Except we got Wolsburg who are twice as strong as anyone else in that pot.

Which is bad news in itself if he is going to strengthen one of our PL rivals

Noone cares about city no matter how well they do, last time they won the league more people were interested in Liverpool imploding than City winning the title.
Its like no matter what they do, no one actually recognizes their achievements

Fuck off Nobhead. Everyone loved it when we nicked the league off you cunts on the last day of the season.
United will slip out of the group stage after just scraping into the champions league in the arsenal way. lvg will get the sack at the end of the season and the spiral of mediocracy will continue. All this happening while rag cunts pine for the ferguson years again.

If City can keep Aguero fit (biggest task), and Yaya continues his fantastic start, I see no reason why they can't go through that group. Juventus have lost Pirlo, Vidal and Tevez. They've brought in some cracking players too though but I wouldn't bet against City winning all home games and at least one away.

I love Rick trying to throw his weight around after City's brilliant start to the season he wasn't like this when they looked, to use his word, mediocre last season

Rick's a glory hunter, so it's hardly surprising Wasn't it Liverpool before? They do have a chance of glory though But so do the other big teams in England.

No I was at the matches watching it for myself. Last season we were terrible, I still went to the matches though, and posted on here saying just how bad we were.

Were you dressed up like one of the blue seats, like the rest of the die hard city fans were?

Shaw (and Darmian) have been the best full backs this season so far imo, so that's a massive blow for United. For Shaw too obviously, as he was showing his potential. Rojo out at LB now? Who does that leave as cover? Jones? Testing times ahead.

Also, I had to laugh at just how shocking Bony was, and at the even more shocking decision to ditch Dzeko. Aguero is injury prone, and Dzeko is a proven goalscorer. A very good one! Bony was good for Swansea but better than Edin? I don't think so.

it's grim.
That tackle was shocking too, ball or not, he was not in control of that tackle, went in at a hell of a speed.

As a fan you'll say it's shocking. Arsenal fans thought the shawcross tackle was shocking/attempted murder. It wasn't. He was a split second off, beaten by a quicker player.
Last night's tackle wasn't shocking. It wasn't great, but it wasn't that bad a tackle, just very unlucky for Shaw. Should of probably been a booking though!
