Manchester city football is playing fantastic football.

And people said guardiola is overrated.  If you watch his adjustment and the way his team play you know that he is one of the best in the world 

The work of their two maestros in Silva and De Bruyne is brilliant. Add in width with Nolito and Sterling and its a thing of beauty.

Crazy how quickly Pep has molded this team. They're fantastic. Every single player in their XI is highly technical from front to back. Their attacking players are also all very direct.

Still so jealous and sad about De Bruyne. Just imagine him with Hazard and runners like Costa and Willian. Damn...

Pep is good, but for the money they spent and the squad he has, the jury is still out. They played just as good under Pellegrini against small teams.

I like you, Ryan but you couldn't be any more wrong about Guardiola. It's not just about how well his teams play, it's about how they press without the ball and how well they defend. Pellegrini could never coach that. 

The thing that scares me most about City is not their players, but Guardiola. Because he's such an incredible manager, he has the ability to go on these very long, sustained winning streaks. When that happens, it's important we stay with them unless they'll piss all over the league. They're going to win a LOT of PL games this year.

It's good we have Conte then who has the record for highest points in a 38 games league and has gone unbeaten a full season before. We'll keep up.

Tru. But we need to get busy in the transfer window. The board are not putting him on an equal footing to Guardiola in this regard.

Like I said the jury is still out mate, let's just agree to disagree. I'm not denying he is one of the top manager, maybe his methodology and philosophy is great but he also desperately needs top quality players to execute. At the end of the day, if he can coach a lesser team for example Conte's Italy and still make his stamp, I will be convinced. But I don't think we can witness it because he always coach top teams lol.

Aguero is a grade A cunt.

You reckon his every action on the field gets looked at and reviewed like Costa? He is no less dirty.

Bet you not a thing is done about that elbow in the face, and he continues on his merry way. If it was Costa, it'd be the only thing mentioned after a win, and he'd subsequently be banned for life, or at the very least close to it.

Of course not, I don't expect the fucking FA to give a shit about it. Still remember how he two footed stamped ferociously on Luiz? He's been doing this for ages this little shit. Costa is just a hot head and a stupid little kid sometimes but I truly believe he has zero intention to hurt opponents on purpose. Aguero on the other hand is just pure disgusting.

I didn't see the build up leading to that, but was it entirely unprovoked. Not that it matters, but I'm just curious. Anyone? 

Reid was just jumping to clear the ball with a header. Aguero was back against him and lift his elbow with speed and power like Thai boxing aiming Reid's head area, a blind can tell you it's intentional.
