We didnt even win those games. I've also enjoyed the performances but baffled why this suddenly means he has a queue of clubs waiting to buy him. Very harsh. We have been shit but he has been outstanding in the last fewgames. Has given his all despite our poor form. Leta nkt forgwt how young he is. He has massive potential 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has given his all despite our poor form. Leta nkt forgwt how young he is. He has massive potential But my point is, hes was outstanding in only 3 games, games that are typically easier for a defensive midfielder to shine in. I just dont see why that suddenly means hes city bound. Surely any serious club trying to buy him wants to see form over a longer period? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They do have one inserted. How long the buy back clause is valid for and how much it's for is the unknown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's shown flashes of quality all season in a poor team, has obviously shown a great level of professionalism with how he spent his time over the break in the season, has come back and been our best player since the restart. If we had 10 other players like him on the pitch we'd be **** laughing. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted June 28, 2020 Share Posted June 28, 2020 Man City might put a buyback clause in every player they sell, I'm sure I read that that's something that Barcelona do, they had one for Adama and we weren't allowed to sell him to Real Madrid. To be honest as good as Luiz is doing and for all the promise he has, I doubt City will be buying him back, has shown nowhere near enough that he's good enough for their side, if he'd have put in performances for another team that he's put in for us and fans of that other team were talking about him going to City we'd probably wonder what they were talking about. I'm not even sure if they'd get much benefit from buying him back just to sell him for a profit, if the buyback clause is say £25m, then in reality they aren't going to make much profit on that by selling him on, if any at all. I suppose they could buy him back and loan him out, hoping he performs well enough to increase his value so they can then sell him on for a profit, but there's no guarantee that his value would increase, and if not they will have wasted their money buying him back.

villalad21 Posted June 28, 2020 Share Posted June 28, 2020 People claiming he will be the perfect Fernandinho replacement. Don't know if people have been keeping up with Man City this season but Fernandinho has mainly played as a CB this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flashes of quality but it seems crazy to worry that man city will be trying to buy a defensive midfielder from a prem club who have currently conceded the most goals in the premier league. I like him, hes started to look like the player we all hoped for but I'd be shocked so see him leave let alone for the Club currently 2nd. If someone wants to throw money at us, that's another story but I cant see why they would. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Massive exaggeration there. No one said that, but I meant that in reality he saved us from atleast two goals, assisted one. He’s the one who you think would get an assist or help clearing goals. Fair play to him. He might be our saviour because he’s the only one stepping up and could give us hope to improve the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Man on is 'plecy' which is literally 'back'. If they're open in the middle it's 'druga' which is 2nd. It's confusing for sure. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
