It's actually incredible how City continue to dodge tough opposition in the cups.

FIFA/UEFA trying to take the moral high ground. It's like seeing Hitler tell Stalin to stop sending people to the Gulags.

It is evident the club is run by businessmen vs football experts. Who ever they invest in, they will tell the manager they must play given the club wasted resources on them. It couldn't be more evident. It's only when our academy players are in the limelight do they realise something is actually there. And even then, it takes a threat from that player for the club to respond. They are not football people. That is why a director of football is an absolute must. Particularly one of Sarri/Zola's choosing. RLC does well at the world cup. RLC threatens to leave the club, gets more playing time. Get's interest from Bayern. CHO threatens to leave the club, will probably now get more playing time. Mind boggeling how certain players are still here when these players are responsible for why we have done so poorly in Europe over the years.

Who?

Won't change a thing unless he gets more game time than Willian and Pedro. As he should

I'd rather beat them in the final again.

So because he involuntarily killed someone, justifies him getting hurt? I'm confused

I'd like Ruben to get a run of games.

It was the same thing with Ivanovic under Mourinho. Could purposely score own goals yet will someone always get selected. Alonso is a limited footballer, so it isn't his fault to expect more from him with his obvious limitations. It isn't as if he isn't trying. Wishing for him to be injured when it's the manager who keeps picking him, is cruel. All at the same time ignoring what Alonso did for the club to begin with.

Ridiculous. So it's Alonso's fault he keeps getting selected?

Willian having the audacity to get angry with someone telling him he's shite.

The more I see Pedro, the more I wish he was left footed. In fact, we are desperately crying out for a left footed attacker.

Has Ampadu ever play as the holding midfielder under Sarri? Think he's only played CB or a RMF so far. I would much rather Sarri develop him into a ball playing CB, as I don't think Ampadu has the technical levels to be an elite midfielder.
