    Doesn't change the factual accurancy of what i said. Kroos is at this moment with Varane and Courtois top in minutes played, so while you're waving your flag for Zidane he's pretty much doing the opposite of what you're clamoring for.

    I’m not clamoring for anything I’m just pointing out the flaw in the narrative you were pushing.

    What's the narrative? All players that played less have been long term injured. That's a fact. You read into it whatever you want.

    So he is 10th in minutes when we use 11 players at a time.

    Horrible.

    He should be first in minutes! Even with his poor form! Even though people are demanding to win! Even though we have a big team and need to win!

    Again only ONE of those injuries is consequential to Vinnie, don’t play dumb.

    This one is very odd. He's been, by all accounts, declared healthy. Dude is better than Lucas, should be getting called up and getting some minutes to get back into shape. He offers just as much off the ball as Lucas, and his offensive game is far better.

    I'm assuming he's just not at game speed physically.

    I have nothing against Mendy but if Regulion was in the French league performing exactly as well as he done when under Solari, would we be paying €53m for him? Most probably. Similarly, Jovic scored 17 goals in 27 appearances last season. If Mariano was at Frankfurt, he'll probably have a similar goal ratio too.

    I'm just a little worried that the pretty much all of our signings will be a giant waste of money. If we don't win anything this season, what we spent on Hazard would be a giant waste too. Talent is not the issue we have in this team, it's morale and motivation. It is lacking in pretty much everyone apart from Casemiro and James at the moment.

    The fresh blood we need is not for skill sake. We need hungry and motivated players that will play exactly how other teams play against us.

    Flo didn't make any unsettling comments. It has been from Pogba's brother, but Ole won't talk about that. [emoji23][emoji23]

    I think Guardiola has developed him into an all-around elite talent. Him and De Bruyne are the most talented players on that City roster imo.

    Like clockwork, every time Sterling wants a new contract, his agent stirs up the Real Madrid links. Expect a new contract soon.

    Sterling has a contract until 2023. City are in control and he's probably looking for another payrise.

    Sane, Verratti, Donnarumma, Thiago etc. Definitely some interesting options for a player with just a year left on their deals next summer.

    Donnarumma is still just 20 and he could be a good signing if Courtois continues like this.

    If we can get Dona on the cheap then yes, otherwise I advocate luring a good shot stopper from a small team.

    Hope we can get Lunin out of Valladolid in January and loan him to a Segunda club where he will get playtime.

    If people are complaining about Courtois they are gonna go crazy on Donnarumma.

    I'd rather give Lunin a chance. He's a legit talent whose career we are not managing well so far.

    We have Kubo in Mallorca with one beautiful assist in La liga last weekend. :)
    So no doubts in my mind it is a contract strategy from his agent & Sterling.
