👆 This is an excellent interview with Madders if you’ve not already watched it. Fascinating to hear direct from a key player what Ange is really like. He really is as he’s been described. It’s not a mythology that has built around him, and players seem to really get on with his style.

Beautiful little interview with Vic. He comes across as smart, intense, sincere, serious. As likeable off the pitch as on.

Man City 3-3 Tottenham Hotspur // MATCHDAY UNCUT
Adam on Lo Celso: "He did not misplace one single pass in the entire 90 minutes EVEN with Rodri up his arse"
Almost true. He made 40 out of 40 passes for 100% accuracy, but he "only" played 79', not 90. Still, impressive given the intense circumstances.
Yes, for sure, Poch was the real deal and Levy should not have sacked him. The Stadium has been a huge distraction (then Covid right after it opened), but I understand from a business perspective why it was needed. It could be seen as a masterstroke once the regulator comes in and FFP rules are actually upheld. The need for a sustainable and diverse income at clubs at the top is important.
But for me Levy handled it all badly, including those 3 managers after Poch.
Something Noel mentioned several times: it'll take 10 years.
He was talking about getting to a place where you can take winning the Champion's League seriously. A real contender, not just a fluky run. This is how long it took City to get there with SERIOUS football people running the club from top to bottom with a long-term vision.
He mentioned the 10 years figure in regards to Newcastle and United, but it applies to Spurs too. Arsenal further in. Chelsea? 🤷♂️
Other clips in that fascinating interview with Noel Gallagher. I always love to hear him talk about City and football in general. He's a knowledgable fan with nuanced understanding of the game, imo.
I think the graph above was when Jude was about 16/17, not 20 as it says on there. It was his 2019/20 season in the Championship.
This graph is Jude now. 😵💫
That comes down to coaching though, no? I'd have thought Ange would have him pushing up, passing forward and, yes, shooting too. I guess we'll never know now.

Interesting little stat about Porro in that Udogie article:
"Porro (7.21) is the joint-best rated right-back in the division after his performance in Spurs' 4-1 dismantling of Newcastle"
