This lad not going anywhere, he loves the club, loves the city. He's refers to his kids as Geordies. He's so important to this club.

Was just thinking he is the beating heart of the team. You cannot just rip it out and replace it and expect the sum total of the parts to function the same. So blessed to have him grace our team. Love the fella. It must be love. He loves us, we love him. Don’t think he’s going anywhere next season. Well done Wor flags. That display was like cupids arrow. Shot to the heart. Job done. ????????????

Really hope he gives us another year. 

Especially considering our injury ravaged season and we're still in the mix for 6th. 

When you see and listen to him speak, I genuinely  believe he will let his heart rule his head (please just for 1 more season at least ?). Especially with his family behind him. Wasn’t it Rafa’s daughter that told him he couldn’t leave us because we loved him when we went down. We know how that turned out. We pull on his heart strings. As a fan base we’re not normal [emoji38]

Football fans always talk about players being irreplaceable. It's the strangest thing.

 

Particularly because a lot of times the player in question wasn't even seen that way initially. Bruno cost £30 million and we had no idea he would be this.

 

There's no telling who comes in next and what direction the team goes in. 

It’s really an expression for the low probability of repeating the same recruiting, especially given lack of market depth, big demand for 6s and our existing lack of progressive passers. The probability of having a successful outcome selling him is not 0, but the price required for it to be bigger than 0.5  is, imo, extremely big.

Seems like the kind of lad who if an offer was accepted from Man City might go and talk to them about a contract solely so he could post the DiCaprio "I'm not fucking leaving!" clip on social media :lol:

It'll always be his choice...just cos someone shoves an offer under your nose doesn't mean you have to sign it.

 

Depends what he ultimately wants

 

If it's trophies, yes he may want to move if we're not looking like getting close but may also want to hang around and see how it works out with us and be remembered as a legend for being in the team that delivered the first major in more than 50 years.

 

If it's money then yes he can jump, but his money will keep rising here if he continues to perform

 

If it's a nicer climate then there's bot all we can do about it, but there's fewer better places to play if your doing well here...today's flags showed that....Joelinton gets this. He could have easily left for somewhere warmer, but found the love when he turned from a rubbish striker to a beast midfielder.

 

Regardless, there's always reasons to move and always reasons to stay. Just depends what matters most to him

He should be captain with no Trippier or Lascelles. Burn has been great at CB but Bruno just seems a true leader.

I've no doubt he'd love to stay, but we need to be playing CL football, and we'll need to match the wages he'd get at one of the mega clubs sooner rather than later.

I guess it depends how long he wants to wait to try and win a trophy. Declan Rice left after West Ham won a trophy to try and win more trophies. Harry Kane left Spurs to try and win more trophies. Both were loved by their fans

 

Football careers are short and we have to match his ambitions

Also correct, but they are different situations. Kane is past 30 and it's doubtful he will get better so moved to a team that would usually guarantee at least 1 trophy a season (this year in Germany is almost certainly an anomaly). Rice is more comparable, but can anyone realistically see West Ham getting any better than they currently are? Arsenal are a more certain bet to do better than West Ham over the next couple of years and arguably so are we. Obviously no-where near Arsenal now, but more likely to get closer to them than West Ham ever will

 

We are on an upward trend which is unlikely to stop barring PIF declaring us a basket case.

Or if FFP prevents that upward trend?

 

Which is where the whole Bruno may get sold comes from

FFP is a double edged sword. Even with a release clause who can actually afford him? City/PSG/maybe R. Madrid.
