Technically, it was a draw ;-)

Only technically, they went out. They couldn’t have spun it any better.

Summat about JG out in town..?
Jack Grealish denied entry to bar in Manchester on night out with Man City teammates (msn.com)

Did he have trainers on and jeans, doormen don’t like that in town.

"Sergio Aguero raises concerns over Julian Alvarez's move to Man City with Pep Guardiola dig - Mirror Online" https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/julian-alvarez-man-city-transfer-26158050.amp

Sergio is a disrespectful…no, I can’t bring myself to say it…

Who is ‘Ali’ ?

I meant to ask that when I posted but forgot to.

 

[andyhinch]

Hahahaha. I think they might manage a draw against Burnley.

Or worse.

Did they play ? Nothing on BBC sports NW this morning. Everton lost though.

It's not disrespectful it's true. We don't play strikers. That may in part be because they are not good enough. Aguero in his last year was not good enough. That's a fact even if City fans don't like to hear it.

That’s all bullshit Sergio didn’t say any of that, there’s another headline but I can’t find it where Sergio was saying Alvarez will fit into City like a glove.

Let's City bash to deflect, they can handle the negative. All positive at the dippers though, Salah is back.!! Pathetic.

Well isn’t that what I’m saying ?

The return of the chosen one was that newsworthy it warranted the yellow breaking news ticker on Sky. Fucking ridiculous.

Who is ‘Ali’ ?

A member of the backroom staff.

The usual twisted and distorted (fake) news the Mirror produces. These "newspapers" have become a parody of themselves, especially the Mirror.

 

[The Light Was Yellow Sir]

It’s the weirdest reporting, think the words ‘sly dig’ are in their headlines. When there’s zero such ‘sly dig’ more Aguero saying that Alvarez is probably best not confined to the no.9 role as he is a player that likes to roam & ‘brake the lines’.

Fair enough I suppose, given Pep’s insistence on playing with a fairly static number 9 who’s confined to the opposition penalty box!!

That's why I posted it in the thread for media bullshit.

 

[Zapcity]

Just watched Pep’s press conference. “They will be fined because they didn’t invite me”. The guy is so dry and straight faced. I could not love him more.

Enjoyed this on two levels.
Firstly, the fact he really does seem to be coming to terms with the cynical British press these days.
Secondly, as you point out, good use of good old dry, sarcastic (almost self mocking) British sense of humour!)

Fair enough mate I didn’t realise..

Excuse me if I'm wrong, but in Delooney's rants over the last few years, hasn't he been a bit vocal about our owners and human rights? Well i have just noticed on twitter that he is out in Abu Dhabi for the world club thing. He really must have had to grapple with his conscience to go out there.

This is what we are missing from journalism, real commitment to putting what you believe to one side to report the news, despite the horrors that may confront you. I'm sure he will be in and out of there as soon as possible. and I for one, will be looking forward to his inciteful (sorry - insightful) disection of the match.

Btw, He needs to be careful and not accept any trips into the dessert.

Gotta love the MUEN - polishing a rancid old turd.
