Robbo Leaving?

[Kev0909]

Yes there’s that and the slight sliver of hope that it makes Atletico more malleable to our designs on Julián….

Imagine

Him

Salah Wirtz Diaz

In fairness its a match made in shithouse heaven robertson and simeone. Wish him.all the best if he moves, the mistakes are more frequent and he'll be second choice moving on. Has provided some great memories. If he departs does that signal the last player associated with plg?

[justme]

Be sad to see him go. hes a legend and hasn't ruined that tag.. This move wasn't planned for 2 seasons unlike another persons

Also fear we are clear g out too many at one time.

Devil's Advocate - is there a better time to continue to transition towards bringing talent in and refreshing than when you have just won a League and some of the newer (relatively speaking) players have contributed?

Salah, Van Dijk, Alisson would still be here.

Mac Allister, Szoboszlai and Gravenberch are a midfield unit that now has a League title under its belt, with Konaté a key centre-back in the spine - some of those players could effectively become part of the "leadership group" - Mac Allister certainly has enough about him.

Mamardashvili, Wirtz (?), Frimpong and Kerkez (?) could be absolutely excellent for us.

Has to happen at some point, whether it's this Summer or next. It's a fine balance, but I am optimistic that we can transition without too much discomfort.

Yes - this is the dream scenario. I mean…we’re an absolute nightmare for anyone - absolutely anyone with that artillery,

[shminkyred]

If he wants to go fair enough is right.
But if love to keep him. I think he is one of those players that's great to have around the squad. Also fear we are clear g out too many at one time.

This.....

But depends on if he's happy to be back up and take less money(no idea what he is on by the way)

Could be a great Millie type character..

[southernboy]

I’ll be gutted if he goes.

Been a great servant and he also seems to be a great lad, always up for a laugh, honoured to be playing for the club and seems just normal.

Not up his own arse like the other full back that has just left

^^^ This all day long. Would personally love him to stay for one more season, but wouldn’t stand in his way if he wants a new challenge.

Yep add to that in the wings, Jota if he stays fit and gets firing, Gakpo. and chiesa if he stays and comes good.. that's of course if they're all still here.

Not bad replacements if one gets injured, can't really say that about the rest of the starting line-up mind, RB looks good if bradley stays fit. CM/CB not so sure.
