Dembele value gone up 20 million even though no club in England think he’s good enough
Champions League Knockouts (12 Aug - 23rd Aug)

He was. No excuses.
Winner is better. Always. If you take 1000 matches in all 1000 better team is a winner. It is pretty simple. Winner=better team (in that moment of course)
How so?
They were still 9 points behind 4th team. Lyon this season were so good they managed 0 wins in 2 months.
Between 27th Aug and 26th October 8 games 0W 4D 4L.
That's how fecking bad they were.
...and you need to take your tinted glasses off.
Didn't answer the question about next year either, I'm officially starting the KDB is off rumours.
The side he picked was a bit disrespectful.
There it is! The predicted "I told you so" post. That's actually pretty funny. And you still don't even understand what the argument was about.
You just dont get it.
Please actually watch the games before having a debate on football.
For 24 more hours. Mind you.Well that couldn’t of gone much better. Lovely couple of nights of football. And we’re the last English team left in Europe
De Bruyne doesn’t seem happy with Pep “the same old story”.
The Pep Guardiola is my idol can only win in europe with prime messi, xavi, iniesta and puyol.
Despite spending almost a billion pounds in germany and england, he still hasn't even managed to come close.

Jesus is not as good as Danny Ings.
Ederson was awful for all 3 goals conceded.
The GENIUSES didn’t play like they should have (according to our script)!

P.s. de Bruyne (sherminator) deserves everything

Beginning of the season..... Also was still lots of points to be gained or loss. This is a good team and they proved it.
Mate...... City fans are the most biased agenda loving fans going and most I have seen are saying they were well beaten. They were garbage.
I don't know how people can be bickering this evening! I'm sat in my chair with a warm fuzzy feeling akin to a post Christmas dinner slumber.
Lineker just causually saying he worked under Cruyff.
Absolutely, exactly.
If City played Bayern today, it would have been another 8-2.
Haha, me too.
They’re the best team in Italy, league table proves it. Might be getting worse, they’re still the best team in Italy.
You wasn’t rude about it, it’s football, nothing is guaranteed. I’ve had my moment with another poster who pissed me off though
What's going on with the Sancho deal. Can you make that happen too please.
last 8 matches 3w3l2d
Not to mention Rangers beat them 2-0 despite playing 50min with a player less(39min red card) in a friendly 1 month ago
There was a lot of squad rotation but still...

Can we please stop with posts like that?
Playing no game for 4 or 5 weeks (German teams) and what... 3 months (French teams) and than directly going into CL finals isn't an advantage.
Pros are used to be playing "English weeks" for years now, but now all of a sudden a 5 week break between the most important games is a huuuuge advantage over teams that only had a 1 week break?
What's even your argument? Bayern and PSG being in the semis is hardly a surprise. The mighty PSG with this huuuge advantage barely beat Atlanta. Tonight City looked like the team with more stamina, Lyon seemed dead since the 60th minute.
And what about the results of the German teams in the Europe league? Why did they all fail so badly?
I'm already tired of this nonsense about a huuuge advantage, downplaying the performance of Bayern, Leipzig, PSG and Lyon.
Before the start nobody around here or elsewhere claimed that it is an advantage for the German and French teams, quite the contrary in fact.
Its a cup competition. Anything can happen. I also don't understand why we even need to compare different leagues - let us just enjoy the fact city lost.
Just saw the very brief highlights on the 10 O'clock News.
I couldn't stop laughing

Pep's confidence in his own judgement and ability means he has some blind spots, and the goalkeeper is one of them. Wouldn't swap DDG for Ederson, even with pressure De Gea's under at the moment.
Yeah Lyon in Ligue 1 were shoddy, Garcia made them solid but they were still not good against other french teams. It would be a small miracle for them to do what they did today against any of the 6 teams that finished above them.
KDB sounds absolutely pissed off. Very controlled, but pissed off.
Technically yes but actually no.
I will give you 3 examples and stop there as I dont think you watched the Serie A season.
- Beginning of the season vs Napoli they win 4-3 with an incredible own goal from koulibaly in the last minute of added time.
- Vs Atalanta they were outplayed until a last minute soft penalty gives them a 2-2 draw.
- Vs Hellas Verona they win 2-1 being played off the park with Verona hitting the post on 3 separate occasions and the keeper making a fantastic save on another.
* All those games were at home
* They won the league by 1 point. If not for the incredible luck of those games they lose the title.
Its not as simple as looking at points and saying " They are the far superior team"
Granted its easy for you to make that argument without actually watching how the season unfolded.
Please explain what the ‘argument is about’ then? You tried the other day, and spoke absolute irrelevance about people laying into Pep of they lose, which had not one single thing to do with me predicting a loss. You tried to change the argument the other day, it is you that is lost. The conversation was simple. I predicted a City loss, someone else got so angry at people who try to make arbitrary predictions, seemingly to appear clever, and he’d like to catch them out. Then later, you decided the ‘argument’ was something else.
Not to mention, that I didn’t quote you anyway. And if you took a minute to read what I did quote, you would see that I am fully entitled to respond to someone who was so dismissive and ‘annoyed’ and declared that if he could be bothered, he’d bookmark it himself so that he can come and do the exact same thing.
Don't get upset about it, I have watched plenty of games and simply disagree with you. It's fine.
It’s funny people were slaughtering Juve for losing to this Lyon team, when they fared far better than City did tonight.
Lyon isn’t getting passed Bayern, but they have some quality in that squad.

Probably more concerned about the arrival of his kid too!
