He's proven in the Premier League and he's played in European competition.
So his body's used to play in midweek matches as well.
Because to be fair, that could be a bit of an adjustment if you don't play those games and you come to a team when you've got to play every three or four days, you can start getting injured.
So in that sense, he just ticks all those boxes.
And for City,
They sound simple, but that's basically what they need.
It's what they're looking for.
And when you throw in the fact that, yeah, he's homegrown, he's English, that's going to send the price up a lot.
Because if you ticked all the other boxes, it'd probably be, what, 70, 80 million?
But when you've got an English player and you've obviously got a selling club, you think, well, this guy's our star man.
We don't want to let him go for cheap.
That's when it starts to become expensive.
But yeah, those pretty simple sounding factors come together to add up to this big, exciting deal.
Well, you're losing Bernardo Silva, which is like basically losing the Guardiola blueprint on the pitch.
Nobody understands better what Guardiola is trying to do.
than Bernardo Silva in terms of the players who were at the club last year.
But then with Guardiola gone, it doesn't matter quite so much.
Obviously Enzo Maresca is going to come in.
And part of that is because, you know, he understands Guardiola, his processes, and it's that style of football that suits how City play.
But, you know, he had very physical midfield at Chelsea with Caicedo and Enzo Fernandes.
