His workrate is nowhere near as good but that would be down to Pep and his team to change.
Plus he wouldn't try and leave every year.

I'd take Maddison at the expense of Silva. As mentioned previously I think we've already had Bernardos best years and he basically isn't up for it like he used to be

That said, can't see it happening and keeping Bernardo isn't a bad thing

Last summer i was delighted Sterling went, was upset to lose Jesus but was convinced we had a major upgrade bringing Haaland and Alvarez in.
Whilst i don't particularly want to lose Bernardo and I've loved Gundo from the off I'll be well chuffed if they go and are replaced by Bellingham and Maddison.

Not bad replacements at all. And add to the quota as well.

We need a revamp, I think we'll go big in the summer and put our rivals back in their place.

Loads of City players on Cancelo’s Instagram post putting hearts and wishing him well. Weird for a guy that’s fallen out with everyone in training.

FC Barcelona sent an offer to Manchester City to sign Bernardo Silva on loan, but the English club rejected the offer. He won't be leaving Manchester City in the next few hours. [Record]


At what point we are going to break contact with these cunts?
Every window we hear about some shit like this, they you read about Laporta moaning that we have money.

Bernardo needs to get a new agent. Or realise he’s not as good as he thinks he is.

He’s wanted to move for two years and 4 windows now and we’ve not had a proper offer at all.

Are they just the ones you saw? There’s also Laporte and a few others.

I didn’t say, “all City players”. You must have misread.

So it's all fine and dandy for Chelsea to spend 600 million, and very little scrutiny.
Ok so.

Let them.
The more they spend the merrier for me.
It will end very badly for them. Already out of the 7/8 January signings, only 3 can be registered for the CL. Straight away Potter has a headache of who to pick. And who out the squad for the group stage he will drop. And FFP or no FFP, £600M is an extremely hefty investment and Boehly will want relatively quick returns on it.

Never warmed to Cancelo. Always seemed like a cunt to me. Hope his permanently gone.

I doubt there is a way back here whilst Pep is in charge.. Popped in here to see if we managed to get a left back yet? No, again? Lets continue playing a cb or a left winger there then great stuff
There has to be one incoming in the summer - its getting beyond a joke now

What a fantastic piece of business from Man United signing the leader of the austrian national team, according to Sky.

Did they mention he played only 3 full 90 minutes so far this season? :lol:

Apparently our buy back for Lavia is £40m.

Look it's been a very bad window for us.
Long BEFORE there was any talk of Cancelo going we needed a left back.
But we did nothing about it which is very negligent and I wouldn't be suprised if we do nothing about that in the summer either.

We seem to be obsessed about being the net spend best boys in the class.
Now we will need to bin that crap in the summer because irrespective of what happens between now and June, we will need to strengthen and freshen the squad.

Irrespective of how many minutes he has played, is he a midfielder? Yes, tick. Have they lost Eriksen and need a short term fix - tick.. compare that to us who again neglect to replace a pivotal role in our set-up and I know who i would consider to have done better and it's not us. Bayern have also gotten themselves a replacement at our expense though Cancelo hadto be shipped out
