Yes he was

He was the face of our club, on and off the pitch

 

He was an embarrassment to the club the things he was doing off the pitch.

I'm glad he is gone. Never see any bad press about Buendia. He is also a far better player.

He was worth £100m to us. 

City didn't need him though. 

No he wasn't.

We look a much better team without him already

Just watching the match....

A couple of s*** passes from him so far.

Schadenfreude!

We scammed them so hard

No way is he a 100 M player

If's and but's but Liverpool only 5 points behind City if they win their games in hand.

Title race not over yet

Grealish starts Man City lose

I predict no goals. No assist. No chances created. No key passes.

I wouldn't be getting overly concerned about Newcastle surviving based on today, it's only their second win of the season and they were pretty much dreadful. On another day would have been a comfortable win for Leeds.

Burnley have 5 games in hand on Norwich.

Will be fascinating to see what actually happens with the table when games starts to catch up.

Only Spurs and Arsenal, and Arsenal can’t catch them.

Everyone was waxing lyrical about Arsenal only weeks ago and now they can't get past awful United?

People went way over the top with this Arsenal side.

How the f**k are Man U 4th? They are absolute garbage.

Because teams around them have games in hand

Moyes is always so cautious in the big games.

It's why he didn't survive at United

Mr. Hoofer.

Be a great signing for Dyche. 

Perfect fir for Burnley.

It isn't just fitness imo.

Not at the level he was in 2017.

He is still good at striking the ball and his passing is slick but we shouldn't have unrealistic expectations.

He isn't going to rip up the league. He is an improvement on Traore, and I'll take that for now.

Thought we got away with one.

Everton deserved at least a draw on balance of play.

But I'll gladly take that.

Also. Emi ahead of Grealish any day of the week.

If man City had offered me to trade Grealish for Buendia I would not do it. Not a chance.

Let me get this straight...

For the first part of the season, Burnley have been so shit that they're bottom of the table.  Then, they sell their best striker.  Because of these two things, everyone expects them to go down and there's absolutely no pressure so they're going to see an upturn in form?  

Dyche always manages to find a way out of it.

They have 5 games in hand on Norwich. Plenty of time for them to get it right.

Ferguson and Everton are just passion merchants.

They will tire themselves into the ground eventually. Won't be able to keep up this level of intensity for 90 minutes . No way.

Sold their best(?) striker and bottom of the table - you reckon they'll be playing free flowing, pressure-free football?

 

**** sake pal  

Everyone expect them to go down regardless so there won't be much pressure.

10 minutes ago, bobzy said:

Two of those teams (one with 5 games in hand on Norwich) average 0.6 points per game. Watford - who Norwich just beat - average 0.7 exactly (slightly less than Norwich’s 0.72).

All games in hand do is add pressure and congest the fixture list for teams who desperately need to win. I really don’t get why people think it’s a benefit. 

Burnley won't feel much pressure.

They are veterans at this stuff. They won't panic, and they will just start grinding out results eventually. Like they always do.

Newcastle, Norwich and Watford will go down me think.

If the option was having 0.7 points on average then I'd much rather have games in hand.

It is literally points on the board

Awful points on board in so case.

16 minutes ago, Zatman said:

Points on the board is better than games in hand

Is 16 points in 22 games really points on board ?

I reckon they'll be quite a bit behind once game starts catching up

I reckon Everton wins here largely because of that new manager bounce

20 minutes ago, Zatman said:

This is the first time in 52 Premier League games Norwich are out of the bottom 3

Teams below them have games in hand, so the current table doesn't tell the whole story.

16 points from 22 points is still a piss poor return and they shouldn't be anywhere near safety once games are starting to catch up.

Oh no. Smith against 10 men. 

Reckon Watford wins 3-2 now!
