Nope, sorry. How much you earn doesn't come in to it, whether you sympathise or not.

I don't think he's saying that he doesn't sympathise just because he's paid a lot if something was said but more, and maybe this isn't what he meant, that his wage and position comes with a responsibility to act in a certain way and hitting a fan doesn't fit in with that.

Obviously if something bad was said that's a tough situation but Aguero should still have the self control to not respond

I'm all for playing the same 11 vs. Rochdale but from then on I want our strongest team playing, no reason not to go for this.
Same 11 but with Kane and Alli for Llorente and Sissoko. Makes sure in the first 45. Kane wants Clive Allen’s record and it would be sweet if he managed to break it in the Cup Final.

They will be fearing us more than we fear them.

I’d rather not play Utd again. Mourinho is a manager who learns from mistakes.

Anyway, have to beat Rochdale and then Swansea/Sheffield Wednesday first and we’ve all seen what happens when Spurs fans take something for granted.

So Jake Livermore was wrong to confront the guy who took the piss for his child dying?

Aguero's English is fucking dreadful, unless the bloke was racist to him in Spanish which is extremely unlikely I ain't buying that.

The most important thing is poch not taking anything for granted.

We have the right to be confident going forward in this comp with the squad we now have and the general form we are in, with City out.

Poch needs to get the players minds into winning it and treating every game with respect.

Psychological.

Can press through it.

Fuck Chelsea.

If we get them we press them like no tomorrow and we win.

We'll batter the mugs.

We're winning this fucking cup!


If we hit Chelsea for 10, the Ruskie might feel so embarrassed that he just packs up and leaves England.

No because he didn't hit him. If he had if hit him then, whilst he should be given leeway as should aguero if something was said, it would been the wrong response, with confronting him and then reporting him being the correct response, as Livermore did.

I'm not going to condone multi million pound footballers hitting people, part of accepting that wage to me is agreeing to behave in a professional and responsible way and to set an example, but I can see where you're coming from, there's not a clear answer.

I want City to get to the final in every competition they've got a boot in, then lose in front of the biggest crowd possible. I want them to have hope, maybe even get cocky with an easy run up, but only to have it dashed against the wall, like the runs hitting porcelain.

Not because I don't like them, just to demonstrate to them that you can pay millions upon millions but it makes no difference in the 90 minutes that count on the pitch.

Tell you what, give me one of Aguero's millions and you can say whatever on earth you like to me, that's how I see it. Respect you have a different opinion there, but the point remains that loads of other people are abused at work and don't lash out at anyone.

So you too want Arsenal to win this weekend.

Fuck me, it's rife.
