I know people are right in saying we shouldn't' even click on the DM website as every click just gives them more income, but it really is blatant with the DM now, how can some 17 year old getting on the fringes of the rags first team squad possibly be the top story in World sport?

They might as well just rename themselves the Daily Manu and be done with it

It is utterly ridiculous and I was about to post it.
When we won 5-0 to go top of the league, the story was in 11th position on their website. On the day they went top of the league, the first 7 stories were all connected with it. Now, we have headlines about their youth players.

Crooks is a total moron. Grealish is 25, Maddison 24, and Mount 22. At 20 Foden is one of the brightest young stars in world football. What is the matter with these pundits. They dismissed Ya Ya Toure and David Silva when we signed them.

Completely agree but bizzarely I think this is also quite helpful in keeping Phil's warm feet on the ground.

The less hype in the media at the moment the better. Otherwise they will build him up so much as England's saviour just to set him up for a fall later. The British media like doing that unfortunately.

 

[give it to gordon]

Lol just read this about Foden on crooks team of the week..."is surrounded by better, more gifted players. How can he not flourish - he's already gifted." Basically saying that's why Foden isnt as good as mount, getlish etc lol. Foden's team mates are to go for him
Yet it wasnt long ago when the press/media want Foden to be loaded. out and kicked from pillar to post. So he says phil is flourish but his brilliant teams are holding him back lol. What is it with these old ex pros about wanting joung talent to go out on load ?

Why are my taxes paying this twats wages, he clearly knows next to fuck all. What teams has crooks managed to back up his views on Foden ?

Our press/media are truly shit.

Every time they praise one of our players there is always a but and throw in a negative.

I’d be quite happy if Southgate ignores him completely tbh.

The second paragraph is so incredibly patronising:

At the moment Foden, as was the case against Liverpool, puts the finishing touches to fine team performances, leaving the grown-ups such as Gundogan and Sterling and De Bruyne - when fit - to break the bow of the opposition. He's young and has time but he's not ready to take over from the adults just yet.

Apart from being wrong. Its disrespectful

Why is it in football that the old ex players think it's better to go out on load and get kicked to shit in lower leagues ?

In any other industry you want to learn from the best.

Yet football it is seemed as wrong if you are learning from the worlds best manager and some of the worlds best players. So now its Phil is going to be judged harder than Grealish because phil is in a better team . For fuck sake Phil go and sign for WBA than the press/media will love you lol. Well crooks and the press/media really good players play for really good teams ;)
How can that be wrong ? I really dont understand crooks or the press/media views. How many young players have the ex pros and press/media brought through ? None they know jack shit about bring kids through apart from throw them out on load !.
