cool as the proverbial cucumber me.

according to this article dated the 13th august martyn ziegler from the times has stated the verdict from man city's APT case against masters and his mates will be revealed in 2 weeks. that's today.

I fully expect that by the time I uncork a nice bottle of rioja this evening to accompany my chunk of cabrales we'll have announced several £billions of sponsorship deals and tomorrow we'll buy every fucker.

mark my words.

So we get Guehi and Howe sees it as a success. Fine, but he better start playing one of Barnes or Gordon on the right. 

 

Either/or-ing those two in favour of Murphy or Miggy doesn't make any sense. 


If he doesn’t see Gordon as a natural RW it raises questions about the wisdom of Barnes signing. It’s great having depth down the left with Gordon, Barnes, Joelinton and Willock all providing good cover there but the right flank was in greater need of upgrading. Why blow £45m on Barnes if Gordon was seen as first choice in that position?

 

Murphy and Miggy are fine as rotation options but they’re not at the same technical level and they lack consistency. I’m surprised if he thinks they’re good enough for where we want to be. 

 

From Gordon’s pov, he plays his best football down the left and he was brilliant for us in that position last season so it makes sense to continue to use him there. I think something has gone wrong if we see another season of Murphy and Miggy competing for starting spot down the right.

Gordon is right footed, so why not put him on the right?

Isn't Barnes as well? Anyway inverted wingers.

Because Gordon was absolute dog dirt in his first six months for us.

howe loves an inverted winger, doesn't he? recycle the ball, work it around the box for the high-value opportunity to open up instead of getting to the byline and whipping it in - it's the modern way

For an inverted winger lover he seems to love Murphy on the RW at the minute.


gordon should start at RW if we don’t bring a new one in then one of Barnes or Joelinton down the left

£25m for a 1 in 4 striker is mental. He had a good chance to impress last season in a team that creates loads and was shit - bar one hat trick.

Wonder if he'll stay or take the big saudi money. According to the crystal palace forums, hes on 30k a week 

 

Palace fans have the inside track on what Brentford's Ivan Toney is getting paid?

Chelsea are also in talks with Man United over Sancho apparently. :lol:

 

I don't know what game Boehly is playing, but at some point the shit is gonna hit the fan with PSR for that lot. It is just impossible for it to continue like this.

Saw some talk there’s possible penalties incoming for Abramovich cheating/shenanigans, good way to mitigate a transfer ban by buying the whole fucking world population of footballers before it comes into force.

lol, i'm no expert i'm just a fan. my views on City will be similar to your views on United ( gives self a pat on the back for using United in the correct context on a Newcastle forum )

 

as such ziegler should know more facts than me, although he may have different emotions.

 

a agree that the 2 cases between City and the PL are unrelated.

 

the feeling on bluemoon is that we may have done okay in the APT case. some success. but it was never the huge deal that the press made out. we objected to the legality of a fairly new APT rule tweak. In essence, we felt that the Premier League shouldn't be deciding what's a fair sponsor deal. But i don't think City would object to a truly independent body deciding. 

 

we all know that the red cartel has strong influence on the Premier League and thats the reason the woman before Masters left, interference. but that's rumour.

 

City didn't just invent the phrase Tyranny of the majority. It describes a scenario where the majority enforces its will on the minority, often to the detriment of minority rights and interests. While democracy aims to balance the will of the majority with the protection of individual and minority rights, tyranny of the majority refers to the failure of this balance, leading to majoritarian overreach and potential injustice.

 

In politics, the tyranny of the majority (or tyranny of the masses) is an inherent weakness to majority rule in which the majority of an electorate pursues exclusively its own objectives at the expense of those of the minority factions.

 

So the PL, acting on behalf of majority of PL clubs, would like to stop oil clubs investing freely, to the detriment of the few. City and United (another pat on the back)

 

think the above might be bias bollocks but i'm a football fan on a football forum so don't really care.
