Yet another De Gea howler. How long before he is on the Joe Hart scrapheap?
Not sure of the source, but the statistic mentioned on R5L today was that before his recent 3 in 4 games he had made 3 in 120 odd. These things happen, he hasn’t gone from being one of the best keepers in the world to being scrapheap material in the last month. For me he was THE best. That said I remember all these arguments being made about Joe Hart and now he’s Burnley’s back up. Obviously De Gea has some way to go before he matches Joe’s journey. And now he's not even the best keeper in Manchester. Long way to go before he could have a career crash as epic as Hart, but it is unusual to see him make so many basic errors. His shot stopping has mostly made up for his deficiencies elsewhere in his game, so if he starts continually letting in weak goals then questions will be asked. Still a top class keeper, though he has been overtaken comfortably by Allison and Ederson as the best modern day keepers. Yeh I agree. I'd like to see De Gea play in a team that is able to play out from the back and is comfortable playing in and around their own area to see if he has got anything in his locker other than big hoof. I'd also legit like to see Ederson turn out for City in an outfield position. I think he'd be cracking in the Carrick role.

Not really. All the top sides make tactical fouls, the Liverpool of the Boot Room era were adept at it. Phil Thompson’s protests about the penalty he conceded in the League Cup Final Replay were a trigger in the move towards red cards for denying a clear goal scoring opportunity. OGS took a red card vs Newcastle in 98 rather than let the title slip away. BBC breakfast reported 85% of United fans asked would rather lose to City than help Liverpool to the title. The other 15% presumably either lied, or didn’t understand the need to keep Liverpool off the f*cking perch. Really? I just don't get it. I get Liverpool used to be the big rivals, as City weren't as strong back in the day, but surely Man City/Liverpool shouldn't make a lot of difference anymore? Maybe I got too old for football; or Bradford City have been so bad, for so long, that hating on anyone else seems so futile. Click to see full-size image. |
City can hold the fort till we get a Fergie reincarnation. Hopefully the world will have moved on to renewable energy by then.

Yeh it’s right next door to the driving range, where I have my lessons. Wish i’d Have seen it sooner as well. Bought a set from American Golf, but I suspect the Ping guys would know a lot more.
