Wellp, I guess I might as well go to sleep so i can wake up and force myself to watch us get undressed by Man City. The most disappointing part is, as negative as I am right now, I'm going to wake up excited and optimistic, and in sports, it never ends well for me. #COYG

Considering we’re playing Kolasinac as part of a back three, I really wonder why Arteta couldn’t find space in this squad for Saliba.

MO8 in the middle with Xhaka concerns me a bit because I think a bit more steel is gonna be required since Citeh are going to dominate possession. I’m hoping for a decent result but we’re gonna get slapped.

City should have went for Lewy when the Kane negociations were turning sour.

Lewy is 33 and has a good 2 even 3 years at elite level. He won it all with Bayern and did express some desire to leave as Bayern is yet to extend him. Only 2 years left on his contract so get him now for 70 something M and City would have had a rich man's Kane right now then maybe try for Kane in 2 years.

If they didn’t throw that money at grealish they could’ve convinced Levy, they bottled it
