Why did we let Zinchenko go?

[urban genie]

Agreed but that's what he cost the Chavs

because the idiots paid it, no one else was that stupid

Lots of revisionist nonsense in this thread. I liked Zin but for much of his time with us he was a liability defensively. We couldn't promise he'd be first choice so understandably he wanted to move on. I think we miss Ferna's leadership far far more than Zin.

West Ham away beng a prime example - responsible for both goals. That game could have cost us dear.

100% this. Ferna is possibly a bigger loss than the Kuns and David Silva's of the world IMO. His leadership qualities and what he brought to the squad are so hard to replicate.

I do see big leadership potential in Rodri though....

If Curcurella (spelling) is worth 65 million, so was Zinc. We massively undersold him.

The Cucurella fee was a joke hence why we pulled out of a deal, Zinchenko was a fair price for a fair player.

Nah don't agree Arse got 26 year old bargain.

Without doubt a great lad to have around your club, but the fact remains he wanted to leave and play more.

Nothing we could do, the only mistake was not bringing in a replacement before he left.

Maybe Pep doesn't want more criticism ( Just kidding )

Ha ha. Hanx! They are still good live but I guess the time comes when rock bands just need to call it a day.

I had Hanx the live album. Jake Burns looks like he's ate Jake Burns these days.

The legend and leader Ferna as he is, was well past his sell by date for his last two seasons with us. Revisionism is not only about Zinny.

Stats show Guardiola might regret selling Zinchenko to Arsenal

Man City’s 2-1 defeat to Man Utd saw Arsenal go eight points clear, and the Gunners’ success will hurt with Oleksandr Zinchenko impressing.
