Honestly just seen that smug rat Neville in the tele any justice in the world these double standard rats will fail big time

 

[Onholiday(somemightsay)]

piss funny this . we've cost the rags millions . Fred, Sanchez, Slabhead and now an OAP. they've spunked some money there on shite. all because we've been linked .
hey rags ( i know you are there ) after Pep we are going for Pulis.
do it ,you know it makes sense .

And Mourinho, don't forget the knee-jerk reaction to employing Mourinho.

There only move in recent years is to look across at us and react..........

 

[Onholiday(somemightsay)]

i am sure now he will say some very offensive stuff about City, that he never though joining us which will run through media like fire...

"I chose my heart over money" and things like that and guess what most fans will eat that up.

As sure as night follows day.

Neil Ashton is stitching together a full day of interviews as we speak........

 

[Shirley]

Reckon he was always destined for the swamp, his agent just chancing his hand to see if we would throw silly money his way.

I hate that Fukin club….

 

[pfazz]

If ever proof were needed that that the Govan Pisscan was still running the show at the swamp then here it is laid bare.

 

[Onholiday(somemightsay)]

They've always been insufferable mate.
Just been lying low for a while,
that's all

Is the correct answer........

 

[LangleyBlue1970]

Very much being portrayed as a financial move this. Good to see.

How times change.

 

[dave_blue12]

Based on how the rags judge Pep if they don't win the PL & CL this season will be a failure.

But realistically they need to win a trophy otherwise their expenditure looks like a folly. I don't think they will with Ole at the wheel.

It's going to be interesting to see their wage bill that's for sure.

 

[Kippax77]

Is Klopp now going to call them out over Ronnie like he did us yesterday.
Goofy twat jumped the gun a little there didn't he?

 

[tommybooth]

Ole wanted and new bus and got a clapped out Ford Transit. Piss stain clinging onto the past.

 

[BigJoe#1]

I'll slag him off as much as anybody but make no mistake he automatically makes them very, very dangerous now.

The Premiership is not Seria A nor La Liga, very different.
He is nothing like the player he was, Miles and Miles away from it. I never wanted him anywhere near our club and if I could have chosen a club fir him to go to the rags would be number 1 top of the list He will destroy them. Him and Pogba in the same team.... are you serious? Fernandez's influence and development will shudder to a halt.

They don't seem capable of looking beyond the end of their noses. This is all my prayers answered in one delicious scoop.

BRING IT ON!

 

[doobyedoobye]

Has he added that much to their attack above and beyond Cavani? Maybe his leadership? It's interesting that the Juve faithful didn't seem to regret his departure that much..

 

[BigJoe#1]

I couldn’t disagree more… Massive opportunity to destabilise them and we blew it

Au contraire mon ami, au contraire

 

[feedmpenzaandhewillscore]

Poor Cavani he earned his extra year now he’s going to be sat on the bench to accommodate Ronaldo. They haven’t solved their problems have they? They need a creative attacking mid and someone who can sit and be disciplined.

The Glazers have short termed solved theirs though, keep the unwashed masses happy and buying the merchandise.

 

[Onholiday(somemightsay)]

But as you know, that will soon come back down, as it always does.

Where does this leave Greenwood and Cavani?

You already had an aging goal machine in the big Uruguayan, who I highly rate.

(can we loan him?)

I'd defo take Cavani on 50 percent salary for the season - still a class act........

 

[melrose40yarder]

Pisscan is still in charge.
Gargoyle is his media mouthpiece.
Be honest is there 1 player at scum central that would get in our 1st 11.
De gea or Eddie
Shaw or Zinchenko
Wank Bissaka or Walker
Slabhead or Stones
Lindelof or Dias

Fred or Rodri
Mctominay or Gundogan
Pogba or KDB

Martial or Sterling

They have so called strikers but they are not better than our options.
Bob Geldofs son.
Cavani
Cr7
Greenwood.
We still have Foden,Mahrez and Grealish to fit in.
Last time i looked it was about a team.
Let them carry on buying over the hill individuals.
We are miles ahead and until they realise a top class manager is needed this will continue.
Since they last won the league they have spunked a £billion let that sink in.

 

[Shirley]

Are we doing ‘sex pest’ top trumps?

*scans today’s newspapers*

I concede defeat.

As the song goes…..

and if you know your history….

You obviously don’t.

Grealish needs to be hitting the ground running for you lot also, he needs to finishing the season up there in the assist table and has to be as influential as the likes of de Bruyne and Bruno to be classed as a success. 100 million record buy needs to be making a big difference to a team surely.

 

[fulabeer]

He went from the antichrist to the messiah in four hours yesterday.
Over the hill to a supreme footballer. This from both the press and the rags.

I got a lot of stick over the last few days stating i thought it was a massive mistake if we signed him.
I cannot stand the bloke. And i would have never understood why we would abandon everything i think we stand for. We are almost the complete opposite to those fuckers on the outskirts of Manchester.

Make no mistake, even with his age, he is still quality. Having him at City would have improved us....temporarily.
And that's the thing.
Nothing ours owner has done so far has been short sighted. He is playing the long game, and rash decisions constantly come back to bite you on the arse.
You think they might have learnt after the Sanchez embarrassment. They are still paying for that mistake, and it has set them back years financially and sportingly.

Signing him causes multiple problems, but the main ones are.
Having to pay higher wages (possible signing on fee?) due to low purchase price. That then has a knock on effect when other players want more money.
He is blocking a place for a longer term player.
He is blocking a place for youth development.
And uniquely with them, he is blocking a place for another short term older player.

After the initial excitement from other players. they will soon realise he will be limiting their playing time.
There is also a big possibility that the premier league speed will show up any slow down in his play. He is ancient in prem terms these days. Questions were being asked about Kane's age ffs.

I see this as a Robin V situation. One season wonder, and then pay for it over the next ten years.
I would take them winning something this year if it means them winning nothing for the next ten!

Mendes played city like a fiddle

No he played the media like a fiddle. He was offered to us for 250k a week just so he could then go to the rags and demand more to stop it happening. The daft bastards then stump up 450k.
Everyone knew ronny was leaving Italy in May when all his cars were shipped out. PSG and Madrid said no thanks so who was left ? Answer, the rags. They could have offered him 200k a week as he had no other club to go to.
