@Hugo____Viana Ake and Stones will leave at the end of the season. CB’s next season will be Dias, Khusanov, Gvardiol, Guehi, Reis and Juma Bah. Cooking.

What a serious talent Vitor Reis, him along with Khusanov will rule the Premier League and Europe for years. Manchester City duo.

@WilloMCI He will go out on loan next season. Victor Reiss and Juma Bah will replace Stones and Ake in the squad. CB’s will be Guehi, Khusanov, Dias ,Gvardiol,Reiss and Bah. So much strength and pace now.

Manchester City recalled Max Alleyne back from Watford in January as our defence was falling apart with injuries. In those few appearances he got, you could see it straight away. How he was composed, switched on, and not out of place at all. He didn’t look like a kid thrown in for the sake of it, he looked like someone who belonged. Since then, the picture’s changed. Players have come back fit, and then we added Marc Guehi to the team. Suddenly, the pathway that looked slightly open for Alleyne has basically shut. If you look ahead to next season, it’s hard to map out where he even gets minutes. We already have Ruben Dias, Guehi, Josko Gvardiol, and Abdukodir Khusanov as options already. Then you’ve potentially got Vitor Reis and Stephen Mfuni coming back into the mix too. That’s six top level centre backs before you even mention Alleyne. It is tough, but that’s the reality. At a club like this, being sixth or seventh choice wouldn't be any kind of development, but only a stagnation. At 20, he doesn’t need to be hanging around the squad hoping for scraps. He needs games, proper minutes, responsibility. He has already shown enough to suggest he can handle more than just Championship football. He looked comfortable at Watford, and he didn’t look out of his depth for us either. For me, the next step for Alleyne would be a loan at a Premier League club. A move where he’s trusted, where he plays week in, week out, where he’s actually under pressure. That’s what will tell us what level he can truly reach. Staying at Manchester City next season will just stall him and his bright future ahead. If we handle this right, though, there’s a player there. A really good one. He just needs the platform to prove it.

@RealTolmie I think that is the only solution.

City will allow James Trafford to go out on loan next season if he insists on not staying at the Etihad. They do not expect any club to meet with their current valuation, which is far in excess of the £40m reported earlier this week. Clubs will also have to match 100% of wages.

@veryfathomer Fuel Duty hasn’t changed since Labour came to power so why are you blaming them.

£2 a litre for diesel. £1 of which is tax. Thanks Labour.

@JoeySalads And the gap between the National debt of USA and the NATO nations is much bigger. And these nations hold most of the US debt so be very careful.

The GDP of the USA is significantly higher than all of NATO combined. $32 Trillion vs $24 Trillion. NATO needs us, we don’t need NATO

@johnredwood Because we don’t have compulsory conscription on peanut wages - I thought you were supposed to be an experienced politician!

Israel has more military in uniform, an Iron Dome protection, more than six times as many tanks and twice as many combat aircraft than the UK for a smaller budget. Why can’t the UK government get more for our defence money?

@Oghener0 Ake

If the club decides to keep one of them, who would you want it to be?

@OfficialOAFC Is Taylor going to do a late season push like Vimil did last season ? - hope so

🙌 YESSSSS KANEEEEEEE!!!!! [1-2] #oafc

@Gr8balls4hire @TedUrchin @TrishHodkinson My money is on a second referendum being included in the next Labour Manifesto, drawing a clear battle line between Labour and Reform - stay out vs Rejoin.

@TedUrchin @TrishHodkinson The vote’s coming and it will include 16 to 18 year olds to suit his agenda. Couldn’t give two hoots personally but why did he not have the balls to put this in the Labour manifesto?

How dare he. How dare he make closer ties with the EU when 17.4 million people voted to leave those very said ties. HE CANNOT BE TRUSTED!!

@Matt25324024 @cdslash @DocAhmadMalik He had no choice other than to go down the renewable route because Thatcher sold off our oil and gas - how many times do you need to be told before it hits home.

Erm inconvenient truth time David Miliband served as Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra) from 2006 to 2007. During this time, he championed climate action, helped build cross-party support for stronger targets, promoted ideas like personal carbon allowances (though they weren't implemented), and pushed for the development of what became the Climate Change Act 2008. He played a key role in getting the legislation moving and convincing sceptical colleagues in government, partly to avoid being "out-greened" by the Conservatives under David Cameron. The Climate Change Act 2008 (which received royal assent in November 2008) was the landmark law. It made the UK the first country to set legally binding carbon budgets and a long-term target to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by at least 80% by 2050 (compared to 1990 levels). This replaced an earlier, less ambitious 60% target. By the time the bill passed, David Miliband had moved to Foreign Secretary (in 2007), and his brother Ed Miliband had taken over as Secretary of State for the new Department of Energy and Climate Change, announcing the 80% target in Parliament.

Please explain why Norway has a booming oil and gas industry and ours is dead? This isn’t incompetence. It's treason.

@HornblowMedia @DocAhmadMalik Absolutely nothing to do with Milliband or indeed the current government. Thatcher did the damage cheaply selling off the oil and Gas to the multi nationals whilst sensible Norway kept theirs and set up a sovereign wealth fund. We now have to buy oil and gas at the market rate.

@DocAhmadMalik That would be Milinutjob and his brother worshiping at the Chinese alter of Net Zero. Whilst quietly lining their pockets. Needs investigating by an independent energy commission. I am not against renewables I am against suicidal energy transition. 😢🤮

@RFvdV11 @MatchDCentral City can get 85 points so even with a 40 point deduction Spurs could go down.

@MatchDCentral Imagine it’s 40 points and they end up saving spurs again!!

‼️👀 Rumours are growing that Manchester City could face a points deduction soon…

@radhoo12 Loan deal only

Such a shit situation. I’m heartbroken 💔

@Hugo____Viana By now having the pace of Nunes and Khusanov in defence it enables NOR to push into midfield. A Pep masterclass.

Again Nico O'Reilly at LB!? Pep Guardiola is testing the patience. Didn't learn anything by the Madrid humiliation.

@Hugo____Viana This post aged well😂

@Liamsz007 Trafford is going to be the better all round keeper. He must not be sold.

Who should start for the rest of the season guys? Donnarumma or Trafford?

@Rory_Talks_Ball Yes you are- City were 2-0 up and not giving away possession and running the clock down was key.

Cherki starts in a dangerous position in the box Ends outside the box, having spent half the time facing away from goal Am I missing something?

@CitehSide Left and right footed - More balance.

Sorry but why did the Khusanov-Ake centre-back duo look much better than the Khusanov-Dias duo?

@radhoo12 I actually think he will be a better all round keeper than Donna - keep him at all costs.

Like I’m actually so hurt and heartbroken knowing we’re going to lose him for that donkey 💔💔💔

@RealTolmie His and Khusanov’s pace is making a huge difference to our defence. Yesterday this extra recovering pace allowed NOR to push forward at will.

It would be insulting to buy a right-back over Mattheus Nunes this summer. There are no perfect right-backs and he's perfect for us. He's had a brilliant season.
