By gifting one of them one for this season.

The drop off has been rather immediate hasn't it.

Didn't really know where else to put this but I was just listening to the Guardian football weekly podcast and enjoyed the description of Chelsea "financially drinking their own urine to survive".

One of my favourite footballing podcasts that I can usually still listen to even if we've lost as the discussions are usually pretty funny.

Why would BBC reporter Shamoon Hafez write this puff piece?

"Last season was a difficult one for the team in which they failed to win a major trophy across all competitions and Guardiola would have needed extra moments during preparations to conclude his remarks and relay messages - for this reason, the team have not been sent out on time as required by the Premier League."

Couldn't any team that was losing a match and failed to meet timelines defend itself in this manner? Ridiculous.

Sounds like he's angling for a job in City's Promotions Department, or as Head of Communications.

Yeah this is a weird thing to defend, in fact are longer half-time team talks even beneficial (e.g too many instructions or info to take in?)

Or Pep could just do a Phil Brown and have his players sit in a circle on the pitch.
