Good thing y'all signed Mahrez then. It will be such a pity losing one of the best players in the league. IMO, he was #2 only to Salah last year.
He's off to see the Knee Whisperer in Barthelona, Dr. Ramon Cugat...he's the Dr. James Andrews of soccer. Got Mendy back from ACL in 8 months.
Yeah they sold or loaned all their backup keepers...no bueno. Talking about a desperation loan for Keylor Navas. My guess is that falls through and they promote an ill prepared EDS kid.
I like the idea of Evan Dietrich-Smith as a goalkeeper. 
Or in Kiel's case, Erectile Dysfunction Syndrome**.
**HatefulTM
WTF, they actually enforce DUI's in England?
Don’t they realize he’s French? Apparently, he could still walk when they busted him. What more can you expect from a Frenchman?
You can expect him to have a mistress on the side, too.
Wolves 1 City 1? 
Co-MVP for Wolves? The goalpost and referee Martin Atkinson.
English refs are the worst in the world.
This has been a recurring theme for City the last 18 months...inability to put bad teams away consistently, letting them hang around, etc when anything can happen.
This squad has too many nice guys...DeBruyne is the heavy hand on that squad, and they are soft without him. Long season...I think we'll be OK.
Hit the post 3 times and their goal was a handball? Yeah, you are probably okay.
LMFAO!!! Spurs turning it into the "Theatre of Reams," today!
Can't wait to go home. I get to watch it in sparkling 4K, no less. I bet Mourinho's pouting face is that much more spectacular in 4K.
No surprise, Mou acts like a complete and utter twat-whistle post-match. At least he didn't call it a fake result like the first time Pep beat him in the PL.
F91 Dudelange become the first side from Luxembourg to qualify for a European competition, at least since the end of the Cup Winners' Cup.
Toni Kroos throwing some shade on Leroy Sane for having all the talent in the world, but apparently not that motivated. Explains why Loew left him off the WC squad. Also explains why Pep benched him last year early on, and now this year.
Can only write it off to "youthful immaturity," for so long, and then it becomes he's just a difficult little twat. 22 is old enough to decide you are a serious footballer.
Hope Leroy gets his $hit together, not just for City but for Die Mannschaft

Hopefully coming from someone of Kroos' stature, it will have an impact on Leroy...a wake up call of sorts. But my gut tells me, like most self-absorbed millennials, it will probably have zero effect. Hope I'm wrong.
Sané should just play the race card like Özil, and all the useless idiots in the media will fall for it.
At least Sane would have a leg to stand on being half black. Ozil is Turkish, he's Caucasian.
Sorry GL about Spurs...not having Dele hurt. 'Poo seems to be the cats pyjamas this year...we are all just looking up at them.
Liverpool were so much better than us. We needed to upgrade our roster, but when your owner is as cheap as ours...
Tis true...Ebenezer Levy is the George Halas of the EPL...he throws around nickels like man-hole covers.
Any City fan who thought 2018-19 was going to be a repeat of 17-18 has had a nice dose of reality the last month.
Winning in the PL is hard...repeating as Champions even harder. Right now City is an absolute mess without DeBruyne. An at home humiliation to Lyon is being written off as "City has no tradition in the CL, thereforce, they don't value it like other clubs."
Mmm...not buying that one. This team is inconsistent because it is built with a couple of lunchpail guys (Fernandinho, DeBruyne, David Silva, Jon Stones, Aguero) and the rest are young guys who show up for matches when they feel like it. Jesus is starting to become a disappointment...he's been hanging out with Neymar too much, flopping all over the goddamn field. It's shameful.
By no means am I writing anything off, but these next 4-6 matches are critical because they will be without KDB. Pep's got his work cut out for him. It will be entertaining to see how it plays out.
Fuggin Delph...dude's been reading his press clippings. He was an absolute liability vs Lyon...lowest rated player in the match...2's and 3's. As soon as Mendy comes back, he's back where he belongs...in CDM roll or on the bench.
Scousers are the class of the league right now.
Isn't it amazing how Ronaldo (and everybody else) did much worse at Madrid and never saw red, but the minute he leaves he gets sent off.
Fukk does anyone but me and GL talk about soccer anymore?
I would if I knew anything about it. Let me see if I can.
That kicker guy should score more goals. He sucks.
Kiel can give you some lessons on hand placement.
Chongo posted:So I take it you don't care for Real Madrid?
Everybody hates Real Madrid.
You seem to have an elevated disdain for them. Not a fan, but, maybe because my squad has never been roughed up by them in a match that had serious consequences.
Ramos is a twat though. One of these days karma's coming back around and gonna do him dirty in a big way.
