Bredbury Blue Posted August 11, 2018 Share Posted August 11, 2018 (edited) Carmine "Thing is, none of us can remember you pulling up BB on a single occasion. Not once!! Perhaps pay equalattention to him rather than spending so much time on us. Theres a reason a number of us felt compelled to block him. His trolling is constant and daily, hence we've blocked him." Thing is, none of us can remember MrBj pulling up you Carmine on a single occasion. I have a theory why he hasn't pulled up you or i up once, as follows. It's because this is a football forum for opinions and banter. You call it trolling. WE - and i reckon the majority see it my way - call it banter. If i post something about Spurs you disagree with you start crying and call it trolling. When somebody posts something about City i disagree with i respond, usually with facts, disagreeing with them. Try it sometime. You and your 2 spurs buddies have spent more time than any other group of fans on the City forum trying to score points (trolling you call it) about our youth (given up on that one in recent times i see), our "buying the premier", our spending, etc,. Fair enough i say, its a football forum, but it appears NO ONE is allowed on the Spurs forum doing similar and if they do its "Troll! Troll! Troll!".

In my defence i don't think i post about net spend, other than to defend on posts about City's spending. Think you are mistaking me for others who are always on about net spend on here. Come to think about it i think its your 2 Spurs buddies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's 30mil. 60 for Mahrez and we sold quite a few of the youth/second string and made 30mil We spent 64m.

Some of them are just downright stupid and of course he follows up with the wit and candour of a seven year old whilst claiming to be a bit thick and not understand. Got no time for that kinda thing here. Aw Ronnie, and i thought you were an easy going character, the forum self-appointed wag. Never mind, I'll be continuing to reply to your crappy posts.

Bredbury Blue Posted August 11, 2018 Share Posted August 11, 2018 What is Manchester City's strongest line-up? https://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/man-city-news-strongest-lineup-15013130 Not easy but I'd probably go with: Ederson Walker Stones Kompany *Laporte/Otamendi Mendy KdB Fernandinho Merlin Jesus Agueo *Undecided So difficult to selecta starting XI: Bernardo, Sterling and Sane all need a start.

Bredbury Blue Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 Was very pleased Zinchenko didn't move on. He's a talented lad who can play many positions/roles, very comfortable on the ball, a good lad to have around who I'm sure will get plenty of minutes this season. Is he good enough to replace someone full time in the starting XI? Like Delph and others, probably not, but definitely good enough to contribute as a squad player, and the current 16m valuation Wolves offered will be more next close season. I like him.

Bredbury Blue Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 Arsenal away; a tough start. A fixture we don't like and until recently always suffered in. Did a quick check and we've only won there 7 times since 1970 though we now don't seem to fear this fixture (only Anfield these days still has a bizarre curse over us).

Bizarre curse, it’s called being beaten by a better team on the day, again and again and again. It’s totally plausible. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why when we're clearly a better team have we not got a result at Liverpool when we've got it everywhere else; that's the bizarre part. That was the 'curse' i was referring to.

Bredbury Blue Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 Ederson, Walker, Stones, Laporte, Mendy, Fernandinho (C), Gündogan, Bernardo, Mahrez, Sterling, Agüero Subs | Bravo, Kompany, De Bruyne, Sané, Otamendi, Jesus, Foden Not keen on that midfield 3.

jellydog Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 Three points is nice, but way too sloppy much of the game. Experimenting is OK, but I surely hope Pep will insert KDB and Spanish Dave from the get go more often than not. Not one of Fernandinho's better games as well. Here's hoping Pep cracks the whip in practice this week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
