  1. What message does it send to the squad when players are not being chosen on merit. Young has had a really good preseason, Anwar has be been mediocre.
  2. According to Transfermkt his contract ends Dec 2021, so doubt we will ever see him in our strip again.
  3. I feel we have the players for a top half finish. It's really up to Smith and his staff to get the tactics right.
  4. Agree with this. Also needs to start Young ahead of El Ghazi.
  5. Love how he crashes the goal. If he plays, he will bag a couple of goals simply from his movement.
  6. Didn't think the formation we played in the first half today worked.
  7. Came on here to write just that. Hopefully Smith has a ruthless streak in him.
  8. What formation did we play after the 60th minute? We were much better than with the 4-4-2 or 4-2-2-2 we played until then. Worry Watkins and Ings won't work
  9. I'm guessing he's been promised matches. See him rotating in and giving Konsa and Cash periodic rest. Might mean Guilbert is off.
  10. With Tuanzebe we now have the minimum we need. Any other signings will be a bonus.
  11. Feel the likes of Carney, JPB, J.Ramsey and Bogarde will be part of the first team for now and will go on loan in January if they fail to get adequate minutes
  12. Congratulations to Dougie. Hope it will boost his confidence. I watched a few of Brazil's matches and felt Douglas was very pedestrian and lacked any sort of cutting edge. He is still a longway from the form he was in during Project Restart.
  13. Will today's training session be streamed live? Rather watch us train than the Olympics.
  14. I cant see any of the teams behind us last season overtaking us. Everton looks to be taking a step back and feel West Ham and Leeds have not improved themselves too much. Top 8 is definitely achievable, then it depends how Spurs and Arsenal roll. Top 5 teams seems pretty much set.
  15. I'd like to see all first team players have numbers below 30.
  16. We have a top 6 frontline and at top 6 backline. We really should finish in the top-half of the table.
  17. How can a player with 1 year left on his contract cost 40M? I'm thinking more around 15M or so - and that's only because they know we have the money.
  18. Dortmund would have been in the ESL if German clubs were to have accepted the invite. Anyway, all their top players will leave for even bigger clubs. It's basically a food chain. Even the likes of Dortmund, Atletico, Arsenal and Spurs cannot hold on to their top talents anymore. It's a sad reality.
  19. It's his agents telling him that for him to be a global superstar and icon and maximize his brand he needs to be at a club like ManCity. Name one current day football icon at the peak of their career that is not at one of the ESL clubs or PSG/Bayern?
  20. I'm thinking there is an understanding that Jack can leave after his replacement(s) are secured (so Villa are not fleeced by selling clubs). The only other thing it could potentially be is that City and Villa have not agreed on the terms (transfer fee, installments, etc.) I was quite confident he would stay with us a few days back, but the fact that a new contract has yet to be announced leads me to believe that he is off.
  21. If it means him staying at the club, I could careless if this drags on until the end of the transfer window.
  22. This is the crucial year. If we don't get into Europe this season, no one will begrudge him leaving next summer.
