Nunes and McAtee should be nowhere near a City starting 11. 

I like Mcatee

Simialr to Chelsea really. Poor team with a smattering of expensive, match winning players.

[Joe_F]

No idea how Doku doesn't get more game time for City 

[nufc123]

Draw is not the end of the world, as I cant see City winning this.

[Displayname]

De Bruyne is on the decline, Rodri and Haaland is injured, Foden out of form. 

They were all their best players last season.

It’s not a great look but understandable and a warning to other clubs including ourselves.

 

 

 

42 the cheapest for a child is disgusting.

[AngelofTheFourth]

Both teams have players that could change the game. More so villa unfortunately.

Because he consistently does very little against good sides. He's good against the lesser sides though.

Absolutely rank. Given a few of our lot actually go into bat for this I doubt they’ll see it as a warning.

[Vaj]

Both teams have decent options on the bench, can see it being won there one way or the other. Just got a horrible feeling it will be Villa

He’s not a player that suits a tiki taka style, he would be fine in a fast breaking counter attack side as he thrives on running into space, he’s fucking awful against a low block

Shocking if so but can’t say I have seen a single example. 

[Vaj]

One of the many bullshit reasons for PSR. Some owners I’m sure wouldn’t care about increasing ticket prices to the levels they have if it wasn’t for the fact that they need to in order to boost spending.

They haven’t done it for PSR. They use PSR purely as an excuse to fleece the fans, because they can. Many buy it.

Agree that's rank, the issue is the next punter is waiting cash in hand and will pay over the odds.

 

I say that as someone who's done exactly that for fear of not getting a sniff at a ticket again 

[toon25]

How have Villa been able to do the business they have recently? The Grealish (and, in Jan), Duran  money?

I'm pretty sure everyone called this when he signed as well. Odd one for Pep to go after.

Exactly, they can jack the prices up because they can.

 

As usual, no one mentioning it's a spend issue that football has.

Matheus Nunes looks like he has zero belief in his ability 

[JUICE690]

Wish Tielemans become fat and lazy again.
