Absolutely made up that bruno signs a new deal ? ???.
11 Aug 2024 21:06:38
I’m not.

He’s our best player g nev and has been for years
Do not get the hate from our own fans in Bruno
Yeah he might whinge and throw his hands about but make no mistake he’s the only class player we have in the team
Our most creative player and he does a lot of defending.

I wouldn't have been bothered if Bruno left. He is no captain either. nie I'm not bothered that we kept him.

I would not have signed him to a new deal, the money we spend today and o wr the next three years affectation transfers and getting the right people in.
I love Bruno as a player but he isn't going to help us win a league, we are 5 years away, a new deal cripples the deals we can make over the next 5 years.

Vital he signed. Another step in the right direction. Optimistic about the season, if we can keep most of them out the treatment room.

How so Oakbark? Clearly we need good players who are going to move us up the ladder. It isn’t a case of selling everyone over 28 and buying a load of 24 year olds. We still have fixtures to play before 2029.

Thats not exactly how things work, Oakbark.
Sure, we might not win it, but we still have to get CL, and if Bruno can help us do that, then he is absolutely needed. If we are going to challenge in 5 years, as you say, we need to be a club who at least plays CL every year, otherwise, we will have to throw money at players so they would join us.
Also, we can sell Bruno in those 5 years, if needed. But for now, this is a great choice!

He is consistently near the top of the list of players who create goals and chances. By far our best creative player. He works hard and is rarely injured. We definitely need him.

Bruno is not a character I've warmed to.
However he is a very good player and as stated above he creates a lot of chances.
You can't deny his stats which are good.
It seems sensible at this time to voice him a new deal despite his age.
Not overjoyed personally but not put out or disappointed either.

The proof of the pudding will be in the results of the next few years and where we end up, then we can judge whether that was the best use of the money.

He was extended a year which would take him into his 30’s, 33 to be exact. With a hefty pay rise. We came 8th last season, not one of those players deserve a pay rise it’s quite frankly bad timing and a joke. He has 2 years left which by that point he’d be almost 32, on the verge of being useless and there would be no sell on fee anyway due to his age.

No it wont, Oakbark, since it doesn't all depend on Bruno. He can bang 15 goals and add 15 assists per season, but we still might not win anything, because it never depends on just one player.
Also, you can't know if we sold Bruno and brought in another player, how would that player fit in and would he bring us results.
