Two fucking cockneys talking shite about City, not surprising really and we still have Matterface to come, that’s it volume off

If this was the Rags they’d have an all Rag panel on the punditry and commentary.

Strong line up.
Why risk seniour players and not play younger ones at this critical stage?

Fair play to this guy. Good self depreciating humour .

I can only assume that you had someone at Barrow to witness our 2-0 defeat and felt you needed a strongish side!

By the way, a very classy message from your owner and ceo the other day, nice one

Christ on a bike that’s nearly a stronger team v Swindon than the one we put out to play in the Champions League final.:-)

Seriously, let's take a look
Foden was born on may 2000, McAtee October 2002, so the equivalent season for the stage of his career for McAtee would be Foden's 19/20 season.

Phil Foden - Detailed stats

These are the detailed performance data of Manchester City player Phil Foden. The website contains a statistic about the performance data of the player.

www.transfermarkt.com

He played 90 minutes in almost every carabao cup game (including the final), played 800 minutes in the league, 250 in the CL and 230 in the FA cup.

In comparison, McAtee has 22 minutes of senior football.

McAtee is getting maybe 5% of the minutes foden was getting at his age, this isn't comparable. If he were getting foden minutes, that'd be something else.

Maybe the manager does not think he's good enough ?

The FA cup is more important :)

It’s funny how taking the commercial shilling has turned Mark Pougatch into a fucking whopper when it comes to us.
