was an early subscriber to the Athletic but not anymore, some of embarrassing examples of so called sports journalism are laughable.

Hardly surprising, when they were all recruited from the main stream British media

'Nunez in, Mane out: All part of Liverpool's methodical evolution'

Darwin Nunez in, Sadio Mane out: All part of Liverpool's methodical evolution

Liverpool signed Darwin Nunez on a six-year deal from Benfica for a club-record fee of £85m before agreeing the £35m sale of Sadio Mane to Bayern; the moves are part of the evolution of Jurgen Klopps team

www.skysports.com

What a fuckin pile of shite article by red tinted glasses wearing , scouse loving and partner of Sadio Mane.

That piece is just total propaganda. No attempt made at any scrutiny of why Mane is leaving for a smaller club in an inferior league at the height of his powers. Sky has become a laughing stock.

He inspired my question.

After fawning over Nunez to Liverpool all Week, there’s f*ck all to write about, so Desperate Dan, who wrote the article, comes up with this rehashed, and rehashed again, gem.

That’s right Dan, you f*cking Gimp! City have just signed Haaland on a 5 year contract and are going to sell him to Real Madrid after 2 years.(seasons)

I thought he was injury prone and that Madrid had dodged a bullet? Make your fucking mind up!!

Talksport this morning. Tony evans on talking about Liverpool. Anyway, waxing lyrical about Darwin coming and the squad evolving. Acknowledged that mane maybe left too early but it’s how the club treat over 30s.

The presenter then had a racist dig at city by saying the only way Liverpool will win the league is when the “oil” runs out followed by little chuckle. Banter innit!

Then followed up by telling the listeners that Haaland will probably succeed but might not. What he wanted to say was that he hopes Haaland fails spectacularly. Darwin will be a success but Erling is coming on huge wages and his agent fee is astronomical. Lot of pressure but none on the scousers new forward.

Oh they are hurting. Cunts.

Oil & spending huge amounts of money. Rinse and repeat. Not 1 Journalist is willing to acknowledge the progress made over the last 13 years on and off the pitch. Whitewashing our achievements.

How could he become the football editor of the Times
He's just a late middle aged scrote with child like attitudes. He reminds me of the Haribo ad with the the adult commuters who talk like children not just because of the child voices but more in the subject of what they say.

Good man, fuckers think they can’t spout whatever they want without any consequences.

An assortment of ageing never-weres and others who never even reached the level required to become has-beens.
They‘ve spent a sad life attacking success as a remedy for their own inability to achieve any themselves.
Sorry scribblers who will be quickly forgotten long before the achievements of this club are.

He is the only man that actually looks like an Identikit Picture.

 

[bluwes]

not many now i reckon mate, there was a bit of deluded following he had, but most of us blues ave seen his true colours revealed, you were ahead of the curve on that but most of our support knows the score with that “impartial journalist”

He blocked me ages ago on Twitter for calling him out on something or other. Mans a bellend

 

[jimmygrimblesboots]

Never heard of this Nunez geezer until last week , but according to the Dippers in the media he will prove a better signing than Haaland who is a player i have heard plenty about in the last few years.
Don't remember Bayern , Real ,Barca , Juventus all clamouring for the services of the little known Nunez , but they were all gutted when Haaland signed for us.
Just more piles of horsehit to keep the Dippers relevant in the media through the summer , the kid they signed from Fulham no doubt will be world class before pre-season , and the fact they have retained the services of a 40 year old"Jimmy" MIlner will comfirm the final piece of the jigsaw.
It's the hope that will kill them :)

 

[Prestwich_Blue]

I called him a **** on twitter once and I was beaten down by a load of arse licking City fans, I wonder how many of them have seen the light now?

If one of those was me, then I offer my apologies. He can be a nasty piece of work when he's behind his keyboard.

I'm surprised Ollie Holt hasn't tweeted that Nunez will be a better signing than Haaland ala Charlie Adam comparison to Aguero back in the day

The already rich hate it when others get rich too. Entitlement personified, and sadly some media idiots follow the flow. Read the media, and you would think Liverpool and Man Ure are England’s greatest, but look at the facts for the last decade.

Extract: “More widely, anti-Muslim racism is endemic in British society, with a new study finding that middle-class social groups are significantly more likely to admit to bigoted views about Islamic beliefs.”

Germalism sorry journalism Is a by product of society. Most report on Muslim matters with no knowledge other than to say they must be dodgy cuz they from the Middle East.The hacks need educated.

Now I don’t necessarily agree with this view on Britain myself but it gives food for thought
As to why MCFC is constantly under attack. Where does this hate of city come from?…

A perceived unfair advantage due to having a rich owner? Probably. Most successful clubs needed money to start their ascension. So that can’t be it.

Oil money? As noted in other posts, many premier league owners have gained wealth through oil and other natural resources.

Blood money? Again can’t be that. The majority of countries have been involved in unjustified wars and many innocent people lost their lives.

Commercial revenue? The red teams helped create the wealth in the premier league and want to keep it for themselves. Premier was created out of greed and now the super league.

I have not deeply researched the points above so feel free to pick them apart.

In summary, Only two colours seem to matter and that is white and green. Anyone who try’s to grab a share will be treated with sustain and destroyed using any means necessary. In this case the sports media.

I presume the relatively low fee they received for Mane was a bit of a quid pro quo for Thiago, which is fair enough I guess. Seeing the tabloids portray the fee as some kind of victory for Liverpool is a bit much though, if not unexpected.

I don't get it. Why do the tabloids feel the need to highlight the fee like some kind of trophy win?

It's quite ridiculous but pep was right, the media have their tongue in the tramps holiest of holes.
