Glad to see one or two key players back. KDB and Foden still injured. Stones not yet fit but it’s coming. 5-0 now. Pity we didn’t have a fuller team last week!

21st August 2021 at 5:06 pm #183151AnonymousLOL Pagan π
I saw about 30 mins of the leeds v everton match. was alright. Didnt see any of the City V Norwich match but I had 5-0 in mind before the game. Shame we have to wait for more but I need to catch up on sleep anyway :p
Delighted with the performance and result for us today. We’re a step closer to being considered a proper threat I think. Really glad to see the lads get another game in before Chelsea, as top level players might have an easier time with our defence. It’s more minutes for VVD and also I guess Tsimikas, if he is to start the next match. I mean, you wouldnt rule it out now. Maybe Klopp won’t be panicking over Robbo returning early now? Of course, a better team will expose Tsimikas better, same goes for Trent but going forward, theyw ere both really good today.
Salah is going to hit high form any day now. He was so unlucky not to come away with a goal.

21st August 2021 at 5:08 pm #183152AnonymousAlso, delighted for Ings. His move to Villa has gotten off to a great start. Apparently his goal today was a cracker. Villa may have lost a great player in Grealish but it looks like they’ve spent at least some of the money well! I have always rated Ings very highly though. he just didnt suit the way we played. More of a classic striker than what Klopp wants, with a false 9 , or inside forward.

21st August 2021 at 5:46 pm #183153Watford took that corner a little for granted. Brilliant header by Duffy. Good start for the Seagulls.

21st August 2021 at 6:03 pm #183154AnonymousThey really did. It was essentially a free header. Im mainly watching for Sarr.

21st August 2021 at 6:14 pm #183155Yeah, some of the Watford players just not at the races and Brighton’s second exemplifies just that. Maupay Punishes.

21st August 2021 at 6:55 pm #183156A step in the right direction Adlab still with quality players to come back there’s a reason that City are favourites and with or without any more signings City will be in the mix for the title at the end of the season and anyone with ambitions of winning it will probably have to finish above them.

21st August 2021 at 9:11 pm #183158Exactly nine, city could nearly field two teams that could win the league
Not sure Kane will go now as city wonβt go to 150m by the looks of it

22nd August 2021 at 12:14 am #183160Sean, pretty sure the two keepers on the bench is now a UEFA requirement, certainly was the case during the Euros.
Tsimikas is some player! Robertson, who?

22nd August 2021 at 12:15 am #183161AnonymousKinda glad that City are not going to over-pay for Kane. Levy is being way too crafty in thinking he can get 150m. it’ll come back to bite him too, if City decide that he’s insulting thme with this carry on.
If I were Kane, I’d be going mental. 100m is a good fee for him. They should accept it and be glad that there is a team willing to pay that now because there won’t be next summer.

22nd August 2021 at 12:51 am #183162Mistra, are you being facetious? Grealish MoM? He did absolutely nothing noteworthy in the game apart from scoring a really flukey goal. Hell, if that is qualification for genius status then the league is full of them.

22nd August 2021 at 7:04 am #183164I also thought Grealish had a very good game even the commentators said so, he was doing nearly all the creating for City while he was on and City did win by 5. Ings is such an underated striker really should be playing for a top 4 club. Don’t underestimate Arsenal today they tend to do well against most top teams most times.

22nd August 2021 at 7:45 am #183166AnonymousIngs is held back by 2 things:
1) His 2 massive injuries.
2) His failure to make it mat Liverpool.Both of them are more perceptive issues than real ones. The injuries were just bad luck. As I said before then, he didnt work out at Liverpool only because he didn’t fit into the system that Klopp plays. That’s all.
I still remember willing him to work there, as I have always thought he was a top striker. So pleased that things are working out as they should for him but you’re right, he should be playing for a CL side. I was thinking that when Spurs sold Kane, they’d get Ings in but Villa snapped him up pretty sharpish and honestly, well done to them. It’s one thing to get a big amount for a player, it’s another to spend that money well, especially when everyone knows how much you’ve added to your coffers.
Sometimes I still wake up screaming about how we wasted that Torres -> Chelsea money on Andy Carroll… Of course, we also signed Suarez that window but word was they wanted them to play together. Do we believe them? I dunno, toss a coin TBH.

22nd August 2021 at 7:52 am #183167Foxy, two Keepers on the bench was a UEFA requirement for the Euros it’s not a PL requirement and if it was a PL requirement teams bar Liverpool yesterday in the first two games are ignoring it.π

22nd August 2021 at 8:44 am #183169Ye foxy for the euros mate but not pl. cheers nine, I just think yday we were missing 3 players and origi and shaquri are being sold. I still would have out Gordon or someone on the bench
River, arsenal are capable of pulling a good result out of the bag but they will need to be really at their best level even to draw with Chelsea. Is Kante fit? Chelseaβs most key player
Looking forward to that game
I actually think Southampton will be fighting relegation. They have let some key players go . Utd will hammer them today

22nd August 2021 at 8:46 am #183170Mak, I think ings is ideal for our number 8 role mate. Works very hard, presses , scores goals and links up the play. Problem was ge was being played out of position and could not get in the team cause of Bobby
Excellent player.

22nd August 2021 at 8:50 am #183171Teams that have 3 or 4 easier type of games at the start have a great advantage for so many reasons. Somehow it doesn’t feel fair, I don’t know if the computer who creates the fixtures could possibly mix it up a bit according to seedings or any other way so it’s more even.
