Iron Mike’s lot with a 97th minute away winner. Up to 7th, two games in hand on the majority of teams above them - could be just two wins off the automatic spots.

Absolute freaks but a chunk of the Arsenal Twatter fraternity aren’t even British. Them and Man Utd have a massive amount of African plastics.

Genuinely don’t know whether you’re taking the piss playing heel, half cut, or just a dumbass.

Miley would have been eased in, subs appearances, maybe a Carabao or two. Instead the lad has been chucked in the deep end and has showed he can swim admirably. However, he’s struggling which what most youngsters don’t have which is 8/10 consistency. Foden struggled at the start of his career to show that. Man City though were able to nurture him through much more steadily. He’s now a first team squad fixture by merit but will never be able to be a Bruno. Yet. But he could be.

We can and will. The two clubs we’ve had the misfortune to play since we got the breather are Liverpool and Citeh who are toploaded with talent and will keen possession for 60+%. Other teams won’t and we’ll be able to have more control and do less pressing to save legs.

Some proper heads gone here. Treble winning side able to bring their £60m midfield lynchpin and highest assist creator in the top 5 European leagues in 2023 off the bench. A £230m defence with a £40m goalkeeper behind it. The best player in the world last season in £60m Rodri, £55m Doku, £40m Bernardo Silva, Foden and £30m Kovacic They didn’t bother bringing £200m of midfielders off the bench in Grealish, Nunes and Phillips, plus much vaunted youngsters like Rico Lewis and Sergi Gomez. Then a World Cup winning striker up front. Thats what 15 years of mega spending and the highest paid manager in the world gets you. Along with 115 charges for circumventing regulation to clamber your way to the holy grail of a Champions League win. No disgrace today and it shows the individual talents we have in places that can compete with the Liverpool, City and Arsenals of this world. However, the inability to sign 5 more of them due to the constraints imposed on us by rules designed ahead of a ladder pull up from the old money clubs means days like today, with our Karius, Gillespie, Dummett, Ritchie and Parkinson populated bench are going to happen time and again. City will win the league and this will be one of the three defining moments they show on Sky for years to come. However the story of our injury crocked squad will be lost in amongst the De Bruyne dick polishing.

Two weeks break, rested legs, work on the gap between midfield and defence. Howay into these cheeseboard munching, Pimms drinking Southerner soft shites.

Both him and Gordon have empty tanks after 65 mins due to their work rate. Not a criticism at all, this would be the point Wilson and Barnes tag in. Only they’re rarely available as a tandem. Injuries costing us the points, not Isak.

FFP isn’t broken at all:

Stand corrected but that isn’t withdrawing an objection, it’s other clubs having a similar vested interest. 12 lockstep shitehawks voted to try and shut the door on NUFC.

John Murray on BBC speaking eloquently on it, commenting that it’s a scandal clubs being forced to sell either their superstars or their home grown kids. Either is shit. Much like us, he said there has to be a middle ground between protecting and pulling the ladder up. Mark Chapman (Man Utd fan) as host then stealthily used the cover of another update to move past the topic just as it was getting tasty.

They didn’t stop the objection, they lost the vote by 1 club, predominantly because the ones who voted with us have multi club models that may eventually need a similar mechanism.

Same way they interviewed, vetted and selected Masters after rejecting the original candidate, the absolute fucking bent protectionist cunts:

Dharmesh Sheth and Kaveh Solhekol raging at their lack of air time. Romano left repeating the micro details of the same deal for 10 days. Jacques Talbot making up even more outlandish bullshit.

Shitbag club, shitbag president. Copy paste for Real Madrid. United in their loathsomeness.

Grim if that’s the type of player we’re looking at to take us to the “next level”. Would rather take a punt on someone from overseas for a fraction of the price than him.

Those highly altruistic Sinister Six clubs at it again - delaying agreement of new distribution to the 72 EFL deal because they’re pissed Amazon or Apple didn’t pay more for the PL tv rights. But they’re trying to help these clubs with FFP right? Right? https://x.com/kieranmaguire/status/1745975627277124080?s=46&t=ODCi93Jpx6PQfubREKUtbA

Really helpful to understand and why a winger would find this a real problem.

£60m for Burn, Anderson and the 5 months left on Lascelles’ contract, - sign me the fuck up to the crystal meth diet.

Without kicking off another debate on ‘should we have known’, Tonali’s circumstances have caused a fucking massive headache. He was ready and would have played a good chunk of the October - December fixture logjam. Tino has contributed progressively and when required. Barnes has been unlucky. Hall is the puzzler in the four deals. Could argue the Minteh money could have been used but what’s £6m and doing deals like him are key to building a City/Chelsea conveyor belt of FFP problem solvers alongside the academy.

I’d be surprised to see Willock back this season and am skeptical about Barnes playing more than a handful of games before discovering he needs surgery. Anderson has showed himself to be about as robust as bone china which is ironic given he never got injured in the rough and tumble of League 2 when on loan at Bristol Rovers.

A year ago, aye. Hasn’t played this season so can’t be screaming top bucks.

Think the physio department is getting hoyed under the bus for this.

Screams Javier Manquillo to me.
