Would have been interesting where we rank for how many given against us as well
But I think proves what we already know we get the rough end of decisions

Sure there will be some on here saying he is not a Striker.
He has got a hell of a strike with either foot and once the confidence really starts to flow he will really push on and score a lot. Real highlight from today.

On a positive spin we only lost by 4 away whereas Reading lost by 7 at home.

Blackburn are doing very well without any parachute payments, but it wouldn't be a matchday thread without many people trotting out.
1. IT'S ALL THE REF'S FAULT!
2. BUT PARACHUTE PAYMENTS, IT'S NOT FAIR!
Every. Single. Match.
So can non PP clubs afford the quality of Mitrovich and Wilson, the players that can't get on the bench would get in most champ teams.
Ref has made some poor decisions which had a hand in there opening 3 goals.

I guess this is what you get for a 40 million pound headstart

Shame poor ref has opened door for Fulham. 1st goal Vyner pushed as he jumps, 2nd goal Calum fouled before cross then Kalas 2 handed shove, then they score from the breakaway when Disilva was brought down for a pen.
Got to love the ref's ex prem love in

No, he just got outmuscled by a very good striker who probably should be playing at a higher level.
Sorry a push in the back just when vyner is about to jump is not being out muscled. He has just done the same to Kalas for the equaliser

Thought it looked a clear foul on Vyner

Bet365 gave 18/1 with city winning and both sides not scoring or 16/1 city winning with both sides scoring

All the talk of Mitrovic, but I think the key is keeping Wilson quiet

Think NP finds the pressers a necessary evil of the job. When asked an intelligent well thought out open question which does not go over the boundaries he keeps having to repeat, he tends to give a very considered and articulate answer. But he certainly does not suffer fools gladly, and some of the journalist get what they deserve for the inept questions they ask or asking a question they then proceed to answer themselves.
I enjoy NP's pressers, find them insightful and honest, but message for journalist is to plan decent questions that you think he may answer and don't waste his time.

For footballers at this level, playing against no defence and half hearted attempts by a keeper, bit surprised to see them miss and also some poor 1st touches. Its about the instinctive shot and getting it on target whilst dealing with the pressure from the defender or making the run to create the opportunity, not sure how this prepares them.
Also, no Aw?

Excellent performance today and continued improvement.

Was about to say he looks a bit good for Swindon, even before he won that dual with Jesus.
Yes I was looking up who he was and then posting just as he did that

The only way I can see city promoted is to grow a young team that develops each year, backed with some experience. The difficulty is preventing their heads being turned once you start getting that success.
We have gone from a strategy where we thought we could buy success by spending the money made on transfers and bringing in higher calibre of players to develop, but unfortunately this has been an expensive failure due to poor recruitment.
Until the farce of PP is removed and we have a league that is a level playing field, we cannot go out and buy the level of players required so we need to develop the youngsters and our academy seems to be starting to bear fruit along with the expensive gamble we took on HNM. We need to stop being just a selling club every time someone shows a bit of interest, but of course everyone has a price.
PP payments are killing football, could this be a solution?

Post covid it would seem the have and have nots gap will grow ever wider. Whilst I understand some arguments that PP are needed to soften the blow for relegated premier league clubs, but if we want to stop PP killing football and have a fair competition then something needs to change. The Crouch report seems to be going nowhere with the great and good of the premier league looking to close ranks and help to ensure if any of them fall foul of relegation they have their advantage intact to bounce back up. As the PL hold the purse strings, the EFL will be given a few extra pieces of silver to shut up and told to run a long like a good boy and do as you are told.
So what could be done? the simplest answer is to spread more money into all the leagues below, but this would involve the PL giving away too much of its stash so will never happen, having relegation clauses into players contracts with a pay cap would seem a good solution but I have already seen this idea being watered down with it being a % of turnover to try and ensure the same big clubs can have the best players.
So what about the option that if a PL team comes down and wants to benefit from PP to keep it's players, then it incurs a points penalty reduction at the start of the season. After all if any other team falls foul of FFP you incur a point deduction, so would seem fair that clubs wanting to fund better players that would not fall inside the FFP regs should also have points removed.
PP are currently worth approx £90million over 3 years if a team has been in the PL for more than a year and £75 million if not, this is a massive advantage in player quality but what's it worth in points.
Looking over the last 4 seasons (did try to look at longer but effect is distorted due to previous payments over 4 years),
On average over these 4 years PP are worth about 9 points per year to a team (this would possible to high a deduction due to the 20-21 figure). Once a correct arbitrary points figure is set, then PP points deductions could be on a sliding scale, against the percentage of PP taken, this would encourage teams to consider their playing staff and cut costs.
Interested in others thoughts, to me it seems a system that could be made fair and level up the disparity between PP or not without bankrupting more clubs or complications of player contracts
