Bryan is a very promising player but couldn't have ended up with a worse coach for developing a young player

Apparently, Sevilla want a buy back clause. I doubt Levy will go for that.

As for Gil, he looked promising when he first broke into the team but he's been on loan at Eibar. He looks a bit slight for the prem. He might be another David Silva in the making but he might be the new Deulofeu.
Whereas, I can easily see Lamela doing well in Spain.

Don't know what @Yid4life thinks.

Looks like a good prospect. But we have had plenty of them over the seasons that have flopped.

I like Lamela. He definitely splits opinion amongst Spurs fans though.
What I will say though is that at least he plays like he cares.

The homegrown take of others may well be correct.

The cynical take would be that Pep doesn't tend to stay anywhere real long, and that he's interested in immediate points tally should his goalkeeper go down rather than developing the club in the long term.

I'll let you decide how much cynicism you feel Pep deserves, and we can wait a couple years for the actual answer to that one.

Some good points made. But also to be fair to Pep he has been at City 5 years and at least another year guaranteed.
How many PL managers stick around for 6+ years? Also Pep is truly excellent at improving good players and taking
them to the next level and more. Examples being: Sterling (immeasurably). De Bruyne, Walker, Foden and even Augero.
I would say that he is far more long term than Klopp who really is only interested in an immediate points tally.
I would have liked a younger player to come through the ranks. Maybe we don't have a academy goalkeeper of the
calibre required. Who knows?

I'm not staking out much of a position here. All I'm saying is that it looks like a cynical, short-term move and that it would tend to support the position that Pep is both forward-thinking and cynical should he move on when the contract is up.

There's no doubt that Pep develops players that are already at a high level. He's got quite the track record on that one.

Ramsdale is awful.

Bad at Bournemouth.

Even worse at Sheffield United.

Some shocking signings at Arsenal, paid way over the odds for Ben White as well who hasn't shown enough to be a £50 million player, English premium at it's worse and Arsenal are a shambles of a club right now, giving stupid contracts to players almost on the wrong side of 30, and being fleeced for average English players.

Get the Popcorn stocked up, AFTV is going to be epic viewing next season.

It is an over priced English premium but I’m 100% certain that white will be worth even more in a few years. He’s a brilliant player
