Interesting they have nothing to say about the refereeing when they played against City. Oh well let us hope they miss out on top four and Madrid/Munich do them from behind.
You are right, it is madness, but why are you questioning the legitimacy of the City ownership, this is also madness. Are you saying rich people shouldn't own sporting franchises, are you suggesting royalty should be banned from owning sporting franchises, or is it an Arab thing?
If you are now...
I neither defended nor agreed with the point made, I merely pointed out it was disingenuous to pretend one didn't understand the comparison being drawn. Without being drawn into the rights and wrongs of America's foreign policy and their treatment at home of certain groups, I believe there is a...
I think he refers to the fact that your argument relies on City being owned by someone from a nation with whom you are not wholly aligned politically, he is countering that by suggesting that perhaps United's owners hail from a country which are not/have not covered themselves in glory in that...
Not sure if it is correct to take a player's price tag into consideration when discussing performances, I think on ability it probably is, on effort it probably isn't. Though Pogba was overpriced, then watched the market skyrocket and thought, wait and see. Since then have only really been...
Tax returns are based on ticket sales not bums on seats, in the 80s I rememer squeezing into a packed kippax only to read the next day there were 30k at the game, reason being our somewhat dubious chairman was avoiding tax, now we report the ticket sales and get accused of over reporting. Guess...
not sure he is a "breakthrough" player, but you may be right, think he is better suited to the international game than the premier league, to which he is still adapting, but recent performances suggest he is adding a bit of steel to his great array of talents.
Essam El Hadary, he will have a worldy of a WC, captaining Egypt to the Semis at least, Arsenal will then sign him only to discover their break through player is 45
It may be, it may not, he may get injured, he may fall out with his manager, he may decide he hates football, they may find another worldy for a fraction of the price. My point is on a risk reward basis the smart decision is sell.
If Salah is worth 150+ sell him. On a risk reward basis, how likely is he to replicate this season, if he doesn't his value decreases. If they can get the right replacement for 75 mio its good business. If I were the owner of Liverpool I would be lining up a replacement now.
If the front 6 is;
Ferdi Silva KDB
Silva Jesus Sane
they may well end up with 80 percent possession at Anfield, they problems are, what will Liverpool do with the other 20 percent and who will score for City? Could see it failing to live up to the goalfest tag it already has.
Put in Sterling...
Gosh, that's about as bitter and "unwise" as I have seen on this forum. You discount the racism angle, you discount the sky 4 angle, you discount the Sun pandering to Liverpool fans and you say it is because he went from a, "big club", who have not wont the title in the lads memory to a "small...
