Guardiola to be found out in the premier league

Seamus Colemole · February 3, 2018

I missed the build up so not quite sure if i've got this right, but does has this tit only named 6 subs in some kind of protest against the FA over his players getting injured?

Bbc saying its a protest about him not being backed in the transfer window ?
Only spent about 2 gazillion pounds this year the poor little flower.

I did wonder if it was more that, he was moaning about having a restricted transfer budget the other day.

Suppose he is under a bit of pressure now, if he only gets to spend 100 million rather than 200 million people might not call him the best manager in the world so much.

City have played some super stuff and deserve the lead in the table that they have.
I just wish United were within touching distance as I reckon Jose could batter his head.

I'd pay to see that!

Apparently it's because they don't have enough players.

Their official site lists 24 first team players, and physioroom.com says they have 7 players out injured.

Gary Neville had it right :

With 7 players (and 2 keepers) out on loan.

Put a youth player on the bench like other teams do you berk!

The fact that their Elite Development Squad (for anyone else the U23 squad) played last night will be used as an excuse I' sure.

However, I'm sure not all of them played and knowing about their league fixture they could have kept one of their better player fresh.

Or heaven forbid, put the lad in a car after the match and send him down for the experience and let's not mention their U18 squad or lower.

It's pure and simply a component of his campaign calling for better protection for his players, whereas it really makes him look like an idiot.

Arguing again with a member of Burnley's staff after the game, in that cringey manner ala with Redmond earlier in the season.

Hopefully he picks the wrong person to do that with one of the days, prob bit clever for that though.

What happened to that Foden kid?

Looked really good at the world cup. Life long City fan too from their academy.

They can afford to give him opportunities with the league already won.

Just watched MOTD and Pep crying about Burnley being the most British of teams, having a dig at this league, no they aint, there are plenty of longstanding top flight british teams in the top 6 that are better than Burnley.

Man City brought half a billion quids worth of squad to that Burnley game, for Burnley to get a draw is outstanding, I'd like to see how he'd go on at Burnley with 40m to spend in the summer at best.

What a precious little bish. Spend bajillions on a youth set up and would rather pointlessly protest his fictional injustice than give a youth player a taste of first team action. Absolute whopper.

The BBC are full of excrement. It's about the injuries caused by some savage tackles which should have been straight reds. It's worked too, most of the papers have picked up on it.

"Fictional injustice" ? I can think of 9 tackles that should have been straight red and most of them hit away with nothing, a few got yellow. That's just in the last few weeks.

Agree, the refs haven't given some of the City players enough protection in recent weeks in my opinion. Yes, City have spent gazillions, but some of the challenges being thrown in are deliberate, nasty and potentially really dangerous and should be punished accordingly.

Can't get too offended about the 6 subs thing - who cares?
