Bale. Could we? Would we? Should we?

If that was the case he would have signed a new deal by now.

Unless Barca have said they will have him on a free next season.

He could be #2 or #3 in Barca's list and has been advised to sit tight and see what happens? The Rabiot deal falling apart might have had an effect which brought him back into play in their thinking?
 
Eriksen has never indicated he is interested in Madrid.

For him and Danes in general, Barca is the one ..

If you believe that then he hasnt indicated a preference for Barca either, its all just gossip.

We do know he currently hasnt/isnt signing a new deal and it seems Madrid are very interested...


Let’s assume rumours are true and they are spending at least 300 million, they are going to have destroyed FFP

They will be giving players away by the end of July.

Or trying to sell them at maximum value to balance the books

It's hard to get any indication out of Eriksen.

Looks like the kinda guy who would clean up on the WPT when he retires...he's so hard to read.
 
For me the concerns over Sane have nothing to do with ability - technically the guy has it all, imo. It seems more likely that it's either an FFP thing for City or the man's attitude is off. Taking the WC situation into consideration I'd guess it's the latter.
 
Bale, Sane or Martial, any one would make a difference.

Sane or Martial obviously need some Poch magic but the ingredients are there
 
I wouldn't put a knock against Sane for not fitting in with Pep, he's not the first player Guardiola has taken issue with, often irrationally, don't forget that for all of the success he completely fudged up his relationship with the best player he ever had.

Yeah, in terms of raw ability he is the best I have seen in a while, since Hazard maybe. Pep's reluctance to play him all the time must stem from something though. I guess a clash of egos. Pep is a fantastic coach (he is, much as I hate to admit it) but a giant bellend. And Sane has a giant tattoo of himself on his own back. One is a misunderstood clam and the other is also just a misunderstood clam. Maybe we'll just call it a draw.
What was the question?

You have to remember that it wasn't Just Pep that has issues with Sane, he was also left out of the World cup squad for some reason.
 
I'd have thought that Sane will go to Bayern - Ribery and Robben have retired, they're doing a bit of a rebuild, he's German,...feels very obvious.

Martial would be an excellent signing for us. Not sure I see it happening though

Wasn’t that put down to an embarrassment of perceived riches at the time, they preferred Brandt.

I don’t recall his attitude, or his response to being left out, being cited as a problem.

I think it was. I'm sure I remember a statement about it being for the good of the team as a whole. Didn't sound like a tactical comment

Edit: scratch that, it was an earlier game or tournament
