Stones yes, although he was very good up to the point that he got injured midway through the season City got 100 points. They’re blaming off field problems on his recent performances

Walkers been an ever present in a team that’s won two league titles and is currently having a very good season, keeping out a player who you yourself was a class act and “certainly better than Kyle Walker”
Perhaps you know more than Guardiola 
Definitely not money wasted there 

Kyle Walker has been useless for years, can’t defend and offers very little going forward! Not much has changed this season.

Cancelo a much better player, some times it takes time for players to adapt to a new league/culture etc.

Walker having a very good season as I’ve said, brilliant at old Trafford last week. Did you watch it?

As I said, just surprised that Cancelo hasn’t displaced him yet given the comments in the summer when he signed of how class he was.

Imagine my shock when a City fan says a City player is having a very good season.

You can say all you like but he’s been average any game I’ve watched.

Against United last week he got the freedom of the right hand side of the pitch and contributed what exactly?  Mahrez was very good and Brandon Williams was pretty much marking the two of them. 

Cancelo has started the last three Premier League games.

He contributed one assist and should have been two if Sterling had put his boots on the correct feet 


Well I don’t say every city player is having a good season. That would be daft given their predicament. Ederson, Stones, the two Silvas and Otamendi haven’t been good for example.
Walker arguably in the top 3 performers for me. Has definitely raised his game this season

Nearly 30 years ago the KLF infamously burned a million pounds

Guardiola must have burned hundreds of millions of pounds on shlt defenders at this stage

At least he had Vincent Kompany who was Justified and Ancient

Correct.

They are obviously way below the league and champions league but when you have a special team you need to win as many trophies as possible as it won’t last forever.
In the past 3 seasons Pep has won the league twice, 2 league cups and one FA cup. 
If you can’t win the league or champions league you need to add a domestic trophy to keep the winning mentality.

Mr. Louis vanGaal thought that way, he won an FA cup and was fired the next day.

Laporte starts tonight 

Him not getting injured is now more important than the result!

Is the rule when city get a penalty to let the worst penalty taker on the pitch at that time to take them?

How many are Jesus and Aguero in particular going to miss? 

Kevin de Bruyne could probably be given a go at them. Just a thought

Bad tackle in the first few minutes of the game on Laporte according to Sky, doesn't seem to be hurt though.

Fleck has just done one on Fernandinho similar to Aubemeyangs last week and the Norwich player on Saturday that resulted in a red

It would be an all time thing is they weren’t recorded at all until about ten or twelve years ago.

Gabriel Jesus is nowhere near the level of Aguero, never fancied him on that penalty at all.
 
On another note Baggio I thought Walker was terrible again last night, kept giving the ball away and was the only player who couldn't defend for City but when he attacked he was Sheffield United's best defender.
 
A nothing player.

Jesus isn't as good as the best foreign striker to ever play in the league. No sh*t Sherlock
 
It appears you only pipe up when these lads have quiet games. They've had plenty of good performances recently.
