If they bottle this you’d have to have serious concerns about the level of strategic thinking going on. I suspect not and it’s just too soon to burst the bubble but a good test of the new regime..either way it’s obvious a decision should have been made before this final.
🚨🚨🎙️| @lauriewhitwell: "We did get strong information that the expectation was that he [Ten Hag] would depart the club. But we felt that we had to make checks and we were told the final decision has not been made yet."
Erling Haaland has urged Manchester City’s players, staff and supporters to “stick together” and “enjoy the ride” in the wake of the Premier League’s damning verdict of cheating against the club

As I’ve said for years, idea Pep the greatest manager of all time absurd to anyone objective and rational. Barely taken on a genuine challenge, always had the best players and resources, (cheated), yet still fallen short enough. Pleasing his legacy irrevocably damaged. #Fraudiola

Our team was set,our attackers proved themselves last season,the team qualified for UCL.What did our genius manager do?Brought back a Barcelona & Villa reject & England's 4th choice winger & displaced 2 players to shoehorn him into the team.The result is 004 & 4 points in 12.
Maguire on Rashford: “He was a threat constantly. I think he could still do a lot more and he’ll say that he can do more. I think if we keep him fit, we keep him happy, he keeps driven, keeps hungry, I think he is a great asset to have.” [@lauriewhitwell]
TRACKING back… and even a TACKLE!!! 🤣£350k a week. Kind of him. Let’s see if he can make this the norm, not one offs to try and win back amnesia ridden reds.
🗣️ Rio Ferdinand: “Marcus Rashford man, he's WORKING, he's grafting, he's TRACKING back.
“I think it was 79 minutes, he made a TACKLE on the edge of his own box and on the side, winning the ball back.
“And even MORE important than that was the response of the crowd because that's been a concern for many people.
“That's been a concern for Marcus Rashford and his family, and the people around him. What's the reaction gonna be?.
“If I had any advice for Rashford, I wouldn't have been thinking about goals, assists, skills, anything about attacking.
“I'd be thinking, how do u get these guys back onside, my work rate, my ability to run back and track back, make tackles and show sacrifice and show responsibility to this team.
“That’s how I GET them BACK onside.”
