    A quick check on his stats in advance show the player he was becoming:

    18/19 League Games 34 Goals 12 CL Games 7 Goals 1 B]Cup[/B] Games 2 Goals 0
    19/20 League Games 32 Goals 17 CL Games 8 Goals 2 B]Cup[/B] Games 3 Goals 0
    20/21 League Games 26 Goals 8 CL Games 6 Goals 2 Cup Games 6 Goals 6

    They've ruined him. Its the classic Spurs m.o., buy a promising player, wreck him.
    But it also makes you think about Bellingham and his worth….

      So tough titties on the Mancs if they have to "get by" with a £30m centre back, an £80m centre back, a £50m right back and a £20m left back.

      All in front of the highest paid goalkeeper in the game today.


      Throw in £150m worth of wingers, a £50m striker, and three good midfiders (two of whom would improve our current midfield options on current form).

      They also were able to sub on a £30m left back, a £50m midfielder, along with Rashford, Elanga and Weghorst.


      Hard to see how any excuses can be made for them, and cretins like Neville and Carragher bleating about how the manager needs money to be spent on the team to overhaul it just shows how clueless they are.
      I don't hate people. I just feel better when they aren't around.

          Citeh all day long

          The Premier League and FA have sat back and allowed Citeh to all but destroy any semblance of competitiveness in their league and cup competitions. They can now reap what they've sown by allowing Citeh to bend the rules at will.

          My position is borne out of pure spite. When we were challenging Citeh over the last few seasons not a single fan of other clubs was wanting us to win. Those short sighted ****ed couldn't see the bigger picture.

          So **** those fans of other clubs, **** the fa and **** the premier league.

          If we can't win the competitions then Citeh are welcome to them.
          By continually sweeping all before them Citeh can continue to drive the notion of the English domestic cups and leagues being competitive into the ground.

                  Been banging this drum for as long Spud; this season for me has been one of just stating to other clubs fans 'anyone but, eh....'

                  Is lovely to see the arse fans starting to pipe up how unfair it is LOL

                  They are deserve the **** that is Man C; at one point yesterday ITV showed the players not on the pitch, Haaland, Stones, Ederson, Rodri, De Bryne, plus 2/3 others i cannot remember who are top drawer players.

                  **** em all

                    I've wanted City to win the league over Arsenal, not because I hate Arsenal or even prefer City but because City winning it means nothing. It's expected, almost a yearly procession to the title.

                    I hadn't thought about when we won it and the lack of any pleasure from other fans, seems hatred of us runs deep. Leicester were cheered, but not us. It's odd because among all that Klopp is universally admired and even liked

                      Problem then starts if we get back to slugging it out with City next season. The media dicks then play up the "best league in the world" crap and how plucky City fight against the established clubs.

                      What you will never get is wasters like Carragher or Neville making any sort of one team league comments. They will make that comment about the Spanish, French and German leagues, but push the propaganda for their paymasters when it comes to the PL.

                      Bit like how Carragher was on the other day about how he thinks diving is fine and should not be criticised, and how Kane is really good at it and that it is a skill.

                      Same spit the dog Carragher who layed into Mo on a regular basis for being a cheat for diving.

                      Carragher, Neville, Richards etc...just thick men not smart or talented enough to be good or even semi decent coaches or managers, but who like to pretend they know more than managers who worked hard to be good at what they do.

                        I don't disagree with much of that, but the last paragraph I don't know if any of them would or wouldn't be able to carve out a decent career in coaching or management.

                        But if I were them, I don't think I would bother. A conservative estimate would be that they earned at least an average of £50k a week for 15 years as players so (assuming they didn't blow it) they don't need the money, working for sky they will still get 100's of thousands of pounds a year, for watching football and giving their insights (this link suggests Carragher and Neville get £1m a year https://sportslens.com/uk/news/top-1...-neville-earn/. Probably more than most coaches get, less than at PL manager, but it's a much easier life.
                        The only gracious way to accept an insult is to ignore it; if you can't ignore it, top it; if you can't top it, laugh at it; if you can't laugh at it, it's probably deserved.

                              Pundits should be renamed ****wits as that's exactly what they are. Neville used to talk some sense but in the last few seasons he's been bitter, biased and endlessly talks about lack of investment at United despite ****ing billions being pumped into transfers since Old Whisky Nose left.

                              Carragher is an awful pundit - completely at odds with his knowledge of the game, ironically. He makes some really 'odd' calls and comments during games, usually to do with fouls or diving, or refereeing decisions or holding in the box. He's at complete odds with what we're watching most of the time. Bizarre. Plus, he's got a real chip on his shoulder about this LFC side for some reason...

                              Richards, for me, is muted immediately. Such a ****ing clown of a pundit, total child and his insights are laughable. Constantly in hysterics like some deranged anti-social misfit. And why does he wear spandex clothes - he looks like he wears a lycra outfit stretched over him. Just buy clothes that fit, dickhead... you've got the money.

                              Bring back Thommo, Hansen, even. Not Lawro, he's a dick too.

                                I've said before we were doing City from top to bottom a huge favour by being so competitive. If we hadn't and city had cruised the last 5 leagues then things would be different now i think. And to think their fans hate us
