They don't *have to* try to win a quadruple every year, they could just play kids and reserves in the domestic cup competitions for example.

There has never been a team so dominate, even in the halcyon days of United and Fergie. This kind of domination of English football just isn't normal, so if Pep doesn't like the schedule, he can **** off. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I didn’t know better I’d be inclined to think that the people who administer the game these days are crooks. Thankfully I’m not cynical at all……………..

foreveryoung Posted April 22 Share Posted April 22 I liked how shearer put him straight, " why don't you just rotate more". He's got another half a billion worth of player on the bench, boo hoo to Pep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StefanAVFC Posted April 22 Share Posted April 22 How much did they spend on Matheus Nunes? It's Pep's decision only to buy him for a tonne of money, then give him 0 minutes in a tight schedule. word removed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The paqueta deal was the one that they wanted and when that fell through they panic bought Nunes but haven't used him at all. It's like the Kalvin Phillips signing, did pep really want either of them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s incessant, football has been like this since the 50s only the top flight has less teams in now. Why doesn’t he focus his ire on the upcoming UEFA expansion? He probably sees it as an opportunity to spend even more money and a justification to spend it. Loads of cash but no class I wouldn’t swap him for Unai or anyone else including the Colgate advert who read the same bumper book of excuses he got in his Christmas stocking from the PL a couple of years ago. As Villa manager Unai doesn’t get any Christmas presents from those in charge since 1992, he found a copy when he was at Arsenal but it was all in French so used it to level his office table, Arteta has searched high and low for it since he walked through the door and after last weekend’s game begged Unai to tell him where it was and had he seen the Spanish translation as he couldn’t read French even though he’d found Wenger’s original copy under a table leg but since taking it the table had gone very wonky……. although he could understand the diagrams but after a while he needed more help and Pep won’t tell him. Not even for £1.5 billion as he’s a purist that doesn’t care about money although he’s had offers from a bloke claiming to be from Liverpool but he couldn’t have been as he wore a blue shirt, another fella who asked did have a red shirt but wrong accent and a man from the FA told me they’d had problems in the past from his predecessor and they we’re working on sorting them out as well as the man in blue’s team but under no circumstances should I ever speak with anyone with a darker red shirt, like you’re wearing Unai, he said that your club has had the European Cup stolen more often than my club has ever won it, definitely not to be trusted with abything shiny, he also said that your team had lost the original FA Cup and think they have a plan to prevent your club from ever winning anything again but you’d made them very concerned recently and you must be stopped, I really tried but it was too difficult!

I don't think man city sign players in an attempt to weaken the opposition because their opposition is arsenal, Liverpool and maybe United and Chelsea too. Or at least not players like Nunes or Phillips. Edited April 22 by villa89 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are just as likely to take points off Liverpool, arsenal or whoever their title rivals are. Strange if they are signing a 14 year old from the US rather than just having their sister club in New York do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, this is very strange. In theory, NYCFC exists for precisely this reason. To tap into the domestic talent pool in the U.S. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
