Each time they started walking they could hear footsteps behind them in the grass. And if they stopped, the footsteps stopped too. But whenever they turned to look, there was nothing there. Just a big empty field. Kerstin had her suspicions and yelled, "Man United sucks ass!" There was no response.

Andrée Jeglertz is harnessing the power of youth in this Manchester City Women team.

Running back to London with the 'L' after celebrating and tapping your Arsenal badge in front of City fans who showed you nothing but love. She thought she was Adebayor.

Bunny Sundays
Those are fun days
of sunshine, football and green grass.
One-sided games. No impasse.
No stopping, flopping, or points dropping.
Boot against ball, ball against net.
There will be goals. On that you can bet.
These are the fun days,
sweet like ice cream sundaes
when Khadija Shaw plays

So, Donnarruma's coming in, and he's known for not really being good with his feet, but he says he can always improve in anything. You know, ladies, I'm old enough to remember when Pep let Joe Hart go. Did I ever tell you why he let Joe Hart go?

I said I'd drink one of these every time City's high line gets breached. I haven't been sober since.

I would have brought in Donnarruma but kept Ederson and moved him to right back.

A little haiku poem I wrote, inspired by this recently-published photo of Khadija 'Bunny' Shaw and Yui Hasegawa on the Manchester City website:
The past drifts away.
Tears turn into summer rain
watering fresh dreams.

"We need to be better in finding ways of doing in different ways. So we're not just attacking in one way."
That's the one thing Andrée Jeglertz said when he signed with Manchester City Women that gives me some hope. Other than that he's one of your copy-paste, City-style, possession game disciples

If NYCFC had 54% of possession to Orlando's 46%, but Orlando made 26 shots to NYCFC's 11, with seven on target to NYCFC's four, then NYCFC might be a #CityFootballGroup team with #CityFootballGroup problems.
