I’m surprised that there aren’t any conspiracy theories about the Ozil assault, making life uncomfortable for him to hasten a change of scenery?
I was reading an article today which suggests him and kolasinac have got themselves caught up in the middle of a gang war and that he is going to have trouble extracting himself from now that he appears to have run to the Turks for protection.

the third strip shirts for this season are time limited until this sunday. i don’t know whether that means a store exclusive or they will stop selling them.

anyway it’s the best looking of all the kits this season. so i grabbed a ‘Yang one today along with a zip up training top.

Reckon so? I love the away kit this season.

Might pick up a shirt, undecided if I'll get a name on the back of it yet.

the away kit is skin contrast colour dependent,
a bit like our home kit. i much prefer the dark blue and gold/yellow stuff as it looks better on me. ymmv.

Jealous of city having no shirt sponsor on the home kit.

The away kit this season is one of the best in years! Been a massive seller apparently

That's the 125th anniversary shirt, not the new home shirt.

Yep 1 off for charity shield, as that's not registered as a proper fixture.

That Ceballos has got a bit about him, looks like he'll be a great player to watch this season.

Not what you need at all though, obviously.

Sean Dyche diving comments after the game just beyond belief. wobble

Take the 3 points and run as it'll take a while for this side to settle down and find it's shape.

Dyche is the new Pulis,, it was almost like watching the Rugby team a few years back, lob lots of balls into the box for their thuggish players to bully into the net.

We were better but still not being decisive when balls are played towards our box, the amount of times we failed to clear the first header or were just plain beaten too it was poor. Luiz was an improvement though, him and Socrates will make a good pair, thought Nacho had a solid game too.

Ceballos was excellent, almost like watching Fabregas at his best, the youngsters all did well Willock and Reis especially, AMN had a bit of a mare in the first half but looked better in the second.

Good win today, even if we still continue to look "suspect" at the back laugh

Pepe showed some great touches, hopefully he can get a start next week.

I think Madrid will be wanting him back at the end of the season after a performance like that. He does seem quite one footed, but what a foot it is!

not sure what game you watched as willock and nelson were crap. anonymous when not being crap.

still there only young and game time will help them.

cebellos could be some player not afraid to get stuck in either, pepe too, defensively we were poor again, winning no 2nd balls looking insecure, AMN looks a million dollars one minute then a calamity the next caused by casualness. midfield wise with willock offering not a lot i thought we lack a ball winning midfielder. need torrirea(?) or chambers in there to help us dominate as i cannot see us dominating midfield.

not impressive but ref was the biased mike dean and burnley are physical. still we will take time to bed in...just hope its quick given next 2 games.

Your front 2 will have an absolute field day against that Liverpool defence.

Signs are that we look like a more cohesive team but defence is still a massive fking issue. We just don’t defend well as a unit at all!

Ceballos looks great!

Considering it’s the first game Luiz and Socratis have played together I don’t think they did that badly. Also Xhaka didn’t play either so little or no proper protection for the back four I was expecting a lot worse, though that could be taken either way I suppose laugh
