I genuinely think the Captain choice was a big whoopsy moment in this season - he had shown enough aggression [good for his game] but less so for captaincy IMO.

Ok, if he's genuinely going through something then fair play - we all suffer, some more than most, some less time than others and I am all for supporting this. And the LOA is a good thing.

However playing Devil's advocate here the unhelpful timing of Messrs Fabrizio and Florian revealing exclusives etc about his future [which for me can only have come from his camp] does make me suspect perhaps a bit of both is true.

FWIW my use of the phrase dickhead whilst pejorative is only done so in vernacular that resonates with the situation whereby footballers try and engineer moves not that he actually IS one perse.
Yup, good post.

Whatever the truth a move away may be the best option - if he is going through something, then maybe through no fault of ours and no fault of his, a fresh start, change of scenery is what is needed. Hence Fabrizio and Florian.

People are being VERY harsh on Pedro without knowing the facts at all. Who knows what's going on in his personal life right now, who knows how the conversation with FH went? No one knows anything. I hope, if he does go, he gets the recognition he deserves. Despite what some people seem to think, he has never downed tools and has worked as hard as anyone on the pitch. Is he a petulant Brazilian? Yes. Does he work his socks off for the team. Also, yes.
Why let the truth get in the way of a good RANT! Yet again, people can't help but jump to conclusions – it's not the first time and it certainly won't be the last time. At least it gives us something to talk about when there's no ACTUAL football going on :lol:

We’ve never sold big money forwards before not quite as easy to replace as defensive midfielders or defenders.
If himself & Mitoma depart that is huge if the replacements misfire.

He's got 2 years left on his contract.
He's 23 years old.
He's a proven PL striker.
He's a Brazilian international.

£75m + add-ons, or don't waste our time.

One swallow doesn’t make a summer. He is young, and could do with another year with us but I have no problem with him going anywhere except the Reds.
Just because he’s Brazilian doesn’t make him Romario and I should know as I lived there for 12 years and he’s is average.
