Plenty of layers mate, you can always take them off if you are too warm.

I’ve been going since 2000/6 years old so will be wrapped up like the Michelin man!! Learnt the hard way haha

Love Pep’s attitude in the Sky pre match interview. Reporter kept asking about transfers despite Pep’s opening comments that he won’t be talking about other clubs players. Told them in no uncertain terms (shouts) I’M NOT GOING TO TALK ABOUT TRANSFERS DO YOU UNDERSTAND :) :-)

Pep’s back after that pre game interview. Much more relaxed, back to himself, being mischievous again. Refused to be drawn on transfers but obviously a lot going on. Ederson now fit, but no Dias or Stones. If sounded like Bobb’s not far away, and wouldn’t be surprised if Haaland plays given Pep’s comment, wait and see …

Rodri Dias Stones all out.

Everyone else trained.

Three players out is back to normal levels, it’s just that it’s our best player out for the longest.

Yes. He was noticeably different today. Back to his old self. Great to see

Encouraging that OB is back in training , will be interesting to see how Pep uses him for the remainder of the season.

I have doubts that we will be involved in much activity during January in or out and we shall sink or swim as far as Chumps League this season with a top 4 perhaps top 5 position.

You would expect Forrest to collapse in the final half the season but after 20 games they have to be considered more than an outside chance of finishing in the top 4 this season.

Newcastle are looking good , Chelsea are most at risk IMO if Palmer has a lull which is looking better game by game now but we have a horrendous run leading up to the next break and unless we keep in touch with these sides its all over red rover for us.

Contrary to many I believe if we miss out on Europe altogether I am not concerned at all regarding our obvious massive rebuild in the next two years.

We will return to the top again and sooner than some would think.

The useless BBC must employ utter morons.

Does not matter what you look like as long as long as you warm

Will we ever see Stones again?

Will we ever see Stones again?

I’m struggling to remember the times we did!

Absolutely not!

Surely Harland starts tomorrow........

Giggs-Director of football #****

Time for a resurrection of the Giggs Joy Division song perhaps.

 

[Winchester]

Wonder how many of the Salford "fans" going,
Have been banned from the swamp
99.9%?

 

[Man_City_Loyal]

Hope we put 10 past these plastic ex rag cunts. fucking pricks. Even wife shagger giggs is one of the coaches now I believe. Fuck off Salford City.

ryan giggs is illegitimate, he's .....

 

[big gaz]

Will we ever see Stones again?

Think " Misery " then think Eccles blue theres the answer ;-)

 

[stan bowles]

I wondered why the BBC was pushing Ryan Giggs on their site this week and now it all becomes clear. Back to '99 and the 'wonder' goal vs Arsenal in the Cup semi final. Class of '92. Blah, blah, blah. His reputation is reclaimed by the wonders of Media City.

 

[Dave Ewing's Back 'eader]

From the BBC website:

• Since losing 1-0 to Wigan in the FA Cup fifth round in 2017-18, Manchester City have won their last 24 matches against sides from a lower division (across both League Cup and FA Cup) by an aggregate score of 88-12.

What could possibly go wrong?

Had any of those Gooners put in a half-hearted tackle he wouldn't have even got the shot off!

We're shit but not that shit.

7-1 City.
