Manchester City

[Doc_Piptorious]

Newcastle are pretty well supported, don't think you can link the two in that regard. City are a joke

Outside of their own city?


I was not comparing crowd sizes anyway, more that they are not too far removed from their City counterparts in how they are already making excuses for the actions of their owners and lauding a despot state. Just as two faced as their City cousins. All they are now is City when the oil money first came to town.

Them mocking City fans for being fickle is funny to me as I see Newcastle supporters as being cut from the same cloth these days. Plus they like to sing the poverty songs and Hillsborough shyte so they can get ****ed in my eyes.

You calling him Poop Guardiola?

Proper retro insult

[Fosterbloke]

I'd rather their midfield was out than their defence.

It's a start

Could do with an old fashioned reducer on KDB this week. They go to **** when he's out

We had our chance to do that more than once recently

I for one am shocked…..

Wonder how Harry Kane feels about all of this?

He just got Kaned…….

I’m one of the ones hoping he doesn’t “suit” them but the guy is a ****ing freak who scores goals. I think the EPL will suit him as the games are open - let’s hope his injury problems continue but he fills a big gap in their squad

I think it won't because he'll get lumps kicked out of him by carthorse cloggers

Does he though?

They are set up to score a **** ton through midfielders and have the goals spread throughout their team.

Plus they are set up so that they can flood the midfield with four and sometimes five players, but put him up front as an out and out striker and it eats into their ability to flood the middle as easily without leaving a gap.

Would also argue how many more goals can City really score as a team, as in game changing goals. They are a team that will be around the 90 point mark every season, so unless he turns them into a team that can up that to winning 38 from 38 I am not so sure if he will have a massive impact.

I think he will score plenty of goals, but that will come at the expense of some of the current goalscorers. Will imo be a bit like Ronaldo at the other Mancs. Will come in and get lots and goals, but players who had been scoring a lot the previous season will get less goals and in the case of some of them less minutes.

As things stand they already get 5-0, 6-0 and 7-0 wins every season. What does he do add another goal or two in those games and flat trach bully the teams they already flat track bully?

Where I think he would have been a real game changer is at a team like Chelsea who create chances, who try to use a central strikder as a focal point, but for whatever reason never seem to get one in that can take advantage of the chances they make. For Chelsea I think Halland could have been worth an extra 10 or 15 points a season, City on the other hand will not see that sort of improvement unless we go back to that winning 38 out of 38 or close to that scenario and think that it is plausible.
