Whispers that something has gone off. Bernardo seems to always be on the verge of wanting to leave too. Man City have too many good players without having to play them all. If Foden played for any other team in the league he'd play every week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There must of been some sort of fall out. Absolutely. He is an incredible player. Should be one of the first names on the sheet for Man City or any club in the world. Very weird decision by Pep.

CosbehFox Posted 30 January 2023 Share Posted 30 January 2023 The thing what amazes me at Forest. At what points does the 25 signings begin to alienate the other players etc. They want Shelvey before the deadline but are willing to let O’Brien go whose been a mainstay of their team for parts of this season. They’ve done the same with Toffolo. One of the players will turn around and say I’m not moving soon. Then it’s a problem to manage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SouthStandUpperTier Posted 30 January 2023 Share Posted 30 January 2023 Pep's a weird bloke. Did anyone see his pre-match interview with Gabriel Clarke the other night? Now granted these pre-match interviews are a nonsense, but he could at least have tried to be polite. Clarke's only doing his job. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now granted these pre-match interviews are a nonsense, but he could at least have tried to be polite. Clarke's only doing his job. I'll be honest, I think far too much stick is given to some managers sometimes for interviews on match days. They're emotional intense individuals being cornered at their most emotionally intense, pressured moments and deliberately prodded by journalists asking quite often baiting or leading questions. Clarke's questions were generic, asinine and a little dull and Guardiola is trying to focus on his team. I appreciate its "part of the job" but frankly it probably shouldn't be as much as it is and I do have sympathy and tolerance for managers who occasionally get fed up of it. Especially the likes of Pep and Klopp for whom it's demanded the most often and whom are often under the most pressure of anyone. And your man's doing it in like his 5th language or whatever.

But I don't think we'll ever see 20+ years at a club anymore ala Fergie and Wenger. The consistency as well, in those years, was amazing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arsenal are doing very well let's not take credit away from them and Arteta. As for Liverpool, eh, some horrendous squad management decisions over the summer which aren't Klopp's fault, a run of unfortunate injuries and all probably in a year in which they're cycling off. I'd guarantee they'll be back in the title race next year, particularly if they buy well. Putting all their eggs in the Nunez basket was frankly stupid. Uncharacteristically poor decision by them, he was never, ever ready for that kind of move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bear Posted 30 January 2023 Share Posted 30 January 2023 Pep has had some weird spells of dropping players in form or who are regulars, like Foden. I also saw someone mention that the conspiracy theorists say that the Cancelo deal with Juventus was very dodgy (valuing Danilo way higher than was realistic) and that they want rid before UEFA come sniffing round the deal.

filbertway Posted 30 January 2023 Share Posted 30 January 2023 Man City changing it up isn't a bad thing. We're testament to how stale things can go without change. You should never be worried about losing players, the excitement is finding their replacements. Obviously you don't want to change the whole 25 every season but new faces helps keep everything fresh and everyone wanting to do their best. It's natural to raise your efforts in the presence of new people. It's hard to stay motivated and have that edge when you're in your comfort zone surrounded by the same people.
