You know twitter is mostly bollocks, so why get worked up about it then

Not worked up at all and dont go on twitter (dont have it) - like i said, just calling bullshit when i see it

This! ^

No sugar coating, just stark truths that some blinkered blues can't see through blue tinted specs.

Apart from the fact this supposedly obsession with being Barcelona lite hasn't hindered us over the last 8 years, it's actually seen us become the most successful team in the league.
There's valid points raised of course and understandable frustration going into the new season due to how last year ended and the lack of signings so far to rectify a problem position
This shite about blue tinted specs just because not everyone thinks we are crap and not winning anything this year is just that though, shite.
Its fucking laughable to be called blinkered just because you've not got a downer on the club.

will be a massive fuck Up on our behalf not getting a top class CB for the second year running! Really thought we would be on the ball this summer after last seasons shit show in defence

It is difficult to understand. We have an achilles heel. KK would fix that. But there is little evidence we are close to buying him.

We have a few days now to see if we are serious about winning the league next season and addressing what became a really big issue last season. it's the right sided defensive position (Garcia.Stones) that's the problem not the left, so I don't see Ake as a fix.

Last Summer the discussion was over Maguire. Was he good enough to plug the Kompany hole? We decided not. We still haven't filled the hole but there's no doubt in my mind that KK is good enough.

Given the time I now have genuine concern that we are serious about signing a 2nd central defender.

It's Sunday morning. Don't stress. You don't have to agree with me. Let me know if you want a hand removing those blinkers, pal; )

agreed mate! If we only do one more signing it HAS to be a world class right sided CB!

Saw this on facebook - supposedly quoting HRH:

Its not the quote about more signings Im directly interested in but it left me wondering what (If any) pre knowledge, involvement HRH has in any of this - I cant imagine he has any direct involvement in the choice of targets but is it discussed with him at any stage - not for his input on whether we should go for them or not but just as a conversation to say - this is what we need, this is what we are looking to spend?????

Can't even get his lad the latest shirt. Poor from HH that.

 

[Marvin]

It might just be that they believe/know that Napoli will crack and sell eventually. There's no one else in for KK and privately he has told Napoli that City is the club he wants to join.

I hope so but an awful lot rests on us doing this deal. Seems very high risk to leave it for very little benefit.

For someone who claims to hate social media you don't have spend a lot of time re-posting bollocks on here. You do have the option to just ignore it you know.
