I love KDB and the way he drives forward and can produce those inch perfect through balls are a thing to behold. Part of me thinks he works better with 2 flying wingers though, we don't make as many runs in behind and our style of play is generally slower with more passes and structure. So as...

Glad to see some more good news floating around! My wife who is a teacher tested positive last week and I subsequently caught it, I’ll tell you what having 2 young kids while fighting off the virus was hard going!

Jesus Christ this thread has taken a dramatically bad turn for the worse. So firstly - this mutation that could evade the vaccine etc. This might make the vaccine slightly less efficient but still probably around %60, so more people may show signs of illness but severe illness will still be...

https://www.globenewswire.com/news-release/2021/01/23/2163109/0/en/Colchicine-reduces-the-risk-of-COVID-19-related-complications.html Some really encouraging medical breakthroughs are happening recently. To quickly summarise the above article, In a randomised, double-blind...

Watched The Expanse after it was recommended a fair bit on here. Really enjoyed first 2 seasons but finding season 3 and 4 a bit of a slow burner. I really like Vikings and the last kingdom and recently watched a show called barbarians which was decent. Any other shows of that ilk people can...

I’d also add people should ignore the current MSM headlines about the lockdown not working. The data they are all reporting from has the Dates of survey being 8-15th January. Prevalence takes longer to fall than incidence as people test positive with a PCR for a period of time. So ignore...

Firstly, the conclusions being drawn from this study is that the 502.V2 variant would render these vaccines ineffective. This is highly unlikely. It will take a large amount of genetic diversity to completely render the current vaccines useless. Why? Vaccines are polyclonal. This study didn’t...

Good question - if it was a dog or partner I’d say get rid of the partner without giving it a second thought. As cats are like vermin I’d say choose the partner but really guilt trip them over it.

Sorry to hear that! I personally work in the recruitment sector doing hospitality, so with 2 young kids and excluded due to starting in March 2019 I can appreciate how hard going it can be. Keeping ones mind thinking about the good times ahead truly keeps me happy, and just finding small things...

Reading through a number of threads from either off topic or just general city talk it’s alarming the number of exceptionally negative people about. Now the definition of positive thinking is; Positive thinking is an emotional and mental attitude that focuses on the good and expects results...

Excuse my french but that Athletic article is a croc of shite. 10k payment made 9 years ago, and it’s like the end of the world is coming down. City completely deny the claim and the dad went to a couple of scouting training sessions anyway. even if they didn’t this sort of thing has been going...

RIP Colin! The true definition of a legend and one of the good guys. I used to play tennis with Colin at Hale Barns tennis club and he was such a gentleman.

Time to bump this. 500,000 people will have been vaccinated against Covid by end of today in the UK. A member of the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices which advises the CDC in the USA, suggests so far the vaccines appear to still work against the new mutant strain. The Oxford...

Good post. The reason pep doesn’t play foden at cm is he deems him to lose the ball too often and not defensively strong enough. Foden is best doing quick one twos with players around him and therefore creating space. If he has nobody to link with as he’s stuck out wide it negates his...

If this was a transition period as you state I would hope that would provide some more glimmers of hope. We aren’t playing any young players or giving them bench time so it can’t be stated we are bringing them through so trusting youth to develop and come good. This season we are clearly...

As my age inevitably increases I’ve come to the realisation that I’m turning in to a miserable fucker when I’m driving. Things that previously wouldn’t bother me now really seem to push my buttons so how pissed off do you get when in the car at other drivers. Just some of the things that...

I was about to mention this. Most games against a deep line we push walker and mendy very wide and very high up the pitch. Now sadly we are not talking about amazing attacking full backs, both walker and now Mendy don’t have an end product, so inevitably they lose the ball with an aimless cross...

I am gutted about last night and Pep clearly got it completely wrong. My main point was we know the way we play best and hopefully in the cold light of day Pep looks back and learns from this. From the initial interviews after the game Pep seemed to think the system worked well, but hopefully...

Like most replies I love pep to bits. The way he sticks up for the club, has won us titles and broke records, all with an attacking style of football. I think most people would say when we had fernandinho at dm, David Silva at lcm pulling the strings and kdb at rcm, with sterling and sane...

We really miss someone dynamic to run at the Chelsea defence. Dare I say we miss foden which shows he is now such a valuable player in the first team.
