  1. For a series with so many one off memorable characters Pat Mustard was up there as one of the best.
  2. Not sure Porto are the whipping boys of what is left. Think they have or at least had a great home record. Really don't care who we get but in terms of league want City to get Utd with extra time in 2nd leg.
  3. Well if you think role of parents hard to believe then the situation will resemble normality with one viewing of Abducted in Plain Sight. How do these predators identify the gullible families with children ripe for abuse ? I don't think it is off the cuff I believe it is well thought out strategy for grooming. Stripped back to basics their MOs are remarkably similar.
  4. Imagine if Jurgen was in charge of a national side ! I think semi retirement with Germany is his move after 10-15 seasons with us. Or the FA dick about for another ten years promoting English coaches while a truly golden generation (across all positions) slips through their fingers and solution staring at them from LFC dugout
  5. Here never thought. I would be in agreement with Chris Sutton the depths that a title challenge takes you to.
  6. Just remember this post prophetic Genuinely fancy us now had zero luck last 5 matches (plenty before mind) have to go for wins now suits us .
  7. Wonder what he is like going forward ? Defensively would be good cover for robbo and we will see in about 50 mins how good his engine is if this keeps up
  8. Not even that he is missing what is happening he is seeing it and waving his arms every time to say I can see fuck all. Well done to Bournemouth as poster says they are not trying however they doing what heir manager has set them up to do well done. Clyne ropey on sterlings side
  9. I usually take the ref bashing with a pinch of salt bit I can confidently say the ref in this man city match has given them every single decision Bournemouth haven't a hope no matter how they play. I will joint the ranks and say I have never seen a worse refereeing performance and we only 39 mins in
  10. Great attack minded manager ???? He had the best striker in the world in the form of his life in the team week in week out Christ I could have managed that team. In the premiership era I would have rated Suarez ahead of Ronaldo then Henry that's how good he was for that period of time I remember a snapshot of a defender looking at the ball on his foot. His head was tilted to left his shoulder was tilted to right hips moving slightly left and foot pushing ball to right the man was mesmeric and could not be defended. We should have hacked up with the number of goals we scored. I am still bitter over the gallant failure which had duck all to do with Gerard.
  11. Whatever you say big man puts in a shift well deserved
  12. I think we are better just one point ahead it is do or die time to keep our noses in front . With a cushion you start thinking could cope with draw here or loss there not now wins or nothing simple as. For starters if we have 7 points from utd Watford and Everton that will do. League winning form right there.
  13. Bluffer - landed on his feet again with lot of decent young players at his disposal.
  14. Serious subject . I pissing myself laughing.
  15. We are going to drop points at some stage . Perversely I would take a win here and a draw against Everton rather than other way around based on what Utd have to play for and what they could do to City. Fully understand no easy games even with sides battling relegation but the 3 points for a win versus 1 for a draw is such a big incentive for relegation threatened teams that they will play more open against us and I am confident we will pick them off. So really think a sneaky win on Sunday could be worth more to us in the grander scheme of how the season plays out.
  16. Think we leave well alone in Jan do nothing. Would want our transfer team to be working on Ryan sessegnon and Timo Werner deals for the summer. We need to hit the ground running next year and to be honest we have lucked out once again (probably bribed every despot in Africa and all the CAF executives as well *source GOT forum) by moving the AFCON this year to the summer time. Salah and Mane will need time off this summer before season starts. Get these two on 5 year contracts identify a right back as understudy to Trent or move Trent to midfield and buy a proven RB (noone springing to my mind) and that should be us covered nicely. Plan for the future now.
  17. Game was a flashback to what we already knew and a flash forward to what we might expect. Thankfully we bought Fabinho in summer if we are to lift title I suspect he will have a large part to play (whatever position). As mentioned in other thread kieta massive disappointment for me.
  18. As you say if Fabinho plays CB Kieta will be the key to beating this lot ball on the ground , driving from midfield short passes with front three. Not that crap we witnessed tonight but with Henderson injured he needs to step up.
  19. Sourness would have given Fernandinho and Kompany the message early doors last night did Henderson even get booked ? Not that going in hard is a pre requisite for a captain but it sets a tone he does not have it in his nature or demeanour to be a follow him through a brick wall type of leader. VVD has the stature class and experience to be the captain need to make the change now. As a player Henderson can do a job until Keïta and Fabinho are firing on all cylinders
  20. Start of dec was wondering how we were going to catch city and thinking we might have to win last nights match to be one point ahead 4 points to the good goal difference similar get in these two teams will go unbeaten to the end of the season it is all about avoiding draws think we need bit of extra firepower in jan as a safety net. Overall comfortable with our position
  21. Two good teams average game of football overall lacked a bit of luck must beat Brighton do not want to go on type of run city had over Christmas period
