6 goals and 4 assists for Madrid isn't "world class" mate. In fact, those stats are worse than Foden's for the past season


He’s marmite no doubt. He’s also box office. His season has started after months of injuries. He’s going to be targeted by the Argentinians. Erling feet up. I’m convinced his time with us is in the last phase. Spain at some point.


He's been fit since March, Hazy. He's started 22 league games and played 28 games in total. Stop doing the typical England fan thing of making bollocks excuses.

Great player with a punchable face

I'd have him any day


The End


Yep, not doubting the talent. Just hate the person.

Argies through, it's going to be all about the Falklands in the MSM until the semi final. Great strike by Alvarez to win it.


Alvarez is shite .... ask Stupot.

I tried to stay up for the argie match and failed abysmally lasting only a total of 5 minutes before I was snatched ino the lands on nod. Another argie semi though and this time we might have the upper hand.

It might be time to get some Falklands posters printed for the occasion :)

He's miles better than Erling, Carl keeps telling us.

To be fair SC, it's only across the river like Salford across the Docks, or the Irwell. I'm sure you can smell the pies being made in Argentinaland when the wind blows in the right direction.

Is he back to being class after having a shite first 5 games?

6 goals and 4 assists for Madrid isn't "world class" mate. In fact, those stats are worse than Foden's for the past season


He’s marmite no doubt. He’s also box office. His season has started after months of injuries. He’s going to be targeted by the Argentinians. Erling feet up. I’m convinced his time with us is in the last phase. Spain at some point.


He's been fit since March, Hazy. He's started 22 league games and played 28 games in total. Stop doing the typical England fan thing of making bollocks excuses.


He missed 25% of the season was my point.. As for the England fan comment. Not so much Mase. I did not watch the game I’m a blue with a passing interest in the WC. I saw few of the stadiums on our recent month in the US. Unbelievable.

Swap him for Rodri perhaps ? Rodri can take his medical problems back to Madrid.

This 100% Rodri isn't just angling for a move to RM he wants another year off at City before he gets a big pay day on a free.
