Manchester City could move for 26-year-old Sporting Lisbon and Sweden striker Viktor Gyokeres, if Barcelona are able to lure 24-year-old Norway forward Erling Haaland from Etihad Stadium. (Football 365)

On the BBC rumours page

Fucking idiots lol

I take it what they meant to say was World superstar, Ballon D’or contender, record breaking best striker in the world, 24 year old Erling Haaland.

It happens a lot more than people think and it's entirely their fault. The only reason I mentioned it was because it had a racial component to it which I thought was stupid. Atmospheres are getting tetchier when this stuff comes out, especially when the actual announcement of the APT challenge came out and there were a ton of stories claiming that City are very literally attempting to kill football.

If you're a passionate football fan and you were told that a club was in a blood war against the sport you love, then you'd probably be angry too. They aren't claiming we're challenging the legality of the rules, in the mind of numerous journalists and their readers, we're challenging the very purity of the game itself. It's a dangerous narrative.

The relationship with LFC is very toxic. Much worse than with United fans. I have been threatened and verbally abused many times, mostly on public transport. It happened three times when I went to Anfield last season. That’s why I’ll never go to there again. Liverpool is the worst fanbase no question.

I agree. And yes it’s easier said than done when some smug little armchair red shirt is spouting nonsense at you, on top of the constant barrage in all sections of the media

virtually all armchair redshirt " supporters " I have ever come across are truly smug, arrogant, and incredibly stupid which of course is the media's perfect target audience.

It helps to cover their own massive insecurities, stupidity and fear of reality. Their very own comfort blanket.

Manipulated beyond belief but too blind to see ...........

C'mon they're the most open-minded, fun loving and friendly supporters you could ever meet, surely ?

What about those famous nights under the Anfield floodlights ?

Genuinely funny and appreciative of everything good in football - whoever that be,

I think you’re getting him mixed up with Darwin Nunez.

You can only really talk about our owners and gay rights i terms of Manchester City. And as far as I’m aware, we are as gay friendly as any club anywhere in the World.
