Fun times. I see that big lump McBurnie is starting as a striker. His natural game is obviously about linking the play but with a very static striker will be harder to impact the game. Hopefully he can find a more selfish nature as his finish is first class.

Really hope he starts tonight. He seems to be playing a game and then resting for the next so seemingly this would be his chance. Doyle I know was injured but surely he needs to start featuring too.

I’m looking to spend a couple of hundred thousand more to upgrade houses.

With the cost of houses seemingly falling now, with figures suggesting a %1.3 fall in prices in August are we about to have a housing crash akin to 2008. Inflation soaring, interest rates rising sharply and staring in the face of a year long recession then something surely has to give. The...

I’m sure I read that Gavi wouldn’t sign a contract if Bernando did indeed move to Barcelona. I wouldn’t be surprised if we tried to engineer this in our favour. Gavi is right footed and an absolute magician!

I know a media chap at Chelsea and it’s fairly common knowledge that Neymar has been offered out. He said another club was further down the line, but at one point Chelsea were chasing it before giving up hope due to the player choosing elsewhere. No idea if said club was City but I suppose...

I do wonder if the club will be happy with Walker/ Rodri or Phillips being seen as the 4th choice. I personally wouldn’t be too unhappy with that and letting Mbete have the League Cup games. Obviously a risk but a smaller squad with younger players topping it up was the dream from the owners a...

It’s getting to the point where Boris might well trouble filling up the Minsters positions that are opening up. Hopefully Starmer can take Boris by the balls during PMQs.

From feeling it was inevitable Boris would be out on his arse within 24 hours I’m unsure now. Obviously the bumbling buffoon should be gone for his truly shocking ability to be even slightly trustworthy and honourable, but it seems that his other cabinet minsters have about as much integrity...

I can completely understand the point however not sure I can agree. So my thinking is say in the big games we play Walker as rb with the new lb or cancelo potentially. Then say the other player rotates out if Walker needs a rest. So the games against say Leyton orient in the cup, or the final...

Again I’d probably say I’m in the minority and I wouldn’t want James coming in. The reason being Walker and Cancelo are both world class players and can cover the position, now after that we have Yan Couto who is a rb and was on loan at braga. He’s been nominated for the golden boy and is meant...

I’m genuinely very excited by the sales of Gabby and Sterling. I think both had gone rather stale and needed a new environment - obviously loved them both during the time here though. The exciting element to me is the clear pathway now for the younger lads. Cole Palmer and james mcatee are both...

Jack was really good today and a with a few minor tweaks and he’ll be a key player for us. I love Cancelo, however he does average about 5 shots a game so Zinchenko probably gets the best out of Grealish.

Like most the overwhelming feeling of regret is burning a hole into my soul this morning. As is the common theme in this thread we didn’t have the legs in extra time and this probably was the difference. Ending with a midfield of rodri, gundo and fernandinho didn’t give us the drive we needed...

I’m genuinely impressed we have managed to convince so many of the younger players to sign new contracts. The pathway the management team speak of seems nigh on impossible. The hope would be 5 subs would ensure more dead rubber final 30 minutes where we can introduce younger players, however...

This is bewildering. Fernandinho has been goosed for the last 30 minutes and is literally walking now. Why on earth pep can’t make a couple more subs unless the players are are actually injured is crazy. feels like a lost opportunity this when they were on the ropes around the 65 min mark.

So you’re laughing at people saying it’s a shame we didn’t play some young players in a dead rubber game? I can’t actually see any posts slating the outcome? Just the situation with Walker getting a needless red and young players getting no minutes.

Well that was fairly drab wasn’t it. People having a moan are probably doing so as we had 5 exceptionally talented young players on the bench and that was the perfect time to let them gain some experience. I don’t give a flying fuck we lost the game, but for the likes of Palmer, McAtee and...

Really knocked me for six this one. I’ve got a 4 year old myself and the thought of that young boy going through the emotional and physical pain crushes me. I still find it crazy that the grandparents or uncles etc didn’t do more. I know in hindsight it might feel hard to do, but if any child...

I think Pep might rest Foden after playing both games. The Spanish boys and KDB should all start due to the extra days rest. Steffen Walker Cancelo Dias Laporte Rodri KDB Bernardo Grealish Sterling Torres 6-0
