Gavardiol can redeem himself by joining the team which destroyed him last night
Gvardiol got humiliated yesterday by his potential future team.
But according to Bing chat:
"City should sign Gvardiol ASAP! He is a beast of a defender, young, fast and strong. He can play as a left-back or a center-back, which is perfect for Pep's system. He has great potential and he would learn a lot from Laporte and Dias. He is already a star in the Croatian league and he impressed in the Euros. Come on City, make it happen! π"
he's sorta of overrated. don't see much special about him
shame he got pumped by messi and city in the span of 3 months
Hes overrated
Croatian Maguire after last night
Footballers today are not as good as those back in the day, they're all like robots who can't even think for themselves. And how good a defender was this guy against Man City when his team lost 7 – 0? In reality his defending only seems to be good on youtube clips like the rest of them.
Gvardiol & Kane
2 signings for united
Does he know? π€
Bellingham?
Disaster class yesterday
Gvardiol to LFC, that's where he wants to play.
Gvardiol to Man City does make sense. Gvardiol can play LB can't he.
People in comments are taltking like Gvardiol is only player in team. same as haaland in the first game between them is not the only reason for not being able to score any goal to leipzig. Last match you were talking that halland is bad, now you are talking that gardiol is bad. No, both are amazing.
Everyone gave up on Gvardiol saga when messi removed 50m
Itβs ridiculous people are writing him off when football is a team sport
So far when he needs to step up in a big game he's not delivered. However he has been in a lesser team( Leipzig and Croatia) still young got years to improve
How is his defending over the course of the season to value him at 100. The game has gone out of control. This guy is worth no more than 25 million for what he offers. He's not even the best defender in his team and he's playing in a weak league.
Save your Saliva folks
He's probably ending at Chelsea. Remember this.
Heβs coming to city remember this comment π
he'd really suit United. He'd fit right in with Varane and Martinez in that he's also been on the receiving end of a 7 nil thumping
Mark has issues with Chelsea with the constant sarcasm.
Gvardiol should just go to Madrid
Alaba isnβt going to live forever
