Hasn't he just. He can't fucking help himself.
Scroungey little fucking maggot that he is.
Knew all along what he was doing. Won two titles with City and behaves like scorned, pathetic woman.
Excuse my language :)
I was being a bit tongue in cheek to be fair, trying to lighten the mood.
Only rival fans go with the owner will leave,no blue says thatKaren 'gave yourself away'. Don' know what you mean. Explain.
Wtf does 2016 mean? Red rag to a bull is that, been watching city since 1963, the high press nonsense was the repeated reference on the pre match thread as to why we would lose. In the end we did not lose to high press.Klopp had nowhere near the resources we had and have added- It was a narrow defeat that at very best might have been 0-0. "The high press nonsense" you quote is what Pep aspires to . We have been patient since 2012 and if its 2020 before something clicks that's one hell of a gamble . Don't lecture me on patience Mrs 2016.
I don't think many are writing him off so much as saying they are disappointed so far. People have every right to question, based on what they have seen to date. Notwithstanding the excuse of transfer windows, it was almost impossible not to improve on last year's lacklustre stuff under a lassez-faire manager. Yet here we are at the halfway mark, 10 points behind the leaders and with the rags right up our arses. Both those teams are in transition, and their managers have been in place for the same time as Pep.
Moreover, netither they nor Klopp will stand still while we get our act into gear.
So, although I suspect most still have confidence in Pep over the long run - including myself - you should night be surprised that blind faith is being tinged with a few doubts.
Haven't read the thread but I'm assuming you're talking about Milner. I always got the impression he signed a pre contract with them or did something similar which pretty much made our contract discussion with him pointless...went for a fat signing fee etc etc
Aguero should have been on the benchIt was an ok performance. Highlighted our lack of cutting edge and directness in the final 3rd.
World class striker though he is, im not sure Aguero is suited to our system.. feel it requires a grafting playmaking striker and/or direct wingers. Muller/Griezmann/Tevez style.
Happy New Year mate but can't agree with what you are saying about Aguero. You've been having a go at him for a while - talk about turning on a legend!! Fuck me, he hardly scores at all!! Agree his finishing at times this season has not been good but yea, let's run him out of the club.I agree we weren't that bad but we weren't that good either. The first 30 minutes of the second half we were comfortably in control but we offered no threat. Yaya played facing his own goal much of the time, KDB was utterly wank, Fernandinho wasn't involved, Silva did what Silva does and pretended he was playing in a gentle training game instead of a top of the table clash.
Aguero can frankly fuck off for me. Shows no interest or positional awareness. In a game of few chances, he was offside whenever we built anything that looked promising. If he was needed in or around the 6-yard box he was outside the area and there was at least one opportunity where he should have been around the penalty spot but was on the edge of the 6-yard box. World class my arse. I'm sure he'll bully Burnley on Monday though.
You get everywhere. Happy New Year btw.
I haven't read the thread and doubt that I want to. I'm sure that I am out of step with a lot of people. I actually think you can see what Pep is trying to do take shape. Unfortunately, his players keep letting him down in decisive ways too frequently and results are worse than our overall performances. Today was a prime example, we restricted Liverpool to 5 shots at goal, 12 below their game average; whilst having almost twice as many shots as them and more than they allow on average but we allowed them to, sucker punch us and score with their only shot on target. They produced one bit of quality to score but we gifted them the ball cheaply and couldn't produce that necessary bit of quality at the other end despite our players' ability. People can blame the manager for all sorts of things but he set his team up well and was entitled to expect more from them.
