Ortega is not a number 1 goalkeeper for a side wanting to win the PL and CL. He would not get in the dippers or Arsenal or Madrid or Bayern or Inter as a number 1.

If we can source a number 1 replacement, then I wouldn’t be unhappy if we sold Ederson

Grealish and Gundogan were two of the worst players for City, all the young lads played well and put in good accounts. Grealish still looked scared to play a pass more than five yards forward or take on a defender. Gundogan was trying to do what he used to do but his legs are slower than his brain now so it doesn't work.


I imagine Pep would have been delighted with Grealish yesterday. Helped maintain control and the pace of the game whilst getting a goal and two assists. Hard to see why anyone would be looking for negatives

Just take a look back to the start of this thread, or the one for Wet Spam. Positives are not part of the City fan culture.

Were you watching the same game PP? Did one good pass then fucked up about five times. Was in the background as a senior player with the kids outshining him

Just about 20 minutes then the highlights. He looked involved, not his usual self.

Ederson would have been dropped by all 4 teams that you mentioned the way hes been under performing this season.
THEY SAY SWEARING IS DUE TO A LIMITED VOCABULARY. I KNOW THOUSANDS OF WORDS, BUT I STILL PREFER "FUCK OFF" TO "GO AWAY"
