Im not sure I’ll bother with membership next season

Manchester City vs. Newcastle United: 15/02/25 @ 15:00 (No UK TV)

Our record there is appalling but our midfield and attack can really hurt them. We probably won’t have a better chance to win there. I just hope Botman is back. -
Probably watch at home so I can concentrate properly
-
I can actually see DCL coming in
-
We might not get a better chance
-
So what’s that, Liverpool, Arsenal, Chelsea all out and Spurs or Villa will go out today
-
I think if/when he leaves us it might well be to Real Madrid
-
I agree, Wilson’s time here is up at the end of the season but he’ll score some crucial goals between now and end of the season if he stays fit . A player like Mbuemo makes sense because even though he’d cost a whack he can cover both positions so it’s kind of a 2 for 1. That said I’m guessing Mitchel probably has a cheaper version on the continent.

Isn’t the verdict on the 115 charges due in a month? I’m guessing it’ll be appealed (kicked down the road) but I wonder if there’s any chance they’ll be a points deduction? Their spending in Jan suggests probably not. -
No reason he can’t get 20 mins to so at the end of a match either RW or up front. His pace alone is enough to cause a team real worry.

Birmingham City 2-3 Newcastle United [FAC4] (08/02/25)
ExiledGeordie replied to Yorkie's topic in Football
Yes under the circumstances I thought that was a good win. They basically tried to kick us off the park second half and it was the classic febrile atmosphere. They look like the type of fans who’d be looking for trouble too, like orcs from Lord of the rings. -
Just having Tonali in the team makes me hopeful of beating Liverpool in the final and getting champions league.

They’re pretty brittle in the middle of the park and we’ve got the offensive threats to trouble them. -
Fast strong and direct and clearly likes ruffling a few feathers. Yes he’s a bit raw but he definitely causes problems and he’s got a decent turn on him in tight spaces. Looks like a decent option to get more minutes in games for say 20 mins or so as his pace and direct running is a real threat.
-
Yeah I thought so too, his availability gives us so many more options and if he stays fit I’m pretty confident he can help us get champions league.
-
You make it sound like he was a complete waste of space which is nonsense. He’s been out for months, what were you expecting plus he scored. He hasn’t proved he can stay fit but if he can he’ll play a major role from now til the end of the season. His goal yesterday was a classic poachers goal which we’ll need and he’s a great target man.

Loads of neutrals and indeed some Liverpool fans will write us off. I think Slot and the Liverpool players know with the big hitters we have that if we manage the occasion well they’re in for a proper game. I just hope we turn up unlike two years ago. Could be a classic final. Imagine a 4-3 in our favour
-
Id rather play Liverpool in many ways, we’ll be underdog and massively up for it as you say. We’d probably blow it against Spurs anyway 😂
-
That was the Trippier of old
-
There’s no denying it, a new stadium and the ability to put on concerts and events irrespective of the match day revenue would be huge. Id rather a Dortmund-esque stadium rather than Munich’s.
