Who the fuck is sesco and why did they pay 75m for him?

Maybe George Weah tipped them the wink?

 

[KS55]

Could someone do a Monday Night Football tactical analysis of the defensive shape of them here?

[noseve]

Chelsea will beat them
Draw at Brentford
Win vs Sunderland
Hammered at Anfield
Dicked by Brighton
Win at Forest

Amorin wont be in charge for the Brighton game IMO

They're just stringing it out until Rangers pull the plug on Martin, then...

"Resurgent Reds swoop for Guardiola mentor Russell Martin!"

Pleeez let it be so

 

[surprisedbygrass]

But but but according to the stats they’ve massively improved this season. It’s almost like people have eyes and can see what’s in front of them? Just looking at stats in face value doesn’t always show the bigger picture. They are fucking rubbish

This .Every season there are talented teams grubbing around the relegation zone whose managers say they are better than the results indicate . We all know the spiel. It's a last ditch attempt to keep the spirits up like the band playing ragtime on the deck of the Titanic . Once the belief has gone and especially when the manager calls out players in public , the team has gone .

He's the upgrade on the Haaland wannabe that they paid £72m for. That sounds like a joke but the fact that it's factually accurate makes it even more hilarious.

So that's who they've bought.

 

[Vienna_70]

Imagine if they were relegated.

It would literally be the most glorious thing in the history of anything ever.

Nothing will beat 1974, and the Lawman’s back heel.

Except everything that City win, of course.

L, L then sacked. Rooney in charge for the Sunderland game.He gets sacked after beating Sunderland and getting hammered 9-0 by the Scousers. Giggs in charge by the Brighton game.

Giving it to Giggsy til the end of the season?

I've been asked by the supervisor at work half joking "can I stop mocking, abusing the utd fans" all 4 of them ducked work yesterday.
Soft arses

I can’t ever imagine doing that, even if City were humiliated, either by the rags or a lower league side in a cup game.

If Højlund is/was the 2020s version of Gary Birtles, is Sespit the modern day equivalent of Peter Davenport?

If I was your supervisor all four of them would be getting Disciplinaries the soft twats

Fuck that! It's your duty to turn up the heat and fry the wankers.

Do you work in a chippy?

If so, is there a bike that's been left outside?

Their next 6:

I reckon they might have 10 points at the end of this run, averaging a point a game, if they don't beat Sunderland they're in trouble.

Wonder if Mr interim will be there for the 2nd International Break, never mind the clocks going back!

 

[ROBSH34]

Said to my Utd supporting friends that the worse thing they have done in the last 2-3 years was to rid themselves of De Gea. I always thought he saved them 15-20 points a season. Without him they would have had a few more years out of Europe.

You'll catch a few young 'uns with that one!

 

[mancboy]

Got to love SSN's online take on finding excuses for them.

"Amorim and the United hierarchy feel they are losing out on the fine margins right now.

There are other mitigating circumstances too - the injuries to Mason Mount and Matheus Cunha are particularly damaging, especially because United's squad doesn't have the strength in depth of any of the other "Big Six" clubs right now."

This is for a club who have spent net £783million over the last 5 seasons and a staggering net £1.35BILLION over the last 10 seasons.

"It will take several transfer windows and clever recruitment before that is a reality. Mount and Cunha should both be back available soon."

How many bloody transfer windows do they need?

They had a 130m strikeforce on sunday but the loss of cunha and misfit mount is particularly damaging to them? The mental gymnastics that sly sports news go through to make excuses for them is incredible.

 

[Brightwell Bros.]

Their celebration of their transfer window as something only they could do in their position. They’ve spent upwards of £200 plus million on Premier League jobbers and a striker that looks worse than the person he was replacing in Hoijland. Not to mention signing a keeper from a league that is worse standard than the championship.

I heard some idiot rag in the beer garden before the season started that they could compete for the league with their new signings. I nearly spat my pint out in disbelief.

They get rid of Amorim and the circle of mediocrity keeps going. They’ve already got Sancho, Hoijland and Rashford out on loan, a new manager comes in and he will have to completely rebuild the squad and take a wrecking ball to it. Trouble is who would want the players they have? They only have one good player in Fernandes and he’s the wrong side of his career age wise. It’s death by a thousand cuts and will take another billion to fix, trouble is they need probably another three billion to build their stadium on top of what ever the council pays to move that freight terminal. They are in a right spot of bother.

All of this.

Plus, they're still overpaying for decent players who look better before and after they sign. Any genuine world class talent has at least us, Arsenal, Liverpool, Chelsea who can match their wages and are a more promising prospect for developing your career. I'd put Spurs and Newcastle ahead of them. They are not making any money off academy signings, and the best young talent in the area are coming to City. And no genuine, world class manager would look at them: they'll ruin your career. And now they've chopped and changed their system again.

He couldnt pass out from the back never mind saving shots its all about passing out from the back

 

[blue b4 the moon]

Is he 'in the clear now'?

I thought there was going to be a re-trial or is that the Greenwood fucker?
