Maybe he just wants to go with Sarri to Chelsea? Why’s that so hard to believe? Yeah we’re an attractive club but we’re not the only option for players
Your right. More spefically for me it's the lack of physicality, in that DM, position, with the exception of fern.My only concern is a lack of physicality in the team. Liverpool and the Rags took advantage of our emphasis on smaller ,mobile, lightweight players.
More German comedy at this point.You still doing the doom and gloom lol
They did not physically out muscle us IMO. We battered them and only lost due to us not taking the chances we created.The rags for about 10 minutes when we lost all shape.
Sorry Karen tried a bit of humour its gone pear shapedYou still doing the doom and gloom lol
I think Fodens physical development at this time may count against him, besides he appears to thrive 20 to 30 yards further up the field.
Please tell me your not trying to compare kantes core strength to fodens. Please. One is a man the other is a boy. There are numerous reasons why no club in Europe would play a boy that age in that position. Physical development being one of them.Which might be true if he wasn't taller and heavier than Kante and still developing.
Highly probably.Well if he's that good we wouldn't have been looking to put a £50m signing in front of him to block his chances of ever playing for us, would we? Or perhaps more importantly, he'd not have joined our EDS because he'd have first team offers elsewhere.
More likely the kid is being looked at as someone who might develop into being capable of taking Fernandinho's squad place in 2 years.
Don't give a fuck personally. We were lied too. End of story.Why does everyone care so much about what we've briefed the press and how we play the PR game? Is there a PR points table I'm not aware of? We felt we had a deal and obviously to some extent we were quite close to one if we didn't have one. Things changed and the people changing it weren't City, so of course we are likely (still) the last to know about what is going on. What exactly do we gain by being the first to declare a deal dead and act like we never wanted the player? I totally get that we could have just said nothing but it feels like so many are somehow angry at the club for someone who isn't the club changing their mind.
I prefer Barca's and Madrid's method of beating an effective high press, which is pass around them with precision so they end up pressing thin air.Your right. More spefically for me it's the lack of physicality, in that DM, position, with the exception of fern.
I know your right it's my preference too. But now and then in addition to what you have suggested I prefer more robust qualities against certain teams. Ie/ Burnley away.I prefer Barca's and Madrid's method of beating an effective high press, which is pass around them with precision so they end up pressing thin air.
Why LB cover, we have Delph & MendyIf we're done for signings then surely Zinchenko stays? As there will be room in the squad for him and we could do with midfield/left back cover.
Zinchenko fell behind Mendy, Delph, Laporte and Danilo at left back.If we're done for signings then surely Zinchenko stays? As there will be room in the squad for him and we could do with midfield/left back cover.
We can't spend 50 million on a player for a couple of games a season,we have shown we don't need bruisers in the team to get to 100pts,the way we play we don't need someone like thatI know your right it's my preference too. But now and then in addition to what you have suggested I prefer more robust qualities against certain teams. Ie/ Burnley away.
