Not sure that’s a bonus if they’ve both been agitating for a move.
It´s still kind of the same as it was last season. Really hasn´t seen much improvement yet or that this team is playing different football. Nee to get the 3 points on sunday ,cause tough games are coming up fast and team needs to improveYeah I was a bit worried that Wolves caused us problems but couldn't finish. That 4-0 papered over cracks.
We allowed too many easy transitions to both teams.
And that's down to team selection/ tactics.
Hey Blue! Keep that chin up my friend. There's always something positive around every corner. I know it's hard sometimes, been there myself but there is a light at the end of the tunnel. And if bluemoon keeps you sane! Fill your boots my blue friend. CTWDThanks I dont do social media x
Bluemoon is my life - sad as it may seem
Tried to take my own life in 2010 and can honestly say this place helps me everyday
With out this place I'd be gone
He doesn't mind playing the attackers but Khusanov and/or Nunes should be in the back line until we can sort out the fucking midfield.
He is our best option for now and mediocre is bizarre way to put it. I don't think there is more than probably two RB's in the league id pick over him.Nunes is, at best, a mediocre Premier League right back, like Lewis.
Unfortunately, until we buy a good one we'll have issues in that position.
Long before the window opened, I thought we desperately needed a bit more physicality in midfield, a goalkeeper who could save us in tight games, and a consistently dependable right-back. Management evidently thought our priorities lay elsewhere, and whilst I’m pleased with the additions made, those three concerns remain unaddressed.
Given that we had invested so heavily in that department in January, both financially and numerically, I expected our ailments there to have been remedied. Time will tell.I would have added the lack of reliable CB bar Gvardiol (who is currently injured) as a major area to look at. Obviously this is with the caveat that we write off Khus and Reis for the near future.
We’re like a really big family, argue and bicker but love and support each other when needed. Hope you’re ok, reach out if you need a chat/rantThanks I dont do social media x

Have to agree. Galatasaray clearly have money, but seemingly don't want to pay our asking price, which is a completely reasonable one IMO. The GK situation has become a bit of a mess though with Traffords horror show Saturday.Gut feeling is that for all the noise, both Savinho and Ederson are still City players after the window closes.
I dont disagree with most of that.You have an advantage over me then, as I've never studied Donnarumma in great detail if I'm being honest. I've just noted his over all performances & drawn the conclusion that imo, he's vying for the best keeper in the world title alongside Ederson.
Both have their key advantages. Ederson is clearly the best keeper in the world with his feet. My point was that I'd never noticed Donnarumma being shit with his feet to the level that many on BM are saying.
That video showing the stats of 5 elite keepers was very revealing. Ederson isn't the shit shot stopper many were making him out to be, & Donnarumma isn't as shit with his feet as many were making out either.
Ederson is an enigma. There may never be another like him, but if he wants out, I can't think of a better replacement than Donnarumma. If we have to slightly adjust the way we play, then so be it.
We've lost legends before & never replaced them like for like. We got excellent replacement players who evolved our squad & became legends in their own right (Fernandinho & Rodri).
We'll have to do it again if Ederson does indeed leave this summer or next.
It goes both ways with young players. They are also younger, less disciplined and can be more volatile as well. Savinho is sitting out games and seems to be pushing for this move.Guess it depends on the level of agitation. Savinho is a kid so I reckon that situation will be fine. But with Ederson it is a bit of a worry. as per my reply to @Coatigan I think City should've dealt with the Eddie situation one way or the other earlier in the window.
Completely clueless. Donna big downgrade on James?! WeirdI'm fine with all of those except Donnarumma who is a bigger downgrade than Trafford!
Pep insists on Ederson style tactics with keepers not named Ederson and we've tried with Bravo, Caballero, Muric, Steffen, Ortega and now Trafford.
We're gonna lose like 9 games before Pep figures out Donnarumma isn't Ederson and can't build up like Ederson!
Gusto, James, Frimpong, Livramento, Porro, Munoz and Aina are all better than him, and that's just off the top of my head.He is our best option for now and mediocre is bizarre way to put it. I don't think there is more than probably two RB's in the league id pick over him.
I think we won the most points over the last 6-7 weeks of the season after the Dippers had all but secured the title & Arsenal had secured 2nd, & both were concentrating on the CL.Did we not have the best stats in the league last year from something like Jan onwards bar Liverpool ?
The club and Pep will get it right
There have been numerous factors in play
This is my point exactly!Yeah I was a bit worried that Wolves caused us problems but couldn't finish. That 4-0 papered over cracks.
We allowed too many easy transitions to both teams.
And that's down to team selection/ tactics.
Thats your opinion.Gusto, James, Frimpong, Livramento, Porro, Munoz and Aina are all better than him, and that's just off the top of my head.
He's an average Wolves midfielder who's played a few times at right back because we were desperate.
I've not payed much attention to Costa either in truth, so I'll cede to your better knowledge. I just hope we sort out the Ederson situation soon & make the right, long-term choice to replace him.I dont disagree with most of that.
I dont think Donna is the answer, i pay more attention to Keepers than more. Diogo Costa made more sense than Donna, i mean for us not as an overall keeper.
I think you will notice it once he starts playing for us. Dont get me wrong i hope I am miles wrong and he is top notch for us. To be clear, I want to be wrong here!
I think by the end of the deadline day our squad will stay exactly as it is now. No outgoings because Galatasaray are being tight fuckers and I think we'll be wanting more than they're offering for Ederson. Don't think it will be easy to shift Gundo and Akanji as well
