Ye youre right. Although i was thinking more at the top of english football. Trying to think back as to whether the Arsenal, Man United, Chelsea sides had similar runs.

I would wonder too, however 22 of the 28 goals in this run for Manchester City were in the cup. 17 came against Burton and Rotherham. It's hugely impression but the "top of English football" thing isn't really a thing. Edited January 27, 2019 by The_Rev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zatman Posted January 29, 2019 Author Share Posted January 29, 2019 I enjoyed Guardiola comment that City are being priced out of the market for players Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted January 29, 2019 Author Share Posted January 29, 2019 On another note another young City player is leaving to Schalke, so much for he was going to revolutionise the game in England and would develop youth players. Dont think one has made the breakthrough since he took over 2.5 seasons ago, he doesnt seem to rate the young lad Foden to start him in league 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 Both are linked, new business model, develop youngsters to sell at a huge profit to buy other youngsters who are more of a sure fired hit, I think sancho is the only one they will miss but in reality they have sterling and sane, Sancho isn't getting a lot of games, this kid they are selling to schalke even less, sell him, get the money in, the Spanish clubs have done it for years the player they were "priced out of" was frenkie de Jong, PSG said pretty much the same thing, in reality it's saving face because the player is always picking Barca out of those 3, they've said De Jong is getting £300k a week at Barca at city didn't want to disrupt their wage structure, which to be fair to city is **** mental if true Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dudevillaisnice Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 Phil Foden is just a poster boy for the City Academy. Pep has no intent of giving him meaningful game time. I think recently it was a cup game, they were 4-0 up with 20 minutes to go, he looked at his bench and got Foden ready to come on - pointless excerise. I'm actually glad the Bundesliga are looking at young english players; they can develop without the media circus here and actually get some competitive football in a good league. I can only hope more and more follow on. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would have made more sense to pick a club with a bigger catchment area and fanbase rather than one that's competing with the biggest club in the world to fill seats.

Wainy316 Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 It doesn't matter how good they are, they will always be a nothing club. Nobody even flinches when they win something. It's just a pile of meh. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
