I’ve actually been a bit underwhelmed by Jesus so far. Don’t get me wrong, he works very hard and is clearly a talented player, but almost all of his goals have been tap-ins. Has he actually scored a ‘great’ goal in the year he’s been here?
Probably the biggest one...
I think we as a fanbase need to have far more faith in Pep. He was questioned for going into the Spurs game without Silva and we won comfortably. He was questioned for putting Mangala on in the derby and that was a huge part of the reason we won. He was questioned when we went behind against West Ham, against Bristol, against Huddersfield, against Burnley, against Bournemouth... and yet we keep winning. Now he wants to sign Jonny Evans and people think he's crazy. It baffles me. Guardiola is the best manager in the world and I think we should be happy to enjoy the ride and trust him.
Actually I suppose this is appropriate for this thread.... I think the Scousers are worse than the rags.Quality comment mate.. made me laugh!!!!
How anyone would like to see the dippers win the league is beyond me ? They have despicable fans.
I'm trying to work out if that's a compliment!
Maybe I should have added a year to the Pogba thing.
I'm not saying you have to like him, just that he's probably not shite if Pep wants him.Good post but JFE ? seriously ? remember he's scum reject.
Ok guys I'd better be off for a week, see you later!
- The Abu Dhabi regime's human rights record is a stain on the club despite the mental gymnastics people do to distance the two.
- Vincent Kompany has never been a good captain for us and instead added to the nervous energy that permeates the ground when we're under the kosh.
- Our Academy is nothing more than a PR campaign because it doesn't produce players for our first team squad - whatever the reasons for that, and the "but it's new!" excuse is a very poor one.
- Jim Cassell and many others were prematurely abandoned because they didn't visually look like the type of person we wanted at the club despite vast knowledge and experience.
- The club doesn't give a shit about us as fans but more importantly, it never did either.
- For all of the apparent greatness we have, this team falls apart without David Silva and there's nobody in world football who can replace him. And now he's 32.
- Yaya will be remembered with rose tinted glasses as his terrible and lazy performances are forgotten but he doesn't give a shit about City and never has past how much we're paying him - although he'll act the part post-retirement hoping to land a cushy job somewhere and we'll call him a "Legend" in the same way that you "love" your ex-wife or ex-husband.
- I like New York City FC and think the CFG is a nice concept that makes me interested in other leagues and have a "home team" somewhat to follow. I don't give a shit about the rest of the stuff, it just makes me watch more football with an interest.
- Our shirts are terrible and have been since Umbro who we never should have moved on from (forcibly so, admittedly).
- We ARE the best team in Premier League history and it's not even a close competition, no matter what happens in the leagues and CL. Nobody has ever played anything like what we're playing and it's showing a lot of Little Englanders that their precious Premier League is all marketing and no different from any other league in the world.
- A fan who watches the matches on TV in Nigeria is just as big and important a fan as you are and this "but I'm a local fan" stuff is small time bollocks.
- Raheem Sterling is constantly criticised because he's black.
- Txiki Begiristain was one of the best post-takeover signings we've ever made and 95% of the people who criticise him don't even know what it is that he does and are doing it as a meme.
- People in the Transfer Forum rate players primarily on Football Manager, FIFA and things they've heard other people say. No, you haven't watched Pissbutchio playing in the Slovakian league enough to rate him comparatively to John Stones, sit down.
- John Stones is a better defender than everybody we've had post-takeover not named Kompany or Otamendi even without his passing ability.
- Along the same lines, Lescott is the most overrated former player we've ever had and he was Mangalaesque at times. People have forgotten the "Liability Lescott" tag.
- QPR threw the game at 2-2 when they knew they were safe. We all know it.
- Jadon Sancho is a bottle merchant who didn't fancy himself to compete against Jesus and he'll never be a top player because he lacks the courage to be one.
- People who hark back to the "good old days" when we were crap are remembering a time that doesn't exist. Being a City fan was fucking shit for most of the past 30 years before the takeover and I refuse to believe anybody actually enjoyed going every week and watching us get fucking twatted by Swindon or some other bunch of plodders. I was there too, it was wank.
- With modern day training, diet and coaching, Kinkladze would be a £100m player and it would be cheap at that. Stop being scared to say this because rags might take the piss.
- Our matchgoing fanbase is way too old and it is a contributing factor in the atmosphere.
Txiki Begiristain is an underrated clog in the whole city system and turned us into the powerhouse we are in 5-6 short years.
