A New Home for the Former Next Messi
At the time it was quite shocking to hear that Bojan Krkic signed a long term deal with Stoke City. The shocking part wasn’t necessarily that Bojan wanted long term security contract wise, just that it was… well with Stoke. By now you’ve familiar with the story of the player once thought to be the…

Eliaquim Mangala is a Scapegoat
Scapegoating is easy. It’s also dumb. Eliaquim Mangala is increasingly becoming the scapegoat of Manchester City’s season thus far, and there’s no good reason for that. There is a very clear line between frustration and scapegoating, and there are City fans who are using Mangala as a scapegoat, which is both not fair or reasonable. Eliaquim…

Manchester City’s Yaya Problem
I know, I know, I know. We’ve been very City centric these last few days, we might as well call ourselves “Every Day Is Kun Aguero Day”. (Not gonna happen, Jordan.) This is what occurs when you’re involved in arguably the three biggest games of the last two weeks: stuff gets written about you. Unfortunately for…
