Ndombele (signed for Spurs)

Well. It fits the stereotype that black players are physical but stupid?

Were did the "he is not intelligent enough to play for City" come from? A prejudice?

Pretty sure Danny Mills wouldn't have been intelligent enough to play for Pep
 
Nothing wrong in calling out racism whether the poster intended it or not.

The media is quick to portray black players as lazy and stupid. There is nothing to suggest that he is not intelligent enough to play for City. So the poster saying this perpetuate a stereotype. Intended or not

Why? Is it because he is black?

Ferny is black you bellend!! He was obviously talking about football intelligence which you chose to ignore. I don't agree with him in his assumption, but your a dick for trying to bring race into the conversation.

you have assumed the user in question is a certain race/ethnicity, and accused that user of racism by using a negative stereotype that white people think black people are less intelligent. It's a lazy, negative stereotype thrown about and thus the only comment here that is racist is yours.

Still waiting for the apology.
 
Nothing racist in what was said. Out of order to play that card.

But the original claim was wrong, nevertheless. One of the qualities that Ndombele is most admired for is his footballing intelligence. Guardiola's preference for Rodri will simply have been his style of play being a better fit for City than Ndombele's.

There is something wrong in insinuating somebody has said something racist when they clearly haven't. It's a cúnts trick.

It's wrong to play the race card when you know the poster wasn't alluding to that. We all know how the media portray black players, that doesn't mean posters on here do the same.

There is plenty of evidence that Danny Mills is not intelligent enough to play for Pep. There is no evidence that to suggest that Ndombele is not intelligent enough for City. In fact the evidence is that he is very intelligent considering he almost single handedly overran your midfield.

So that is why I questioned the motivation to say he is not intelligent enough for City. Perhaps it was a lazy post. But it felt questionable.

He overran our midfield but it was still evidence that with regards to reading the game, he had nothing on fernandinho Gundogan, David silva. Ndombele is not intelligent enough to play as a defensive midfielder for us, just like Kante isn't, just like Torreira isn't, just like Winks isn't. Nothing to do with race.

Stop fucking digging. You're wrong. You're not calling out racism. You're calling out someone as a racist.

Ah, well this is where you're going wrong....

Ndombele isn't a defensive midfielder. He is a box to box midfielder. If anything, it is his creative and transitional / attacking abilities that are most highly prized. Fernandinho isn't good enough to do what he does any more than he is good enough to do what Fernandinho does.

Have you never heard the saying " Football intelligence" nothing to do with skin colour, if this needs explaining why the fuck are you posting on another clubs forum.

But that's the point. We're buying a defensive midfielder. Ndombele isn't intelligent enough to play that role in our team. Therefore, it's completely fair to say he isn't intelligent enough, because the only way we would sign him is as a defensive midfielder.
