I will stick to the no naming names rule but from what I heard at the time, 'boss' was actually referring to someone in a chairman/CEO type role and not a 'manager' as in the guy who picks the team...

Important to note that this is two 19-year-olds, so speculation is even more pointless than usual as chances are you won't have even heard of them even if they had been named.

Based on what? If you gave Pep two choices: either you get a winger who is decent at keeping the ball and scores/assists a lot, or a winger who is decent at keeping the ball and scores/assists significantly less than Kelechi Iheanacho, I am pretty confident that he would choose the former.

Finally caught the first Austin Powers lately. Good but I don't quite get the hype. In other words, the same as I felt about most 90s comedies.

And that's where opinion is divided. Half of us feel that Grealish was integral to winning a treble and half of us feel that we won a treble in spite of having a winger with an offensive contribution that would make Nathan Redmond feel like a fraud. We aren't going to agree on it and that's...

Why, exactly? With a fraction of the £100m they got for Jack, they bought Leon Bailey, who is now looking much better than Grealish did at Villa, let alone now. I actually think £50m would've been an overpayment, considering how many far better players have gone for far less.

I said myself that it's a shit penalty but it's a very simple fact: if you think that's a Panenka, you simply do not understand what a Panenka is, and if that's the case I can't really help you. Compare that penalty to any actual Panenka and you'll see that the difference in power is night and...

Mad isn't it? When did it become a blanket term for any shot down the middle?

Seen a lot of people calling that penalty a Panenka and I'm not having it. It was a shit penalty but he put plenty of power behind it. I hate seeing people try and frame it as some sort of arrogant act that he only did to stroke his own ego.

We hold Grealish to remarkably low standards, that's the problem. His output this season is three goals, five assists and only one since December. None of our other wingers in the Pep era would get away with that.

This aged poorly

I love Eddie but it’s a bad time to have a GK who can’t really take penalties. Caballero would be good.

Feel oddly relaxed about this. We’ve been the better team, I think we’ll get the goal second half. Or not. Can’t expect to win it every year.

We absolutely should be open to selling Cancelo to Arsenal - but they'd be mad to fall for the same thing a third time after (if we're honest) getting burned twice in one summer.

PSG and Dortmund are nothing we can't beat over two legs, and I've said more than enough about my opinion of old Tommy Wingback and his Bayern side. If we get through this, tonight, I would absolutely back us to record back-to-back Champions League wins.

Yeah, he presented himself as a right-winger for two decades. If he didn't work out that he was actually a CAM until now, it sounds like his fault, not ours.

Selling someone who categorically doesn't want to be here and buying someone who desperately does - that's a good move, for me, always. I also think that we have at least ten players who would look equally outstanding in that Chelsea side.

It will be a decade of Pep at City soon. It boggles the mind how some people still aren't used to the fact that if a player doesn't want to be here, he will let them go for the right price. Reminds me of the people who still shit themselves whenever Eddie plays out from the back.

By all accounts we told him the exact same thing but he didn't want to stay.

It's crazy that Everton fans still insist Pickford is great.
