if it get's late and city is still down, I say they just have some kicks at nani. I can't stand that whining cnut.

and we became tops on the road no less. When you think about it -if we take last years home form and combine it with 5 or 6 away days like this, we're definitely pushing for top four.

Is it ok to say I have a man crush on Robinho?

Toure just isn't on his game yet. It's reasonable to say we haven't seen his best yet, unlike Dunne who looks as clumsy as a bull in a china closet and he isn't getting any better. Even if we don't get Lescott (which I think we will) -when Kompany is fit he'll take the spot next to Toure. Fear...

Getting other creative playmakers to put around Robinho before signing defenders makes sense to me. It's just playing to our existing stengths. Am I totally off on this one?

I thought clubs like Everton and Villa were complaining how City's money was sklewing the transfer market, but it seems to me that they all play their part by gouging us and making City pay extra. Do you think that Everton would've asked for the same amount if it had been Arsenal, Villa, Fulham...

I'm no authority on this but it stands to reason that this could work in City's favor. Undoubtedly the Abu Dhabi Group has much more equity than any single club in Europe, so while clubs like Real Madrid are getting loans (with very favorable rates) from Catalan banks to buy their new...

The problem with this stance is that Beckham knew full well when he signed on that it was a "tinpot league", but signed anyway. If his primary concern is getting in the England squad then why go to the Galaxy in the first place? The truth is Beckham and his representation made a bad decision...

Since so many US blues (including myself) have turned up lately -how many of you started out as rag haters first? Since the scum are such an annoying world wide phenomena, I hope other city fans realize what a ray of hope this club represents to the football supporting world.

Well said. On another note -Spain is obviously the more talented squad but for the US to show as much grit and determination as they did speaks well for our determination to consistently compete with the worlds top sides. We have a long way to go, but matches like today will do wonders for our...

Actually, I kinda dig it. I know that I'm supposed to think it's slick, which would normally mean that I'd think it's shit, but for some reason it works on me. If I wasn't shit broke I'd really be looking forward to ordering both a home and third shirt.

Anyone else think that this might be a good thing for the U.S.? We've tanked and it's time to get real, which might just mean that Bob Bradley gets the ax. I don't intend that in a mean spirited way either -Bradley has done all he could, but at this point he's out of his league and his tactics...

Well said -I'd be irritated anyway that we lost, but it just had to be that little prick who WHO WAS BORN IN JERSEY!

are we supposed to introduce ourselves? I didn't really bother, but while I'm at it and instead of starting a new thread... I'm a U.S. blue in Pennsylvania about 1 1/2 hours drive west of Philly (any others out this way at all?). It kinda sucks having to watch matches by myself.

We'll see soon enough just how hypocrytical these Liverpool fans are. They're gonna get bought out one of these days and then they'll have some monopoly money of there own to play with -let's see how pious they are then. All of this City hatin' is just envy and avarice.

No doubt top 4 is possible considering the league will be the primary focus, but even if we don't quite get there City is forcing the hand of the top 4 in the transfer market right now which means that in order to maintain their current status Rags, Chelsea, Liverpool, and Arsenal will have to...

Actually, I think the Brazilian model would work great in Australia. Have state tournaments to dictate what level of the pyramid each team should be on. When you consider just how large Brazil is and how they've managed to grow top clubs and competitions -I think that negates the geography...

I can't get into A-League for the same reason I can't consistently watch MLS here in the U.S. -they're socialist sports leagues. No system of promotion and relegation, instead it's that stupid franchise model which only encourages mediocrity. Granted, the A-League isn't quite as socialist as...
