Not sure if its been mentioned, I can't keep up with all the posts on this forum, but there was a segment on the Monday Night Club on 5 Live last night about our academy and the number of players who have come through it that are playing in the PL at the minute.
Followed by an interview with Brian Barry Murphy.

Was pretty good and insightful.

The main take away for me was that they rate Oscar Bobb higher than Palmer

I'm intrigued that I'm seeing and hearing increasing discussion of players playing "too many games" across the media. What is, particularly interesting is that you'd think they'd major on the increasing number of international matches. Not a bit of it, every discussion centres around the club world cup in the summer which "no one is interested in".

I'm not sure how City and Chelsea playing an extra tournament would impact on, say, liverpool, arsenal or the rags given that they haven't qualified and their shills and fans are on the outside, noses pressed against the window, looking in.

Perhaps it has something to do with the £60m we stand to earn.

It’s suspicious that this narrative has been started. The Club WC only affects City and Chelsea and we could make £150m from it. It has no impact on English football at all. The real issue are the absurd number of international games. Masters and his pals are fighting the Club WC. I wonder why.

I note the BBC are airbrushing City out of articles.
Arteta article about how much he learnt from Pochettino.
Another article with some berk talking about the Big teams having top coaches. He mentioned about 5 clubs, guess who wasn’t mentioned…

Its in plain sight...hate to say it but out MSM are majority right wing racist even down to sports coverage
 
I've said it before, but we should have a lot more fans and be a lot bigger if it weren't for the media.
We're portrayed as the bad guys of football and have been for a number of years now.

I'm not particularly bothered about being "big", but its just noticeable when talking to young people and their media influenced opinion of us is that we're cheats, all about money, plastic etc

Not entirely true, on top of our current income they'll never catch us.

They are desperate to get it stopped which is strange as it gives them something to talk about, headlines & plenty of traction. So why, what is the motive & who is behind it?

If their beloved aren’t there, why would they want to be when they can be sunning themselves on the beach.

Fair point. That’s why the red cartel are starting a new campaign against us. I think the Club WC will be much more entertaining than watching England against a pub team.

City V Boca

The jealous cunts would all be tuning Into watch that.

100%.

Without the attempt to destroy us, we'd be the most popular club in the country and many EFL clubs second favourite team.

Aside from reputational & image damage, the red yank cartels onslaught over 10 years has cost us £millions£ in commercial losses.

I hope,with every bone in my body, that we exact the most devastating revenge and recompense.

"Once and for all" !!

What a story for our impartial media that would be.
Ushited win the title in their 150th anniversary.
Howard's got his work cut out to get this over the line and deliver, but I'm sure he'll give it his very best shot

Rio Ferdinand before the match on TNT sports absolutely seething that we can beat uniteds record in champions league tonight if you exclude penalties. Looked like he was going to right hand the female commentator

He shouldn’t be anywhere near coverage of our matches, as we all know.

Edit. And as he knows, and TNT know.

Might as well have done, she wouldn’t even have flinched
 
And so it starts. I predicted earlier that the press would be raving about Arsenal.

The pundit on Sly covering the Arse game has said they can win the CL.

I guess then that would make them a big club - because, after all you HAVE to win the CL to be a Big Club ( if you don't wear a red shirt....). Playing Real and Atletico/ Bayern, Dips is very different than playing PSG. Come back when they have made mincemeat of Bayern and Real and I might start to think he's onto something!
