Premier League Gameweek 1

Is there any point anyone competing for the league with City? Just accept defeat now!
“The moralists” Jesus wept. The people who let morals to inform their judgement, perish the thought.

Do you call the people on the other side “the human rights abuse apologists”? Doesn’t have as nice a ring I’ll give you that
They’ve got a goal scoring freak, we’ve got a kid with a bad back.
Let’s just give them the title now and forget about it. Feck Haaland.

All this constant doom and gloom is nauseating.
 
He's probably going to sleep at night dreaming of lining-up with both, whatever the formation :wenger:

I’d take it. Rate Mbappe higher but he isn’t what is needed while Haaland is. Can see him getting bored in the PL and wanting out.
 
I suppose normally it would be 3 mins given the stoppages. So 5 makes sense with the new laws
 
City games are so boring
They’re genuinely the most boring team to watch in the PL. Keeping the ball for 90 mins might be the best way to win a game but it’s absolute dogshit television.
 
5 minutes added time in the first half. I like the new rules. Was stupid when they never used to add on time in the first half
 
It’s a shame he’s never going to leave City. Real Madrid won’t ever be in for him. Feck sake.
Same with all of city’s best players over the years. There’s some common factor that means they never want to leave. Dunno what though.
 
Incredibly dull.

Just pass it around in defence/midfield for 5 minutes... Then launch it over the top.
I appreciate what they do is class. The boss the ball, pass it for fun, similar to Peps Barca but it's an absolute chore to watch.
 
This is pointless to watch. City have been poor yet Burnley can’t take advantage of it as they’re very much a Championship side.

It’s never entertaining watching rivals winning games at a canter

i hated watching arsenal too during their invincible season for example

if this was us we would all be be loving every secound
 
I can’t believe the utter stupidity of some defenders.
Kompany really should have just stuck a defender on Haaland the whole game and not given him an inch. You’re sacrificing one of the league’s worst players to ensure the most dangerous striker in the world is under constant pressure.

Nah I don't agree. It's boring. Liverpool were actually a good watch there for a few seasons even though it was shite seeing them win. Their games were entertaining

The problem isn’t the possession. It’s that it’s boring possession. They are starting to remind me of the later Barca pep teams that just hoarded the ball and gave it to Messi a couple of times to score and win. Arsenal possess the ball very well too but they are much more probing and activein how they create. City have been passing it around the back or just hoofing it long.

Screaming and shoving a camera, this should be a 10 game touchline ban :o

This is different. Peps revolutionised football but it’s so less entertaining now. You can appreciate the tactical and technical skill of it all but with the tactical fouls and the way they keep the ball there’s barely a sniff of a counter attack.

Don't worry. They'll get a 2point deduction in 3 years. And maybe they won't be as dull when Pep leaves.

So if this was utd, you would be posting how bored you are…Is that what you are saying?

I agree. it's not just City games either. Individuality has been sapped out of the sport the last 5 years it seems.
