Truth be told it's p*ss poor by slot. The likes of endo harvey and Chiesa should bang on his door what have they got to do to get a game? Let them have a run of games. It's not like he hasn't got a points cushion atm. It just seems he wants robots. Harvey and Chiesa probably inject some flair. Endo or a proper 6 is needed urgently. Fabinho changed the team under klopp, city have free falled without Rodri.

Isn't Slot one of the reasons we have a cushion, john?
06 Apr 2025 20:21:10
Is Gravenberch not a proper No.6 now?
06 Apr 2025 20:28:38
How many points to City normally get?
You can criticise, we're crazily lucky to be where we are.
{Ed025's Note - the best team always wins the league Dean, its no fluke mate..
06 Apr 2025 20:40:23
Only 1 of Rigsby.
06 Apr 2025 20:44:33
Explain how were crazily lucky? No point banging on about City because the their team of 4 or 5 years ago is GONE, they are a shadow of that team at the moment with a Pep that no longer has all the answers.
{Ed025's Note - City are on the wane FM thats for sure mate..

At this stage last season we were 3 points worse off than where we are currently and Klopp used the squad far more and Endo was at 6 and we still fell off the cliff in our last 7 games with only 3 wins, 2 draws and 2 defeats.

I wouldn’t call it luck, we have a very good team, not the best we’ve seen us in recent years, but we are the best side in the prem this year and by a decent margin. It’s not our fault city and arsenal have failed to sort their squads out.
{Ed025's Note - i agree Mikey..
06 Apr 2025 23:00:25
Seconded - spot on Mikey.

City bought four players in January. None of them are guaranteed starters.
Arsenal don't have a centre forward and lose their best player for three months. They didn't replace Saka. They bid big money for a centre forward in January and got knocked back by Villa who did sign another forward (or two) .
That should give us some perspective about our disastrous last two transfer windows.
07 Apr 2025 06:16:33
I know what you are saying Rigsby but I don’t see how what City and Arsenal do or don’t do in transfer windows matters when talking about our transfer windows.

You don’t win the league through “luck”.
Over 38 games you need more than luck.

WDW, they were the two teams more fancied than us to win the League and I'm just pointing out the problems and solutions they have had and used this season.
It's not just us that is suffering with injuries, looking tired and having recruitment issues.
We can always improve but I can't see how we get to where we are and the word disaster being used especially when a new manager has come in and wants to assess the squad.

You damn right, Ed. Only a sore loser who can't take a loss would say you can fluke/ luck your way to a league title. Even worse coming from our own fan base. Embarrassing, as usual.
{Ed025's Note - its always been that way Oli even when Leicester won it they were the best team over the 38 games, thats why i have always thought its the most prestigious trophy because as we all know anything can happen in a cup tie and that includes the European Champions trophy, some of your supporters are spoilt mate and think how dare another team beat us!, welcome to the real world guys..
