    I assumed it was restricted to 1 Jan 2000 onwards, otherwise Zidane is obviously above Henry.

    Jacob Murphy's unstoppable form continues. Two goals against Urawa Red Diamonds in a 4-1 win. Should've been a lot closer but they had a penalty saved and both defences were rusty.

    Is there a good explanation as to why City kept breaking these kick-off rules? Does 'Pep' really have to yammer on that much when they were probably coasting in all of the games?

    Hopefully Elliot has a good season in the 10 role.

    Genius from Levi Roots, who I presume is in charge of the PR function of Jamaican football, to heavily trail Steve Bruce in advance to soften the blow of it being McClaren. A true pro.

    Ah I see overnight we have discovered Harvey Elliott is the best player in the world and the quad is in the bag.

    Do you really need to sign new players when you already have Harvey Elliott in the squad? I think not.

    New players is a fools game. They just get injured and out for 3 months immediately. Bringing in set piece coaches and vibes is all you need.

    Have De Ligt's relative travails since leaving Ajax been in any way injury related?

    Yokohama F. Marinos 2-0 Newcastle. Clearly a new manager bounce as they've recently kicked out Harry Kewell.

    Man City C team 4-0 up and counting against nearly a full strength Chelsea side. Two weeks time should be fun

    I know pre-season scores should be ignored, but the performances have me liking this style of SlotBall.

    KloppBall was always quite grindy for 4 out of every 5 games with the other one being the one we score all of our chances and win 5-0. Also interesting to hear him having watched how we played previous and his first instinct is to get us to stop giving up counter attacks.

    Chelsea and Man Utd both look pretty turd, though the Collyer lad looks good for Man Utd.

    City getting to lay the smack down on an inept Chelsea in the opening game of the season bodes poorly for the league. Usually one of the few games they struggle with every season.

    Chelsea surely have the worst collection of CB's in the league. From the games I've seen Adarabioyo, Colwill, Badiashille looks absolutely terrible. Sanchez doesn't exactly inspire confidence, either.

    We’ve lost all three of our US pre-season games, although things have slowly got better - 4-1, then 2-0 and then 1-0 overnight :/

    Will probably end up similar to the last game between them at Stamford Bridge. 5-3 City or something bonkers like that. Man City have barely played a first team player all pre season. They’ll be sluggish at the back for the opening few games. No way Haaland doesn’t lol past the defence he’s against though. Manager has it all wrong

    Chelsea fans tell us Colwill is Maldini's second coming though.

    Keep going, might end up drawing and eventually winning.
