  1. Laporte and Höwedes both would be decent options. Höwedes btw would be dead cheap as his release clause is only 18m € ( exactly 13,25 m pounds atm)
  2. The way you clinge to that n.10 argument gives away some degree of desperation. Cuadrado got a new number a few weeks ago, too. Not that I am sure it will happen. But the squad no is not an argument. I am waiting for someone to come around the corner with "he is on a Fifa cover" argument. I appreciate your contribution here and understand you want to keep your best player, but whether it will happens or not, you know as much about it as anyone here.
  3. I am all for playing with a back 3 esp against smaller teams but the proposed formation is a 5 defender one IMO. Actual 3 pep style defender formations would be GC. Zoum azpi Matic fab Willian Oscar pedro Hazard Costa Would be a bit risky without a DM in place of fabregas
  4. Having seen magic perform poorly for months now we should be looking for a rotation option to rest him at times. Thinking of someone in the ink of Lucas Silva, Christoph Kramer. Shame we passed on Johannes geis
  5. Like falcao, pato would be some kind of resurrection mission and I think one is more than enough. So no thanks.
  6. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r5l3wtDtT6Q 70m well invested. Ronaldo also does this a lot and he was 80m. bargain.
  7. the first one right, yeah. imagine a backline of him and gc, they would back off each other out of the stadium...but he can improve as for the second one, stones had the situation under control and there came gallaway to tackle stones for whatever reason. completely gallaway's fault. never seen such a ridiculous brainfart moment before cos from a controlled situation it gifted city a must-score opportunity.
  8. everton are so poor, making it too easy for city to defend their ridiculous attacks. btw city is just plain lucky. everton gifted them the win by giving away the ball all to easily every time. never seen a team behave so unclever
  9. city winning it despite playing like shit. mark of champions or just plain luck powered by incompetent refs?
  10. everton so unlucky. lukaku scored a perfectly legit goal. fuck the linesmen. already 3 big decision they failed to our disadvantage.
  11. what problem do people have with fabregas? IMO he was really decent today. played various great through balls but costa was wasteful.
  12. ivanovic is such a liability. everytime he has to defend he gets beaten. about time, azpi takes his place and baba on the left.
  13. 2-3 wtf our attacking has improved but our defence is still shambles
  14. 1 day with the team and directly develops instant understanding with hazard. i remember one pundit said his football intelligence was his main quality. so true. the way he runs through the lines and links up with the others is just so smooth and intuitive.
  15. that was a nice goal by azpi. we play some really efficient football today.
  16. btw pedro is pure fucking quality. such quick thinking.
  17. Without obligation to buy... Not a great deal for us. 1.5 is only a fraction of his depreciation in value within a year given his age. But I guess there were no better options... Other sources have it as 18m permanent... Too good to be true
  18. idk. wasn't he really decent for sevilla? i remember him scoring those two brilliant individual goals there ...well I just checked those two were his only goals there Anyway. I understand that with his injury record no one wants him.
  19. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xLkjRYQjfgE never mind a highlight reel but 3:11 made me laugh.
  20. well...i've read the opposite in medical literature...don't know about your German https://books.google.de/books?id=xzNAJDlQJyEC&pg=PA76&lpg=PA76&dq=erm%C3%BCdung+achillessehnenriss&source=bl&ots=__u3zFw0uS&sig=58ADd4QNqooxt8UbTZ8umBBpxoE&hl=de&sa=X&ved=0CCQQ6AEwAGoVChMIkJm82oe5xwIVCToUCh22QwNK#v=onepage&q=erm%C3%BCdung%20achillessehnenriss&f=false
  21. Probably he would have got injured here as well. Injuries are most often due to fatigue of the tissue. He played a copa america only had a short holiday and did not recover properly. Bullet dodged.
  22. Maybe. But Ramirez is subnormal whilst luiz next to magic was normal enough to own the shit out of yaya,fernandinho and silva
  23. Kdb and otamendi or not - city will win the title this season and there is nothing we can do about it. We could have done when the transfer window opened and choose not to. Pedro, baba, stones are decent signings but too little too late. How come? Kompany is only 2 years older than ota and their best defender so far. TV deal maybe
