Either way Kane is under no more pressure than any England striker of the past going into a WC. He does need to deliver, and if he doesn't the vultures will be out to get him. If you don't like it, don't play for England. Personally I couldn't care less. United over England every time. The best major tournaments are the ones which England don't qualify for. I'd be more than happy if he didn't play. It took Poch two months to restore the confidence in our England played after they got Hodged. No doubt it will be similar after Southgate's finished with them. And all in a country that should never have been awarded it, and a tournament that we will do little of merit.

Yeah, completely ignore every PL home game being a 41 000 sell-out in the last 15 years and pretty much every other cup home game selling out and focus on ONE game that wasnt a full capacity and come to a conclusion that Chelsea couldnt fill a 60 000 stadium !!!!!!!!!!

Not wanting to get too much involved in you're london tiff ongoing right now, but MY PERCEPTION as a football fan over many decades, is that Arsenal, Chelsea, Spurs and WHU are ALL BIG clubs so why bother with the 'we're bigger than you'.

Apart from the obvious Maine Rd error, you never know what we'd be doing and it is absolutely impossible to try to even speculate.

Bredbury Blue Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 (edited) Champers from Liverpool thread: "City are just as happy if they stop them playing for EPL rivals... ...Rodwell, Sinclair, Roberts and Stones prove my argument,..." I don't believe any club buys players to stop them playing for rivals any where in the world. Regarding the 4 players supposedly bought for that reason: Stones has played 68 games for City. He's currently lost out injury and to Vinny's return not Laporte as Stones only plays rightside and Laporte only plays left side. Sinclair and Rodwell were bought as bright young things by Mancini. Sinclair is a bit of a gypsy and has played at about a dozen clubs; he wasn't good enough for us. Rodwell was seen as another Kompany; centreback or defensive midfield but he was injured a lot he wasn't good enough for us. Roberts was a Pellegrini buy; not sure why he hasn't been given much of a chance. Edited April 29, 2018 by Bredbury Blue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless there's a big change in Iniesta's thinking there's no chance (I doubt City would be interested, but you never know). I think the China move awaits crossing a t and an i. Personally I'd like to see him go to the MLS. China is a money pit but not much else, whereas football in the states is growing bigger by the year.
