    Leroy Sane - 2016/2017 performances

    For me - Sane's biggest detriment is his lack of commitment to the high press - press every game and he'll be bound to start. He can break down opponent's one on one - either by sheer dribbling or through pace or by a combination of both - once past his opponent he can shoot, or make a killer...

    Will We Do Business in the Winter Window?

    Will we do business in the Winter window?... I'm now thinking it's much more likely than not. Our team seems to be just slightly off - both defensively and offensively - who might improve us in the Winter window long term - I'm not sure. But Pep is meticulous - if anyone can substantially...

    Nolito - 2016/17 performances

    A great energy player - brings a lot to our side. But for God's sake - can he not get so easily wound up, making silly "head-butting/head-contact" retaliations so often. He's been red-carded once for this and has done the exact same thing several times in our side. He needs to eliminate this...

    Is it time to end One Minutes Applause for supporters who have passed.

    I'm not sure how to respond to this - a human life is far more valuable than a football game! Remembrance of past supporters - I'm in favor of this. Maybe a collective remembrance at one time at select games (or maybe just one game) during the year is better. Most fans not clapping - they...

    John Stones - 2016/17 performances

    Stones will likely come good - sometimes makes bizzre no-look passes backwards leading to goals - sometimes makes extremelhy riskly passes to teammates who are covered - but is more willing to hoof it/kick it out--of-bounds than just about any other of our defenders. Stones has the innate...

    City's New Badge - Do You Like It?

    Haha - I think you're right - I was way too hasty in posting images of the badges. Totally missed the sinking ship stuff. I've fixed the images now - and have confirmed that the new badge is correct based on my Cladio Bravo jersey.

    City's New Badge - Do You Like It?

    Yeah - got that too hastily off the web. I'm correcting the image now.

    City's New Badge - Do You Like It?

    Ah... thanks for your insight. I've only been a City fan since 2008 and did not appreciate the history.

    City's shots & goals: are we that bad?

    Pretty much my take - interesting stats, but stats alone don't tell the entire picture. New manager with a complete change of system - I'm very impressed and surprised at how well we're already doing. Going forward - our players will get better at the system and Pep will continue to bring in...

    Yaya Toure apologises

    I think that the fact that Yaya even bothered to apologize is a great sign - to me, it demonstrates that Yaya really wants to play. Best case scenario is that Yaya applies himself - gets into really great shape - and starts pressing. I don't think that's going to happen though. What I think...

    Sergio Aguero - 2016/17 performances

    Yup. And he's pretty much a good guy. Doesn't stir up trouble. And seems to take criticism on board. Sergio is here until he semi-retires back to Argentina I think - and while he's here, I think he'll be killing it for us.

    Pep Guardiola: The Evolution - book by Martí Perarnau.

    None whatsoever. But the book is about our manager. And I think many City fans would value learning more about him (I have enjoyed the first book so far and will get the 2nd book once it's available on Kindle).

    Pep Guardiola: The Evolution - book by Martí Perarnau.

    :-) I still like the Raiders - it's been years since I've even lived anywhere near Oakland, California though. Many, many, years - nonetheless my loyalty remains - if ever I watch American football - I'll be rooting for the Raiders. But now... I just find international football much more...

    Thanks! I'm having a blast supporting City - loving every minute of it!

    Pep Guardiola: The Evolution - book by Martí Perarnau.

    In the states various networks compete for all the games. Currently it's NBC - fortunately their announcers are really good for the most part and sometimes they just take the English commentary which is generally excellent. Game times depend - sometimes it's 4:00AM ranging to 8:00AM or maybe...

    Pep Guardiola: The Evolution - book by Martí Perarnau.

    Actually I didn't follow world football much. I was into American football - an Oakland Raider's fan - still sort of am. But we had the worst owner in all of sports - Al Davis just killed us. Year after year after year we sucked. I just sort of gave up watching the sport after about 25 years...

    Pep Guardiola: The Evolution - book by Martí Perarnau.

    From the USA - sorry. I've been a fan of City since Mancini just when he took over. I've been a football (in the states we call it "Soccer") player for much much longer. As a kid, I got into football at age 6 - I was put into goal for some reason. Later, I moved to fullback - our instruction...
