Rag Forum last night - "Can someone who isnt a Utd fan tell me that Rashford is having a good game or not"
It's how biased the bullshit is, even Utd fans dont or cant trust the pundits
Jeez I cant wait for Foden to start playing, it will be really interesting to see if he gets the bright new English talent thing that Rashford gets, or the shite that anyone playing for City gets.
In fact it is Peps duty to bring Foden into the team and start showing our EDS work

He's a bit of a prima donna imo, he doesnt work as hard and seems to be all about the skillzzzonly saw a bit of the game but it looked to me that Rushford is beginning to believe in all the hype about him fancy flicks etc and showboating.

He did that instep touch then outside of foot pass between the defenders legs before running into him and climbing all over him once. The ref fell for it.

'can' is a wonderful word, and difficult to argue is incorrect.
Very true. I 'can' be Jennifer Aniston's next lover/husband/bitch/really whatever she likes!
Commentary last night neglected to mention Sterling win the ball,carry it,release a nice little pass to Trashford,who cocked up with his fancy flick.
Minutes later Tossee Lingard made an assist for Sterling,which "ticked all the boxes"
How differently both assists were reported.

I think he did from the right once. I don't think his left is much use apart from standing on, and as soon as Slovenia doubled up on him, it only offered much when Bertrand joined in. Not for long though.

The only one's being fooled or doing the fooling here are the commentators, the media for writing it up, Rashford for believing it if that be the case and last but not least any individual for soaking up the media hype. The average supporter can see with there own eyes the truth behind it all I feel.

manager of the month details on sly sports.....
Surely there can only be one winner but you wouldn't think so reading the below
Arsene Wenger is one of four Premier League bosses nominated for the September Manager of the Month award.
The Arsenal boss, who was the subject of protests throughout last season, steered the Gunners to two wins and one draw last month.
Manchester City, who sit top of the Premier League, were the only team to win all four of their September matches in the English top flight, earning Pep Guardiola a place among the contenders.
Jose Mourinho led Manchester United to three wins and a draw in the same period, with his side behind their local rivals only on goal difference.
Mauricio Pochettino completes the quartet of nominees for the award, having collected 10 points from a possible 12 in September, leaving Spurs just behind the Manchester clubs at the top of the table.

Similar kind of theme on the POTM report too.
My friend linked me this article recently on John Stones
https://www.theguardian.com/football/2017/oct/06/gareth-southgate-john-stones-england
He says it's nice that John Stones is getting credit but I felt like much of the article was crap and didn't even do him any good other than to say he's playing well for City. It even rather inaccurately compares him to England defenders of old like Terry Butcher.
A real ends to justify the means sort of article.
I'm posting it here because I feel that this another example of a journalist praising a City player through gritted teeth and adding to my previous points that there are too many people in the media who don't understand football. Feel free to move this to the Stones thread if it's not relevant enough to the media

To be honest it seems like just another snidey article to me. I wouldn't swap Stones for any other centre back in the Premier League. He didn't have a poor game for England against Slovenia. In fact the back four played well including Cahill who was also criticised. The issue was that the midfield was totally immobile because of the two donkeys Dier and Henderson. The back four had no outlet to pass to. Barney Ronay is just another cliche-ridden hack who can't read a football match properly. Stones is our best defender, apart from Vinny, since Dave Watson.

Agree Dier is the problem he is piss poor built up like he is a world beater after the rags went in for him he is slow control pass range pure shit! Just play Henderson in there with an extra mobile player.

You said "with an extra mobile player", implying that he, too, is mobile. That's the way I read it, hence the comment.Did I say Henderson was mobile?
