"The club have no intention, at the moment, of finding another midfielder, despite being heavily linked with Real Madrid star Mateo Kovacic.
Guardiola is said to be happy with his squad and the club have pointed to his track record of switching players from other positions - which means Fabian Delph, Ilkay Gundogan and Danilo are on the frame to be
understudies to Fernandinho"

He would be a different alternative to jorghino though. and I believe real Madrid wants to keep himkovacic would be a good alternative.
confusion here seems to be on his release clause

agreed .... tbf ferna played a box to box at shaktar , but was forced / changed to DM partly due to yaya and has done a great job.
him being 24 and working under Pep hopefully will work wonders IF we get him

This “we must strengthen” after a title win mantra, because we’ve never retained a title before, is hopelessly simplistic. Why would what happened in 2012 have any bearing on the dynamics of this (record breaking) squad?
Just because your first two wives shag your best mate, it doesn’t automatically follow that your third one will.

Kinda agrees with what Sam Lee said.
Strange we are not looking at another DM when this transfer fell through.
On second thoughts, pep probably got it right about no bothering to buy other player. Maybe he felt jorghino was unique and would have improved the squad. Just panick buying to replace him when he for some reason opted to go to Chelsea would just be wasting money and a squad position.

That's true. Maybe pep can change his role to fit us. Still I feel it will be too hard to prise him away from real. Unless the new coach told him directly hd won't play much this season again. Then he might look at other options.agreed .... tbf ferna played a box to box at shaktar , but was forced / changed to DM partly due to yaya and has done a great job.

Paper thin in DM position now, not good.
