Add in Pogbad Sanchez etc wages and then compare

 

[Silva_Spell]

No chance.

Haha. Are you on spice?

On a side note, Arteta spoke excellently at the press conference today. Couldn’t help but watch and hope he’s the guy to succeed Pep.

Otamendi is a slug
Stones is slow
Laporte is pretty quick
Kompany isn't as fast as he used to be but is still our fastest, as highlighted vs Aubameyang

Ours is overvalued by about 50m whereas both Utd's and Liverpool's are undervalued by about 30m each . Par for the course

Apologies source:
That is according to SmartBets, who calculated the transfer fees of each club’s 25-man squads.

By calculate don't you mean made up, PSG spend £220m & &166m on 2 players but have only spent £600m on whole squad, it's all bs.

 

[Bpughh]

Yes I do not belief these numbers.

 

[balotelli's back pocket]

Less than 5 hours to go, and this is my final prediction:

Ederson
Walker Stones Laporte Delph
Bernardo Fernandinho Silva
Sterling Aguero Sane

2 0 City, Aguero and Sterling

 

[BlueMoonz1977]

Ederson
Walker Stones Laporte Delph
Bernado Fernandinho Silva
Mahrez Aguero Sane

3-0 City


Come on City

 

[King KdB of Belgium]

We need a good win tonight, 3/4-0. That would set us up for the following Saturday's game at Cardiff.

 

[KCblue]

Ederson, Walker, Stones, Laporte, Delph, Fernandinho, Silva, Bernardo, Sterling, Sane, Jesus
Subs: Muric, Kompany, Otamendi, Gundogan, Foden, Mahrez, Aguero

2-0 City

The downside of having a supposed ''easy' group in CL is that very few of the games will be shown live in the US :(

Yep, I was sort of excited for the switch to Turner and then the details came out. 2.99 a match on the app isn't bad, buy I'm hoping my other "sources" come through.

 

[BoundedCascade]

Can't watch the game today because I have to do stuff for my wedding and can't record it because DAZN got the rights to the Champions League in Canada and I can't PVR it. Anyone know if the game will be available afterwards to watch? If anyone knows of a place I can watch it a PM would be greatly appreciated.

 

[Dave Ewing's Back 'eader]

We need to give 'em a good pasting, make up for this afternoon at The Academy.

 

[Mr Blue Moon]

Shirley you can't be serious...

I'm in the minority I know, but I genuinely have no great interest in the competition. Been to a few games, including away, and I just can't get into it. I want us to win every game we play, but I'd get more enjoyment out of putting 6 past Cardiff!
