Magurie is an equal to Laporte and 9/10 people not City fans would pick Pogpa over Gundog.

I don’t agree that Magliar is as good as Laporte. Aymeric has been outstanding since the start of the season, whereas Slabhead was second best to John Stones, who can’t get into our starting lineup at present, in the recent internationals.

9/10 football fans don’t see Ilkay on as regular a basis as they see Haircut 100. Remember, non-City fans didn’t rate Gareth Barry, but we knew how good he was week in, week out.

Just because the rag-infested media tell you that rags are great players, it doesn’t mean they are.

People confront their worst fears by convincing themselves that it will happen.
Alternatively they could grow a pair.

People are equating big names with success but seem to forget that football is about all 11 players working together as a team.
It also helps when you've got a manager who didn't come free in a box of rice krispies.

You will catch a few with that. A stat padding midfielder over a striker who incidentally was England's best player at the Euros whereas Penandes barely showed up. Granted his form for us isn't great but you can't compare the two. Maguire over Stones is just laughable, a cultured ball player dominant centre half against a shit Mick McCarthy and your last one is the biggest joke. The only universe in which you are right is if you are counting social media likes. Please don't bother to reply to justify your wind up.

Your post is worth so much more than a like for the highlighted section alone.

We should sing "YOU'RE JUST A SHIT MICK MCCARTHY!" to Magliar at the Etihad derby.

I disagree with all your points.

That’s your right.

We'll leave it at that.

The media consensus is that they have bought better players and improved the quality of their squad , but it remains to be seen whether that translates into them playing better as a team and achieving better overall results as a consequence.

They have remained unbeaten away from home for a considerable number of games but their performances have often been mediocre and often benefiting from favourable decisions. Finishing 2nd last season wasn't a proper reflection of their real ability imo although I expect them to push harder this season.

The battle of ego's in the team might provide some real amusement and disharmony as the season goes along , and I will be absolutely delighted if it goes tits up in spectatcular fashion.

Trying to think of the things that Maguire excels at over Stones and came up blank.

Here goes
1, getting arrested in Greece
2, fuck all else

He can tell porkies too but, if John did that he'd be better at it than him anyway.
