Aston Villa right up our arses now, and playing well ...... I can't believe we had that Morgan Rogers on our books for over three years, and didn't give him a proper chance ..... all we did was loan him to three clubs , and then fkn sold him !
Lookin at his age, the form he's in now, and the goals he's scoring, that has to go down as yet another major clanger dropped by City.

They rely on ratboy too much and he might be out for a while. I wouldn't be surprised if he'll be playing next game though. He never seems to be injured
10 out of a possible 24. That's a veritable teiumph, that is.Take the Wolves game out and it’s 1 win in 7

He clearly had the potential, otherwise he wouldnt have been wanted by City in the first place ...... we should have done more to convince him that his future lay here, he didnt come here to be moved around the country .... how must loaning him out to three clubs have made him, and his parents feel ??Look at the players we had, the trophies we won!
We should have properly monitored him in our academy sides, and moved him towards our first team squad accordingly ....
City didn't sell him to Boro until 2023 ..... the likes of David Silva had gone, and KDB and Bernardo were probably getting itchy feet and making noises about leaving by then.

60 points won't get you fifth. No chance.They are still better than everyone below them though.
The league is so inconsistent that you will probably only need high 50/ low 60 points to get CL football this year (top 5)
Shoulda, woulda, coulda, in case you havent noticed we've done okay without him and remind me what has he won again.He clearly had the potential ...... we should have done more to convince him that his future lay here, he didnt come here to be moved around the country .... how must loaning him out to three clubs have made him, and his parents feel ??

The short term thinking and subsequent wailing by some city fans is draining sometimes.

This is about the long term , not the short term ..... Villa have probably got a top class player for the next ten years there !Shoulda, woulda, coulda, in case you havent noticed we've done okay without him and remind me what has he won again.

You say that, but City must have seen something in him in the first place ..... we have had a reputation for signing top kids from other clubs for some years now.q

He came from West Brom. He says he realised he wasn’t good enough at that stage of his development. Obviously kids develop at different ages, he realised he wasn’t cutting it and of his 3 loan periods away from the club only one helped him get his head right.You say that, but City must have seen something in him in the first place ..... we have a reputation for signing top kids from other clubs.
