One window mate in which he brought in three very good (and needed) players. Not sure if he will buy in Jan but next on the list should be a controlling mid and a real striker. If he buys in Jan i would think it would be a striker as he needs to get Pogba back playing to get some money back for him before we buy a top mid.
Maybe - I don't pretend to know the future. I'm just not convinced by the way he organises the players he has got to think that augmenting them is going to solve it. We'll see. He might have to give Pogba away in a Lucky Bag. He's a player like Balotelli, plays when the mood takes him and no amount of carrot or stick will make him otherwise.
Do you think that Pogba is going to be allowed back, think we have discussed this before The lad is quality but huge q’s over his attitude, i was told he has literally been out the country recovering, i am not so sure he will play again for utd. Would be great for ole if he could get him on song just not sure he will get the chance or even wants it
I'd rather Leicester stay there, it's something else for Man City to worry about. Leicester are not getting near 90pts, never mind around the 100pts mark.
I have no idea what is going on with him but i am pretty sure it's not the "little" ankle injury he was first out of the team with. most of us want him gone asap and a real replacement bought but that is easier to say/want than it is to do. He needs to be on show to keep his price up to a reasonable level, Ole says he is very close to a return so maybe a few games in December will set him up for a January move.
Hope you are right But as I said a few weeks ago they don’t have Europe and their fixtures are set pretty nicely also as I have also whinged about they have no one that actually wants to beat them (not their fault) I think we should be taking them very serious All the pressure is in us now We have to deal with it like most other title winning sides have had to do
It's a bit of a cliché, but we have to play our own game and not look over our shoulder all the time.
Biggest Premier League leads at the end of November 1993 - Manchester United, 14 points. Title winners: Man Utd by eight points 2019 - Liverpool, 11 points. Title winners: ??? 2005 - Chelsea, 10 points. Title winners: Chelsea by eight points 2000 - Manchester United, eight points. Title winners: Man Utd by 10 points 2017 - Manchester City, eight points. Title winners: Man City by 19 points Critical December? Much has been made of Liverpool's hectic schedule between now and the start of 2020. Klopp's side face nine games in four different competitions - including a trip to Qatar to play two fixtures at the Fifa Club World Cup, which is being broadcast by the BBC. Yet Guardiola's side have a tough December themselves, with eight matches in three different competitions - including two Premier League games in 48 hours against Wolves and Sheffield United. Will such a busy schedule work against them in view of the lacklustre performance against Newcastle? "They were too laboured, they did not move it quick enough and that's why they were punished today," former City midfielder Michael Brown told BBC Radio 5 Live. "They have let Liverpool get that lead now. They have not been themselves." Will injuries bite hard? Liverpool were without key midfielder Fabinho against Brighton, and the Brazilian is unlikely to play again until next year because of ankle ligament damage. Defenders Joel Matip and Nathaniel Clyne have also been nursing injuries, but City have a busy treatment room too. Germany winger Leroy Sane and French defender Aymeric Laporte are expected to be out until around January and February, while Sergio Aguero is another big miss with a thigh injury. In addition, defender Oleksandr Zinchenko has not played for his club since 6 October because of knee damage. "City have got injuries, but this is not an excuse," added Brown. 'We fight until the last day' When Liverpool hammered Arsenal 5-1 on 29 December last year, they led third-placed City, who had a game in hand, by 10 points yet Guardiola's side managed to overturn the deficit in the last 19 matches. "The chase is still on. We fight until the last day," said defiant City and England defender John Stones after the Newcastle game. That's assuming the title battle goes as far as the final day of the season. "Liverpool can win games playing badly, City played badly today but could not win," said BBC Sport football expert Garth Crooks. Klopp's side scored twice in the closing stages at Aston Villa to win 2-1 on 2 November and scored a late winner at Crystal Palace on 23 November. City have failed to hang on to leads in three of their last five league and cup games. Neville believes the way Liverpool keep going until the end could be a critical difference. He said: "There are a lot of teams at the top who are looking tired. Then you look at Liverpool and the way they came back to win late at Crystal Palace." 'We don't think about these things' A huge sigh of relief could be heard around Anfield when referee Martin Atkinson sounded the final whistle on Saturday. Liverpool had the points and Klopp joined his players on the pitch to applaud the fans - the German preferring to concentrate on the positives afterwards. "It's unbelievable how much they want to win. They made it a really special win," he said. Speaking about Liverpool's 11-point advantage, Klopp added: "It's how it is. But if Leicester win tomorrow we are eight points. We don't think about these things." At the same time as Klopp was talking to the media, City were on their way back to Manchester to prepare for Tuesday's match at Burnley. "We have another opponent in front of us, so we now have to try to win games and see what happens," added Guardiola. "I said yesterday at the press conference that it's not a good idea to think about the Premier League or think, how many points?" https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/50617799
If that's what it takes to win the league after all this time I'll have it. Of course, next year I'll want us to start playing better as well.
Need to save something for next season's #progress graph. We already need to win at least the first 14 games or #kloppout
