Media thread 2022/23

Another year, likely another City title, and all the media's team of the year choices lack a simple majority of City players in each of them. Somehow, our club is winning 4 or 5 out of 6 titles without having the best players. Credit to Pep for doing miracles with such mediocrity.

Fucking rashford!!!!

Good article. It's a shame they had to get a City fan to write it and not a 'journalist'.

It's a Paul merson team of the season....say no more! :-)

Absolute pure gas-lighting desperation to include Casemiro and Shaw over Rodri and Ake.

I don't even think they're kidding united fans with that.

Ta. Has the tide started to turn ? Will Roney and Liuew be seeking new employment? Will Blincoe ever be allowed near a keyboard again ? So many questions.

The Guardian have an article by Nicolas Blincoe. I'm a foc so can't copy and paste but it is well worth a read. It's good.....I can't believe I'm typing that, in fact it's very good. He's a City fan and very knowledgeable about who actually owns us and makes a simple statement. We are not state owned.

(He even mentions drugs and City but let's himself down with no awoooooooo)

Hang on I’m not falling for that. We know what the City fans who work for the Guardian are really like.

Fuck off Neville

Celtic getting plaudits for 11 out of 12 titles and on course for a 5th treble(those figures may not be spot on) this morning, wonder if we'll get the same gushing?

Considering the media are claiming Wrexham don't feel to be plastic or artificial, I'd say.......... NO.

So surprised the Guardian have printed this. His explanation of how the UAE is made up, Abu Dhabi, the history of the clans and difference to Saudi and Qatar is excellent and needs to be rammed down the throats of their other journos. No comments opened on this one though, surprise surprise!

May as well be City.

There's an otb podcast that's claiming you would want fat Sam rather than Pep in a relegation battle. I wonder what makes them think a Pep team would ever be struggling in that position?

Binned it years ago and I’m still astonished fellow blues give it Oxygen only to be offended by some of its content.

I dont take it too seriously,its designed to cause reaction.....so if you take it for what it is,the banter,bullshit,and debate can be good fun.

Shaw FFS!

I wouldn't swap Riyad in for Shaw at left back. Bit too weak in the tackle tbf.

 

[eastmanc]

So no jeopardy, unlike the fact it went 2-1 and we were all shitting ourselves at the prospect of Leeds sneaking an equaliser?

How true. These idiots in the press are always looking for a negative in what we do and how we play. Would the same question be asked to Liverpool or United fans? The answer is no because as we are aware they have both had periods in their past of dominating the league and that question was never asked.

 

[eastmanc]

Believe fat boy Rooney has written an excellent article in Times this morning, saying we'll destroy Madrid in semi, but also going against all other journalists in pointing out that CL can be work in progress and reminding people it took Utd many years to win the CL under Fergie. Also he feels when we get our first we'll win several

Fat boy is trying his best to jinx us. Having said that it is a well balanced opinion piece.

Very eloquent Mr Rooney………sure

Is there a journalist’s name alongside the piece too?

 

[stonerblue]

Sporting imbecile.

Does this gimp say the same about Liverpool?
