Sterling and Mahrez on the bench with a front three attacking force as potent as a damp starter pistol At least it gave Grealish room to play....unlike last week when RS kept treading on his toes????

Yeah, the won 5-0 so I think we can safely say Pep played the right team. Even though Mr Boj is doubting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm obviously chuffed with the result but don't know whether it was down to us playing very good or Norwich being very awful. Maybe both. My point before the match is still extant. That front 3 won't cause Liverpool, United, Chelsea etc any sleepless nights. Jesus deservedly got MOM but that was due to his service and work rate. He didn't score and neither did Torres which is really what they were meant to do. We got an OG, followed by a lucky bounce off Grealish. Nothing further for another 40 minutes until Sterling came on for Torres and we looked a lot more threatening. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jellydog Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 Missed out on the #9 we were in need of, and instead ponied up $100m for Dandy Jack the winger when we already have oodles of them. I do hope the City brain trust is not considering Ronaldo. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The naughty side of me wants us to get Ronaldo cos of the comedy value. it would really infuriate United fans but from what I read last week, we have already told his agent that we aren't interested. As for Kane. I said from the start on here that I didn't want us to pay that kind of money for him and I said City wouldn't cave in to ludicrous Levy valuation. Our transfer strategy is that we put a value on a player with a bit of negotiation wriggle room and if it's not acceptable, we walk like we have done several times. Wonder if the Spurs fans will accept Kanes remarkable new loyalty to them!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The funny bit if there is any truth in the reports is that it will now cost Spurs another 100 grand per week for an improved contract for him. So not only did we stick 2 fingers up at super wheeler dealer Levy but we've cost him another 5.2 million quid a year ???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do you care about getting one over on some dude in an office? You've missed an opportunity to buy arguably the world's best striker and put your team up another level. But all you care about is getting one over on a guy in a suit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have clearly stated all along and not waivered one iota on my thoughts of the ridiculous money that Levy was demanding. I am therefore happy that we didn't stump it up and even happier that it has now cost the greedy git something on top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The thing is City will win most of their matches 2-3-4 nil without him.....all Kane does is add another one on. Not necessarily more points. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only time will tell if they miss a proper striker though....it's obvious Pep wanted him, so that says to me that he would be more than a luxury player. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
