Consigliere Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 Yeah, I maintain my stance that there are only two teams capable of winning the league and those are City and Liverpool. City have been gathering momentum and look a real threat now - Guardiola has sorted out their defence and the team looks much more stable now than they did at the start of the season or even during large parts of last season.

Heartofice Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 They definitely look much improved. I would worry about them up front, KDB looked good in that false 9 role but he also didn't have his shooting boots on. If Aguero ever comes back into the side and recaptures his old form then they could be favourites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Consigliere Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 Aguero has recovered from injury and returned to training a while ago (before the league game against United in mid December). I think Guardiola is just being extra careful with him. Jesus is back as well so City's options up front are looking better for the second half of the season.

BigFatCoward Posted January 12, 2021 Share Posted January 12, 2021 Of course we are going to give Sheff Utd their first win. When Derby got 11 points I'm sure 4 of them were against us. Bruce is a pile of shite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daemon the Leaner Posted January 12, 2021 Share Posted January 12, 2021 Now I want us to win but not for us to go top of the league, but for Burnley to go down. Jesus they are so annoying. And also to say STOP THE COUNT after the game, yes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I question how Bruce is training his side if he refuses to even encourage them attack against the team who haven’t won a single league match all season. I mean why even bother to turn up?

Daemon the Leaner Posted January 12, 2021 Share Posted January 12, 2021 That's a lucky but deserved goal for Pogba. Man ran the show with a typical box-to-box peformance. Shame he hasn't done that more often in 4 years. He's had many moments of brillance for us in that period but there are very few games where you can say he was the MOTM. Martial was also quite good today... but still can't score. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Consigliere Posted January 12, 2021 Share Posted January 12, 2021 Nervy last few minutes but a comfortable game otherwise. Should have won by a bigger margin - ruling out Maguire's goal was absurd. The ref had a stinker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Horse Named Stranger Posted January 13, 2021 Share Posted January 13, 2021 So picking off Frankfurt's front three has not really paid off for the poaching clubs thus far, with the notable exception of Milan and Ante Rebic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hereward Posted January 13, 2021 Share Posted January 13, 2021 I realise that I’m entering dangerous territory here, as they’ll probably win the title over relegation fodder Liverpool, but I wonder if Guardiola is approaching Thatcher levels of certainty about his infallibility.

A Horse Named Stranger Posted January 13, 2021 Share Posted January 13, 2021 And Kiel has forced Bayern into extra time. And it's time for the penalties. And Bayern's exited the German Cup in the second round against second tier team Kiel. Happy for Fin. Who scored the goal to equalize Bayern's first goal, and scored the final penalty.

The Sunland Lord Posted January 14, 2021 Share Posted January 14, 2021 What a shite performance that was by Tottenham. Jose is being paid 15 m pounds to sit back on 1-0 against Fulham. I actually thought Fulham would turn the game around completely even while losing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Consigliere Posted January 14, 2021 Share Posted January 14, 2021 I really don't understand why Mourinho chooses to be this negative. This ultra-negative mindset is the difference between current Mourinho and the first decade or so of his career when he was among the top 2 or 3 best managers in the world. Spurs controlled possession in the 1st half and were by far the better side. They created numerous very good chances and could have had 3 or 4 goals while remaining compact in defence. All he had to do was continue with the same gameplan in the 2nd half and Spurs would have won comfortably; instead he chose to sit back and hope for a 1-0 win at home against a team in the relegation zone. What an upset in the DFB Pokal. Holy shit. It's not like Bayern were even playing their reserves either. Too bad Holstein Kiel couldn't have fans in the stadium to soak up this historic win.
