I’m not sure whether it’s positive or not but I’ve read two articles in the Times on my way to London regarding Manuel getting the WHU job and neither mentioned his former club was MCFC although they mentioned Malaga in both

Not sure what to make off that but, regardless of the reason, it is a very strange omission given what he achieved with us.

Any bad news story and they always say Former Manchester City player, manager etc.

TBH I’m beginning to think I live in an alternate reality to the one where I imagine I go and watch City with my family

Similar to a recent article on England players where they described Walker as ex Spurs player and Sterling as ex dipper, it's as though they purposely don't want to mention you know who.

And no coverage highlighting that in all competitions his team had scored more goals in the entire history of English football (and just one behind the all-time record for European leagues) The media spent most of their time denigrating him. This week Danny Murphy said he was a "strange choice" for West Ham. Manuel's managerial CV includes River Plate, Real Madrid, Villareal, and City! Perhaps the Hammers should have got pundits' choice Fat Sam back!

Murphy has been a bitter little sod this season,nothing we do is good enough,mp has proved himself at smaller teams and is a great fit for west ham,if only these pundits did some research instead of believing their own hype they would be worth listening to

When the England squad was announced, I read an article that told me Stones was an Everton player
