the broken english may be a slight clue. still better than s4e and carl though...

OK so he tweets some things himself and the PR guy tweets the other stuff. Sounds legit.

Nice to see the thread title changed to what God intended.

Loving the response, but certainly concerned that he could still be out for basically the entire season.

I am happy for Delph and think he can do a job, but Mendy's presence was taking us to the next level when accompanied by the play of others who have improved.

that's being very, very harsh to Carl, Nige! and You don't wanna do that, I promise You.

@ John in the lovely Cornwall: don't think is that difficult to get where the jinx stands, particularly for a man of your qualities

I was wondering if I was the only one doing linguistic analysis of his tweets.

We now have a problem, please let the solution to that not be Sane as wing back.

Delphinho looks to be the goto left back.

He is not a left back though and doesn't have the pace needed to be a left back. He will no doubt give all he can because he is that kind of bloke, but he will not, and should not be expected to be, as good as a specialist left back. I hope people don't give him shit for simply not being Mendy.

As said by most here over the last three months, Ben Chilwell or Danny Rose should have been bought in summer instead of all that fucking about with Sanchez.

Yes, You said that right, several times and were spot on.
But I also agree with WW on that, on the given circustances, Delph is to be regarded as the best possible option when Danilo is unavailable or need to be used on a different role.

not to be emphasize my ego, but I need to refer to my original post on page 1:
if confirmed to have gone south, this is textbook "Typical City": on large evidence this season, shortage of top quality FB is gonna be detrimental as nothing else, not even remotely comparable with the CB problem.
if Pep shall manage to minimize the issue untill a patch will be applied in january, his genious will get a further recognition, imo.

btw, is anyone aware of whether, under the PL rules, Angelino fm NAC and/or Pablo Maffeo fm Girona might be called back immediatly, as I am almost sure is ppossible in other leagues?

Not to emphasise......but the ego has landed.

OK, could someone tell me what's been happening here as I find threads on Twitter almost impossible to follow back and understand? After the first tweet the context is assumed and people like me coming to it later haven't a clue what it's all about.

Thanks FiBD. I think I eventually worked out how to mostly follow a thread back: click on the cited tweet, the one in the box with the thin border.

Rose has been injured for EIGHT MONTHS.

Chilwell not at the highest standard.

Delphinio & Danilo or a kid will have to step up & Sane & Otter will need to give better support down the left.

Very easy to dismiss others' suggestions while making none of your own. So which homegrown left-back would you have suggested we bought then?

Mendy was actually screaming in agony while his PR bloke did the tweet.

Manchester City FC can confirm that Benjamin Mendy has ruptured the anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee.
The French defender sustained the injury during the first half of the Saturday’s 5-0 Premier League victory at home to Crystal Palace.

After initial tests in Manchester at the start of the week, Benjamin travelled to Barcelona to see a specialist doctor, where further examinations of the knee today confirmed the extent of the injury.

Benjamin will undergo surgery tomorrow in Barcelona, and everyone at the Club wishes him a speedy recovery.

mancity.com will bring you regular updates regarding his rehabilitation.

Fuck. Are there any examples of young, speedy players rupturing their ACL who still play at the same level (or better) once they recover?
