Which already puts them at a huge disadvantage. You don't really want to be giving this City team any real lead, do you? Back in the day, it felt like you could be several points off going into March and still have a chance. Now, you give a team like City six, seven points and it's going to be really tough to reign them in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Southie_Owl Posted December 28, 2021 Share Posted December 28, 2021 James Maddison is as good, if not more effective than £100m Jack Grealish. Thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely, I just think Liverpool have been like a duck this season looking good on top but the feet are going ten to the dozen below the surface whereas City hardly seem like they've got going fully yet, and still find themselves 6 points clear as it stands Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I prefer him to Grealish tbh. Bit more direct, less faff before doing something, better shot on him. Shame he's a bit of a helmet too and sometimes lets himself down with a questionable attitude.

I think it's just hard for Grealish to assert himself in that team, I reckon once he settles in to it then he's going to be really good for them, it must be a massive adjustment going from the star player to just another player Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah can’t help but feel Man City have paid for hype and not enough substance. As the guys on MOTD said the other week, Man City spend that £100m on a striker and they run away with the league, even more so than they are doing now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0wl18 Posted December 28, 2021 Share Posted December 28, 2021 Leicester we’re phenomenal. Considering they were knocked for 7 a few days ago, that’s as spirited a performance as you’ll see. All pulling in the same direction, working their socks off for one another and, the manager. Thought TAA showed why Southgate doesn’t really fancy him tonight. Poor decision making in key phases of play. Luke Thomas on the other hand has to be close to a call up considering Shaw’s issues at United.

Buck Rogers Posted December 28, 2021 Share Posted December 28, 2021 Really hope Amazon get the full Prem League package at some point. No need at all for Sky then. That's if they can keep Prime at less than a tenner per month. Bargain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's great going forward but can't defend for toffee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
