Well disappointing if they **** it up at the end I mean. I'd rather they finish 5th than Chelsea anyway.
I'd be happy with that. Could do with Forest taking 4th and Villa or Chelsea nudging Toon out completely, make for some good bantz that would.
There was some rumour De Bruyne was coming to you as well, a few weeks back...anyway, read an article yesterday and apparently Man City never offered him a new contract, which he said he was a bit surprised at.
Hed not get in our team now tbh And city are classless af so I'd guess kev will get a cringy statue like aguero instead of a contract
I did think, why would he go to Liverpool, at 33 he can't be that desperate. Not sure what he will do to be honest, probably piss off to Saudi. I know he says supposely that he's not been offered a contract at City, but surely people still talk to one another these days in transfer deals, just get his agent on the case, or use his own mouth and ****ing ask, if he really wants to stay... dare I say, maybe the usual greed gets in the way and City feel he might not get what he wants. Like I say I don't really get any of it, and most the time papers write bolloxs anyway.
They might be 14th in the league but they’re still a huge attraction to players all over the world. One terrible season isn’t suddenly going to turn them into a poxy club. They’re still one of the worlds biggest.
Well it isn't one season tbf, they've been in decline since Ferguson left, with the odd decent season. If they can't offer Europe next season it will be a big factor as well.
They’ve still collected the odd trophy, though. Like I said they’re still viewed as one of the biggest clubs in the world. Most players would jump at the chance to move there.
Gonna have to disagree with you there Dogsdick ... Many footballers are, first and foremost, mercenaries and secondly, egotists - and do you really think that a player will turn down the chance to join a rich and famous club like Manchester United on big money for an Atalanta (insert your own) because Atalanta are in the Champions League next season? United are still a huge draw for players and are likely to always be ... one of the most famous clubs in the world...
Probably right, although i like to think they ain't such a pull these days, they always will be to some extent. Presumably things will improve a bit without the genius that is Dan Ashworth recruiting as well.
Arsenal reserves v Palace reserves tonight. Only interesting if Arsenal lose and deny Liverpool the chance of winning the title themselves.
