It has got to be for the life style as it’s 100% not for the ‘shitty’ wages on offer .

Pep has let Macatee go (or is about to ?) so we cannot let Bernardo go , period .


He’s 28 next week. He’ll be retiring in about 5-7 years and he can go live in any city wants. Travel the world. What a privileged position to be in. His Mrs wants to sit on her arse earning next to fuck all while he brings all the money in and she dictate where they live. I love Bern but you let someone treat you like that you’re a pathetic human.


It's called coercive controlling. Can you imagine if it's the other way around?

It is called a relationship :)

Chelsea told Barca to fuck off over Azpilicueta. We should say the same over Bernardo.

For the noise around Ronaldo, it seems Bernie has kept quiet but wants out sadly Carl. No point in forcing him to stay 100 mill minimum or as you say suck it up buttercup. Once again late in the window, I hope we have a plan.

Agree with the sentiment here. Its a very short career, and she must be a very shortsighted selfish person.

We are big players about time we showed it off the pitch. Barca Bernie rumours should have been dealt with a longtime ago. Levy fucked us off all last summer, learn from that FFS.

. . . or maybe the reason is that CFG are planning (yet) another takeover - this time something seriously big . . . a large and historic club facing acute financial challenges , perhaps ?

I wonder how happy the dressing room is?

Three players have left permanently with a few surprises on loan as well. Normally winning pots makes players want to stay yet the three that have gone have gone where the chance of winning things is a lot less.

Is it because of the World Cup and in the case of Sterling and Jesus they want to be playing more? Is it the uncertainty of Peps contract situation? Or is it simply the time is right to move on?

Bernado himself hasn't really said much to quash the persistent rumours about him wanting to move either which you can take which way you want.

Pep is correct though in only wanting fully committed players. Maybe Bernado has indicated to Pep he is fully committed as the professional we know he is but if an opportunity arose he would wish to explore it

Nothing sinister. Have not seen anything negative from any player who has left. That shows respect for the club.
I guess it is a combination of the WC, City's playing standards, players wanting game time, ego, Pep's methods and the Club's stance on players leaving.

WC is a huge thing for most players and most need regular football to get on the plane.
Sterling: would not renew his contract, was being phased out, reckoned he is to good for that, moved onf or a good fee. He is happy, City are happy.
Gabby: two replacements signed and a WC year. Obvious he was surplus to requirements.
Zinch: squad player in a WC year. To good for that (maybe), moved to get playing time.
McAtee: signed a new deal with us and promised first team football. Only way he could get it was a loan move.
Bazunu: turned down £45K a week at 20. That is how good he is. Backed himself to breakthrough elsewhere and probably getting more than money.
Bernie: Wants to move for personal/lifestyle reasons i.e. his Missus. Not much you can do about that is she is in your ear everyday.

Flip side it means that City probably have one of the most settled bunch of players in the PL.
Potential signings know we are very unlikely to do a Levy/Kane and Brighton/Cucurella block on them moving on.

Perhaps Bernardo feels he doesn't need to quash rumours because they didn’t orginate from himself in first place.

In addition, you are correct that Pep has said on many occasion that if a player wants out he won't stop them, yet yesterday he said he 100% wants Bernardo to be a City player this season. I read that as he is staying but happy to let the press speculate over nothing.

I've only seen Bernardo linked barca who are fucked and can't sign him realistically anyway.

Thats just my take on it though.
