Eric Cantona says Pep Guardiola would be more 'logical' as manager
Kung Fu kid hates Mourinho's brand of boring football and wishes Pep was their manager!

Manchester City are starting to feel the love despite their money


While hidden in an article saying we're great to watch, I think this article pretty much confirms what many had said over the last few years - Ronay really disliked us and hoped we'd fail up to the point where he suddenly found our football entertaining this season.

I couldn't get past the clumsy grammar and poor punctuation of the first paragraph.

Sky have just done a comparison of Hudders(£50m) v City (£650m) , cost of the squad etc etc , they didnt even do that after they hammered the Rags (£400m worth of players on the pitch) surely likkle impoverished Yorkshire no hopers beating the self proclaimed biggest club in the world was worthy of a cost comparison after they stuffed them ? , Glad i dont give a bean to Murdochs empire, click baiting tw*ts.

Is this a positive article? As per advice on here. Need to understand if I am fuelling the click bait negative v positive

I actually like Barney's articles, he's been trying to be funny and many times he is. This is from Dippers - Rags game earlier in the season:

...Highlight No2. On a noisy, oddly balmy afternoon at Anfield, Romelu Lukaku played a role similar to that of Matt Damon in the film The Martian, a man entirely isolated in the harshest of environments, cut adrift on an alien red planet and reduced to foraging desperately.
Lukaku bullocked gamely from wing to wing throughout this stodgy, directionless 0-0 draw. With 40 minutes gone he found himself unexpected proximity to another grey United shirt. Readjusting with commendable speed to the shock of human company, the striker played a neat one-two with Anthony Martial and shot powerfully but a bit too close to the Liverpool keeper, Simon Mignolet.
Next up, the filler. Or in other words the rest of it, on an afternoon when a collection of talented, pacy, powerful United players spent most of the game crouched behind their guard in a 4-5‑green space-1 formation, eking out a neurotically cautious point against a Liverpool team that had not kept a clean sheet since August.

I find it amusing that we still see these price comparison team line ups. Everyone’s knows how much we’ve spent, it’s nothing new to anybody. A few years ago, people would have been interested with this sort of information, but I’m pretty sure no one gives a fuck now.

If you want to keep your good soul at peace, never, ever, read comments on any news story on any website on the internet. Don't even make the mistake of thinking a story is such good news that all the comments will be positive. They won't be.

The worst fucker is him ranting and raving about slavery,the soft twat.
Someone should ask him if he knows how many jobs over his decade has Sheikh Mansour been involved in around East Manchester,plus housing plus education.

It fills my heart with joy to read those comments.

Petro dollars is the only thing they can come up with. Googled it and there are an estimated 6000 products manufactured from oil. When these gobby fuckers stop using every single item on the list then they can talk.
