He hasn't played well but honestly, their team just looks completely neutered. They're no more effective with him off or on. I can't decide if it'd be good if they lost to Denmark or what.. would prefer for his confidence for him and Brazil to do well but maybe him getting back to club football...

Couldn't have asked for a much better draw than this. They're a known entity of course but we shouldn't have any difficulty dispatching them. Nice to get the away fixture out of the way first as well. Hopefully we kill the tie early.

Could be right in terms of him potentially coming in as a sub at times, but Bayern played 52 games last year and Lewandowski played in 51 of them and Muller played in 49. But guys like Coman, Costa, Ribery, Robben missed a number of games due to rotation. Obviously Ribery and Robben were due to...

No, no he doesn't. This is an idiotic and nonsensical post and I say that with no slight at all directed towards Rashford who is fantastic. Gabriel Jesus is (was) one of the most wanted youngsters in the world. This is a massive signing -- he looks like Aguero's long-term replacement to me. I...

I think it's just about impossible to guess until we see what he lines up with against Arsenal. That will probably be close to the team he starts. I am very curious who will make up the attackers outside of Aguero -- I think he is probably the only one who can be certain he'll play every game...

Wow. Tencent are absolutely massive -- quite the coup. They own the developer of League of Legends and recently purchased the vast majority of the Clash of Clans developer Supercell for over $8 billion. Just watching the video -- think that might be about the first time I've heard Silva speak...

Not even remotely true. You're suggesting the fact he's playing a pre-season friendly precludes him from coming. KDB not only played in the preseason, he played a few regular season games. There is nothing in Stones playing that changes anything.

Agreed. I don't understand why we have not chosen to subsidize their wages for 1-2 years a la Adebayor, but I can't really begin to try and understand the complexities of these deals or what Txiki is thinking.

Main issue is just finding a team that will take them and getting them to leave. It's a two-way street. If Sevilla is actually interested and Navas would like the move, then I think we should let him go. We have a litany of attacking mids/wingers -- I think Zinchenko could slot into the role...

I just can't believe we didn't schedule at least 1 or 2 tune-up type games. Nothing but glamour friendlies with very little time to give the kids a true run-out seems like a huge oversight. A game vs a team like Wigan would have gone a long way. Why not play Bury or something?

There's a nearly 4 year difference in age. Zaba doesn't feel like he's ready to retire yet presumably.

Their transfer window closed. So much for flogging one of our dead weight players to China this summer. :(

You are probably right about this faction, but the reality is that is a very small part of the supporter base and the club will not cater to them above any other group at this point. Such is life.

Welcome to 2016, I hope you've enjoyed sleeping for the past decade or so. City have to make money anyway they can -- player trading is one possible way to do so. Mooy is the best Ausrtralian NT player right now and is definitely good enough to play for teams in the Premier League. City will...

No more out of touch than this! Blue Moon definitely doesn't represent the majority of supporters. Or even much more than a small minority of them.

It's unbelievable that we simply cannot figure out a way to shift any of our dead weight to China. What's the point of getting partnered with a big Chinese firm if we can't take advantage of it?! I was certain we'd be able to sell Yaya and Bony there this summer. There's lots of time left, but...

Perfectly stated. Navas isn't going to get better. He simply can't get better -- that much is very clear. With Nolito coming in, we need a winger to go. My vote is Navas (even if they play on opposite sides). If he stays for one more season and provides depth, I'm fine with that, but there are...

It's pretty embarrassing, frankly. He's been top drawer for multiple seasons now and would be a bargain at 14m. 5 goals now for him in 11 international appearances.

You guys were saying?

City have been linked in some capacity for quite awhile now but Barca have a first right of refusal due to the Neymar transfer. Doubt it'll ever happen for us.
