  1. They may not win every remaining game but it's hard to see them losing any either. They've got a piss easy run in. Which means we need a nearly flawless set of results ourselves to keep in front of them. We can probably only afford one slip up along the way.
  2. Bayern and Juventus, by virtue of being utterly dominant in their respective leagues, seem to always pull off transfers of top players for well under market value. Whenever a top German talent emerges Bayern are ready to pounce. Likewise with Italian players and Juve.
  3. Damn, that was quick. All the English journalists made it sound like City were going to play hardball and force Bayern to wait a year.
  4. Would be pretty funny if United don't get Sancho at this point when they have essentially zero competition for his signature this summer. Their fans may hurt themselves because they have all just assumed it was a formality for months. If he stays at Dortmund for another year there will be loads of clubs after him (maybe even ourselves) and United won't have a free run at him again. Spending £100m+ on a single player right now whose name isn't M'bappe or Neymar is ridiculous, though, so can't blame United if this report is accurate. Although they did just spend £80m on Maguire so I'm not sure I believe they won't pony up in this case.
  5. That red one...yikes. As much as I dig the home kit, that is one is awful. Looks like they were designing the new Barca kit and fell asleep halfway through before adding the yellow.
  6. I would gladly take all those Ajax players here. 😂 Van de Beek will be a very shrewd signing for not much money for whoever gets him. Classy on the ball and goals from midfield. Could be a Ziyech-like bargain.
  7. Love it. Beauty in simplicity. The opposite of the atrocious kit we've worn this season with that dreadfully busy design all over it.
  8. Would be hugely embarrassing to lose 4 times in one season to any team. To lose to Solskjaer 4 times in one season would be beyond embarrassing. We better not...
  9. On one hand Ross Barkley performing well is great for the rest of this season but on the other hand it may convince Lamps and our board that Havertz isn't needed. Hmmmm.
  10. If that is accurate then it's a fucking beauty! Love the black detailing.
  11. Turned it off as soon as Wolves scored. Villa are shocking as usual. They have absolutely zero goal threat up top at all. If they go down I can see them not coming back up any time soon. Grealish will be gone for sure.
  12. As I think you said yesterday, if Willian stays then I very much doubt we'll be signing another attacking player. And Frank seems to really love him so I can easily see him signing an extension.
  13. So what'll that be, Conte's 25th signing since joining Inter? 😆 Its cool to see Inter on the way back up, but damn. They could be at risk of doing it too quickly and screwing themselves financially.
  14. I remember Mendy really impressing me when he first moved to City. His crossing and delivery into the box was wicked and his pace bombing down the flank was quite a sight. I guess his big injury really took a lot out of him? But yeah, he seems kind of the opposite of a Pep player. Can see them moving on from him.
  15. If Alaba is available you'd have to imagine Pep would be all over him. Their defense is as shambolic as ours is.
  16. Okay, I'm watching it in full. Although I bet even on the American broadcast I'm going to be hearing nothing but Liverpool this, Liverpool that for most of the 90 minutes. 😷
  17. HOLY SHIT, WE WON?!! YES! Should I watch it since I missed it or was it not a great performance?
  18. I can honestly see another "high score to nil" score line again here. Such a poor looking XI. Kinda glad I won't be able to watch.
  19. Just found out I'm going to be busy when this match kicks off and probably won't even be able to pop in for updates while it's going on. 😩😩😩 Going to be excruciating wondering what's going on in such a massive game and it'll feel like an even bigger gut punch if I check later and see we've lost.
  20. Win tomorrow and it'll give us a massive boost in confidence. Think we 100% lock up a top 4 finish afterwards. Lose and its squeaky bum time. And for players like ours who are mentally fragile as it is.....I think we're in real danger.
  21. Nah, don't think they'll win out. I just think we have far more slip up fixtures than they do.
  22. All about their defense compared to ours. They've been horrendous to watch up until just recently but even at their worst they could always defend very effectively. Now they can both shut teams out like before but also have crazy attacking firepower since they're all fit. Us on the other hand.... Honestly, though, even with our horrid defense we would be in such a comfortable position had we capitalized on our dominance in so many matches.
  23. So the two sides who have been punching way above their weight all season appear to have completely collapsed. Both Leicester and Sheffield United are dropping like a brick. With the two run-in's compared, I think there's a very strong chance United finishes above us if we lose tomorrow. And while everyone would go mad if they did, we have to remember that they spent £150m on players for this season whilst we've spent £0. Plus we have essentially a rookie coach. They should finish ahead of us and it'll be a ridiculous achievement if Frank hangs on and finishes in the top 4. I think (again, assuming we lose tomorrow which is highly likely) we need to worry about Wolves and finishing in that 5th spot. Then hoping like hell that UEFA don't get clowned on and City's ban is upheld.
  24. As long as he doesn't end up at a PL rival I won't be devastated or anything if we miss out. If he goes to Real Madrid or Bayern I won't be bothered. I think he's going to develop into a worldie in a couple of years so if he ends up at City, Liverpool, or United I'd be super jealous.
  25. Seems like every morning some Twitter rando posts some nonsense about us bidding or being in talks with Leverkusen. And every day nothing happens. This is why people should stop getting excited or convinced he's joining until we actually get news from someone reliable.
