Isolating.

Has this been confirmed by Pep? because he was at one of the friendly matches with Ferran ..

Matterface saying Leicester punching above their weight made me smile

Made me call him a **** out loud

Grealish has big calf’s

Yeah where we had to break records whilst relying on the teams above us to trip themselves up. What we achieved was incredible, it can not be relied on or expected every season

What we did in 2018-2019 winning the last 14 matches to deny the Dippers(who were equally dominant) the title was still a far more incredible achievement than our comeback last season. We started slow but eventually found our rhythm and took control of the see saw race. The most important thing for the club is we get into a good run of wins, at least 10+ and will be favourite once again.

Where's Jesus ??

Ederson posted he's back in Manchester today so I assume the brazilian lads are getting back tmrw to training.

A week before the season starts after several weeks off is hardly rushing them back.Its also the reason we have two players for almost every position.

Don’t forget, many of them had no pre-season break last year, either, and they played about 20 games more than most teams they see on a weekly basis…not to mention playing with niggles from which they never get the chance to fully recover.

Should definitely be 4 weeks between end of competitive football and start of pre-season.

The money is turning the game into a 12 month sport, which is great for fans, but is killing the top international players.

 

[Corky]

On its own it is no big deal, but had three of these in a row.

Easy money though.

 

[blue aura]

If one thing lockdown has taught me. What an expensive day out going to the match is. I feel like I've been bummed good and proper.

 

[City Man]

Where's Jesus ??

It's not so bad that you have to call on divinity.

 

[mat]

More pissed with the commentary than City again

Leicester punching above their weight again

Another notch for Dick fucking Emery

Look at the line ups you fucking clowns

Look who was missing

 

[wilton st blue]

Fucking infuriating no on comforting Ake there. That wasn't his fault. It was the suicide ball from fucking rodri who prances about the pitch blaming everyone else

Correct pal

 

[ChicagoBlue]

Are you sure about that? 2019/20 must have been longer ago than I thought!

From BBC Sport:

Excluding 2019, when Manchester City appeared as Double winners, the FA Cup winners have won the Community Shield in six of the past seven campaigns, with the exception being Manchester City's 2-0 win over Chelsea in 2018.

 

[its grim up north]

Where's Jesus ??

Will be here at Christmas.

 

[Silva&Silva]

Well that was a bit shit....

 

[Kinki's Boots]

Made me call him a **** out loud

Agreed

 

[BlueBas]

Already obvious that Grealish is going to win fewer free kicks in a City shirt than he did in a Villa one!

 

[Chi-town blues]

Grealish has big calf’s

But jackie has bigger tits

 

[qshot989]

The season ended with us winning the hardest to win domestic league in world football but the club needed to win the Community Shield to have something to feel positive about???

A little pick me up would have been nice because we ended the season on a bum note losing the CL final in the way that we did even though we were PL champions but still doesn't matter in the grand scheme of things we didnt play too badly today still massively concerned if we dont buy a striker though.

Meant isolated, so hasn't trained.

Must be true cos Ferran was isolating today too!
