JohnBullMySon:
Which of the goals conceded against Sierra Leone was due to sloppiness? Ter Stegen conceded eight against Bayern, does it make him a poor keeper?

You should know that good keepers are not judged by conceded goals but by quality of saves. He made good saves against Tunisia, against Cape Verde and against CAR. He might not be an outstanding keeper yet, but here we judge him too brutally and yet make excuses for Uzoho. Pound for pound he is clearly better than Uzoho.
Uzoho and Maduka are no talents. It is best Pesserio throw that position open and do proper scouting for talented goalkeepers across Nigeria and smaller leagues across board and bring them in and work on them.

Maduka is good. Una no jus like am.
I have watched football long enough to know a good goalkeeper when I see one. The boy haven't made any outstanding save in the national team while he conceeds cheap goals against Sierra Leone and Liberian home based players.
Maduka will be terribly exposed when he moves to Watford. He should have rejected that move if he had sense.

Uzoho shouldn't have spilled that
Why won't he spill it? He is not a talented goalkeeper. This bunch is the worst set of goalkeepers we have every produced to a major tournament.

I swear, he'll be safer in the hands of prison officers in kirikiri than in the hands of youths. I advice him to jejely come out from hiding and hand himself over to the government for prosecution which should be televised live like Oputa panel.

If boys catch am by themselves, the story no go sweet at all. He is now officially a moving target.

Prison will be the last place a rogue police officer will be safe.
Inmates, both the innocent and hardened criminals will tear him apart in double quick time.
The best he can do is to go the way of sniper. Atleast it will be painless compared to what will be in store for him in prison.

The public have focused so much on Tacha thereby giving Mercy a free ride. Hypothetically, if the tables turned and Frood picked up iron to strike Omotshola, I'm damn sure he would have been disqualified.

Guardiola does not balance books because he met an aging squad unlike Liverpool that can buy Clyne today and sell him tomorrow. Manchester City buy and keep players long term. Many run out their contracts with the club which is a sign of healthy and sound management unlike the way the media spins it to justify gung-ho buying and selling.

In other words City is a buying club. Buy, buy, buy, buy.
Why the denials?

And spent a fortune on Van Dijk and Allison. He should have plucked.
That's how it should be. You groom players and then go for quality additions. The hallmark of a good manager.

Guardiola was not brought to groom players but delivered titles. He has done well for now despite facing challenges like players aging and running out of contracts.

But that's why I have been saying. He was brought to deliver titles with a huge wad of cash reserves. He didn't have to balance any books or sell his best players to fund transfers. He's had it that easy.
This is exactly the reason why I believe Klopps have made much more impact than him.

If Klopp has the midas touch, he should not have bought the likes of Matip and Van Dijk and groomed his own.
He plucked Arnold and Gomez from the academy didn't he?

And Guardiola after losing Five defenders did not have the right. undecided

If indeed he had the midas touch like you think, he should have groomed a couple of players from the City academy. Guys like Tosin Aderabayo didn't even get a look in. A good manager will give chance and groom youth players then add boost the group with quality additions, just like Klopp.
But no, oga Pep binned everybody and went haywire with the check book.

But Pep has dominated Klopp in the domestic scene hands down besides Klopp spending a fortune and by Pep was clearly robbed off the Champions League this season. Either way, Pep has broken records in the England Klopp can only dream off.
Of course Pep broke records in England. I doubt any manager have spent half a billion within a 3 year span.

I haven't checked but I want to believe Klop and Liverpool were responsible for knocking out Man city from the Champions league last season.
So much for Guardiola's dominance over Klopp.

And he has 2 champions league finals to show for it. Pep spent half a billion and still yet to hack it past the quarter finals.

Not a blank check.
How much have Pep spent since arriving at City? How much have he sold to recuperate some funds and balance books, you know like every other team.
If he doesn't have to balance books, then he has a blank check.
That's my take.

Keep in mind Klopp has spent over £380m building his squad. Not as lightweight as you guys want to paint him.
But in that time, he has totally revived the careers of presumed dead weights like Henderson and Milner. Brought through players like Gomez and Arnold from the academy. Plucked Robertson from relative obscurity from a relegated Hull City or something and turned him to world class full back.
All these he achieved before spending on top players like VVD and co.
This is what I mean by solid management, the ability to mix it up and achieve success. That is why I strongly believe he has made more impact than Pep.
Thank you

Guardiola was not the coach during the time of their plays. The point is we lost four full backs and replaced with three. Accept you blank check theory is false and move on.

Even after Klopp has spent much, I will not use the players he signed to run him down because he is a brilliant manager.

Finito.

My theory of Guardiola spending is false? What's your point?

Liverpool already had Clyne, Moreno and Lovren (who was Liverpool's most expensive defender before Van Dijk.

So they could afford to get young players and groom them in years. Especially Arnold.

Manchester City lost Demichelis, Sagna, Zabaleta, Clichy, Kolarov and had to spend to rebuild. We lost four full backs and bought three. How that equates to blank check buying is mysterious.

The fact is very clear but you have decided to dwell on the false narrative.
Why didn't Man city groom players while Sagna, Zabaleta and co were there?

Danilo is 30 million, total 130million

Not up to Allison + Van diyk

Allison and VVD are not full backs.
Liverpool spent just £8m on full backs :

Arnold =free
Gomez=free
Robertson =8m
While Man city spent €150m acquiring Danilo, Walker and Mendy.

Average players like?

Van Diyk - 75 million
Allison - 60 million
Keita- 50 million
Fabinho - 50 million
Salah - 40 million

Man city record signing 50 million, Liverpool record signing 75 million
Who is buying the league?

Man city may not have broken a world record but I reckon spending 150M on full backs must be somewhere close to a world record.
Any other team in history spent that much on full backs? Your guess is as good as mine.

Iheanacho was not prepared to wait. Last season, Zinchenko spent a long time on the bench. This season, he is so much improved.

The young players are leaving because of the quality of the first team. That is a props to Guardiola. Sancho can be valued for a billion. Bring him to City today, he will seat on the bench for Bernardo and Sterling.

Finito.

He may have been encouraged to wait if Pep didn't go for Jesus. Don't you think?
