He was injured but (with pain-killing injections?) played on at the back end of last season, mate.

Is this how scouse2 were scammed in Paris recently as well ?

How can some club in Catalonia refuse to pay their players wages and not get tried for FFP?

Still under treatment - he missed the Spain internationals because of the knee injury sustained against Wolves but played through to the end of the season

Jack’s bemusement on being informed he had a “fabulously symmetric face” creased me up.

what tf has Barcas plight got to do with tickets for the Charity Shield ?

In the uk you get all this BS about number of frequent visit miles at the club. The FA comes out with BS about being a sport for the populus and yet some sleazeball takes advantage of tickets that don't go to City or Scouse2 fans. Madrid ffs ! what does any firm in Madrid have to do with the sale of tickets in the UK ?

Nope. I was toying with the idea of recording it if on TV, but it ain't. I could probably just go round the media houses and record it on City TV, but it's not worth the grief - there'll only be about 25 subs in any case.

He explains the choice of number 7 in an interview on the City website. It’s in memory of his mum, who was born on the 7th. Don’t think we can complain about that.

Pep seems very pissed off at the missing players from the US tour.

See if they stay on the naughty step for long

He needs to be pissed off with the club for following $$$ knowing full well players couldn’t go.

If he wants a “proper” preseason then he needs to tell the club to forget about these friendlies abroad.

Haven't read too deep into it. Did they not meet the entry requirements because of something they haven't done? Maybe they weren't jabbed, I don't know?
