    Absolutely mullering Arsenal, 2-0 up, could have been four or five,

    Can't work out if it's City being immense, Arsenal being turd, or both. Only one team in that game though.

    So happy for Stones. What a player. Man City absolutely dominating. Big talk about Arsenal injuries, but they're only missing Saliba from their starting 11, but it is a massive miss when comparing him to Holding, bit like us missing Andersen, Cundy isn't a patch on him, but no excuse for how poor Arsenal have been, not even just this game but last few week where they've dropped loads of points

    Wonder if Stonesy would ever come back to Oakwell. Seems fairly unlikely but you never know, player manager etc

    It's not a fairytale, no. But spending that money still doesn't guarantee success or good football. Look at the money Man United and Chelsea have spent and they can't touch City.

    So have Chelsea, so have Manchester united, Arsenal biggest spenders last 3 seasons before Chelsea this year. They're an incredible side.

    De Bruyne can't be far off being best player in world surely?

    They've still not spent has much has PSG, Barca and Real in the time they've owned the club, and that's probably including Barca's transfer embargo. l hope they dominate the champions league for years to come.

    Sportswashing FC are a great side. Shame they are funded by a murderous state that should be nowhere near football but it is what it is.

    You’d imagine some pressure on PG to win this year.

    Apparently they're changing all their transfer policy too, buying young, selling on. Looks like they've already started with some recent signings, but the amount of money spent, that club has been a shambles for years. Messi, Neymar, Mbappe, Ibrahimovic,Cavani,Silva, Ramos, Verratti, Di maria, so many unbelievable talents mismanaged. Could have been so much better with proper higher ups

    It's an insult to compare De Bruyne to Connell, De Bruyne can't lace Connell's boots :D - when I said De Bruyne for best player in world, I was obviously not including Connell as it wouldn't be fair on every other footballer :p
