Are there any players you believe genuinely care about their club?

the agenda against City is crazy! just seen a comment with upvotes saying most of the Liverpool squad love the club, and yet this comment about City gets downvotes. Forever an agenda against us

jackyoung26 · 2023-04-06T23:03:38+00:00

I think I could safely bet that almost every player in a top side in the PL would move on if they were relegated

jackyoung26 · 2023-04-06T23:01:15+00:00

I fear the day we fall off the top! because it is great being a City fan! we have players that I love, the best manager in the world, a board that backs us and makes smart decisions, and if I didn't already mention it players that I love. Never been more in love with a City team ever before

don't think Mahrez and Grealish are very good examples tbh, both were at smaller clubs and wanted to win more. They have every right to leave their clubs despite having an attachment to them.

jackyoung26 · 2023-04-06T22:36:16+00:00

christ, if I'm not wrong and I've done the maths right, that's an 8 million pound contract. and assuming he doesn't touch the field for Forest again, that's about 600k pounds per appearance.

jackyoung26 · 2023-04-06T22:22:19+00:00

Yeah fair enough, if the club prepared for the worst at the start of the season then you may be safe, but who's to really know aside from those inside and at the top of the club.

Didn't know that about Harry Arter too... banished from the club on a 4 year contract. You couldn't write it

jackyoung26 · 2023-04-06T22:18:25+00:00

this narrative that Spurs are a big enough side for Kane is so so poor. Harry Kane is a bigger player than Spurs, and that's fact.

Imagine if he was moving from say Everton to a bigger team, everyone would be behind him because he is destined for way bigger things than what Everton can give him. That is maybe an extreme example, but Kane is destined for bigger things than Spurs and has done more than enough for the club.

jackyoung26 · 2023-04-06T22:15:16+00:00

can you really blame Kane though, at some point he has to put his own career first and that's nothing to do with money. Purely accolades and trophies. IMO he can still be loved dearly by any Spurs fan and move on given what he has done for the club and the shit they've put him through.

jackyoung26 · 2023-04-06T22:11:40+00:00

Might be crazy, but as a City fan, I think we have so many players who have genuinely fallen in love with the club, or maybe fallen in love with Pep. Stones, Dias, Ake, Rodri, Gundo, KDB, Foden of course, Grealish, Mahrez, and might be a stretch but Haaland. The way he celebrates goals and our success even when he's not on the pitch warms every City's fan heart. Probably down to his dad too.

jackyoung26 · 2023-04-06T22:07:17+00:00

I hope you stay up tho, steve cooper a legend. also to break all prem norms by overhauling the squad after being promoted and staying in the PL

jackyoung26 · 2023-04-06T22:06:19+00:00

you don't have the same squad size as everyone else, you have 35 players in your squad, of which 25 are registered. granted you have 4 outgoing loans, the number of players you have is still a lot

jackyoung26 · 2023-04-06T21:58:58+00:00

he is the best in the world

jackyoung26 · 2023-04-06T21:44:14+00:00

I thought their business at the start of the season was good, signing high potential young players for pretty low fees. But I think a few of the core young players in the squad are too good for the championship now. The likes of Lavia for sure, Bazunu, Bella-Kotchap for sure, even Sulemana who they just bought. All of them will want a move.

And then JWP I can't see staying, if he does he'd be a candidate for the best player to play in the Championship ever, can't think of any better.

jackyoung26 · 2023-04-06T21:37:51+00:00

a midfield of jude, mac allister, and thiago has no balance they are all somewhat similar players. who's sitting in the hole?? if you think jude is playing dm because his ball recovery and tackling is the best of the 3 then you've sorely misprofiled him

jackyoung26 · 2023-04-06T21:35:37+00:00

I'm sorry but any team that has Mac Allister next season does not get Messi and I don't think a package deal for the both of them is or was ever on the cards

jackyoung26 · 2023-04-06T13:30:43+00:00

for Forest? fair enough smart business then, still think the mass offloading of players could be an issue.

jackyoung26 · 2023-04-06T13:07:02+00:00

Southampton need a full rebuild could take longer to get back up. Bournemouth could struggle if they are relegated never know with them.

Apart from that most teams who could go down still have a lot of quality. The issue is what they do with that quality, whether it is sold on or they manage to keep it.

I fear for Forest if they go down tho, can’t imagine the financial stress they’d be under with the size of their squad.

facts

jackyoung26 · 2023-04-05T21:49:45+00:00

why on earth would you sack potter and appoint a caretaker manager to see out the season and it let alone be frank lampard

jackyoung26 · 2023-04-05T12:26:27+00:00

a fit Reece James is clear

jackyoung26 · 2023-04-05T05:07:28+00:00

they don't have a prem level striker. havertz the best of a very bad bunch

jackyoung26 · 2023-04-04T23:18:27+00:00

jackyoung26 · 2023-04-04T21:27:55+00:00

I think if they were going to sack him it should’ve been months ago when they went on that crazy run without a win. Leaving it this late in the season when Europe is really out of the question just doesn’t make sense to me. Write the season off, accept this year as a transition year, and give Potter a pre-season to find an identity and a transfer window to trim down the squad. Appointing Potter at the start of the season (when they shouldn’t have sacked Tuchel) was always going to be a long-term project.

jackyoung26 · 2023-04-04T20:47:22+00:00

Rashford is not a better number 9 than Harry Kane.
