you are for getting last season city were without kdb and harland for many games and i would argue played as well and maybe better in that period.

Another episode of crying about haaland touches. While demanding a man with 15 goals in 4 years start against west ham. Funny how standards & expectations are the highest for every other player. While grealish can be rubbish for years & always gets an excuse. His control gimmick is outdated. Pep ain’t falling for that this season. He is almost 30 years old. Never gets held accountable for his continued poor performances. The double standards are depressing.
