Premier League fixtures 14/15/16th October

How long are people going to keep mentioning that draw with Everton (which they dominated with 10 men) as a way of dismissing this City team?
 
The Cherries have tried to park the entire collection of double deckers in London in the Wembley box. Jesus.

Do the moaners actually think Pep would get our players playing like this? You do what you can with what you have. If Pep was in charge of us he’d have to buy 8+ first team players.

He would build the United squad to play like this. He would kick out at least 3-4 players from your first 11 though players with quite underwhelming technique.

6th or 7th best of course should not be our level, not with the money that is spent on the team. Every team gets injuries, I don't think we've got that many crucial ones really, Pogba and that's it. Other teams have key members injured too in Aguero, Mane and Morata.

You have seen what City have spent? This isn't Leicester City. It is Manchester City who have one of the best academies, but will quite happily spend money in January if they need to.

It's not about who we is injured but who is there to replace them.

Mane, they have Coutinho and Salah...
Aguero they have Jesus who was even prefered to Aguero some games last year.
Morata well, we'll see how they'll manage as they only have batshuai.
But we have nobody offering what Pogba does for us.
 
Stones is a different player this season. Much more aggressive and physical. If he keeps this up he'll be more than justifying his price tag.
 
Very nice goal from Stoke.

There wasn't any real doubt he is quality.

I hardly think we're in a position to talk about cash that has been spent. City's injury hasn't hampered them as much because of their style of play, not because of the vast money they've spent. The fact that they're above us in youth terms is a separate disheartening topic.
