Phips.
And in fairness he may yet be proved right.
But if ever a youth player suits Pep’s style it’s him. My only worry is can he handle the physicality of hHe Prem.
But ever since seeing him in the U16’s he had stood out for me.

ESPN announcer: City are very good at trawling the youth leagues a finding a player whos contract is about to expire

Could not have framed that in a more negative and preditory way

It's ignoring the whole part where players choose where to sign their next contract. They are not sold like slaves

Alejandro Moreno spent the whole game trying to loan Foden out. And what the hell is a turnover? Twat

Thanks

sure. because we get 15m and more fans worldwide which equals more revenue which thusly allows us to buy players and pay wages.

cheers

Definitely looked more like an established 1st teamer than a youth player trying to impress tonight.

Thank goodness the club listened to those on here and didnt go overseas for a glamour preseason tour like the other big clubs.

Exposing our kids to a side like Bayern would be dangerous. No value in it whatsoever.

What a bunch of cunts the BBC are! Just had the sports segment on and showed Rags v Dippers, with a review of Maureen's comments, followed by Barca v Spurs, including penalties, and then an after thought of our impressive comeback with a results screen. Oh, they did mention the Mahrez injury though.

Rag/Dipper PR machine, just to get the clicks.

Wankers!
