This fixture is indefensibly corrupt.

Wild that they have the nerve to complain about Pickford on van Dijk when they have repeatedly suffered zero consequences for anything else they’ve ever done.

Stupida fucking game.

He’s off.

Not allowed to have nice things.

They’re getting into all of the positions where they normally torture us and bottling them due to lack of cohesion.

Gotta stick the knife in early, can’t be letting them grow into this.

Someone tell O’Brien and McNeil that Gakpo is never ever going down the line.

Shouldn’t be getting it onto his right when both of them are there.

Getting the full spectrum of Beto here.

I like him overall but the rough edges are extra rough.

Book someone, you soft twat.

If they’re not at it and putting a lazy foot in repeatedly, they need proper warning.

Show that one again.

Can’t really be shoulder to shoulder if KDH is in front of him.

Always too early to book our opponent.

Looking for us to show up and compete for 90’.

There was only one team on the pitch for the first half of the game in September and we still almost got something out of it after we turned up for the second.

Can’t be coming out flat and getting blown away like that. Completely flattered them.

I’m not ready to give up on him. He’s only 20 and has Grealish spaceman potential. It’s possible that his style is too laid back and it’ll never work. It’s also possible that he needed a year to learn what’s required of him off the ball at this level. Southampton didn’t really develop that side of h...

I just don’t see this move in isolation causing any major problems. If we start regularly shelling out for pretty good players with similar age profiles to Grealish, then we’re heading down the same horrible path as under Moshiri. If we do this sort of thing sparingly and for needle-movers like Jack...

Whats reasonable? I think the problem is both the fee and the length of the contract. 20m doesn't seem awful but the flip side of that is do we really want to be committing to more than 2 years given his age and massive wages. We dont want to get stuck with a reserve earning mega money in 3 or 4 ye...

I should also add - I think we’ll get a reasonable price because he’s bought in.

If he wants this move, City aren’t really holding any cards except reintegrating him into the squad.

His game’s not dependent on pace which is the number one thing that tends to erode with age. The only against argument I’m properly sympathetic to is potential injuries as he ages. He’s been kicked a lot and will continue to get kicked a lot. Really hard to say if this season’s injury is a freak thi...
