    Looking at Liverpool’s form and Arsenal’s run in its hard to see how either will stop City
  • Just can’t see a way forward with him. We (likely) have an even lower bar of top 5 this season and we’re 9 points off with 8 games remaining and Liverpool, Arsenal and Newcastle still to play.
  • GBBQ replied to the thread Television 3 Body Problem.
    Two episodes in and I’m liking it. I’ll give the changes from the book a pass for the moment. It’s probably necessary to make the cold hard science of the book more engaging for a one hour episode format (still though some key concepts are really...
  • With the number of players needed it makes sense to maximise our budget considering the FFP impacts but I doubt we’re only looking at these types of players. Nothing wrong with canny investment.
  • Hopefully taking a hit in January will give us a little more wiggle room in Summer. Clearing wages and some small fees coming in versus no incomings will help balance the books. Then in the summer getting rid of Martial and probably Sancho fully...

    Just can’t see it either. The mess that we’re in at the monent is a much bigger task than replacing VVD and Salah. I doubt he needs a pay day and he knows he would burn all bridges with Liverpool fans laid he takes the job. That would be 10 times...
  • GBBQ replied to the thread Omar Berrada | Man Utd CEO.
    I mean your club didn’t see fit to fire him all the while this has been looming. These things are rarely down to the actions of one single person and I think we all expect that City will never realistically be punished for this; It was all...
  • GBBQ replied to the thread Omar Berrada | Man Utd CEO.
    I agree but there are already positives in that we’re going for someone with a track record as opposed to someone who brokered the take over deal. Also how many times has an individual been held accountable for FFP breaches / accounting...
