It's clear Tonali wasn't asking for the move this summer but his club preferred to have the coin instead of his services, no point in being angry at the boyhood fan for leaving in those circumstances. I never wished anything good for players that used us as a stepping stone like Sissoko and Gini (Ashley-era and all that but still) but always cheered on players I liked that were forced out or naturally moved on to bigger things like Ayoze, HBA or now ASM. Same for Carroll after he left Liverpool because fuck Liverpool. In nearly all circumstances I want the best for players that leave us. At the end of the day they are people like me and you doing they best they can to support their families. I thought Gini was pea hearted when it mattered for us but always seemed a decent lad and happy he was utilised better at Liverpool and has had a good career. Never had any issues with Sissoko. He was a limited player but he never hid, never shirked responsibility and always seemed to try his best. No problem with players using us as stepping stones if they do their best. Only player I’ve genuinely not wanted to do well after leaving us is Michael Owen. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted August 18, 2023 Share Posted August 18, 2023 I’m neutral about most players who leave us TBH, especially the ones I don’t have any affection for (which is most of the Ashley era signings). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeyt Posted August 18, 2023 Share Posted August 18, 2023 (edited) I mean under Ashley we actively sold the club to players as a stepping stone club It was frustrating seeing Sissoko in the French press every week saying he wanted to leave but the club was sold to him as a stepping stone Edited August 18, 2023 by joeyt Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hot Since 1882 Posted August 19, 2023 Share Posted August 19, 2023 (edited) Gattuso but plays like Pirlo. @Milanista told us. Thought of Tonali, Joe and Bruno punching fuck out of teams fills my heart with joy. Edited August 19, 2023 by Hot Since 1882 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coffee_Johnny Posted August 19, 2023 Share Posted August 19, 2023 This is the big stage. World watching with bated breath. Doesn’t matter the relative importance of the game, let’s face it beyond the terminally optimistic amongst us, it’s a free hit; not many would blink an eye if we are well beaten. But putting himself toe to toe with players like Rodri, if he can stand out here, if he can make a difference, his transfer fee will look an absolute steal and his, and our, profile and reputation around the world will be immense.

Dr Jinx Posted August 19, 2023 Share Posted August 19, 2023 We were chasing shadows for large portions and there wasn’t much he could do. Hopefully coming off a bit early will keep him fresh, has to be starting games. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

City are just too good, they’ll bounce back next weekend though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The College Dropout Posted August 19, 2023 Share Posted August 19, 2023 Thought the midfield was constantly overrun which was largely tactical. There’s a lot of synergy the midfield 3 need to find. They were often very flat in possession offering no angles. They seemed a yard faster too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
