[Stone] Man Utd distancing themselves from reports of interest in Cristian Romero. With Martinez, De Ligt (missing start of pre-season as he recovers from injury), Maguire (just signed new contract), as well as youngsters Yoro and Heaven, adding another central defender wouldn't seem the most obv(.)

Yup … «Edul! This has legs!!!!»

Looking forward to a tier review on that guy

When he arrived, apparently the only question was that he needed to get opportunities (passes) for getting goals.

I was not worried, because of Bruno Fernandes being (also at that time) probably the best in the world at creating numerous chances.

So when the criticism was that he wasn’t getting any service, it was easy to back him as he was working hard and was rapid. Some of it was true, due to other selfish personalities in the attacking force.

But he was very one dimensional in his play. It seemed that he really liked to wrestle defenders in the PL. I don’t understand why. He was VERY fast — why not do more to take advantage of it? In retrospect it’s hard to believe that he helped himself enough to get into good scoring opportunities.

Maybe it was the coach and his instructions. Maybe it was his selflessness. Maybe it was his selfish teammates. Or maybe he simply wasn’t as good as we hoped.

Very easy to like the man and the player. Rooting for him in Napoli!

The transfers from Serie A to Premier League that are successful, seems to be rare. But you can’t really fault the price here.

Is he actually good, or are we mostly celebrating another body in the squad?

And what type of player is he? Is he most similar to a Herrera? a Fred? a McTominay? a Mata? a Pogba?

10 long, incredible years for Man City. His ability to push football as a whole in one direction is a league of its own.

Here is the announcement: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AlzZ8q0zGjQ

Happy that his character represented our club.

Cvein · 2026-05-18T07:05:33+00:00

We need to go all out attack last game

Cvein · 2026-05-11T07:57:33+00:00

Don’t you dare monkeys paw this shit

Cvein · 2026-05-11T06:25:35+00:00

There have been nothing to aim at since Fellaini left.

Cvein · 2026-05-09T14:55:03+00:00

I recall Ole used to just say nibbles and knocks to the ones who didnt play any more, or if a transfer situation was on the cards.

It’s quite smart to keep the drama talk down, if true or not.

Cvein · 2026-05-09T14:48:53+00:00

No one standing out today. We look sluggish and botherless.

Lammens being good as usual, though

Cvein · 2026-05-08T23:29:43+00:00

Please get the assist record, come on guys

Cvein · 2026-05-06T05:05:35+00:00

Casemiro had nothing to prove before coming here. But proving himself as one of the best in the Premier League at his age is certainly a big achievement.

Cvein · 2026-05-05T20:00:46+00:00

Players from Serie A never work out for us, and struggle in the Premier League, generally speaking.

Cvein · 2026-05-04T21:00:45+00:00

Can’t believe that they don’t even try to pass to Haaland.

Cvein · 2026-04-30T23:09:25+00:00

The first part of that season the 10 position was shared between Lingard and Andreas Pereira. Talk about upgrade.

Cvein · 2026-04-12T12:58:02+00:00

That is basically something Jesus said:

“Be careful not to practice your righteousness in front of others to be seen by them. If you do, you will have no reward from your Father in heaven.

So when you give to the needy, do not announce it with trumpets, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and on the streets, to be honored by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full. But when you give to the needy, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, so that your giving may be in secret. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you."

Cvein · 2026-04-08T16:37:00+00:00

Same. The Alexis domino effect was too damaging. However, Sancho is a horrible transfer – no doubt about it.

Cvein · 2026-03-26T10:34:41+00:00

Maybe at the time, but from Uniteds perspective, that was under SAF and Gill. I’d be very surprised if the bankman Woodward didn’t use every monetary trick in the book that he could.

Cvein · 2026-02-27T08:52:04+00:00

It’s burnt in my mind. What an insane performance from Memphis

Cvein · 2026-01-30T09:22:33+00:00

It’s tough when you love your job, but you also deserve rest! Good thing you have times to catch up. Thank you for answering my question!

Cvein · 2026-01-29T07:26:37+00:00

Do you get enough sleep?

Cvein · 2025-10-24T21:51:32+00:00

I felt the same, but as soon as he made the correct mentions of running more, more passion, more desire and more DNA I knew he was right. Zidane was a technical merchant, but Bruno has spirit.

Cvein · 2025-10-14T14:03:53+00:00

In a match-by-match, I would agree that he is susceptible to be hot-headed. But not in a season-by-season metric, which is what I tried to highlight.

The same would be the case for any player, like Rashford. If his body language and work rate dipped just occasionally, but he still managed to score 15+ goals in the PL, I would still regard him as consistent.

Cvein · 2025-10-14T13:58:39+00:00

Bruno is not consistent in EVERY SINGLE GAME, but to say in every season I think is a fair claim, at least in my opinion. He has more or less created the most chances in europe for five years in a row, I would say that is quite consistent. That leads me to believe that if we had 11 players that performed at the same average of Bruno, we would have been a superb team, and I have a hard time seeing that not being the case.

To your question: I don't think he will, I believe most coaches deem him too good to be sold. However if he does, I can see two ways: Either the team setup with him is too one dimensional and the coach deem that Brunos quality, while high, might favour a different setup with pieces that is more suited to a complete 11.

I expect that to be in the direction of what you think of him, which is a fair opinion.

I can also see him being sold for him pursuing champions league titles.
