    City beat Fluminense and are crowned World Club Champions

    To quote Donald J Trump for... the first and last time .... "We're gonna win so much, you may even get tired of winning. And you'll say, 'Please, please. It's too much winning"

    Luton Town (A) - Sun 10th Dec, 14:00 | Pre-Match Thread

    Given we are in Luton today.... I will go for a British auto-industry metaphor..... This is like saying "I go for an Austin Allegro" when the choice is an Austin Allegro or a Morris Marina

    Joey Barton

    Maybe he is auditioning to be the next England's women's team manager? On a serious note I actually think he would make an expectational international manager especially somewhere away from the UK in a country he could be personally managed! South Korea...maybe somewhere in North Africa.

    I think the Phillips transfer and losing KDB has really magnified it, I was one of the people that gave it a 4 and honestly I would still rate it around there. As for Paqueta, I'm with you on that didn't see him adding much

    Are Gundogan, Laporte, Mahrez and Palmer missed at all?

    The simple fact is that we are weaker right now than at the end of last season, but we went off the boil before Christmas then, so is the end of last season a fair comparison. Its fair to say though we don't really look like treble winners and signing wise thus far we have had more misses than...

    Nations League Sotland women v England women.

    I don't really follow international or women's football, however I was shocked given as the Nations League is used for Olympic qualifying that any of the home nations could be drawn together, surely it wasn't hard to predict something like last night might be set up and the integrity of the...

    Surreal Moments at City Games

    Bellamy being sent off at Bolton when the referee adjudged him to have simulated in the box, when he was fouled. The thing that made that odd was his first yellow card was given to him at the end of the first half walking off the pitch and no one in the ground knew he had already been booked...

    PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

    We really don't know what has been done, I suspect what is holding this whole thing up is the legality of how the information was obtained, irrespective of any guilt.

    Benjamin Mendy leaves City | Launches “multi-million-pound” claim against club over unpaid wages (p118)

    As a employer this is the risk you take when you take pre-emptive action against someone that works for you, I would suspect as a great deal of a footballers contractual payments are made up of performance bonus payments, the fact he was contractually restricted from that income source makes for...

    Surely it makes it harder to offload him next summer and we will be committed to paying his salary for at least part of next year, likely all of the summer?

    Cancelo is not gone..... There is not even the option to buy so this time next year we will be going through this whole process. With regards depth I agree with you we aren't very deep, but depth is only a thing if the manager trusts the player to play, for some reason... and Pep sees the guy...

    How many games do you think Steffen, Phillips and Cancelo are going to play for the club? Between the 3 of them thats 11 years of contract.

    Assessment of our business this summer | Poll Added

    Kind of shocked so many people are overwhelmingly positive towards the window, we didn't permanently move on a number of players that are clearly not going to play, the Laporte fee was really disappointing and not being able to get a move for Cancelo with even an option to buy truly sucks and...

    Most ridiculous take from a rival fan?

    An Everton supporter that I know suggesting that "you could put money on them getting a top six finish this season" When I questioned that he said that by the end of the season FFP would have caught up with City... I would argue that FFP catching up with City still puts them in the bottom 3 and...

    It's Quiet 18 - Wanna ring the bell?

    For me we are weaker than last year, factoring losing KDB for 3/4 months, wouldn't give us more than a 5.5/6... But at the end of the day the club pays the people that conduct the transfers millions... and me nothing so I would trust them over me!

    “Guardiola’s tactics will never work in the Premier League”

    Well in fairness Alan Ball even had a t-shirt saying he was a football genius.... I bet Pep doesn't!

    City’s last penalty at Old Trafford

    Its funny how we selectively remember things.... The first game I ever went to was against Arsenal and for 30 plus years I was sure it ended 0-0.... but it ended 1-1 but I can't for the life of me remember the goals... we lost 4-1 to Liverpool on the weekend afterwards and I remember that...

    Media Discussion - 2023/24

    I think in the case of United, as the MEN found out they have a very big stick and are a great deal more powerful than we are. We aren't as powerful and also unpopular, its not a great combination!
