Good post except for one thing “City weren’t hanging on in the end and Pep wasn’t worried” you guys had one tame effort shot on target in the whole game, you’re a bloody good side but you didn’t turn up at the Etihad.

For me EH has to learn how to dictate the tempo of a game, teach the players how to keep the ball and tire the opponent out. In the last 10 minutes where was the midfield protecting the back 4 ? But EH will learn from this and maybe he’s needs to be more animated on the touchline, as a neutral I like him though.

Great post, you’re not wrong with them being media darlings, there scumbag fans bottled, coined and bricked the Man City players coach on the way to Anfield for a QF Champions League tie in 2018 and they received fuck all condemnation from the media for doing it, it was that bad Pep and the players had to get replacement transport back to Manchester, this and other things is why I hate the cunts.

As an outsider looking in, I’m gutted for you’re manager and fan base but you cannot lose the game playing against 10 men, draw yes but lose no chance, especially at home.

Transfermarkt doesn’t really mean much though, it’s someone sat in a room and putting his own valuation on players, Chelsea have spent close to a billion pounds in 3 windows but Lukaku might be valued at only £30m in that table. Btw I hope you thrash these twats today, i hope Var is truthful because it seems to favour the red clubs.

Take it with a pinch of salt, Nick Harris wrote this pile of shite so that says it all really. The new rules may or may not apply to the PL. Theyve been in force since June and the article can’t confirm if any state funds come from the UAE. As for the commission investigation, the commission was asked by Harris and they gave a generic reply that they look into all situations where state aid may inflate markets. But the article boldly states however the commission may open an investigation. It’s just a shite article from Sportingcel and surprise surprise the Daily fucking Mail.

Been a City fan since 1984.

My deflection about it being a disgusting question. Dont know what it tells you, but I’m a married man with grown up daughters. Youre reply tells me a lot though.

It’s water off a ducks back mate.

Wtf type of question is that, disgusting

Me calling them “bin dippers” is nothing compared to the Harold Shipman song they sing about us mancs, I assure you.

Fair enough.

Sorry I meant to say Ake

So defensive, all because I have the gall to say there is pressure on Howe in his next game. We have discussed City to death on here, we just have to wait until the outcome now.

Not trolling mate, just saying the pressure is on Howe to get something from this fixture and everyone on here has either called me a troll, fuck off, let’s talk about how corrupt City is etc

Are you ok, why so defensive?

Fair enough I forgot you were down to 10 men so me saying schooled is abit harsh, but for me the pressure is on Howe to get a big result in this fixture.

I really hope you guys thrash the bin dippers this Sunday, however the denial in some posters on here, City had Stones, Dias, B Silva, KDB all out, we also played in sweltering Greece in a midweek cup final and we still controlled this game and you didn’t lay a glove on us. Can I say you’re game this Sunday is a big game for Eddie Howe without people getting on my back, for me he can’t afford another defeat against Liverpool like last season, when they schooled you at SJP.

No you and others were saying “we can spend what we want”. I pointed out we can’t because we need to sell before we can spend like Newcastle. Were going round in circles here, all the best for the new season. Im off for a pint .

Don’t think there is anything wrong with that Manxst.

You’re making the classic mistake of believing what you read. It will all come out and I have every confidence in our board that we’ve done nothing wrong.

City ability to spend has nothing to do with sponsorship deals, it has been governed by FFP like every other club, we have to sell before we can spend. The club are dealing with the allegations of FFP so I have faith in the board.

City have to adhere to FFP rules we must sell to spend, I don’t know where you think we’re different to Newcastle. Dont make the mistake of roping City in with Chelsea, we’ve never spent £900m in 3 transfer windows. Let me just say this, United and Liverpool have used dirty tricks in the past without them being exposed by the written press, so they make there own money, all squeaky clean and above board.

The irony in this post, Christ. You do understand City have been behind Newcastle getting new owners don’t you, when the likes of Utd, Liverpool, Arsenal etc were against it. If you were from Manchester you wouldn’t be saying they did there business organically, I guarantee it.

Maybe but Man Utd have spent close to £1.6 billion since Fergie retired in 2013 and that hasn’t resulted in a title win, why is it City spending has got us where we are but the same isn’t levelled at other clubs.
