135 minutes of football is hardly a good enough sample size. I remember when Barkley had that good spell of form after Villa beat Arsenal last season and there was a major outroar why we kept Mount and loaned out Barkley. Barkley did nothing of note after the Arsenal game whereas Mount scored against Liverpool, Porto, Real, and played the pass that won the European Cup.

It is strange because if Saul actually watched our midfielders they all lack something crucial. Kovacic and Kante with final third effectiveness and Jorginho defensive prowess. If Saul came back to form he'd be more complete out of all of them.

It'll get done, but knowing Marina she will try and negotiate lower to his market value. It's what she does. It's why we hardly ever buy a player that meets their market value or is under it, it's because the selling clubs know we have money.

We'd be paying over his "market value".

Much like his hamstring, he has that reoccurring ankle injury that needs to be managed carefully. Physios must not have seen any damaged muscle fibers, hence the call up.

This photo needs to trend immediately.

Brain dead.

As I stated a page back, Kante not finding Lukaku and Mount not finding Havertz was criminal. Hoping Tuchel rinses them with this footage as we could’ve been 2 or 3-0 before the break.

Just saw the replay of Mendy kicking the ball at Henderson after Salah’s PK. What an absolute Don. 💓

Add Kante and Havertz. Some of the ignored passes today were criminal. Genuinely could’ve been 2 or 3-0 before the break. Heads up though. Immense fight from the team.

Kante not finding Lukaku going to haunt us.

That’s on Me day. Not Alonso ffs.

Yup. Brain dead decision making from Kante and Lukaku to play passes where it literally would’ve been one on one with the keeper.

Looks we are looking to control the game vs sit back and counter.

No Werner…

They best not piss Marina off.

Kounde will replace Dave. Chalobah Silva.

Player himself probably wants a move. Average age of our 6 attacking wingers/midfielders is 23, so he probably sees no way in.

I'm personally looking forward to it. I rigorously started watching the premier league back in 2006 where Ronaldo was first entering his "prime", so to see him back will just be so nostalgic.

Zlatan scored 28 goals when he was 35 at United.

Offers more on the ball but in terms of influence I'd say they are on par. A midfield three of Lampard/Makelele/Kante would've been incredible.

T-markt is a load of nonsense. I don't buy into it and its all made up by random people. I was checking Drinkwater's market value from the time we bought him, and according to T-markt he was only worth 15 million after orchestrating Leicester to arguably the greatest upset in sports history.

The fact Ronaldo basically whored himself to City because of his insecurities towards Messi is hilarious.

One of their greatest ever players played for City.

Pretty good CV for a player of his quality.
