Yeboii

Nope Reports said that he was going to Flamengo, but due to some rivalry Kenedy wouldn't go.

I think Zouma, Aké, Chalobah and RLC will start. If Musonda and Kenedy are not going on loan it would be nice to see them play in this match. Same with Ola Aina. If Michy plays then hopefully he will get at least one goal!

I think people are more moaning because the Chinese are getting really exciting players like Texeira and Oscar. I'm not sure a lot of people would say that Livermore is exciting lol

Guess that's it for Rashford then. What a shame United are too busy being the next galactico team. Maybe we should bid for Rashford!

Those numbers are total bullshit. Like Traoré, for example, would go for only 10 million and Baker would go for only 6 million...

I think its more him being desperate for recognition for his work as president. Pretty much everything else has fallen apart for him.

I think he is a really good player playing in a kind of a broken team where Pep can't organize them in defense, and he is paying the price. If Stones would be here under Conte I think he would be a terrific player!

They were not that good to be honest. Pogba was shocking and United would have been better off without him playing. He will probably get a ban as well for losing his temper on Henderson. Ibra was invisible much of the game until that offside "fluke" goal, but his headed finish was really terrific. Mkhytariarasfsa (however you spell it) always drove forward but nothing came from it usually. Btw cheeky bid for Alexander-Arnold (Liverpool's teenage left back in the game)? He was really good considering he was targeted the whole game.

Pogba trying to be fancy when there were teammates open. Doesn't work, loses the ball that nearly leads to a goal. He has been so terrible in this game. How is he getting all this hype?

Lets see them beat teams like Man U easily 4-0 and go on a 13 game winning run first.

Interesting.

I'm just bewildered by how Conte can't seem to make one of the best, and promising, young strikers in the world work in his team. Especially when he got Moses, Alonso and Pedro fitting like a glove! Hope we don't lose him since I think he can reach the same heights as Drogba (I know Matic would agree with me on that one according to his comments on FNL). Letting him go would be like letting De Bruyne go all over again, and imagine how we would be with KdB in the team.

When a loan isn't working out = "meh just keep him there" When a loan is going great = "Take him back to us!"

I'm betting you didn't even know who Marcos Alonso was before he signed for us. He came good.

Showed much more passion against Stoke than in previous games. Terrific... Just what the doctor ordered.

If we are losing he will put on Bats and Chalo. If we are winning he will put on Iva and Chalo. Hoping to see Aina, RLC and/or Batshuayi playing at some point!

Merry christmas!

I don't think its true that players only view clubs as jobs. Most do have an affection for their club and will do forever. When they join another team it can be because of a variety or reasons, but when they join they have to perform to their best or they are breaching their contract with the club.

Check out the tunnel cam video after the game (man city vs. arsenal ofc). After the game he was tearing up trying to hold the tears after the game.

Did it once in a game. No shame lol

I find it weird he wants a new contract at Arsenal. He is a great player and is 27 years old so he should be wanting more success before he gets too old. If he wants to really win more trophies he will have to join one of the giant teams (granted Arsenal is a big club, but they rarely win anything). In my opinion he should be looking to join a club like Juventus, Bayern, City, Real (probably not a return to Barca) or even Chelsea (we usually win trophies every year regardless of manager).

"Calm down"

If someone thinks he didn't get in the team because he was bad then that is not the case. He was injured the whole time he was there (when he was not he got his appearance). I was so surprised to see him go on loan as I rate him so highly so I hope he gets to play some this season!

From what I've read he isn't scoring more these days because Bristol City has been playing really bad and isolating their striker.

Disagree. Cesc has been nothing but a true blue since he came here, always putting the team first.
