Magnificent statement

They've not made my season ticket any cheaper! In fact, it's gone up fractionally as I've also taken one if those flexi-gold season tickets for my 6 year old grandson, so had to relocate back 4 rows in block 105...

They froze the season ticket prices and they had to do the match day ticket reduction with the North Stand expansion or it could have been embarrassing.

Great signings but we have been here before. He did fuck all with his January window signings despite our issues. I'll believe it when I see it. Very curious as to who now leaves our squad given the fact Pep says 25 is too many he has to slot in Simpson Pusey somewhere surely?

Marmoush was one of his January signings. Big part of our strong finish

Accepted Marmoush had a few games, he was the exception. I also thought he went through a spell when he could and should have started but didn't . He has proved though that he can play. Pep just fucks about at times with players, NEEDLESSLY in my opinion

Simpson Pusey is the least of his worries. We have brought 27 players to the CWC and left mcatee, kovacic and jack at home thats 30 senior pros not counting simpson pussey or any of the rest of them(like mikusa) or the new norweigan we are signing or bah who we signed in Jan.

Big clear out needed now.
derby day the scores were level,
then the goat was fed by neville,
silly boy should know for sure,
feed the goat and he will score!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

He had a look at SP, then dropped him and bought more CBs. He'll be moving on. Rumour is we want 25m plus for McAtee. If we get that, it will be one of the biggest muggings in history.

A clearout is needed so the incomers don't get to hear the outgoers bitching and moaning.

Get all to fall in line again.

City will not miss injury prone players like Ake, Stones and even Kovetic. Wont miss old man gündo or Jack

You thought that £40m was too much for Palmer..

I think we will get it easy esp if he has a good 21s tournament. He is captain of that team, ud be lucky to get any of them sub 20m. After the last win we got nearly that for trafford and he had never played higher than league one.

Sure, we’re signing exciting players. But what’s the point if he keeps playing them out of position? He does this constantly, and nothing so far suggests he’ll do things differently next season.
So, am I feeling cheerful? No — not even close.

Just think of the treble…..that’ll cheer you up :D

Then look at the season the rags have just had. 15th in the league with a -10 GD
If that doesn't crack a smile nothing will

Now I did a lot of moaning last year, but not once did I give up hope on my team, yet some on here was acting like utd fans, we have to win everything every year. Yes we was awful and I for one hated us moving the ball sidewards backwards and way to slow when going forward, but we have the greatest manager we have seen and with these new signing we could be better, oh I for 1 have been wanting this world club cup to come around, so let's see how it pans out b4 some get toxic once again. One last thought we are all city fans let's enjoy the ride because I know from years ago how bad we really was.

Absolutely no one said or acted like that. Not one poster.

People are allowed other opinions Steve. That's what the forum is for. People weren't happy with tactics, players slacking off, manager decisions. Absolutely no one said we should be winning everything every year.

I think this season will be massively different. We had no creativity - the new lads should provide that and Marmoush is bedded in. Hopefully Foden goes back to the Foden of old and Haaland is fed plenty.

I'm really excited for next season!

We didn't expect to win every game we expected a shot / excitement vs slow back and sideways


Anyway reason for my post - might watch england u21s
