Yeah we had the year after that when we yoinked RvP away from you lot.

Despite the great players city blew a little hot and cold before Guardiola came in, he really made them the dominant force.

ah the RvP days were so good. Best left foot we've ever seen at the Emirates. Bergkamp leaves, enter Van Persie. Seamless transition

Then Ozil came along after u get him from us and I thought he would be the next savior. We aint been right since lol

There’s something that bit more special about a cultured lefty. Especially when they’re that bit temperamental and maverick with it.

I remember seeing a quote from Henry about RvP maybe when he won the Golden Boot...he said something like "I always knew he was going to be special, even early on when he came in and he wasn't the easiest to deal with, I knew he was going to be great"

Yeah he was a bit of a hot head when he first arrived. I remember him getting sent off stupidly at least once but I think that’s never a bad sign in a young player once they eventually learn how to channel it.

But I was told there’s an injury crisis?

Crazy how every single player on our team has missed at least one match with injury this year yet we are still 2nd.

Imagine if we didn't have a red card crisis early on followed by our best players being out for half the year. Even if we kept Smith-Rowe, Reiss Nelson, Nketiah, Elneny....any of these guys would've been huge this year for us.

Or better yet, imagine if we signed someone in the January window to patch up the starting XI....Like Spurs did with Tel!
