Might be showing my age, I don’t know who Bell is.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik and Imran hold a long overdue conversation about United's awful league form with 1 win in 7. They discuss a disappointing draw at Bournemouth, a not so disappointing draw against Liverpool and a crushing defeat at Chelsea - Is time nearly over for Erik Ten Hag?
Then in a special second half of the pod, Nik welcomes Natalie ( https://twitter.com/natalie_17) to discuss the fortunes of Manchester United Women as they booked a place in the FA Cup Final after a historic first ever win vs. Chelsea.

Can't believe you wouldn't recognise one of the true footballing greats. He was as good as Messi you know!
Well considering they "marca" are the mouthpiece for RM, it'll take more than a pinch.
Take it with the whole shaker then. It's salty.
Looking at that list, he’s not really given a strong argument for another “Messi” haha
Has Sancho said he's staying at Dortmund?
They were going to rename the Kippax the Joe Mercer Stand and the Platt Lane Stand the Bell End
No meltdown after it’s apparent that Messi isn’t joining this transfer window?
Absolutely amazing putting some city players amongst that all time best player list!
I'll have you know, I voted to name that stand after Bell, for that reason.
It was an open vote, hijacked by reds, and they went with it. Obviously for different reasons.
I think it cost Paul Lake some recognition, as the blue noses were outvoted.
This has to be a wum surely?
have you never net any blue moon style city fans? They genuinely think like this, the genuinely believe Colin bell was better than George best, et al. Weird bunch of mofos
I love the city players added to the end of that list 
And bell, their super hero

Man City 2:5 Leicester City
The lack of activity on this thread is disappointing, particularly considering this is Pep's first ever defeat where the opposition have scored five.
I love that one that is basically we’ve got 8 days to go and buy a new team
Massive club.
"Rag Neville"
Pep’s first ever defeat by 5 goals? Didn’t Madrid put 5 past his Bayern team?
Over 2 legs.
Oh was it? I stand corrected
Yeah over 2 legs. This was the first time in 680 games. Pep is a fantastic manager but city team seems to have run its course after doing 200 points in 2 seasons and winning everything domestically. The problem with his style of play is it intense and players will only do it for a couple of seasons plus there main players are getting on a bit.
I was delighted watching this game seen them be smashed but the bigger picture is who stops Liverpool winning the title ? Nobody is probably the right answer
I agree, although I was hoping this would extend to Liverpool as well. They’ve been at it for almost as long but don’t seem to show nearly as many signs that they might be slowing down.Yeah over 2 legs. This was the first time in 680 games.

We've been at it for the same time City were: 2 seasons. We only got the 1 title due to 1 point difference.
It's now to be seen whether we can do what they couldn't and make it 3 seasons in a row.
One of theBluemoon quotes about Utd or Liverpool conceding 3 pens at home made me laugh though. I remember Utd conceding 3 at home to Liverpool no less in 2014. They really do have an 'everyone is conspiring against us' attitude don't they!
Why has Laporte not been starting for them? Is he still not match fit? If so why is he being put on the bench to start with?
Because that's the point isn't it. The player probably only fit enough to play 45 mins, it's not like you will expect them to play full 90 minutes and I guess better than having Stones.
So they went from signing Messi to now needing to rebuild the whole team. Pep has been found out just like Jose has. It just took a bit longer.
Pep said he only had 14 players to choose from. So a half-fit Laporte goes on the bench.

Nice to see some journalists calling out Pep and City for a change. Maybe he isn’t the footballing God after all.
'the nation-state club' Castles is a proper troll
City fans can cry me a fecking river moaning about injuries and rebuilds.
No doubt Ballbag will crawl out from under his rock to defend Fraudiola's honour.
Castles Vs Ballbag, let's see it!
I’ve always liked the way the Pep has played attacking fluid football, but I’ve never felt he’s the footballing god he’s made out to be.
His teams have always been high pressing and all about winning the ball back as quick as possibly as high up the pitch as possible. But as soon as teams figure out how to break that press, then it makes Pep’s teams look woeful at the back. It’s not even the defenders fault. Any defender who is constantly left exposed to defend one on one is going to struggle. The problem is Pep doesn’t know any other way.
The value of David Silva’s pressing off the ball in tandem with De Bruyne goes under the radar. They have lost that pressing intensity they used to have.
This will not be the only spanking City get this season. They are so exposed with their style and lack the ability to press like they used to.
Massive club !!!!
