no doubt not possible under their contracts and counter productive in terms of 'losing the dressing room' but if i were a manager i would be seriously tempted to fine canos at least a months wages for that shit yesterday. getting booked for taking your shirt off is such a pure example of ego over team that i'm amazed managers let players get away with it.
also i both understand and at the same time don't really understand the emphasis the media/punditry class put on individual players winning trophies. those medals clearly mean something well after retirement but from the outside looking in it feels like grealish should be more satisfied with last season than this. record signing, attacking player, most important domestic game your team plays in the entire season, everything is going wrong and the coach doesn't see you as the answer?

O’Brien was the heartbeat of the team and is irreplaceable, his departure is probably the reason Corberan walked. Toffolo on the other hand had a pretty indifferent season till the last dozen games where he suddenly turned into to best leftback in the champo. But I doubt he'll be first choice, nor make any impact in the prem. And we can't really complain about the manner of his leaving, we got him from Lincoln for a song after he'd seen out his contract to the last year and refused to sign a new one there, same again. And he's been replaced by the impressive looking Japanese international, Yuta Nakayama. But they've had our pants down with O'Brien, he's worth double the alleged £8m and add ons. Hope they go bust etc...

I thought it was kind of telling that he spent an hour or so making smart runs off the shoulder with no one picking him out in favour of playing a safe backwards or sideways ballwithin 15 seconds of Nunez coming on Liverpool were pinging balls over the top for him to chase every time they got on the ball.It almost certainly won’t make a difference in the long run but it’s fucking criminal how boring city are with the talent they’ve got

there is a reality in which Grealish wide on the left with Haaland up top is a joyfully destructive wrecking machine but i don't think this will go down like that.
