I'm repeating & questioning your logic ya plank! :-) I then explained that we're a team in transition & not the City of old, so IF we do have a drop off in performance & energy after Christmas, a degree of context, realism & understanding is required. Hopefully this settles the issue in your...

So you've added making shit up to your growing neurosis hey? You seem to have had no previous issues trawling through my previous posts in your futile attempts to underpin whatever point it is you're trying to make, but suddenly your brain cell & post forensics obsession has failed you? You...

A couple of things... I'm Dribble, not Christ Almighty. Also, exactly where have I said City usually tail off after Christmas?

The advice is more for the benefit of everyone else having to endure your inane ramblings. Your posts highlight all that's wrong with the international break, where there's no meaningful football to talk about, so posters like you float to the top of the toilet bowl. Give your fingers a rest...

Another bit of free advice. Put your devices down & take a break from the Internet fella. It'll be for the best...

I'm just cutting to the chase to save on going around the houses with you fella. Agreed, Pep personally isn't in transition but his team is, & seeing as Guardiola doesn't play football for us, he's a manager managing a team in transition, which should never have happened. As for Pep's...

I recall seeing stats of a decline in performances from most teams who've played a midweek CL game, so it comes as no surprise that our second half performance against Brentford seriously dipped & why we setup & played as we did against Arsenal. 4 points from two away games is a decent PL...

A drop off in performance as we usually get? The difference this time being is we're not the City of the last few seasons. We're a new team in transition, so a degree of context, realism & understanding regarding our performances is required.

Against a team playing at home after they had a week off?

Not because he was outstanding, I just think he was the best of a bad bunch.

Shockingly shit, but 3 points away is a good 3 points... Up until we scored, we were playing like the Champions of old, with a swagger & precision that matched City in our pomp. However, after 25 minutes, we got into a predictable, robotic tempo & aside from the Reijnders chance, we never...

Six year contract until 2031! Brilliant news & draws a line under the summer transfer shenanigans. Hopefully now everyone will move on & give the lad the time & space he deserves to develop & achieve his full potential at Manchester City...

It was telling that Pep said it was a club decision not to sell Savinho, which further leads me to believe that Pep's influence over squad planning has been reduced. Savinho was one of the few bright sparks we had in parts of last season. He just needs to brush up on his decision making &...

This season, our performances have improved. We're not back to 2023-24 levels, but the signs of progression are there. I can't see us winning shit this season, however, I'm not daft enough to rule it out either, because luck also plays a part in winning the CL. City put themselves in the...

Agreed 100%. We shot ourselves in the foot by delaying our succession planning, so this season & probably the next one too, is all about rebuilding, progression & CL qualification. Anything on top of that is a bonus imo. However, if anyone's capable of earning that bonus, it's City, because of...

The reality is that there's always two professional teams on the pitch. We're not playing against training cones, so the opposition can't be discounted as being irrelevant in terms of our performances. The elite squad advantage we held for so long evaporated because of our negligence in not...

We won the Champions League 1-0.

I don't blame Gonzalez for the equaliser. European football's become a non-contact sport & it's ruining the game & encourages embarrassing displays of injury acting. We have No 6 & RB as our two problem positions. If Gonzalez keeps performaning & improving at the rate he is, we can soon chalk...

I thought Gonzalez was excellent. In fact, I think he performed better than Rodri in the 37 minutes he played. The reason for my MoTM award to him, is not just because of tonight's performance, it's because he's crucially lessening our reliance on Rodri during his comeback from the ACL. Rodri's...

Fuckin gutted!!! I had this horrible feeling that the brick headed twat Dier would have bearing on the match. I didn't know he'd signed for Monaco until I saw the familiar former Spuds block head lining up for them. We made a steady start to the match & were comfortably in control, when...
