you realize this is insane right? you are basically saying id rather watch teams park the bus against us then play against a team that will actually give us a wide open game, thats ludicrous. I understand alot of the hate towards the champions league but you will never be able to get the best players in the world if you dont compete in it. I would rather watch us against barca, real, bayern, athletico and so on then watch us play Southampton for instance.

Diaz needs a loan imo. He won't get the minutes this season and has already been playing in the U23s
Foden on the other hand can still benefit from playing now and then with the U23s as he is yet to make that step.
Sounds like Foden will be involved and Diaz possibly depends on whether we can bring in M'Bappé or Sanchez
There's plenty of bus parkers in the CL and a lot of group stage games in particular are rather cagey boring affairs.you realize this is insane right? you are basically saying id rather watch teams park the bus against us then play against a team that will actually give us a wide open game, thats ludicrous.

Because I live quite a distance from Manchester the premier league will always be more important. I can see why the players and management want to win it and I am not averse to winning it myself.

Sanchez will bring goals.
I like diaz, but he's no comparison.

Of course we give a fuck about winning the champions league, who comes up with ludicrous bullshit like this !
me.
yesterday I spoke to the lad I go with. we never miss (he says he wont do Turkey but that's bollocks) and was discussing the draw due on the 24th. I said if we draw a couple of the "established" teams I'd still go but wont go to the game. to me its all about the crac. the games are so irrelevant its not true. great away days mind :)

Not saying he is a comparison mate just that that seems to be how City are apparently viewing itSanchez will bring goals.

I'm saying I'd rather watch a football match between two teams of blokes who are allowed to tackle each other than some weird, scripted dance, where European aristocrats are allowed to do whatever they want and act like children if you go near them. The CL is shite. It might appeal in Kuala Lumpur, but it has about as much to do with football as WWE has to do with Greco Roman wrestling.
I understand why the club is obsessed with it and the impact it could have on the top players, but I wouldn't care if English teams got banned from Europe again if it didn't mean that Silva etc wouldn't be with us.
