Pep has surprised me this season - giving up total ball control for a more flexible system.
Many players could thrive under Pep - but many talented players have not.
Fun (or maybe not) fact.
When I started playing football as a 7 year-old, I was RCB in a 5-3-2 formation - standard at the time.
In college, I was set to join UC Riverside as a defensive midfielder, but due to my major, I transferred to UCLA (and wasn't good enough to get into that squad - alas).
Another Tuesday - Election day.
Let's see how results stand - I'm 100% skeptical of anything I view online about how unpopular Trump is and how bad the polls are for him and... FLASH!!! BOMBSHELL polls crush GOP hopes!!!... or somesuch, almost every single youtube post I see.
With luck...
>> You come over as a complete prat.
It's one of my most endearing qualities :-).
That said, I treat - or at least hope I do - honest discourse respectfully.
But shit posters claiming or insinuating that I'm not a fan of City - or bringing my American nationality into question (hey, I fucking...
I think you're replying to the wrong post, LOL.
I fucking post whatever the fuck I think - heat be damned. I'm not only in the kitchen... I'm in the Goddamn frying pan!
For a supposed non-happy clapper - you're clapping quite loudly.
As for "soccerball" - wtf is that? We play football... Oh.. I get it!!! It's a fucking smear against American fans.
And in opposition to your claim, there is, in fact, a standout side in the league - Arsenal.
Have you watched...
According to Google...
The Premier League record for winning the title with the most games to spare is seven, set by Liverpool in the 2019-20 season. This was the earliest a team has ever won the Premier League title in terms of matches left to play.
Liverpool (2019-20): Secured the title...
This post is so ridiculously stupid that I'm at a loss to posit a cogent reply. But here goes:
1) You regard loyalty as diametrically opposed to criticism - the two are not related. One may fervently hope that City win the title (as I do) but at the same time have an honest, unbiased opinion...
No you?
FFS... this is a thread about whether or not we'll win the league. Your post is:
1) Content free;
2) Insulting;
3) And either you're simply farming for likes - or are a City fan-boy no matter what.
Calm down please.
Why did I think that Donnarumma was going to be a disaster?
Why did I think that Cherki was prone to be lazy on defense?

Here's the main thing - it's Pep. The best manager in world football - he's adapted his ball control above all else style and has changeS
100%...
