Its mostly been said already re: players moving on, but I will add that we will always have bedrock players, the likes of Dunk (who has been criminally underrated) and Gross (who has been a mainstay for years and has vastly returned his investment in kind). If anything the club legends should be...
It was just a frustrating match (could have been worse though, it was my birthday so I’ll take Brighton not losing at least) seems like a lot of the same problems and frankly I don’t blame the fans for being impatient. What was promising to be a fantastic season has been rudely interrupted.
Not...
Wasnt the whole point of VAR to try and reduce errors? It has objectively failed in that regard. With changes introduced maybe one day it will work itself out, but as it exists VAR frankly isnt fit for purpose. Absolutely shambolic decision that disallowed arguably a goal of the season contender...
I like our badge, but unfortunately quite a few other clubs seem to have had the same idea when it comes to design (i.e. revive an older circular badge design and give it a contemporary look) and its become a wider narrative of football clubs becoming more corporate and brand focused (even...
Just like Palace last season? Granted that match had a great equaliser, but being top of the league means nothing at this stage (contrary to what Arsenal want to believe)
This match will go two ways- either it will all go to total shit and Manure descends into chaos, like a tornado hitting a slurry, OR it will be an extremely underwhelming narrow win/draw. Obviously I want to grab the popcorn and see number 1 happen, but I think 2 is the more likely outcome.
Honestly it feels very open apart from first place, which seems almost nailed on to be City (despite the draw and the herculean effort from Newcastle yesterday, the combo between De Bruyne and Haaland is genuinely terrifying and seems to just carve aside defences). Across the rest of the board...
I dont see how it is moronic to be honest- Selling Bissouma was expected, Cucu was not ideal but manageable, Maupay is understandable, yet risky. To me, any first team player beyond that point is a red line. Selling Caicedo is too disruptive and would be a cynical bit of business considering our...
Like many on here I think problem is largely with VAR, personally I don't think it is effectively communicating what is going on. Maybe we should take a lesson from egg tossing here (both ours and the yank version)- open mics for tv viewers that taps into comms between referees and VAR room when...
Trossard. Though I think Mwepu and Caicedo could be up there at some point in the future.
I also think Sanchez is one of the league’s finest goalkeepers and a credit to the club to have had such an incredible talent come through our academy.
Interesting comment from Alex Scott calling out the clubs that turned down hosting stadiums when approached in 2018. Makes me all the more pleased that Brighton were one of the clubs that said yes.
I wonder what incremental increases City was offering? £32m? £35m? For Brighton to publicly call out City like that, it must have really been an insulting bid.
Insane is one word for it. I look forward to the fifty thousand youtube videos that will go into elaborate detail about every single problem that this concept has.
Think it is very likely to be the real thing (why would an official partner of the EPL like Panini put a fake kit on their stickers? Let alone what looks like a complete product).
Im not a fan of the piss dribble to be honest. Thankfully kits don't really matter in the broad scheme of things...
