You must chip this one in sha ni

What if we start performing better? What if we win the el-classico next week? I know alot of fans are dead set on seeing the back of Koeman but if we had a turnaround in terms of performance, I don't see why we need to get rid of him. He should be judged by the current performance of the team, not his past mistakes. Of course, if there is a better manager out there, who is available, then no problem.

But for me, I will wish the upturn in performance continues regardless of who the manager is. Good performance of the team is more important than who the manager is.

Spurs not Chelsea. Intelligent people learn from mistakes, but isn't attacking football what we want? And his Ajax team were just inexperienced, if he gets an experienced team like ours they will control the game better. Klopp used to play that kind of game.

Solskjær: "Every team will go through a patchy period, we are in one now, we know that — the coaching staff we have got is absolutely amazing, the attention to detail, training sessions, preparations. I don't think I could ask for better."

Joezinho:
I heard the failed Gollum is whining man utd failed to sign a midfielder. That man is cursed .
Even Pep who's been backed to the hilt didn't get the striker he wanted this summer. He just got on with it, turned Ferran Torres into a false 9 which worked well and they're comfortably in a title race.

Liverpool fans were kicking off this summer about the lack of signings and their fans were genuinely worried about United overtaking them again long term. Did Klopp whine about it? No. He got on with it and they look a frightening team right now.

When Tuchel came in last season, they didn't have a single competent goalscorer. Their highest goalscorer was their PK taker Jorginho with something like 7 goals. Did he complain about it and say wait until I get a striker next season? No. He dragged Chelsea back into a CL place in the league and won the CL itself.

That's what elite managers do. Thats the difference between top managers and Ole. They find solutions whilst Ole finds problems to mask his own deficiencies.

The game against Liverpool at the weekend will determine alot going forward and I hope we lose. Having said that we need to beat Atlanta any which way.

Was Torres playing forward for Spain before joining City?

Fabinho is a midfielder that has also played defence is that an acceptable reason

Jodera:
Match never finish na

raumdeuter:
Sterling and Torres in forward position yet you are complaining that Klopp had to play Fabinho and Henderson in defence

raumdeuter:
Aguero was a key player until Pep decided to use a system without him. Pep was able to adjust to losing his key players like KdB and Aguero winning the league easily. Maybe Pep too should give the excuse that Liverpool was able to win the league because Fernandinh was playing CB

raumdeuter:
Before last season if they ask you to name Citys best players wont you name Aguero?
As at beginning of last season if they ask you to name the best 5 City player or even best 3, wont you name Aguero?
Pep won the title in a stroll despite playing without his top players in KdB and Aguero
If Liverpool had their CBs available but not Salah or Mane, you will still complain, if it was without Allison and Fabinho you will still complain

raumdeuter:
Point is if Liverpool had lost Salah and Mane you will complain. If they lose anyone you will complain. City lost their 2 best players and managed to win yet we are saying losing defenders is the excuse for Liverpool going 5 games without being able to score
KdB is Citys best player and was lost, its the equivalent of Liverpool losing Salah I am sure you will come to complain too
Bayern is better than City everyone knows that. Look at UEFA coeffcient of teams and see where both are rated

raumdeuter:
Lyon got to the CL semi finals while finishing midtable in the French league. Chelsea won the CL while finishing 6th in the league. knockout competition




All these are just flimsy excuses, Was City injury free last season? Last season City lost KdB, Aguero. Played Foden as main striker yet strolled to the title. If Liverpool had lost Salah and Mane then what will we be saying

raumdeuter:
How many times has City strolled to the title and Bayern is even a better team than City

Panther7:
Xavi scans a lot, he was at the heart of Barca's possession. Amaka, Fred and ghostimonay should watch him and learn from him.

Shaw
Smalling
Herrera
Fellaini
Depay
Lingard
Martial
Young
Valencia
Fred
Mkhitaryan
Lukaku

BlueRayDick:
I disagree with this submission. Despite teams playing low block against city as u claimed last season they won 27 out of 38 matches.....Bayern in the bundesliga won 24 out of 34 matches ; that's almost the same win-to-games played ratio if u do the maths.

The fact that bayern dominates and wins against English team most times they meet shows the "bundesliga is crap." mantra is just banter and not a factual statement.

Saying bayern will not have it easy against Chelsea on two legs sounds more like a wish/prayer. I mean bayern humiliated Chelsea the last time they met. Even arsenal as at last season did a double against this same Chelsea na.

I understand u personally don't rate bayern, but perception is not the same as reality.

Once Fred is involved that is what happens. Like someone else has taken over the account. LMAO
