  1. These are all expensive signings, so again, why are we giving any excuse for this? Philips was never good enough, then why did pep sign him? Shouldn't this be part of why perhaps he is overrated? Those you said had attitude problem, so was research done on these players before making any transfer bids? Doku was doing great from the start, but hasn't really been the same lately. But ok, he was injured before so time will tell. Dias, you can blame injuries, or may be not who knows. But the narrative behind him being able to improve players is false.
  2. Grealish Ruben Dias - he was superb when he first came. Remember why Pep signed him? they were having a bit of a shit start and losing at (home?) to Leicester by some shit high score. Pep found a solution though, spend £50m on Dias and he did solve that problem. For me , he seems to have gone backwards for the last 2 seasons. Laporte - again quite underwhelming since he joined City Cancelo - great at first, prob fell out with Pep hence the swift departure? Doku - even he is less exciting (ok he only just came back from injury time will tell) Leory Sane - he was again exciting to be begin with, complete fell off towards the end of his City career Kalvin Phillips - i dont need to explain Probably have missed a few, but if i look at the positives, i would say, Stone, Walker are the two main one that I think has improved under him. I try not to include KDB, Silva and Rodri as they have just kept up with standard, not improved.
  3. I couldn't help but went for Pep. Spends billions on talented players, probably more players have gone backwards then those who held to their standard under his tenure. The narratives of him improving players is a complete myth. We will never find out how he would be like if there is no resource available. But my gut feel is that he would be similar to a Tony Adam, or an ex Liverpool player. He will ask league two standard players to play in unfamiliar positions, pinging 60 yard passes etc, and hope for that moment of magic. Not one that would be able to maximise output
  4. Clown face celebration that looks to have directed to the Sheff Utd fans. But looks like he does that sometimes anyway
  5. So punishing those who might have punched above their weight to get to the PL, but with a limited income stream so can't afford to buy a new 11 PL standard players? What do you want them to do?
  6. Not cool Harvertz that celebration was a bit too much
  7. If they walk off the pitch now that's a 0-5 forfeit right? Joking aside I do feel bad for them, but more angry we managed 4 PTS only from them
  8. Game over, still find a goal in him even he was pure shit all game
  9. Oops I apologies, well done pep, well done foden
  10. For what most would say the best tactical genius in Pep, so far is more from like the school of Stevie , just relying on that moment of magic
  11. What idiot would stop the momentum of your own team by throwing a baby blue flare into your own ground
  12. It's amazing Ten Hag has more booking this season than Maguire
  13. Foden useless word removed well done
  14. Foden would score that against the likes of Luton
  15. Ederson only makes worldie saves against us it seems. So **** inevitable
  16. Shame Jack is not playing, he usually plays well vs Man Red word removed
  17. Small section of boos at final whistle. kompany will probably be ok to stay at his job.
  18. Burnley is just so toothless and soft. That's them confirmed in championship I think
  19. Going down !! Shame for the greatest manager of all time in the Championship
  20. Having just calmed down after a few drinks last night and a good sleep, just thinking about it now, their first goal should have been ruled out too? Chong was grabbing on Emi when the ball was crossed in first; we had the same chalked off Vs sheff Utd even though it's after the third phrased of play? Although nothing against their second, I just don't think there was enough to suggest Moreno was obstructed which might have prevented Morris getting the end of it. I hope Chong repaid Michael Oliver last night if he hasn't already done so.
