By Willkiller Go To PostKeown just seriously suggested that if Arsenal lose, Wenger might dieHim and Garth Crooks together are always good for a laugh.
By Francis Go To PostDries Mertens has extended his contract with Napoli until 2020.because he played wide!
Sarri has done extraordinary work with him, he used to be incredibly inconsistent in his performances.
No, don't you dare make the Matrial connection.
By Oddinho Go To PostI haven't either. I'm just saying that I think if you want serious roles, you aren't going to get turned down just for being hot in the current climateI never thought her being hot was getting in the way. Being attractive is a pre-requisite in Hollywood no matter how talented you are.
Though to be perfectly honest I don't know if this is the case or not.
I was saying given the amount of time she's been on the scene, she's at risk of being type-casted because nearly all her roles have been eye-candy type of roles, even the small tv stuff she's done including the serious stuff (True Detective).

By NinjaFridge Go To PostSo Mendy to City is pretty much confirmed
I wonder if Levy will take the Walker deal to the end of the window like he normally does when we sell someone decent. Nothing to lose really, they have unlimited money and we already have Trippier (who came through City's academy lol).
03:30-21:30 fasting.
4 and a half hours to go. Starting to feel hungry. I guess now is a good time to start playing Civ 6.

Had a big laugh looking at Ederson Moraes' stats in FM and seeing that it's pretty much what Pep wants in a keeper.
Think it's a really weird move from City to bring Guardiola in and then just revert back to ridiculous spending sprees. Surely part of bringing him in was making use of the whole holistic product they've been trying to manufacture. By the time he'll start potentially using youth, he'll be like halfway through his time there.

So I'll follow your steps for now.

By the time he'll start potentially using youth, he'll be like halfway through his time there.Honestly I dont think it will happen if he doesnt stick half of prospects for loans next season.
His team is stacked enough to compete in the cups and league without having to give their prospects a chance.
If it's really true that Marco Silva didn't accept the Porto offer, that gives more strength to the rumours that they are going to have a much lower budget this season and are trying to sell a bunch of players.

By Vivalapizza Go To PostThe "holistic product" was and is complete bullshit.
I absolutely gather that now :lol, but weird to see them completely shun it. I guess their academy is going to be very Chelsea-esque? Grow, loan farm, sell for profit?

Anyway the same could happen to United with our prospects, but Jose seems to be keeping to his word in giving them a chance. I'm happy so far.
Funny that after all that's said about Guardiola, it's Jose that has played more youths this season.

I mean, I know all the lads who played last day will never play again :lol, but I expected it from Jose.
City didn't and don't have a team good enough for Guardiola to come in, tweak it, bring some youth players through and enforce with a few signings to take them from scraping 4th to winning the league and getting to the latter stages of the CL
And with the backing they have, if he thinks he needs 4 players per window, they might as well pay £60m for each of them instead of looking for cheaper options
There's really no need for them to take it slowly, especially as they have to assume he won't be there for a huge amount of time. Txiki has been dropping bollocks for years before Pep arrived, and it makes more sense to pay what it takes to fix them than to carry on with the holistic stuff in the hope that things will just click when the evidence suggests that they won't.

By n8 dogg Go To PostI absolutely gather that now :lol, but weird to see them completely shun it. I guess their academy is going to be very Chelsea-esque? Grow, loan farm, sell for profit?Who knows. It takes a long time to build and establish a productive academy. The thing is, City's academy was never a bad one. In fact it has consistently been quite good.
But the main lifeblood of any academy is for academy players to make it through to the first team, whether they stay there or not is less important. But the players need to get those opportunities. Currently it appears that Guardiola has zero interest in this, hard to say whether it's because the quality of the players isn't up to scratch or because he doesn't want to take the risk that comes with it.
By Hitch Go To PostCity didn't and don't have a team good enough for Guardiola to come in, tweak it, bring some youth players through and enforce with a few signings to take them from scraping 4th to winning the league and getting to the latter stages of the CLThere is nothing to carry on.

They have consistently spent £100m+ every summer since the takeover, with the exception or maybe one or two years when they got close.
By n8 dogg Go To PostI mean, I know all the lads who played last day will never play again :lol, but I expected it from Jose.I'll bet you Mitchell will get some play time. Harrop was alright but Mctominay was a disappointment.
Angel Gomes though, will probably take 2, 3 years to mature and I dont know if Jose will be our manager by then.
Gotta love the transfer season.
By Vivalapizza Go To PostAllegri is leaving?
Yes, Barca will announce him Monday.
By domino Go To PostAbyss fans, should we be excited about Perisic?
No
By Pennywise Go To PostWould love to get the grill out, but nobody around…Not allowed to grill on the balcony and my landlord lives in the same building. :(
So I'll follow your steps for now.
By Vivalapizza Go To PostAllegri is leaving?Totti man!
By domino Go To PostAbyss fans, should we be excited about Perisic?Inter's left winger? He's one of their best, for sure.
but then again, is that saying much? Such an odd choice if you go for him at this stage of his career
Next season is going to be insane, when you think about it competitively. It's going to be harder than ever to break into the top 4 - for everyone - let alone winning the leauge. Reckon it's gonna be a real nailbiter.
I want to see a proper title drama unfold again. Decided on the final day in heartbreaking fashion.

Heya lads, quite a week. Got back from florence this afternoon, beautiful city, some great food and wine. Being a groomsmen was great and enjoyed some alone time with the mrs in that setting.

Wenger is kicking the stool from underneath his feet if he is shoehorning those players into a 3-4-3

It's more like a string.
