Tottenham are better than us.

I'm not here to defend my club. The club is doing all its speaking on the pitch right now so we don't have to.

I think more pundits would embrace city if they were more attacking. The fulham game was a good performance but all too often ur guys play like their scared of their opponents. Very strange with the talent on offer for u lot.

Would u guys like to see more exciting games or would u be happy to grind out results? Some say winning is all that matters but I like a style to it as well.

you're bemused by the fact that most City fans don't like you because we don't read into this Harry Redknapp lovefest the media have created.

I think its got a little bit more to it than the media lovefest for Redknapp.

As for gloating about Liverpool, they should join the queue that includes Blackpool.

I have a lot of respect for the way blackpool play actually. They give some bang for their buck

A.Johnson but not Silva? Whatever floats your boat.

What is it with fans of other clubs rating AJ higher than most blues while decrying many of our better players as overrated? That's some irony right there (not that I'm for one minute saying AJ is shite, but he's not the finished article and HAS clearly been overrated - or at least prematurely rated - by the press)

I think it must be because he is English and so the press have put out this view that he's one City player it's ''okay'' to like. Albeit with a widely taken-up option to lambast us at the same time for apparently not playing him enough, even though if he was a United or a to a certain extent Arsenal player it'd be ''genius Fergie/Wenger bedding him in slowly'' etc.

while Silva is good we have players in modric and kranjkar who can play such a role already. why would we want millions of pounds worth of waste of talent? (u guys wana buy bentley by any chance)

AJ is far from the finished article but he can play either side, has bags of pace and likes to get the ball in the box. Although he wouldn't make our first team especially with the form of bale and now lennon, and especially with the fact he is classed as homegrown talent, i would like to see him at spurs.

Obv Joe Hart is the dogs bollocks. He would piss all over gomes the useless feck of a clown.

You would take Shay Given, Aleksandar Kolarov, Vincent Kompany, Nigel de Jong, David Silva, James Milner and Mario Balotelli as well as the players you've already mention as well if you could, as anybody with a footballing brain knows they are all players that could get in your team with considerable ease. you will probably disagree and I can understand why with you not wanting to admit your squad is rather inferior to ours. Given is better than any keeper you've got. Kolarov is considerably better than Assou - Ekotto. Kompany is miles better than Kaboul or Bassong, while Gallas is past it. The rest of your defence are all huge crocks that no other club would touch with a barge pole - never get a full season out of them. De Jong possibly one of the best DM in the world and is considerably better than Palacios. Silva again is one of the best attacking midfielder's in the world and again you would go along way to find somebody who would tell you Modric is the better player. As for the rest of your midfield, well lets be completely honest you haven't got anybody of the calibre of James Milner have you ? I'm not going to compare Balotelli to anybody apart from saying he is arguably the best young forward in world football at just 20 years old, he has also scored double the amount of premier league goals in just four games, than the combined seventeen games of Crouch and Defoe who have managed just one goal between them.

Put it this way only Bale and Modric would get in our Squad.

WOW that was quite amusing. Nearly choked on a laugh such was the (lack of)) quality of the response. Ok lets get a few things sorted (clearly we'll disagree):

1. hart does piss all over gomes granted
2. I have a feeling kolarov will become better than BAE but he hasn't played enough to grant this yet
3. Your defence only do well as a result of 2 DM's being played most games such is the negativity of the tactics ur manager adopts.
4. Your DMs are better than ours...but we only use a DM if we run out of players (we have a fair few injured currently). Huddlestone has a better range of passing and a sweeter volley than any of ur players...true he has the turning circle of a tank but he can spray passes quicker than any of ur players can run
5. Silva has yet to prove his label of one of the top midfielders in the world. I find this laughable. Especially when spurs have players contributing far more to the output in goals and assists (Bale and VDV inparticularly)
6. Balotelli is a player i rate very much and has buckets of potential...but he also brings disruption and a lack of discipline. How his career goes could be vary varied and i wouldn't want a player like that at spurs for the simple fact he is a massive liability. Defoe would get the nod there for me. Again is tevex better than defoe? of course. Drogba, Torres and tevez are the best 3 in the prem althought this season i've enjoyed performances from carroll and elmander also.
7. James Milner...most over-rated player ever...but at least u got rid of Ireland.

I think thats all for now. I am having a party at the weekend...just out of curiosity...what are you drinking?

Spurs fan here. I rarely fraternize with opposing fans, just thought i would make an exception for this thread.


First off, Mr Manolo is a complete disgrace, he in no way represents the majority of the Spurs fanbase. Kind of hope he is a Arsenal fan in disguise.

The arrogant behaviour from both sets of supporters in this tread is just bewildering. If this thread represents the new generation of supporters then i would rather see Bolton finish 4th this season.


Bit OT. Is it really a sensible idea to sign 2-3 players in the winter window? The team is only just starting to gel, now you want to disrupt some promising combinations for a couple of expensive buys. Silva looks to be the pick of the summer signings so far, the rest still need time to adapt. Modric for example struggled in the epl for a good 18 months, Are ManCity fans willing to give all these recent arrivals the same amount of patience?

Hello mate, I can see where you're coming from and I for one only want one player if any come January. That would be a target man who actually does that role, which would allow Tevez, Silva and Milner to all link up better.

Just curious as to what other fans think. Much like the mars rover I'm struggling to find intelligent life thus far ;p

I've only read back 5 pages on this thread, but have a couple of questions:

Is there a record for the number of pages in a thread after 24 hours?

Is there a record for so much horseshit on one thread after 24 hours?

If so, then this thread must be near to breaking both.
