Txiki Begiristain to leave role at end of season

[Gingers Dad]

Pile on akanji? Not really. Hes just not the strongest and can be exposed. As he has been at CB . Prefer him on the right

Ok ‘zero end product’ for doku is taking it a bit literal. Hows ‘very little end product’?

The writing was on the wall last season for me. Past experience got us over the line in my opinion. Kovacic may have played 30 games but hes a 6/10 player.
My point is , compared to past squads .. he doesnt get a sniff

Have you read the Akanji thread in Player Performances?

Hopefully he will leave us a nice present rather than a turd under Hugo's desk

I think it’s got to be this court case what’s going on and if it is then we can probably accept that as it’s a massive battle we are having .

Pannik may well turn out to be our best signing.

When you look at the previous 4 summers, only Haaland, Alvarez and Gvardiol are decent signings, that’s a horrendous return when you look at money spent and factor in the players we got rid of. He admitted the summer of 2023 wasn’t great so you have to ask what caused the club to remain stagnant the summer after.

Christ, are some supporters that entitled now?

Entitled? That’s the word of the month on here. I want City to stay at the top and that’s ultimately what’s best for the club. Spouting entitled out doesn’t make you a bigger blue.

We all want it, expecting it is different. Did you expect no down years ever, did you think we’d win it ,5, 6 ,7 years on the spin?

Exactly right. You’d think some people would rather go back to the bad old days of Ball and Pearce just so they can bring out the gallows humour. I fucking hated us being shit and have no desire to see us fall from grace.

We’ve signed some great players in the past and I see no reason why fans shouldn’t expect the club to wish to remain at the highest level by aiming for the sort of signings that improve a title winning side.

Yes. Because of Pep, Khaldoon and the fact we seem to generate enough cash to at least compete with Real Madrid, Chelsea and Bayern for signings.

All I’m doing is calling out the poor decisions made, especially in the last two summers. That doesn’t mean I expect it every year. What I do expect is not to lose 5 games in a row with the players we have, so I’ll call out poor decisions.

That is pathetic , this is sport played by human and not a computer game
