There is some resale value in Grealish where with Kane their isnt. At the time Grealish was just 26but we paid the same for a 27 year old with nowhere near as many goals or assists?

Kane still being quoted at £80 million, not sure we would get half of that back.There is some resale value in Grealish where with Kane their isnt
We’ve been shite for months, but we’ve had very similar patches of form during Peps time here. Even if we finish this season below expectations, I’ll still have confidence he will change it up in the summer and go again. I’m looking at the bigger picture here, new midfielders and a winger coming in to change it up a bit. Bernardo, Gundo and Kev have all gone a bit stale in the middle of the park.You enjoyed that today then?
You thought that was a well motivated team?
You think that Pep managed the game well?
You are happy with his post-match interview?
We're awful at the moment. No amount of blue tinted specs are going to show otherwise.
The buck stops with Pep. Once doubt sets in players minds, it's a slippery slope. You can see it in Foden - he doesn't look at all happy, and De Bruyne has a face like a slapped arse, having to do two men's work every game.
He needs to turn this round quickly or he will lose the dressing room.
You're as good as your recent form. We've been shite since the World Cup and not exactly great before it.Wheb you say the final straw you sre bringing up the past, you do realize right? Or you have that kind of short temper on your day to day life too?
Poor players, they are amazing with their national teams, and it's when they play with City they sre not as good, ohh wait, none of our players were good at the WC either. Maaaybee, just maaayybee they are not in good form? Have you considered that? With no Haaland we would be llaying differently, so we don't know if we would struggle or not.
19/20 was worse thab this, and thanks to Pep tactical changes we won what we won the next 2 years. But please, if you know better or know of someone better, be our guest.
Of course Pep has done some tactical mistakes, but some of you...like I said, if people like you put up even 1% of that pressure in themselves, wewho knows where we would be
What’s the point? The game is finished, if he whinged about it he would be just laughed at. There’s nothing you can do about decisions like that and complaining in front of millions won’t change a thing. He mentioned it, made his point which was right and then moved on. I’m glad we’ve got Pep and not that goofy bin dipping ****.Should have gone a lot harder with his words over the offside decision.
call it for what is it, a disgraceful decision, question the constant fouling allowed, bring up previous issues we have had with Oliver inc that incredibly soft pen in the 6-3
Prioritising the CL for a farewell present? Are you on drugs or something?You're as good as your recent form. We've been shite since the World Cup and not exactly great before it.
We've been getting worse all season, imo probably due to prioritising the CL for a farewell present.
I can tolerate a poor season but I won't tolerate capitulation against that bunch of shite followed by the bullshit he spouted post match.
Put it this way... He'll have pissed off a lot more City fans than he'll have pleased today.
Don’t blame the board Spurs wanted over 100 million for a 29 year old.
but we paid the same for a 27 year old with nowhere near as many goals or assists?
Agree mate. i dont think hes lost the room or bored. We just dont have the effort and concentration needed for the grind of the prem this season. Hope we can lift it for the cups and go again refreshed next season.

I’m not excusing Pep here, he’s got players out of form and the overall style of play has become a bit of a bore. Foden who we all hoped to be our next talisman has dropped off a cliff. The whole of the attacking unit looks uninterested. Haaland doesn’t touch the ball, we miss his runs all the time.
I just think we all to need to calm down and appreciate what he’s done for City, four in five seasons. A patchy run of form over two months shouldn’t diminish everything he’s achieved so far.
But not the player Pep wanted for the teamWe would have offered 100m for Kane.
Our unofficial opening offer was something like 60m plus Jesus, but then Kane met Joe Lewis in the Bahamas and Lewis told him it would take at least 200m.
that ended the saga, and we got a better striker for 1/4 the fee they wanted.
