I thought the same at first. Then remembered Mahrez did the same at Leicester. Still don't like it though. Will he throw his toys out if he doesn't get picked every game, cos at City nobody is guaranteed a start as rotation is the key to staying in as many comps as possible.

Apparently we are going to put an improved bid in for Matheus Nunes from Wolves. We offered £47m but Wolves want £60m. He's gone on strike apparently to try and force the move

Yeah t'was a schoolboy error that was. He won't be doing that again. In fairness though, it was Walker who kept the ball alive and then skinned the defender for our second goal.

It doesn't get renamed every year Ken. If you remember there was an old thread (as with all the other teams) but they were clogging up the system so JonathanFairfield created new topics for all the active teams and named them all ***********2019 so that you could tell the difference between the old and new topics

Yep. I love the fella to bits but he should either commit or go. Every season it's the same thing

Yeah but apparently there is a buy out clause in his contract, which won't help to douse the flames of uncertainty ????

That's not how employment law works. Otherwise we'd have a whole new bunch of train drivers etc by now

He went to Lorient but he's not yet made his debut. After so long out he's probably nowhere near being match fit

The prosecution service dropped the case because the key witness was bought off decided not to give evidence. We all heard the audio and saw the pictures. If these were fake, or staged etc then that should be made public and the person who made them should be prosecuted for wasting police time. Why hasn't that happened? Even United employees where threatening to go on strike and many think that is a major factor in the decision to let him go. It would be a major PR disaster. The problem is, there is a lot of smoke about this and nothing has been cleared up. It would have been better to go to court and get cleared once and for all in the same way Mendy did. Until something further is brought to the publics attention that proves his innocence, there will always be doubt

Pep Guardiola to miss upcoming Man City matches after back surgery Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola will recover in Barcelona after emergency surgery on a severe back issue Pep Guardiola will miss at least two Manchester City matches after undergoing emergency surgery on a longstanding back problem. The Catalan flew out to Barcelona for a successful operation after suffering from severe back pain recently, and will spend a few weeks recovering there before returning after the international break. That means that for the Sheffield United and Fulham matches at least, assistant Juanma Lillo will take control of the team.

He (and subsequently the club) would have suffered abuse on a scale not previously seen, week in, week out. Sponsors and high profile supporters would have dumped United so as not to be be viewed as supporting him. Both the club and he knew that and so took the right way out

He struggles to get his own predictions in on time, never mind doing anyone else's. Oh and he's useless with IT. He'd break the unbreakable spread sheet in 5 minutes

Chuffed with that result. Was gonna be tricky to start, regarding fitness levels and injuries but with the FA not supporting any English teams who play in europe, you have to get on with it and dig in. Agree about Rodri. Used to be so solid but Dias was there to cover and hardly anything got passed him As for Foden. Difficult to give a quick summary on his performance except stunning. Absolutely stunning

First trophy of the season in the bag. Might as well win it if you have to play in it. Not looking forward to the World Club Cup or whatever it's called. Bang in the middle of the season and takes up about 10 or 11 days

Looks like they have all got the heat. "Referee Simon Hooper, video assistant ref Michael Sailsbury and assistant VAR Richard West have all been omitted from this weekend's Premier League fixtures after dropping a clanger during Manchester United's win over Wolves."

EPL Comp 2023/24 season
Hi all Sorry but not going to run the comp this year. It's a lot of work and there wasn't the usual uptake in numbers. Nobody else offered either, so cancelled. If the uptake is there next year will take another look at doing it Cheers

22 minutes into the new season and KdB out already. For how long I don't know ???? Apart from that. A fairly routine win but at least Burnley tried to have a go

In so far OwlSeesAll Jockstar Fulhamster MrMuddle Seppius Champers swbaggies keithsimmonds Thaiwrath Smokie36 Seppius has pulled out. Not really worth running it with so few numbers, it's too time consuming just for 9 people. Unless someone else wants to have a go or we get more participants I don't really see the point this year
