I think West Ham's bench contains a new contender for 'best football name':

Haaland watch!

wet spam should be 1 up

Ten Hag has got a big job on his hands. 

City dominating West Ham. 

I've had it on in the background. Haven't seen West Ham near City's box and is Rice playing?

Just wondering how criminal this is watching West Ham allow City to have a training session in their stadium.  Utter sh*te from West Ham.  

On the other side of the coin City are always looking to penetrate the opponents box, unlike our shower of sh*te forward line and tactics from out manager that would rather play around it...and you wonder why we find it so hard to score. 

Haaland will struggle in pl 🤣🤣🤣

It’s so annoying hearing pundits and commentators saying the deal for Haaland was a “snip” at £51m. Completely ignoring all the add on costs which take it upto £150m. 

Nunez has some deficiencies covered by the Pool team but Haaland has everything to succeed. 

Tough race for Top 3

Erling Haaland and Kevin De Bruyne are probably going to be very unfair on the rest of world football. We have got absolutely no chance of beating these lot to a league title until Pep goes and his golden boys (namely KDB) start to drop a bit of form.

Over 5 years or so? Not bad at all.

All in all Marina wasted close to 150m for one year of a useless donkey.

How do you know all the add ons take it up to £150m? We spunked nearly £100mil alone on a massive waste of air last season. This post absolutely stinks of jealousy. You’re going off what you’ve read online but probably don’t have a clue. Haaland chose City because it was always going to be his next move. We’ve spent more money than City have and haven’t won a league title for nearly a decade; we can’t be having sly pops at rumoured transfer fees.

No it was essentially a £150m transfer fee. Fee for the player £51m but then there was big fees for agent and dad as well. Hardly a snip. 

10 years ago, we signed Kevin De Bruyne...

Neville needs to shut up about our transfer business and focus on how his beloved club just lost for the first time in history against brighton at home 

Too easy for city

I think alvarez is a cat person 

This game was incredibly boring. City are efficient and dominant, but it's death by a thousand passes. It's so boring to watch. This is why I skip so many of their games.

14 shots, 2 on target and over 600 passes compared to West Ham. 

West Ham rolled over today I see

It is funny everyone keep talking about the beauty of fluid football, interchange football, magical false 9.

Pool vs fulham, Nunez came on for firmino and change the game. United game, Ronaldo came on and change the game and finally this Haaland guy will be a problem. 

Maybe it is not about false 9, fake 9 or whatever. What matter more is when your winger is sadio mane and Salah, you don't need a no 9 but if young winger is Luiz Diaz, a 9 will be good.

at one point they had 40 completed passes but it was the 42nd minute 

City have been favourites every year for the last six or seven, but this year they’re not favourites, they have just simply won it after a weekend.

Whilst Broja didn't change the game for us completely, he had that same influence on a smaller level as well. I always prefer a battering ram over another pass and move player but maybe that's because I'm a Chelsea fan and watched Drogba and Costa do business like that.

United are now after Arnautovic and just had a 9m euro bid rejected. They have fallen so far.

Last season I said that they are the new Arsenal, but with the way things are going, they could drop down lower than Arsenal ever did.
