Don’t really get why he is so triggered when he’s playing on the best team of his career.
if I'm being a jackass, I'd say it's because he's selfish and it's not all about him anymore. His selfish play backs that up.

If I'm trying to be understanding, maybe he's frustrated bc City was where he could be a star. He really struggles for Argentina and is benched often. That never happened at City until Pep came. And now his football career is a constant struggle to be the star he thinks he is, while both his teams perform better without him.

Magic number for the league is at 34 and that's assuming United win out.

Merlin came back to the team early. I'm taking that as a good sign. Hate to see him going through something like this. The man is pure class on and off the pitch.

Good result today. So weird to feel like we just grinded one out and won 4-1

It's amazing that he basically hasn't trained with the team the past few weeks and has this major issue going on in his personal life, and can still look like everything is normal on the pitch. I've never seen anything like it in sports.

That's why he's one of the best.

Jesus' injury appears to be worse than initially thought so it looks like we may be going hard for Sanchez again.

Even if it wasn't as bad we were still going to go for him. A partial tear was still going to see him miss 2-3 months, I always thought the 'sprain' angle was optimistic.

I guess the swelling finally went down on his knee, hopefully it isn't fully torn.

ETA: Saw a statement from Jesus' agent on Twitter saying that the rumors it's a full tear are not true.

City have been drawn away at either Cardiff City or Mansfield Town for the FA Cup.

City and Sanchez have agreed to terms.

£13 mil per year and a £30 mil signing bonus if he comes on a free in the summer. If Arsenal accept a transfer fee, that signing bonus will be reduced to £15 mil.

ETA: Also rumors that the club are working on a £30 mil move for Shakhtar midfielder Fred (24-years-old). Pep supposedly sees him as a long-term replacement for Fernandinho.

Guys... we can't let a team that is 12 points clear in the EPL drop off the front page like this. We need more commitment!

Does the soon to be signing of Johnny F'ing Evans not fire up the fan base?!?

I honestly don't want him just because he was a rag

He will be a solid 3/4 choice CB though.

He'd be good for the role but we're looking at a pretty good chunk of change. I'd rather roll with Tosin.
