They are just unstoppable on their day, felt like they had an extra man everywhere The one thing that's quite nice is at this point Chelsea have had harder fixtures and the next 5 are really kind on paper. Saints/Norwich/Brentford/Newcastle/Burney. Whilst the other big teams are all playing each other at some point City have had Sours, Leicester, Chelsea away, plus Arsenal at home. We have Liverpool away next week. I was surprised at Chelsea yesterday, but not by City. When I seen the teams, I expected City to win. Chelsea just reverted to long balls and did not really offer much. It will be close this year, as I expect Chelsea and Liverpool to make small fry out of the lesser teams. United will be far too inconsistent. Their players are nowhere near as good as the media would have you believe and the manager is not good enough.

Now I can understand city being your local club and supporting them. But when you move areas like yourself supporting your local team. I have a friend that does the same, he is a boyhood Oldham fan, but when he lives in another area sports that team. Find it quite bizarre. I watch a lot of telford united and Rangers, due to where I live and family visits. I wouldn't say I support those teams though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pink_triangle Posted September 26, 2021 Report Share Posted September 26, 2021 (edited) Not sure why Fernandes feels the need to apologise for missing a penalty, people always have missed penalties and always will. This apologizing for mistakes/misses on social media seems to be creeping in to the game, I am not sure that is a good thing.

It was a tongue in cheek comment, to another Internet clown, who has probably turned into a human rights activist, because the team he supports no longer wins everything. I am a Manchester City fan. I supported them long before the takeover and if I live longer enough, will support them long after the current regime has gone. Now we have spoken long and hard on here regarding teams links to funny money. All the top teams have those links. Yet, it still only seems to be an issue with City. As for Taunton Town, I still want to see live football regularly. I will probably go to more away matches this season than ones at the Etihad. Not sure where you would want me to go down here. Would rather give my cash to Taunton that to Bristol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It couldn't have been better scripted after last years super league debacle that a debutant from a country that doesn't exist would beat the main architects. Anyway after claiming Real were on the verge of bankruptcy in April without the super league they still manged to pick up Camavinga and make a £170m bid for a player they can agree to sign on a free less than 6 months later. If they are intent on destroying themselves there isn't much else anyone can do. I'm still half expecting them to pick up both Mbappe and Haaland next summer.

Doing it the psg is the way forward, pick all these players up on free transfers with massive wages. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you buy any clothes from sweat shops in the far East? Do you buy petrol which originated from states who make profits made from the exploitation of human rights. If so, does that not make you feel a little sick? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DareToDibble Posted October 4, 2021 Report Share Posted October 4, 2021 City were all over us in the first half yesterday, amazed it was 0-0 at HT. Second half was great, really showcased how great both teams are. Mo Salah is absolutely unreal and we need to get a new contract sorted ASAP. The man is unbelievable.

rock the clock Posted October 4, 2021 Report Share Posted October 4, 2021 Yeah I really enjoyed yestedays game. Salah is in the form of his life and you feel that Liverpool would suffer massively without him And same as last week city are outstanding pretty much everywhere. People quite rightly talking about foden but Bernardo, rodri, cancelo all amazing atm. They're still the team to beat for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DareToDibble Posted October 4, 2021 Report Share Posted October 4, 2021 Yeah I think it's fair to say City are the team to beat, purely due to their strength in depth. I would argue starting XIs are fairly similar but once you go any deeper into the squad than that City are quite a way ahead. I wonder if after coming so close last year their attention might go more towards the Chapmions League towards the back end of the season. Although as mentioned, they have the squad to fight on both (all) fronts anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Nal Posted October 4, 2021 Report Share Posted October 4, 2021 If you pause when Salah receives the ball its mental to think he scored from there. Especially against City. A absolute worldie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
