John Stones

Now I do believe you're trolling.

You forget where we were before and after he missed seven league games. Ffs.

So yes, it could be argued he really WAS the difference. Especially in finishing top of the CL group with the last gasp goal and how that worked out with a run to the semis.

No, he was one player who came in & played well. We arguably had our best form before he arrived. But that wasn't his fault as he wasn't enough to change everything, nor would Stones be.

It's a team game & if we are going to succeed, we'll do it without Stones, or DeBruyne for that matter, should either get injured. They would be part of a team under a great manager.
 
Are you under the impression that Pep/Txiki always get it right when they sign players, defenders in particular ?

That appears to be the argument of you & many others. That it's stupid to even question it.

I think with the best manager finally at our club I think we'll get most of the decisions right so yes.

I can probably count on one hand the amount of signings Pep's got wrong in the past 8 years of his managerial career so in my eyes there's a pretty good chance he'll get most of his decisions right, especially when it comes to youngsters

I imagine/hope you are right, but he & Txiki have had plenty of players that aren't. Just because they look at signing someone, doesn't mean it can't be questioned.
 
No I don't and neither do you,don't start with me because your losing the battle with Kneville
I'm losing nothing with anyone. And I'm not 'starting' with you. I'm pointing out how wrong you clearly are. Read Pep Confidential. Educate yourself. Especially if you think Pep signs players off YouTube compilations. Same goes with Gabriel Jesus, I mean, you haven't watched him play, save for maybe a game last night, so Pep can't have watched him either.

Who do you think sanctioned Sterling and KDB last year? Why do you think KDB chose City as opposed to Bayern?
 
My point is we have seen him play,arguably more than Pep has,and although I'm not involved in players transfer fees as a job,50m for this lad is far far too expensive,from what we have seen,but to contradict myself slightly,this is what you have to pay I suppose for Englishmen.................oh but wait,didn't Arsenal just pay Bolton a few pence for a young English centre half..Rob Holding

Really?! Do you know ANYTHING about our new manager and his attention to detail?

Yup totally agree mate, the price is high but that's today's market unfortunately.

And holding's just a shit tosin so I wouldn't worry about it ;-)

Where were we before and after KDB's injury?
 
Where were we before he arrived ? Where did we finish ? Absolutely pointless nonsense.

You are dumbing down again & wasting time.
You said he didn't make the difference yet when he got injured our form fell apart and we dropped to 4th.

It's not pointless, it's addressing you saying that he didn't make the difference.
 
Soooo easy to wind up,your having a shocker this morning pal,you could always block me like Billy Shears
Oh, so you don't believe what you say and you're just on the wum?

Explains the ignorance I guess, I didn't think anyone could be so thick.
 
No I haven't,I'm interested in what happens on the pitch to be honest,Pelligrini didn't do a book,but won the league,I'm hoping the same happens here
Pep didn't do a book either.

Honestly, either read it or stop coming out with stupid comments about something you obviously know so little about.

And you say I'm having a shocker. Ha.

Look this is really fucking dull.

DeBruyne is a great player, one of the best. City were a better team for two years before he arrived. he didn't make 'the' fucking difference at all because it's not possible. It's a team game & City will be fucking great in the next few years, irrespective of whether we sign John Stones.
 
Oh, so you don't believe what you say and you're just on the wum?

Don't be personal,your showing a weakness there,but what you have to remember is that this is a forum,about opinions,and some may well differ from yours,but you don't seem to want to acknowledge that fact,you always want to be seen as what you say is always right,that's what reading books does for you I guess
