TAKE THAT SHIT TO THE-BRITS.COM
Duderonomy said:Haaland for half a Grealish! That's like winning a trophy right there.
But don't you dare try and palm us off with Jesus. Not interested in another lightweight ineffective striker. Reckon he's got a career in the less physical La Liga, but we need someone with more presence.
I'd take Bree Embolo. He impressed me at the Euros for Switzerland.
Haaland will be asked to track back and tackle, which I'm not sure has ever been part of his game, but I am of course looking forward to him scoring Haaland-type goals which have eluded City for a while.
Also City, relatively quietly, signed Argentinian international striker Julian Alvarez in March for 13M IIRC, which also seems good business. He's more in the Aguero mould (5' 7") but the more strikers the merrier. I'd keep Jesus as a Mahrez alternative, I think that's his best role, but I think he's had his head turned now. But I agree, he's not going to be Henry 2.0.
I think your last good 'un was Adebayor.
SAY SUMFIN'.
I don't know Embolo, but just asked my eldest - AKA the FIFA library. He rates him.

multi jungle/dnb vibez of all eras (raer-r)
Hey, it's what all the kids are listening to....
https://www.theguardian.com/music/2022/apr/22/its-just-good-energy-how-tiktok-and-covid-made-drumnbass-hot-again
"“I grew up around soundsystem culture, as half of my family are Jamaican, and I was always drawn to that sound, the drums and the distorted bass,” Nia Archives told an interviewer this year, adding – and any original junglists may want to look away now, lest they feel impossibly ancient – “my nana loves jungle”."
Now that everyone feels like they need a Zimmer frame, I gotta admit - Even someone as hip as me (roooight?), I ain't never done heard of these TikTok D&B'ers. Man has 'nuff plates to spin. Anyone else got these acts on their radar? I mean, who could resist this sales pitch:
"There are emo-seeming types with manga illustrations instead of artist photos, lots of Xs and Vs in their names and song titles that one assumes are tongue-in-cheek: xxtarlit has an online mix called Bad Goth Bitch Music To Cut/Worship Lucifer To."

Spurs are not yet the machine Conte demands. Blown some games they should have strolled. Best of luck getting a CL spot. I think it's doable. I watched the whole Chelsea game and Arsenal wanted it more.
As the dismount for the Pommel horse routine that is 21/22 fast approaches, I do feel LFC are stronger at the mo. City will miss Kyle Walker for the CL semi, who was having, for me, his best ever season in a City shirt. It won't weaken City that much but against Real or LFC, it's a liability. I like Zinchenko but not covering for Walker. He's not fast enough. City leave a lot of space at the back and Benzema hasn't slowed down at all, and is absolutely lethal this year.
I see a Pool-Real final, I know it's a glass half-empty mindset.
But maybe if I drink enough, I can manifest Grealish transitioning from a boy to a man before our very eyes and skilling in back-to-back hattricks. With a new haircut.
I suspect it would require more booze than we got through in London, L*o.
