Why would anyone care in the slightest what dippers think, we know his value and one off game isn't changing that.

I don't care but maybe they do have a point, press him like they did and he might collapse again. Could happen against better teams in the CL.Why would anyone care in the slightest what dippers think, we know his value and one off game isn't changing that.

Well Fred will not solve that problem this CL season.I don't care but maybe they do have a point, press him like they did and he might collapse again. Could happen against better teams in the CL.

The dippers had 8 days rest prior to our game, that type of pressing is unsustainable without long periods of recovery. There is no way they other teams will be able to press like that once the Champs league kicks in with the amount of games being played.I don't care but maybe they do have a point, press him like they did and he might collapse again.

Not sure other foreign players have the minimal amount of rest between games as those in the UK.
Even with lesser schedules the better teams get to rest players as well as the individual technical and physical demands being less because of the quality of the players in other teams in their respective leagues, particularly in Spain, France (PSG beat a mid table side 8-0 last night) and the low countries. I don't really watch Italian football anymore but the usual suspects are running away with it again I think (Napoli & Juve). I suppose you could counter that by saying we've handed a couple of hidings out and are running away with the Premier League! I do think its generally accepted the day to day grind of the EPL is tougher than their counterparts.
Getting replacements in for key players is a must - I'd love to have Fred right now (although I thought Taison was the better player) but I fear we might have to wait until summer.

Isn’t that much of a shocker mate, was just responding to someone who said he had a poor game against Liverpool.Armaan in managing to bring up Liverpool FC in any topic shocker!

He was buried by the lpool fans . “The weak link” “Look how shit he is when actually put under pressure” read shit liken that online. He was incredibly poor.
Same kind of thick ****s who think City can't play if you press them & they have discovered a secret.
Two weeks ago, it was that City struggled if you don't press them & sit back instead.
Strange thing is, people have done both, City have beaten all of them & Fernandinho played in most of those games & was superb.

Pep will have him LB in no time...Hope we do sign him for now however, would really add to our team in the cups etc instead of someone like Yaya in CM (Sorry Yaya) when Dinho isn't fit to play.

So is he good and a like for like replacement/rotating partner for Dinho?
Shorter which might mean we'd have to change up how we deal with long balls but seems similar to Fern when we signed him.
