Silly things friends have said about City to you

Probably;)
I was wondering why a parochial forum such as that, having threads about good food pubs, roads work and other minor crap in Stafford feels the need to discuss where City fans come from. They should be discussing the famous Stafford Strangers and Stoke City if they want to discuss football related stuff.
It's just a bloody Facebook whatever with the usual sad users.
 
Recent debate about best central midfielders in the prem era.

Rag said Yaya was only good for two seasons so shouldn’t make the shortlist. A fan of a championship club said he didn’t get the Yaya hype.

I reminded them he scored in the semi and final to win our first trophy in 35 years in 2011, scored twice in the penultimate game in May 2012 and got the assist for the first goal against QPR to win our first title for 44 years, scored in the league cup final with a worldie and scored 21 goals from a defensive central mid position in 2014 to win us the league and was still one of our better players by 2015.

They said fair enough.
2014 Yaya is the best midfielder in premier league history (not a daft opinion but a factual one, this is mine)
 
Nobody has had a season as good as that and he was brilliant for the 3 years before too.
I think the only comparable player was Lampard who scored more goals one season, but when you consider Lampard played further forward (whilst Toure was a CDM) it changes the dynamic.

It would be like Rodri, Fred, Kante, Henderson etc going on to score 20+ goals (as well as controlling the tempo and pace of every single game he played in). It will never happen again.

Very true
 
Just stumbled across this on the "Stafford Forum". We're all going to become Newcastle fans apparently...
