He's got that big player thing of expecting a free kick every time he gets tackled

What a surprise that TAA is shit in midfield

Love Murphy saying how good the ref has been just as he's missed an obvious body check

As good as Trafford's last minute penalty save (plus the follow up save) in the U21 final?

Think the first team player he's referring to is Douglas Luiz, no?

Really looks like he stops on his run up

If this guy is best in class, then it does make you wonder about the standard of Directors of Football. He seems like an absolute clown.

I think it's likely most of the negotiation is around payment terms at this stage rather than the fee itself - how much of it is guaranteed and how much is performance/appearance related

very good with his feet, high starting position, good shot stopper, a bit flappy on crosses despite his height, and looks to be weak as piss

How many of these rules that Man City are now arguing against did they vote for?

Dubravka is absolute turd

A goalkeeper who can sweep and pass the ball well to start off play from the back is so important now - £35m for one who is still young is a very good investment and IMO could be the most important signing we make this summer. If we get the Georgian fella, Tosin and Kelly, plus a new winger/forward in I will be delighted. Dubravka, Karius, Dummet, Ritchie, Almiron to head out to make space in the 25

It's only worth something if you can build on it now or in the future though. Interesting concept though. Could we potentially build loads of club infrastructure which isn't included in FFP and then sell it to boost ouR FFP?

Theatre of wet dreams

Are they just ignoring the 'offside' goal because they are too busy wanking off Real?

What on earth is he flagging that for

Does seem unlikely when we are apparently unwilling sellers at 100m

Back to negative goal difference for Man Utd. Absolute shite

Not sure how one of the most dynamic, attractive footballing teams in the league are being made to look like a load of old shite by Crystal Palace. Ten Hag's right though, it is fun to watch.

It's a free kick for high boot anywhere else so should be a pen

Perhaps because had he been thrown in straight away it would have harmed his development more than being on the bench. Ultimately no-one other than the management team know why they have held him back, but I'm willing to give them the benefit of the doubt

If he doesn't do that weird FIFA glitch jump that never gets given

Needs a Bobby Robson 'you'll do for me, bonny lad' to complete the sleeve

This guy to Take Dummet's place in the squad and Kelly to replace Ritchie and I'll be delighted!
