The year is 2096, Mars has been populated, famine has been wiped out, fusion power runs everything, dolphins got voting rights, teleportation kiosks ended airports, and the Pacific Garbage Patch is now a floating garden.
Liverpool fans are still crying about Van Dyke's disallowed goal.

Today I learned that Dirty Old Town and First Time I Ever Saw Your Face were written by the same person! 😮
Thanks to @groomb.bsky.social for this, and lots of other interesting stuff I didn't know before I read Made In Manchester.

Having given us a penalty and disallowed their goal, I fully expect Kavanagh to even things up in the second half.

Considering Pep gets accused of destroying Grealish by not allowing him to play with freedom, Doku and Cherki seem to be doing okay!

Those self-appointed cheerleaders who spend the entire game with their back to the game telling people what to sing are very very strange people indeed!

I feel bad for Ortega. He's far too good to be fourth choice, and deserves better.
I hope he can find a new club in January.

Two of Man City's goals vs Bournemouth at the weekend saw at least 9 different players involved in the build-up.
There have been just nine goals scored in the Premier League this season that have seen 9+ players involved in the build-up and five of those have been scored by Man City.

It was hard not to get excited about the performance of Rayan Cherki as Bournemouth were swept aside by Manchester City on Sunday.
He assisted both of Erling Haaland's goals and has created five chances for his teammate in just 163 league minutes in 2025-26.

Not only did we comfortably beat a very good side to go second and become top scorers in the league, there are so many positives from today;
✔️Cherki looks the real deal.
✔️Nico G is class.
✔️1st PL goal for Nico O.
✔️Haaland is ridiculous.
✔️More minutes for Rodri.
