Agent Rafa, Tuchel = Mourinho, 'boring' City, Lukaku and more mails...

Benitez, Rafa, Mourinho, City, Lukaku, Liverpool and Manchester United are discussed.

Manchester City are on course to win the Premier League title. The Premier league is now a one-horse race. Jack Grealish is a waste of money. Lukaku is not a player Manchester City needs. He is simply a cog in the wheel. He doesn't perform well in big games. Chelsea sold him for a reason. Dave LFC believes that Manchester United sold Lukas for no good reason and that they are not worth the money they paid. They are boring. Manchester are a wonderful team with a brilliant manager and sublime players. David L FC believes they will win Premier Leagues title easily.

Rafa Benitez might get a statue outside Anfield.

Thomas Tuchel's comments about Jose Mourinho's performance reminded Stewart of him. Tuchell's players hated playing for him at PSG and Dortmund. Ciro Immobile is not a world class striker. Ryan believes Lukaku is a good player, but his system doesn't suit him and he's not playing well. Ryan also thinks that Lukakus is boring. He's been a poor scorer for Manchester City. It's a vindication of being proven correct. The player is playing badly for City and not well for the team. This is why he was sold to Chelsea. In his time at Inter, he outscored Cioio Immola by 10 goals in the same amount of games.

Chelsea's lack of pace was exposed in the game against City. Sergej Milenkovic-Savic should be brought to UCL clubs. Liverpool fans are grateful to have Klopp. He could have rivalled Guardiola for dominance if the board backed him in market. The front 2 of Salah and Mane are squeezed of their last drops. He should bring in new players to keep the competition high and squad fresh. Vikas didn't know Karius was still here.

Arsenal and Spurs have their derby postponed. Arsenal have injured players, players on international duty in Africa, a player serving a red card ban and one Covid-19 case. Spurs could have won the derby, but they have Leicester 3 days later and Chelsea 4 days after that. The postponement gives Spurs fans a chance to turn the volume down for a few days. Andrew thinks the AFCON may not be a great watch. He thinks it's a different type of game in African conditions. Andrew also thinks that the grounds are probably not equal to Premier League grounds. Samuli is angry about the postponing of the match.

There are fewer expressive players in the modern game than in previous generations. Modern football is dominated by high-pressing, attacking units. The artists are still out there, but they're a dying breed. I like Mason Mount, as much as anyone, and I doubt I'll be watching his skills on youtube in 20 years.

In the pursuit of perfect attacking football, have we sacrificed the one thing that made football beautiful? I recently read a modern pundit lambasting Zidane as he wasn't productive as his skill demanded.

Bryan is angry at F365 for making Joelinton look like Zidane, Mings like Beckenbauer, Ramsey like Maradona, Chukwumueka like Pirlo, Norwich like Barca, Villa like Brazil 70 and Winterburn like a fraud PE teacher harping on about United DNA.
