Ambition. Mix in some academy products and you lot are heading in the right direction. It's easy to have ambition when you have a family worth of a trillion dollars though isn't it?

I think there is more as well. Apparently he's not that popular in the dressing room. He left Barcelona so he could be the main man and he has taken it to far. So I've read anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucas 3,827 Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 Just got up after my night shift and flicked on BT Sport for a bit. City's kids playing away to Napoli's kids. No joke, some of the best football you'll see at that level. Even better than some senior games, not over reacting. City 5-0 up at HT. It is a joy to watch.

Yes, you may cherry pick some of the better pool of youngsters from others but you're developing that talent further in your set up, it's to be admired. I wouldn't usually watch this level of football to be honest but I'm hooked. That was quality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I think sometimes it's easy to not notice the way teams do in the academy but I think it shows how well developed these youngsters are doing. Future is certainly bright I hope.

Free flowing and they have a naivety at times and do things which a lot of older players are scared to. That man city player who scored Englands fifth goal in the final is quality.

It was fitting that it fell for Foden, Golden Ball winner as player of the tournament, and he accepted it with aplomb, taking a deft touch before rifling past Alvaro with power and precision. https://www.independent.co.uk/sport/football/international/england-win-under-17-world-cup-vs-spain-phil-foden-rhian-brewster-gibbs-white-a8025086.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everybody always blames foreigners but players in other countries go abroad to learn. English players need to do that more. Jack Wiltshire is a good example. He would probably get less injuries in spain because of the climate and the way they play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 2, 2017 Share Posted November 2, 2017 Richard keys has suggested that man city through the fa cup final against wigan to get rid of Mancini today. Not sure of he has any real evidence for that though. I don't think it any secret that he is hard to work with. A lot of players have said that. Tactically quite good but his man management skills are quite bad by most accounts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
