When people are given jobs for reasons other than their ability, this tends to be the outcome, unfortunately.

Lucy Ward is just awful.

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.

next time you meet em DO mention the war

Hamburg fans with an affinity to the kraut rags?
Scum in other words - and racist scum too.

No idea but he’s a cnut that’s not in doubt..

I have said it before that preceding the question they should have to state their name and the rag they are working for. Anonymity is a cloak for shysters.

See in the BBC article on Haaland breaking the season scoring record that they manage to mention he had the fewest touches in the game for any starting player last night. As long as some of those touches end in the onion bag then who cares?

Was Shearer, Henry or Rooney ever critiqued on how few touches they had ? Jealousy is such an ugly trait as my nan used to say

Will be awaiting the BBC’s love letter articles as to why Rashford should be awarded player of the season in the coming weeks. You can set your watch to it.

Decided to watch the entire game with commentary in Arabic last night. BT were just fucking appalling. Total Bayern love-in. Almost expected to see lederhosen, bratwursts and steiners of beer. Like a 1970s-style bierkeller…an Oktoberfest in April. Twats.

Like most on here I watched the game on BT and didn’t worry myself by the commentators views but what did startle me was the after match talk with camel gob,lescott and Hargreaves. Wio was very complimentary on our team and obviously the other two.

Wake up babe, the new shit take from Miguel Delaney just dropped

Can we get a special round of applause for the Liverpool fan on Football365’s mailbox complaining that City have “a victim mentality”

That’s a Liverpool fan, for the avoidance of doubt

Get ready - in the next few days we will no doubt get -
Greatest CL comebacks in the 2nd Leg.
How Bayern can still win this tie.
How Real Madrid came back back from the Dead last year.
Peps Achilles heel in Europe.

From the BBC
“A number of accounts are tweeting that according to German publication Bild, the sought after midfielder has ruled out a move to either Manchester City, Chelsea and Paris St-Germain because he wants to play for a club with values like "passion, honour, and reputation", rather than money.”

If that’s true, it will be interesting to see where he finally ends up

I noticed that about wobble gob as well. Obviously had one too many cheeky keys during the game and forgot his brief.

I have already seen an article stating what Smith at Leicester needs to do to survive. By pure coincidence, Leicester's next game's at the Etihad! Clowns to a man.

If the writing truly shit takes on football doesn't work out, perhaps jackson could stick to the fiction.........on second thoughts......

The financial gulf? They had two players in Mane and Cancelo whom have been in the premier leagues team of the season the last couple of years sat on the bench. They have a very good team and we witnessed to quality sides going at it.

Of course it isn't true. It's a misquote of a misquote with a made up conclusion.

Ah yes, the famous "either .... and" grammatical construction.

Only the sixth richest club in World Football - they've had a huge competitive advantage for years due to their owners putting money in.

He really is a fool.

Ha ha, “if that’s true”?!!

I must say, it would be most unusual for the German equivalent of the Daily Star to print some made up bollocks purely in order to blow smoke up the arses of its favourite club’s supporters. Oh wait, hang on a mo…..

Same goes for the assortment of rags down at Media City
