Maybe we should have two sticky threads, 'we're crap' for when we lose two in a row and 'we can win the lot' for when we win a couple.

One particular fucktard seems to have fucked off lately. ..

Yes, the one that insulted our manager and wanted both him and the director of football sacked last week.

What a right cunt that lad must feel.

Was he actually a rag or just a really fucking thick cunt?

Are people trying to say he is less than absolute wank?what we have is a large phenomenally expensive squad of mainly gifted players and we should be running away with this league and playing fantasy football. We are doing neither but that is the goal of the owners and the directors. Anything less wont do, end of.


You're right. It's a total shambles given expectations. Sell, sell, sell, sell!!!

We have rarely had our best players fit for any length of time, and we are not running at top gear as a result. We have some transitional players now (i.e. Yaya) who have been key, but we are adapting to shifting from over the next season or so, but our other 3 central midfielders all put in effort on both ends, and will do us just fine if they can also stay fit.

Our manager has done well under the circumstances and transformed us post-Mancini to a fairly consistent attacking beast, but sure he nor City are not the absolute best yet. Other clubs/managers without the talent level of Barca/Bayern/Madrid (better than ours) tend to resort to clever tactics/team cohesion instead (Chelsea, Juve, Atletico/Klopp) with a structure that isn't necessarily about entertaining football, but about how to control/defeat/adapt to/frustrate opponents. We seek to be like the first 3 clubs, and are close, but not there yet. PSG is somewhat similar, but they are in a smaller league so it hurts them, and Arsenal is the only other similar club I see, but they are a notch behind us, even whilst suffering injuries to key players regularly.

We are a work in progress that is getting better and better, while also just having created the best academy facilities in the world, and having immense resources and smart business decisions that allow for the club to expand which also effects scouting as well as exposure.

We are top of the league, and believe we have good reason to believe we can remain there baring too many injuries to cope with.
