Today’s Games 2023-2024

[Wonder Boyo]

Apologies, it was just a reflex

Grrrr! I even resisted the temptation (and it was strong) in my last post to say, please please tell me now, not another night of Duran Duran puns.

 

[Wolf316]

Please not another night of Duran Duran puns.

Unfortunately the mix is notorious for them

 

[GoldenHorseshoe]

For all their possession, city are ponderous.

 

[WolvesAndCows]

Havertz booked for another dive. I'd give him a 10 match ban

 

[Wonder Boyo]

If City don't buck up their ideas Pep might need to bring on Plug in the second half to save the day.

Oh well. Put your tracksuit top back on Plug.

 

[Watfordfc]

Luton done most of the attacking tbf but not created much .

Almost nothing.

 

[Monketron]

All that hard work by Villa that half undone by a player not wanting to get hit by the ball and turning away. I'd be furious!

What is the point of a defensive wall if it parts like the River Jordan.

 

[Royal wolf]

Grealish isn’t direct enough, slows everything down.

 

[Perton Wolf]

Rodri is so, so good.

 

[Sussex Wolf]

Think that’s game over.

 

[Royal wolf]

Rodri is so, so good.

Everything looks so easy for him. Ultimate midfielder

 

[Sussex Wolf]

Think that’s game over.

Now definitely game over!

 

[Skrilla]

Phil Foden... Southgate will still find a way to put him on the bench

 

[RosehillWolf]

Fantastic hatrick for Foden. What a player

 

[SuperGran]

Beating City isn’t for everyone

 

[Frank Lincoln]

Phil Foden... Southgate will still find a way to put him on the bench

Unfortunately, you are probably right.

 

[RosehillWolf]

I don’t think Villa have been that bad , I wonder how many City will put past us ?

 

[Netherton Wolf]

Superb hat-trick

 

[steve vena]

Foden world class .

 

[Wonder Boyo]

Big guns coming on for City (Plug).

 

[Sussex Wolf]

Beating City isn’t for everyone

Somehow I think we may find them a different proposition at the end of the season away, than early in the season at home!

 

[Watfordfc]

Man City doing ok without Haaland or KDB then!

Foden Player of the year ?

 

[steve vena]

Plug coming on... ****!

 

[Parkfieldswolf]

Man City have so many good players it’s quite embarrassing the ease they can brush teams aside. On another note I know he’s winning things but Grealish just isn’t the same player is he as when he was at Villa. He was exciting and was always looking to take players on but he seems content to do the easy stuff now and takes very few chances. I get it’s how Pep wants him to play but from a purists point of view it’s disappointing to see. I like to see players take on opposition but there’s not so much of it these days. Maybe that’s why players like Neto is valued so highly. I just feel going at someone taking them on at speed lifts the crowd and sets the tone.

 

[GoldenHorseshoe]

The Plug

Yes but is fun until then. I wouldn’t mind them winning if it stops Liverpool or arsenal winning anything

 

[Sussex Wolf]

Actually I think I’d like Arsenal to win it for a change. I don’t like them, but better than Liverpool, and I’m struggling to get past Man City’s buying the league.

 

[GoldenHorseshoe]

Big guns coming on for City (Plug).

Or big gums?

 

[northnorfolkwolf]

Fantastic hatrick for Foden. What a player

I'm trying to think of a better English youngster ever than Foden? Gasgoine possibly?

MGW?

Bellingham.

 

[SingYourHeartsOut]

Hang on, it took God to part the River Jordan! (Although He did the Red Sea as well, so it must have been relatively easy). Are you suggesting God is now working for City? Is His salary covered under FFP?

 

[brianm]

The lad is 23....just about his prime for an attacker. A couple months younger than Pedro Neto.

Bellingham is 20.

 

[Skrilla]

Foden is a wonderful player, but Bellingham is firmly in that "generational" bracket, which often gets overused as a term nowadays. You could play Bellingham in every position on the pitch and he'd still be the best on it.

 

[WolvesAndCows]

Lingard

 

[SuperGran]

Lingard

great prospect

 

[WolvesAndCows]

Foden Player of the year ?

Him or Watkins
