Pep said no to a false nine day before yestrday , he will always play thor so get used to it

And when you do make a analysis or comment you get called a "Rag" or "dipper" the minute you make a criticism

Praise and criticism are both part of football and both can exist

Also because you are being "negative" doesn't also mean you don't support the team

I'll watch every game and support us to win but not gonna just smile and say oh well when this team of winners and millionaires get battered by teams inferior to us and who put in double the effort we are

Your choice.

Realistic praise and criticism I can agree with.

Over the top nonsense you can keep.

 

[Colin Bells Boots]

At no point did I say you were a happy clapper mate
My understanding of a happy clapper is someone who can see no wrong in anything city do ,and ,can see no wrong in any players ,
To me providing you praise when something good happens you are entitled to moan when something negative happens for balance .

I wasn't necessarily meaning me as I am not going to get upset about it.

It is the lack of balance from a number of posters which I disagree with, nothing more, nothing less.

It's unbelievable, looking back, just how good Aguero was. He was an absolute machine. The best City striker I have ever seen and it's not likely that I will ever change my mind again.

That said I don't think Haaland's all-round game is anywhere near as bad as people tend to believe. I think his passing and dribbling and positional play is pretty good to be honest. For me, his poor form at the moment is much more a symptom of our dysfunctional team.

At no point did Sergio ever remind me of Lee Bradbury …. Haaland has done on several occasions this season.

Where is that poll about who is the best player , sergio or thor ?

It will always be sergio , he would be making it happen right now , setting up his own goals if nobody is passing to him

Thor is young and has plenty of time to expand and mature his game

Ha ha do fuck off, the guy needs a supply he like the rest have just been unlucky sometimes, take the Spurs game they go in we are 3 up after 20 mins last season they’d have gone in. He’s 3 years in his contract I’d worry about an extension if by next summer we haven’t bolstered our squad to use him to the best if his ability.

They will never ever be the same player. No need to dig out Haaland.

Aguero literally famous for his power, low centre of gravity, bulldog like approach on and off the ball. Haaland a unit, target man, world class goalscorer.

 

[super_city_si]

A man who is very clearly not enjoying his football.

Hardly surprising.

 

[Keeper!]

The finest finisher in the game and we starve him of the ball.

FFS you could not make this shit up.

Play to his strengths, for a period Pep, just put your principles to the side, play ugly, play football that surprises the opposition.
