Man City announce the first phase of work to expand the Etihad Stadium from its current 47,670 capacity to 62,170 is to begin imminently.
 
we bought 2 players:

Pawel Dawidowicz, 18 years old CM from Lechia Gdansk. costs us 2 million, will be sold by 25 in 3 years.

Michy Batshuayi, 20 years old FW from Standard Liège, top scorer of the belgian league. cost is unknown at this point but he'll be sold by 10 times what we paid for him in 2 years.

15k extra empty seats. City doing their best to impersonate Serie A's riveting atmosphere.

Shouldn't we be buying right backs?

You know, seeing as Maxi isn't good to begin with and is getting up there in age.

but Pep is

I doubt you would appreciate Pep even if he defends all titles. I like your Pep trolling though. If we fail you could pretend that you were always against him.
Edit: That Robben goal!
I couldnt stop laughing when he scored that goal of the century.

Is that official? Nice get if so. He's been linked with Everton all year but they apparently didn't want to pay his full release clause (it was around 10m if I recall).

Jupp is just angry that Pep broke Heynckes early title record.

Jupp, pls change

D-Day for Leeds, Cellino nutcase appealing against the ruling

If Red Bull want to step into English Football, is there a better opportunity.

you really don't have to be a football genius to notice his defensive tactics are LvG-level of shit. The difference is we have better players now and Neuer, so it doesn't look that bad, but Heynckes' tactics make DvB, Contento, etc look like top class defenders

Aren't you looking forward to them actually like, playing for your club? It's not like having owners and agents swim in money is going to make Benfica suddenly relevant in the top echelons of football.

I wish Liverpool would pull their finger out with their expansion. They can actually sell it out.

I might be able to get tickets more often too.

Erghhh, Seeing that Robben goal brings back all the bitterness. We really should have gone through that tie and at the very least been in the final.

i know Benfica's role in world football. we're a feeder club for the big sharks. i'm ok with that.

do i look forward to watch them play? sure.

do i know that if they're good they won't be staying long? sure.

we lost Matic already and by summer time Garay, Rodrigo and André Gomes are 100% gone. probably even more players leaving.

Shouldn't we start betting in our youngsters? You know, that portuguese team our president wants in 2020.

our B-Team has so much quality and we currently have by far the best youth squads in the country. if the don't pull the trigger soon it's gonna be a bunch of talent wasting away.

Haha, sounds legit.

So Heynckes used some magical secret sauce that made DvB and Contento good? Tell me more!

Kroos signs a new deal per @BILD_Bayern

Well technicalleh he has a contract until 2015, so that doesnt really exclude a transfer, only Bayern wont sell him in the next year. I guess the new contract will be signed in may when the team is presenting the trophies in Munich city.

the only thing they say: Rummenigge verspricht: "Toni Kroos wird gesichert auch im nächsten Jahr das Trikot von Bayern München tragen!" Jetzt fliegen die Bayern ab.

rummenigge promises: toni kroos will surely also wear the bayern shirt next year

I'm sorry on behalf of Janusz Michallik


he'll stay if he knows what's good for him.

We are already a talent waster. Or do you think we are going to start playing next season with Cavaleiro and Bernardo Silva?

Every fucking year is the same thing. Buy a ton of players, have 3 or 4 that are good and give the rest to play for other teams while our president talks about youngsters and that they are the future.
