City v AC Milan post match thread

[Stephen230]

I fear we will be slow out of the blocks again. We won’t be up to speed for a good while. Hopefully we can get a proper defence on the pitch before Wembley. The maroon kit looked good and should be our second kit.

It’s a bit of a myth that we start seasons slowly. At least as far as results go.

Even the year we lost the opening game at Tottenham, I don’t think we conceded another goal until about October.

This tour is purely a money maker and about growing the brand .. (not a bad thing by the way).. because the footballing benefits are zero

I’ve been over here nearly 10 years now, and still couldn’t believe how many blue shirts eeee there tonight.
Tons and tons of kids with OVO tops on - and they know all the players
Next generation stuff

I’ll be there Tuesday with the lad, Pep will get a tune out of the old piano for us I reckon ;)

Kalvin Phillips takes home 150 grand a week.

Let that sink in

I’d have to work at least 4 years to match that. An abysmal signing has to go down as one of the worst in the clubs history.

Big win that for Milan they are nowhere near the team they used to be they’ll struggle in champions league hope they end up in our group..

It’s a friendly for both sides. Doesn’t mean a thing.

It's great to see the talent we have in the youth.

Hamilton, McAtee, Susoho, Doyle, O'Rielly and of course Oscar Bobb all played very well.

sack pep on the tour to save our season

My biggest takeaway from the match, aside from what most of us already knew (Bobb’s your uncle), was that Callum Doyle looks incredibly assured, just does not get phased under pressure, and has a knack for doing exactly what he needs to do to defend well, especially one-on-one chances. Oh, and he is a unit.

It’s too bad that we don’t really need another CB at present, otherwise I would say he should stay with the senior squad this season.

If he was right footed, may have had more of a chance. Not that being left footed is bad

I'm guessing you never got to see Lee Bradbury or Buster Phillips or Pointy McMannaman or William Bony or the underwhelming sea of shit we have signed in history. Kalvin is nowhere near and I mean nowhere near one of our worst signings as a footballer.

He might be the poorest value from a monetary pov, however that is a different matter. It could be worse, we could have paid 85 million for Anthony. Lol.
