Can't help but feel a little sad when thinking of Yaya as he was such a figurehead of the team and club until Cakegate and the Guardiola accusations. Should be universally recognised as an all time great and for huge contribution to clubs progression but just struggle to have those feelings...

Saw this thread and spent 20 minutes watching you tube videos of Aguero goals. God he was good. We have truly been spoilt with some great strikers (Dzeko, Tevez , Haaland) but Sergio is at the top of the list for goals I enjoy watching again and again and nearly all the reels end with that...

Remember the Manchester evening news picture gallery from that match. A couple of friends and the brother in law were in the rogues gallery along with a few other regular faces. Was in the new Umbro stand for that match and the mood was not great as expectation had been building up around...

Must admit I have stopped watching much outside of city apart from sneaking in the Girona games (although La Liga is generally poor). Not worth the grief and a lot of the quality is poor. Even watching the Arsenal or Liverpool games hoping for an opposition win gets tiresome when they always...

Don't have an issue with a new competition replacing the CL IF its an open one with no fixed entrants but based on qualification on the pitch. The reality though , even though its now being sold as such , it would not take long before the door was shut on most teams. In effect the CL already...

Think all 3 are talented but immensely difficult to start out at City as your not just sent out to express yourself as a young player you are required to play in a system that involves a lot of work to close the opposition down and take up positions to stop passing lines when out of possession...

Gvardiol has had a decent first half of the season so far. He has huge potential and is learning our system while playing in the left back role. Think he will excel when playing in the centre half position if/when we ever get a left back. On balance both Gvardiol and Doku signings have been...

There are no teams to fear in the league and no team anywhere near the standards we have set in the last 3 seasons. We look lacking in the quality on the bench we have enjoyed in the past with Philips , Kovacic and Nunes either clearly not being to standard or still finding their feet in the...

Rule 68; Threatening behaviour whilst holding an inflatable fruit.

Incredible cash for being the dark shadow over every new managers shoulder , assume it ensures he is not allowed to be vocal in any way against the owners past or present. Means £2m less for them to spend on anything useful so all good.

Think we could have easily racked up quite a few more if we'd really needed to but was content giving game time to those who needed it and protecting as many as we could for bigger games. Think Haaland was played to grab a goal to get over his dry spell against Bournemouth, thought Kovacic ...

What's this crisis the media are describing at United ? Its all going wonderfully well. Really enjoying pouring my post work drink , getting out the popcorn and watching the latest goings on. Wonderful stuff. Another £50 in the holiday tin after the Derby result from rag workmates and with a...

Probably thinks the Trafford centre is Manchester. If the only comeback to our footballing superiority is they sell more replica shirts than us or silly bucket hats then I am happy , it means we are still winning on the field and keeps the Glazers happy financially - win win.

Bottom line Gascoigne had and has some serious mental health issues that in themselves don't make him a good or bad individual. When he was at the top his game and earning huge sums much of his troubled behaviour was overlooked, ignored or put down to high jinks and I doubt he was offered any...

Agree with this. Gundogan is absolutely missed as he could control the game , create opportunities for others against a tightly packed defence and weighed in with goals. Think his replacement was planned to be Pacqueta and we have to adapt and cover him with a combination of players to cover the...

Think Palace are expecting to turnover £170m plus this year so will be spending about 6% of it on Eze's wages. Big commitment if that's the offer but at least £100m of that turnover is dependent on them staying in the top flight and if keeping him helps ensure it well worth the risk. Probably...

Can't remember him getting many games but we did , surprisingly , get our money back on him flogging him to Bristol -can't remember if it was rovers or city but same dog washed.

It made his head swell ?

Ken MacNaught , Granville , Lee Peacock , the bloke called skippy , Karim Kerker (not sure he played) , Maicon (He did but wish he had'nt)

Was a decent player in his day, think he dis-appeared to the american league followed by Steve Kinsey a few years later when they had turned it into a glorified five a side league played indoors. Did'nt we end up with Ivan Golac on loan that year ? Had high hopes for any foreign players as a...
