We are struggling to get a fee agreed for de ligt. Can't see us opening negotiations for another Bayern player.
Season loan with option to buy though.....
Agreed. When its not going right for him he can be truly awful. He is an incredibly frustrating player, despite his incredible ability.Fernandes is touching 30. As good as he is, especially to all the starts...been inconsistent for a while, was poor 2/3 of last season and despite the work rate isnt ideal captain for me. I'm not surprised by CAF reaction, but personally decent price should consider a salw
On paper, we could make a long-term play by selling Bruno and bringing in Xavi Simons. Possibly similar fees while we get younger and maybe a player with more long-term upside. Simons would certainly fit the age profile of our forward line better whereas Bruno might be past his peak before Garnacho, Hojlund, Zirkzee etc reach theirs.
It would be a bold call to make though and might leave us a bit short in experience though Bruno hardly exudes composure and leadership.
A right back who can cover left back would come in handy given the issues on that side last season. Interesting West Ham are also in the mix given their interest in Wan Bissaka.I would love Mazroui. Great competition for Dalot, and can cover at LB as well. Also inverts really well into midfield, and can overlap for wingers. But his injury record is a concern right?
Give us Ugarte and yous can have him
If people want to use the words injury and prone - Mazraoui is a good player to use them on.....
We cant afford to lose Bruno - the only experienced player we can truly rely on.
Herpes bo burpees, banana Fofana furpees, herpes. Do not want.
He signed a new deal in April 2022, contracted until and becomes a free agent in 2026. Where is the noise about him leaving coming from, is he angling for a new contract? With all the new signing and the INEOS hand on the tiller, you'd think Bruno would be happier than ever to be captaining this side. Selling him would be worse than the Onana-in-for-DeGea debacle.We cant afford to lose Bruno - the only experienced player we can truly rely on.
A 30 year-old who plays like he's 24, has provided 54 goals, 40 assists, in 159 matches, in a team that couldn't hit a cow's ass with a banjo. Fernandinho played for City until he was 38. Bruno looks in that mould.Do you think Bruno is the difference for us to make top 4 spot? Given the signings we have made so far and expected more players to arrive before the end of the transfer window
Personally it’d be an unwise decision to turn down £80m+ for a 30 year old where we are not close to challenge the league in the next two years.

No, you've got it all wrong. If the first two letters are ever the same, you drop them both and say the name like Fofana, Fofana drop the F, ofana.
So you'd have: Fofana, Fofana, Bofana, Bo-na-na-fanna, Ofana, fi-fi-mo Mofana, Fofana.
Agreed, you could just about get Neves or Wharton with that money. Would be a great long-term decision.Do you think Bruno is the difference for us to make top 4 spot? Given the signings we have made so far and expected more players to arrive before the end of the transfer window

I don’t share the same optimism, realistically how many players are like Fernandinho and Ronaldo? Players can deteriorate very quickly, i.e. Casemiro is our prime example.A 30 year-old who plays like he's 24, has provided 54 goals, 40 assists, in 159 matches, in a team that couldn't hit a cow's ass with a banjo.

I don't think the name game was made with these types of name in mindDon´t forget Mofarah.
Thanks for the advice. Still don’t want herpes. It’s a sore point.No, you've got it all wrong. If the first two letters are ever the same, you drop them both and say the name like Fofana, Fofana drop the F, ofana.

In that case herpes isn't a person's name so you can't play the name game with it.Thanks for the advice. Still don’t want herpes. It’s a sore point.
