I never thought it would happen.... With me and a girl from Clapham.

My favourite ever City player, although we're in the enviable position of having many candidates to choose from. I trawled through YouTube highlights yesterday and enjoyed watching some of those assists and a few goals in there too. But what those videos don't show is how he found space, when...

It would explain the rags and Liverpool having gone from being up for sale, to dragging their feet. Seeing as they were the main instigators last time, I'm sure they've seen a fresh opportunity with the growing Saudi league influence.

I've not been following this thread during the summer break and been having a break from the sports pages in general... I really recommend it and I'm going to try not to get as caught up in it during the season. The media coverage of City is so blinkered I find myself getting worked up by...

David Silva is the player I've enjoyed watching the most, his touch, flair and ability to dictate the tempo of a game was a joy to watch. Having said that, I remember a friend of mine saying to me "Silva determines how well we play, but doesn't win matches on his own". Whilst I'm sure there are...

Sorry to see him go. I've really enjoyed watching him over the years and he played some of his best football in big champions league games. As others have said, it is fair comment that he was frustrating at times, but he was a really important player, who contributed a lot for us and his first...

I thought Blackbird was brilliant, really rated it. Some fantastic performances in the cast and it's crazy that it's based on a true story.

The plans for the new City Square, or equivalent look brilliant. I enjoyed City Square, but as the weather in Manchester is shit for most of the football season the fact it was open air was a big draw back. I used to feel sorry for some of the guests and the presenters doing the interviews to...

Penny for his thoughts when we won the treble? I think he qualified for a medal for all trophies, but he had the chance to have been part of football immortality and is consigned to merely a footnote There's a lesson there for any young footballer. I had nothing against Cancelo and really...

Love the interviews Pep did that night. The Spurs home game was the turning point in our season. I said at half timr to the lads I sit with that I thought we'd win the league if we came back to win that game (I wasn't thinking of a treble at that point!). Pep came out after the match and put a...

Just waiting in the queue now. They've announced they're temporarily pausing handing out tickets shortly due to numbers. They said they're going to reassess and will reopen for tickets later when they get the queue down a bit. My waiting time has been about 90 minutes, but it's got busier since...

I went to the Arndale when they were there the other week. It was free and the staff were taking the pictures on people's phones, no official photographer trying to upsell you or anything and the staff were brilliant. I thought it was really well done. Hopefully the same for everyone going tomorrow!

I've not wandered over to the dark side to take a look, but I'm assuming they're all referencing the role their beloved Ferguson had in the Glazers getting their paws on the club in the first place. The Rock of Gibraltar horse played a fine part in their downfall!

Barca have been linked with Cancelo, wonder if he could be used in any deal? As others have said, if the player doesn't want to move then it is irrelevant, but Barca could do with a big cash injection.

I bought that shirt from a random shop in Heald Green, not convinced it was a sports shop, any no idea how those shirts ended up on sale there.... The shirt had a weird smell about it, even after it had been through the wash a few times. I can't see that kit and not think about that!

When City put in the official bid I was confident, as I assumed we wouldn't go down that route if we weren't certain he would join. Presumably Arsenal are similarly confident. I guess we'll see today where City stand, if we aren't planning on bidding again I'm sure we'll leak that we have walked...

Agreed. I would say I'm baffled that Chelsea have allowed him to leave, but they are truly clueless. He should have been essential to their squad, as I'm sure he will be for us. Looking forward to watching him in a City shirt.

Ah ok mate, thanks I did not know that!

Apologies if it's been done to death, but does anyone know if there are plans for us to put a star over the badge to celebrate the European Cup win, the way Inter etc have over theirs?

Because our board and senior execs have nothing better to do than spend their time trying to help Arteta sign a player. We're so big time now we help rival teams to sign their players, rather than focus on our own transfers. It's embarrassing on every level. I actually feel sorry for her, she's...
