Only other English team to win a trophy. Played an entire season without a recognised center forward. Our (incredibly limited) Keeper won the golden glove for the most clean sheets in a season. It wasn't because of him. It was the defence.

It's not too difficult to keep goals conceded looking respectable when you play park the bus hoofball.

I’d never heard of Rasmus Hojlund before this post.

I’ve just looked him up; there’s no way that he is going to be United’s main striker, surely?

Hojlund has scored one goal every four matches playing in the Danish, Austrian, and Italian leagues. He makes Anthony Martial (one in three) look prolific. His name sounds a bit like Haaland if you say it quickly though.

Ronaldo for the first half of the season and Weghorst for the second, neither of them centre forwards?
 
The resigning of Evans is hilarious on so many levels.

He was the man, who was sent off on 23/10/11, thus enabling, at least in part, the Sick Swan, a day that both City supporters and rags will remember for as long as they live, but for obviously different reasons.

As has been previously mentioned in this thread, JFE has been relegated TWICE since he left the shithole in Trafford. Now,,relegation isn’t always a reliable marker of a player’s ability, but it’s not a great recommendation.

Bringing JFE back to the swamp shows how far the rags have fallen. It seems that there is not a lot of money swilling around in the coffers at rag central, which for TWGC™️ is extremely embarrassing, and for the rest of us, extremely amusing.

As has been said on Bluemoon many times over the last few years, what a time to be a Blue.

Did you know that the highest attendance in all European competitions last season was in the Europa league. Can you guess the game?

Did you know Kim Kardashian has over 350M followers on Instagram.

Point being there are lots of fucking idiots out there.

Evan's had bad injuries at United and was in and out of the team. Never really had a proper long run at it. He went out to West Brom, where he did the hard yards, learned his trade amicably as a solid, ball playing defender. He stats back this up. Pep Guardiola tried to sign him for City in 2017 & 2019 but he stayed at Leicester where he was guaranteed first team football.

Bringing him in as 5th choice center back is a masterstroke, because he is the consummate professional and he wasn't exactly on the scrap heap, he was playing in the PL last season, and he is still Northern Ireland captain. If our youngsters cannot learn from someone who has played 500 professional games then we are in the wrong business. Oh, and he is free.

Haha. I didn’t expect a reply but that’s delusion at the grandest level.

I consider £60 to be a reasonable price for a once-only chance to see the top comedians at the Edinburgh fringe.

Have you gone quiet @Mr Edward's shoe mirror ?

I really wanted to get your reaction to the news that you didn't get the biggest crowd in European competition last season, plus that Barca v City got more for a pre-season friendly.

It's always worth making sure your claims are true...

Are you saying that the self-appointed, world's biggest, bestest, greatest football club (tm) hasn't sold out ?
It can't be true, they've got 659 million fans and a MASSIVE waiting list for season tickets don't you know.

Will Fish in defence for the Rags. Is he related to Billy the Fish!

That’s fucking disgusting!

Five first-teamers, if you count Jaded, and that’s a stretch, plus Maiden Mount and JFE.

What an absolute disgrace. The rags should be ashamed of themselves, but, of course, they have no shame.
