    Hey now, nothing wrong with that. That's what Xabi uses and that's what I also use whenever I play Football Manager.

    Exactly as I might have guessed - a football manager fantasy formation.

    You can worry about the formation when you have enough good players to field a somewhat competent team.

    Rumors in the German press that Palhinha is struggling with the divorce process with his wife and hasn't been himself because of it.

    16 players from the 2006 national team that won the World Cup under Lippi have become coaches. Kicker published a breakdown that a generation of players expected to become great coaches have delivered some of the most spectacular failures.

    He was wonderful at Villa, maybe he just not fit City system like Foden.

    Can we say Foden he's a system player? it's look likes if you take him out of City's system he's average at best.

    He definitely is. His England form is shocking. 4 or 5 years since he got capped. This is abysmal. Palmer should be given the nod but I see England doing another Gerrard and Lampard must all play kind of thing.

    He's successful in a good team and not successful in a bad one. Maybe the bad team needs to change in order to maximize the potential of the good players and get more in tune with the teams good players are performing well for?

    Doing England stat math after they got beat at home by Greece is weird.

    Haaland refused to give interviews as team captain after Norway lost 1:5 to Austria.

    Primadonna.

    Yup, would be interesting to see how he plays for another team or even at City under another coach that isn't Pep.

    I don't rate him either..... TBF neither are bad players but I can't think of any conversation I've had about footballers where I think these guys are the barometer for anything.

    On the flipside I think Fans are splitting hairs about what arguably represents the top 5% of the entire sport really.

    I watched a women's Bundesliga match, a Women's Champions League game, a 5th division mens game, and a third division men's game live recently, and trust me, the way somebody like Foden or anybody at that level takes off is like they are playing a different sport. First time I even saw Nacho live in person, you can tell he's a top tier athlete. We see things in this weird bubble of all top tier players and forget how good all of those guys are compared to the levels below them.

    That's odd considering he is supposed to be the answer to all of our problems
