Jamie Jackson going around blocking everyone that calls him out. I'm glad these weasels are showing themselves up for what they really are. I thought Ruben gave him the perfect answer in the press conference and he rubber stamped that with a clear point last night as well.

Dias - (7) Near faultless???

Ha, ha, ha... Twat.

Ruben clearly rattled him at the presser. What a f*cking cabbage.

He does what Garth Crooks does.

Writes something deliberately stupid so people share and talk about the article.

 

[tolmie's hairdoo]

no way he is paid anything remotely like that much

Haha, £300k a year?

He will be on £70k a year tops - even a sports ed would be lucky to be pushing £250k a year these days.

I know guys at The Sun on £30k a year and get a fancy digital editor title.

Those salaries don't exist, outside of for someone like Martin Samuel, who is closer to £700k a year after his move to the Times.

I was in Budapest a few weeks back and got talking to some Hamburg fans who weirdly had an affinity to Bayern Munich. They were giving it ‘how can you support City with Arab owners’, they seem to have short memories at Hamburg that they were sponsored by Emirates, apparently taking Arab sponsorship money is different to Arab owners in their eyes. Weirdos.

Fuck hamburg.

Bilds ratings are laughable to say the least

Not laughable, they are obviously doing it like school / uni in Germany, where you get a mark from 1 to 5 or 6, with 1 being the best. So Rodri has got the highest mark.

It's okay, Blues...Herbert in his piece today said the Etihad was quiet and he paid tribute to the small band of Bayern fans who made all the noise.

It's killing people like him.

To be fair, if he wasn't at the game that's how it sounded on BT Sport

As far as I can make out the lines about 'passion' etc, are not a misquote from Bild, it's just made up. But Bild does report that Bellingham doesn't want to go to City or Chelsea. (Doesn't mean it's true, obviously).

BVB: Real Madrid legt Schmerzgrenze für Dortmund-Superstar Jude Bellingham fest

Jetzt ist klar, wieviel Kohle Real Madrid für BVB-Superstar Jude Bellingham auf den Tisch legen will. Den Dortmundern winkt ein Riesen-Geschäft!

That’s a load of rubbish. Players don’t talk about “money clubs” and “soulless”. That’s for idiot fans. In any case I believe he wants to come to City and why wouldn’t he? We are the first choice club in Europe for all players now.

UK Broadcaster tinkering with the sound to make it sound like Bayern fans were making all the noise???

Well... I'm SHOCKED!!!

The Bild is not my German paper of choice, to say the least. I was just sharing the source material for anyone interested in the story about Bellingham, which I agree is bullshit.
