    They play Man City next gameweek - let’s hope this doesn’t turn into an outbreak,

    Checked that, it’s only 10 days away too. Gulp.

    Marcelo Bielsa on the absence of Illan Meslier: "He's unwell."

    Is it Covid-19? "You shouldn't be asking this question."

    Aguero just tweeted that he's now tested positive for Covid having been isolating... so we won't be seeing for another few weeks at least!

    I feel like we won’t be seeing too many more Premier League starts from him. The end of an era.

    He'd never move within the league would he?Seems like a lad that wants to get out of England as soon as he's done at City, still doesn't speak English does he?

    He speaks English but he's not the most fluent.

    Yeah like a lot of footballers/managers they speak it well enough to get by but probably not comfortable enough doing interviews etc. where one misinterpretation or slip could be construed as something completely out of context and blown up.

    I doubt it. I reckon he could go home.

    Free transfer to PSG and work under his countryman Poch.

    I'm sure Aguero has gotten very fond of those bonus cheques coming from the oil barons by now and will want to keep them coming ;)

    KDB to Gundog will be a popular move I guess

    I've Gundogan, so it lets me double up on the defence and get in Cancelo for the next 3 GW's. So a not too bad to be fair and solves a problem of how to get 2 City defenders.

    And the hopefully then KDB back in for their potential doubles in 24,26 and 27.

    Wow.

    HUGE news.

    I was going to captain him v brom . Think I will bring in sterling now

    Will be interesting to see how they get on without him.

    KDB while has messed up tons of his own chances, one on ones etc. still has created huge amount of chances for the rest (ironically enough last outing v West Brom likes of Sterling & Gundogan cudnt score from KDB's chances, at point blank range)

    For me makes things much easier as i was selling son / salah to get him at -4. wont do that now.

    Would de Bruyne being out not likely change Gundogan’s role in the team?

    That's the risk - who knows how the team will set up without him. If you knew that Gundogan is definitely going to play and is on penalties than yea he be worth it, but if you sell KdB and only have 1 FT you could end up with 6m in bank and player on bench.

    Maddison will Leicester's form and unreal fixtures be a better shout as he's not going to be rotated or at least not to the same extent as city assets imo.

    I would almost say if you were looking for someone in De Bruyne’s absence, Foden might be the man because they might rely more on him having the ball and making things happen. That isn’t really Gundogan’s thing

    The way he plays with sprinting to counter attack a small hamstring tear now equals a big hamstring tear in three weeks if they don't treat it properly. Two weeks off sounds like they are going to rush him back.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,291 ✭✭✭✭Father Hernandez


    An update on KDB, 4-6 weeks Pep saying.

    Missing potenitally the next 6 GW's at least (4 weeks)

    I think it's time to Wildcard for me. Have KdB, Vardy, only 1 city defender. Salah who looks off it. Passengers like Balbuena, Forster, Jones. Tammy Abraham! :pac:

    Damn. I have him as first sub. I suppose Mitchell & Burke to the rescue :pac:

    Funny enough was strongly considering selling him for Cancelo or Dias after WBA game

    KWP is the only player in my team I still have since the start of the season.

    Shipping him out for Cancelo most likely this week with that injury.
