking it a yard to someone who blasts it into the top corner. It's not like the sort of thing Declan Rice has been doing all season.

So what you’re actually saying is, a rag player has been overhyped yet again. I’m truly staggered.

His 'assists' are very different to Henry/ KDB. He has the raw numbers tbf, but the amount coming from dead ball situations makes it much less impressive - nowhere near the football brains of the other two.

It's surprising how much Keane seeks out the social media/celebrity clickbait limelight now given how much he used to berate this sort of stuff. Shows him up for the attention-seeking hypocrite he really is.
 
Two rag captains current and former butting heads. One who’s turned himself into a parody character of himself being grumpy and forthright and also admitted to going out onto the pitch to purposely hurt and end the career of his fellow pros.

The other constantly haranguing the ref, laying on the floor and subbed himself when his team were 7 down at Anfield because he didn’t fancy it.

Compare and contrast to some of the captains we have paying tribute to Pep the last few days. Kompany, Gundo, Fernandinho, Bernardo Silva, all leaders who gave it all on the pitch with no snide tactics which the two rags display. There’s a difference in how you behave in each footballing organisation, one which is a billion in debt and doesn’t compete for the big trophies. The other which has just said farewell to a manager that he changed English football with 20 trophies in ten years.
