  • sugar_kane replied to the thread The genius of Marcus Rashford.
    They sing his name every game, I don't think that's the problem. The fans might groan from time to time but they'd never actively turn on a homegrown player like Rashford. I actually found it fairly refreshing to see him talk like a human to...
  • sugar_kane replied to the thread Everybody hates us/ABU etc.
    Not going to happen until a good 30/40 years after we last won the league, if ever. We've scarred entire generations with our success, and that hatred has been passed down from parents to children who didn't even witness it first hand.
  • I'm starting to think that nonsense like this isn't necessarily cynical brand-building PR, I think it comes from a place of insecurity and fear. He's struggling to prove himself with his actions on the pitch and therefore feels like he has to...
  • sugar_kane replied to the thread Liverpool will win the league.
    I'm sure I'll regret saying it but I'm not fecking arsed if they win it. Sorting out our own club is top priority anything else is just noise. Would actually rather them than City as I don't want City doing four in a row. At least Liverpool are...
  • The shocking analysis and unbelievably poor stats from the last few weeks have turned me from 'give him next season under a stable structure' to get rid asap. He either doesn't see the gaping chasm in midfield as a problem, or he doesn't know...
  • He's not a dissimilar signing to Zlatan, Cavani and Ronaldo. Big player at the tail end of his career who could plug a gap for a season or so. The difference with Casemiro is we paid about £60-70m more than each of those signings.
  • I don't think this is fair, Ten Hag seems to be doggedly sticking to a set of tactics in the same way LVG did. Both equally ineffectual and impractical for the PL. Ten Hag gets points for it being marginally less boring, but we're also way more...
  • Does anyone else feel like he's just going through the motions now? I think he knows he's on borrowed time. He seems to just say the the same meaningless shit in every single interview - I know he's always been like this, but never so bad. He's...
  • sugar_kane replied to the thread Weird feelings of football.
    Any player who’s spoken about wanting to play with a smile on their face is an absolute chancer who never goes on to achieve anything.
  • What Ineos do about Rashford will tell you everything you need to know about how serious they are about running our club. Giving him yet another chance under a sixth manager (not counting Carrick) purely because of who he is (because it damn...
  • sugar_kane replied to the thread Weird feelings of football.
    There is no way there are any of these records still standing, commentators are just making them up on the spot to make us feel worse.
  • Do you even have a clue what you're talking about? The majority of development round City's ground has been sporting, and more recently a new arena. There has also been significant investment in transport with the Metrolink being extended that...
  • sugar_kane replied to the thread Højlund scoring thread.
    Obviously he won't now because of this thread, but I just read he is only the fourth player to score 6 games in a row for us alongside: RVN Ronaldo Cantona Surely they can't be right? Insane stat if so.
  • This kid has the lot - ability, aggression, personality, stamina, and he's only 20. Hopefully he can stay fit. Keep seeing stuff about him proving the critics wrong etc, but to be honest no-one with a brain was criticising him - even the ABU...
  • It’s probably just cos it’s unprecedented for this type of role But that aside, just paying up whatever we’re asked has been our problem for years. We have to do the negotiation dance - as long as we don’t lose our man, which we won’t since he’s...
