Sorry, but I do. I don't really want to argue with anyone, my opinion is just that he's fucking terrible. Lol. Happy to be corrected. Bloke is woeful. You'll see. Doku, same. Tin hat on. Our business last summer was not unlike the Rodwell summer. Fucking shite.

Took my lad to his first game tonight. He's only 5 but I think it was a bit much for him, the light show and the vastness of the stadium frightened him a bit so he decided to sleep after 20 minutes so I had to cradle him the whole game. Little shit house.

First time I've seen josko in the flesh and I got a totally different feel for him. The boy has it, star quality just waiting to come out. A few errant passes but he's mustard and I beg our fans to be patient with him. Reminds me of stones when he was young and full of errors, but with added flair. He'll be the best in the world at some point.

Early doors Nunes made some brilliant driving runs but he just doesn't have *it*. He'll be at west ham at some point I feel. Likewise, kovacic just isn't good enough, but will make do as a squad player.

Bobb though. He's something else.

A good win without ever getting out of second gear and some much needed minutes for one or two before anfield.

That was Peter Parker, who also slated Foden on a regular basis - I don't hold that against him as I slate everyone on a regular basis :D

Talking of 'slating'........... Josko is fucking GREAT at giving the ball away on that wing......he gave the ball away after we dominated possession for 3 or 4 mins from kick off and it was him who gave it to them and they attacked..it happened a couple of times and it happens every time he plays.

This player should be nowhere near the team when we play the dippers.

Baffling that people are surprised that when a player is playing shit, fans will say he’s playing shit :lol:

Rodri was fuckin terrible when he joined us. And it wasn’t until about season 3 that he came good. Not even player is Rodri.

Here’s the Copenhagen managers reflections on playing City twice. They work fucking hard. Not just technical ability.

Did anyone catch the moving message from Trent relayed by TNT from his sick bed? The dippers poverty narrative genuinely breaks my heart, only a billion spent on that team. They are financially organic apparently - like bacteria and their trophies mean more than ours :lol: :lol:

There’s saying someone’s having a shit game and writing them off as hopeless. Gvardiol should certainly not be written off. I’d like to see him after a pre season although presumably he won’t get much of one because of the Euros.

On the subject of Rodri. Here was his last action of the day. A superb assist for Haaland’s goal.

Josko will be class in my opinion. He’s being played out of position which isn’t helping, but it seems like Pep is determined to force him into that LB slot for some weird reason.

You do realise he's only 21/22? First season playing out of position under Peps complex demands? I have a feeling Pep wants to develop him into some kind of hybrid player which will take considerable time to come together. Expects to see lots of fucks up along the way. He's naturally gifted on the ball, expect to see similar development to Stones game.

You'll eat your words when he comes good, I'm confident of that.

AGREE personally thought he had a decent game. Not the only player that gives away possession. When any of them lose it, the mistake usually more significant because we are so far up the pitch! I remember thinking Stones dropped loads of bollocks when he first played for us, and now everyone says hes brilliant

Everyone can see that Josko is not a lb but that Pep is persisting in playing him as one. My take is that Pep is trying to fast track him into the hybrid version whilst heis still young - it's the only fucking logical thing that fits?? Personally, I've no worries with this kid he will be massive for us in his time. As has been pointed out, our defensive line seems to be getting higher and misplaced passes lead, in the main, to very good chances for our opponents like last night - that's still a work in progress but our first choice 11 rarely give possession away when we are at it. Thats why we have that new badge on our shirt and we are not giving that up any time soon

He’s on my shit list till further notice ! - and as I say to my crowd of managerial misfits , make me eat my words ( they are still waiting 7 years on )

I still stick to the ‘He cannot be anywhere near the starting 11 this week ‘
