It's Quiet thread 14 - 'do one' edition

You have a menacing underbelly or gods own city does ? :-)

Haha. I don't believe in God but he's welcome to Manchester if he thinks it's a decent place to live!

really hope we dont lose bernardo!!

Neymar is a party boy and that's why I could never see him ever playing at City.

Messi is perhaps at a stage at his life with a young family where he can reconcile just chilling with his family in the Cheshire burbs and playing X-Box with Sergio and Otamendi.

When you have the cash we have, I dare say his family could live in London and he can helicopter to City training each day.

As a Mancunian born and bred, I find my city a pretty shabby place with a menacing underbelly.

Yeah, and that’s just the trams!

Jesus, Angelino and Garcia for Messi, if that's remotely true, I have just changed my mind about this whole deal.

Get it done!

Are you having a laugh?

How is this good business?

Jesus is young, not even reached his prime yet and can offer us so much more than a 33 year old Messi.

If this is true we've fucked up, massively.

I wasn't doubting you TH , but Haaland seriously wanting to work with OGS .

Perhaps I am under-estimating the qualities of the smiling assasin

I see there are 2 sides to this argument so I thought I'd make a summary of the pros and cons.


+ Greatest player in history plays for Man City.
+ Scores 30 goals and gets 30 assists a season.
+ Plays the best football you're ever going to see.
+ Tends to make everyone around him play better.
+ Will probably make Pep stop doubting the side.
+ Brings in a ton of money.
+ Upsets millions of rival fans.


- People might be mean about us buying him.
- We don't know how much of someone's else's money it will cost.

Ah, but don’t you remember the 7-2 game against Southampton, when we were 6-1 up and he didn’t track back, making it 6-2 with 5 minutes to go? I know he scored the 7th but it doesn’t cover that scandal up......

Jesus does not do it for me, outstanding energy, brilliant at the high press, but as said, for me not a top class striker.

And most of his issues seem to be self doubt.

It's not as bad as watching your team mates sh1ting themselves as Keane walked off the pitch.

That day I was ashamed of our players.

I agree. Andy Morrison said similar and that would never have happened had he been on that pitch. In fact it could well have been carnage!

I wouldn’t imagine the pool of Norway’s football elite is that large tbh, so I guess it’s not a surprise that they are close in that sense.
