If Alonso becomes Parisien - we could look at Enrique. This it the level of boutique we should be shopping in. You want to get the best from top players… This is the level.

Utd will get it right eventually, much like we did with Klopp. Let's just sit back and enjoy the circus while it lasts.

Well they're doing a lot better than last season table position wise

think they could challenge for top4 next season if they improve midfield / defense 2-3 players, attack is pretty decent.

I really like Enrique, style of football, and seems to be a good guy. There were stories that he was almost definitely going to Utd, which was a bit unnerving, since I would like him at Anfield, and think he will bring success to any club he goes to. But since then PSG have announced he is very happy there and not moving. Who knows. It would be a bit strange if Alonso went to Paris and Enrique came here.

How is Trent doing at the moment?
Haven't heard much news about him recently.

Newcastle v City ITV

hate watching Semenyo play for another club, would've been perfect for us either covering salah on the right or starting at LW wonder if we was in a title chase we'd have got him and guehi.

He's not doing great. He's not had a lot of playing time, his performances for the most part haven't been stellar, and the Madrid fans haven't taken to him. They haven't seen enough from him in an attacking sense to mitigate his defensive frailties.

He is currently out injured for a couple months. There is also speculation that Madrid want to sell him.

Great chance there for Newcastle they create a lot that way as we used to under Jurgen and why we do t under Slot

Play out to a player left, one pass into the middle one pass immediately to release a player on the right or a switch/diagonal immediately from left to right

That’s how to do it, always has been and why 4 or 5 passes at slow tempo to go from left to right or right to left constantly sees us struggle to create chances under Slit this season

We should try and loan him paying a fraction of his wages

Top play here by City thry have 3 not 5 on Newcastles last line they have 3 outside the area on the right side of the pitch working it looking to release one of the 3 on the line so if it breaks down they have 4 v 2 to quickly win it back

Who do you want to win tomorrow night in the game Salah v Sadio?
I think Senegal are slightly the better side, and they have the indian sign over Egypt in recent years. But a Egypt - Morocco final would be like an arab version of the old firm derby.

Should have gone for Semenyo in the summer after landing the title especially as he can play either side and we sold Diaz and Nunez

Interesting fact Nunez’s goal and assist record for us was better than Gakpo’s and he started a fair few in the left

Semenyo puts City ahead on the Toon… Goal made by Doku….

So much better attacking options than us, where did it all go wrong ? =(

Counting on salah for too long and selling diaz I guess & Not replacing him & Jota passing and obviously he could play outwide...... didn't really replace him either, just got 2 no9's

[Kev0909]

0-2 Semenyo

Fuck offffffffff FSG lol

Edit think it's off-side VAR going mad

Joke of a decision btw

An on-field review has been suggested for a subjective offside call.

So, referee Chris Kavanagh will decide...

The VAR feels Haaland has interfered with Pope!

Yep who's bright idea not to replace diaz and only have gakpo as the LW?

Madness, so many weird things in the summer, I don't understand, hughes etc can go, sorted the LB position and no9 that's about it got weaker elsewhere, & a kid CB...
