With City apparently favourites for Anderson, Semenyo, Guehi, Anderson, all players I think the majority of us would agree would have been exactly what we have and still need. Maybe Pep Lijinders was the real mastermind behind us after all!
23 Apr 2026 20:17:34
@Bob if that was the case then why was Lijnders and unmitigated disaster when he went to mange twice on his own esp. at RB Salzburg? Serious question
23 Apr 2026 20:24:59
We ended up with Gakpo and Nunez because Lijnders advocated for Klopp to sign them. I don't think so.
23 Apr 2026 20:25:06
Gutted we are not trying to rival them, would be a great addition for us and exactly what we need in the centre right now.
23 Apr 2026 20:46:47
That's a bit of a reach ?
23 Apr 2026 20:50:20
Does Ljinders sign the players then?
23 Apr 2026 21:12:55
Nunez was a better buy than isak. At least He suited our style and we didn't have to change the whole squad to suit him
23 Apr 2026 21:35:32
Ljinders is no manager, he's no mastermind, he has nothing to do with signings. Take off your tinfoil hat, save it for the Ancient Aliens re-runs
23 Apr 2026 21:39:53
I'm not excited by anything that city are doing. I think their team is average to what they used to have. Now, we got hammered by them but that's because how backwards we've went. Geuhi, was never a fan. The rest, there's better out there. There's always the next guy

Ron, Did you read that in his fabled book
23 Apr 2026 23:19:33
I think Bob's comment was tongue-in-cheek guys. Relax.
24 Apr 2026 00:02:12
John, that's an incredibly low bar. There's no way that Nunez can be seen as anything other than a massive flop for the money we paid for him.
24 Apr 2026 06:04:15
I would say Nunez is a flop but not a massive one. He did score a few crucial goals and winners en route to us winning the league last season.
24 Apr 2026 06:29:32
If Anderson, Guehi and Semenyo had replaced Macca, Gomez and the legend that is Salah I think you would be hard pushed to say that wouldn't have improved our team

Babbity
Big season for Isak next season then? How much did he.cost?
24 Apr 2026 06:55:53
Ljinders is a joke. Pretty sure if Pep leaves, then Ljinders would be out of City and struggle to get another job. The guy is way too far up his own arse.
24 Apr 2026 07:55:30
@ babbity: my point still stands "we did not have to change the way we play to accommodate Nunez".
24 Apr 2026 08:43:18
Not everyone is built to be head of the ship.
Nunez wasn't a flop other than what we paid for him. So whoever agreed that fee flopped

Rage bait.
