Lack of defensive transfer news is positive, England's Boo Brigade are a disgrace to their country.

The lack of defencive transfer target news would have worried me over the last few years but, today it represents a move forward for Manchester City FC. It shows we're not rushing in and making rash signings anymore, it means we're not going to necessarily sign a player early only for them to come back from a tournament with an injury. It means our club are forward thinking and are willing to take our time, not be pulled into a transfer bidding war or panic buy.

I'd have to say that's down to Guardiola's influence without any doubt, from what we understand of him now, he's not the type to tolerate someone like Chelsea's Russian owner Roman Abramovich dictating who a club buys and sells. I'm not convinced that Pellegrini had much influence in transfer targets himself, I think he relied on scouts and other club employee's to get him what he needed.

I'm not convinced either that Mangala or Otamendi were of Manuel Pellegrini's choosing, my belief is that he sanctioned their signings but had little in scouting them. As much as it pains me to say, the likes of Alex Ferguson and great coaches before him actually knew how to spot real talent. This is one reason why I think Pep Guardiola is currently the best Coach in Europe if not the world, he has the experience of working at all levels from youth to senior professional Football. Something the likes of Jose Mourinho lacks, there's only one Coach with European pedigree who could take us to another level and that was, is Josep Guardiola Sala.

England's boo brigade are an utter disgrace to English football, those minority who have attacked Joe Hart and Raheem Sterling are more than likely a majority of Liverpool and Man United fans, with the odd fan or two from the ranks Tottenham Hotspur, Arsenal and Southampton's fan bases. All have the agenda of wanting their players picked for England's first eleven over Hart and Sterling.

Too stupid to realise their bias idiocy is causing England more harm than good, along with the British Media they have destroyed Raheem Sterling's confidence. It's rather pathetic that Pundits like Thierry Henry and Steve McManaman have taken this long to come out in defence of Sterling, an almost empty gesture on the Media's part. It's like shouting at an empty stadium after the act has been committed and the culprits are gone, even Jamie Carragher tried to act unbiased by talking about how Sterling needs to get his confidence back after he unjustly judged the lad.

Even some Manchester City fans are claiming that Sterling has had a bad season? FOR REAL? are you freaking serious?

In his last season for Liverpool he scored 11 goals and created 10 assists, in his FIRST season for Manchester City he scored 11 goals and created 10 assists. He did that in 5 less games while moving to an entire new alien City, while being hounded by the British Media and lynch mobbed by Liverpool fans. Experiencing his Girlfriend and Daughter being threatened and abused by Liverpool fans on Social Media, all at a young age. And now he's got England fans making him a scapegoat out of bitterness and jealousy.

Raheem Sterling is a success, maybe not a spectacular season, maybe not world class but, he's far from a waste of money or a failure.

English Football may have stamped out Racism but it still has it's fair share of problems.

Segregation, one reason why England will never win a World Cup or European Championship any time soon

It's depressing watching your fellow countrymen and women round on certain England Internationals at every possible chance they get, we all know it's nothing to do with one bad performance or one mistake. We all know it's about opposing fans wanting their players playing for England, rather than players of clubs they hate. This English football fan mentality is what's wrong with English International football, when you're supporting your country you're supposed to put your differences aside and support whoever it is that represents the Country. But no some, I say some but not all are so bitter and hateful, that they're incapable of understanding that their actions have consequences.

I recently published an article on how Sterling has been treated by England fans since leaving Liverpool and signing for Manchester City. I strongly believe there's a considerable amount of England fans hell bent on causing Raheem Sterling enough grief to negatively affect his game and mental well being. Sterling's still a young lad is vulnerable and these England fans just don't care, so who's going to stand up for the lad aye?

As of yet no ones defended the lad accept a few of us City fans, the British Media have strung him up and lash him at every chance they get. I can only imagine how that feels for the lad, especially after he was lynched by Liverpool fans. I'm a father and I have to say, if anyone threatened my Son like Liverpool fans did his Daughter, I'd be more than upset. For those fans to continue attacking Sterling is just wrong, what's to say the treatment he's getting isn't part of the reason for his performances for England or lack of.

It's all well and good having an opinion but, when it comes to constantly targeting someone. It's no longer an opinion but an obsession and an unhealthy one at that, especially when it's constantly negative and without good reason. I'm not trying to change the world, I'm well aware the world will never be without, hate, racism or prejudice. If I can just make one person see the error of their ways then great.

Every England fan should be behind England no matter who is representing the country, the fact these lost souls chose to attack Raheem Sterling and Joe Hart rather than enjoy the fact England drew one and won one. This proves that there are still deep issues within the English fan base despite wiping out Racism within English Football, segregation is still very much alive and kicking.

England can not succeed without every ones support, when you single out people it only causes problems. Not just for the player being targeted but also for the players around him. Those who witness and wonder whether or not they will the be next to be put on the chopping block or hung from the rafters. Players will claim they don't let it bother or affect them but, that isn't the case as they are human just like us, have feelings and we can only take so much before we say enough is enough

I'm not a huge fan of Roy Hodgson but he has my respect for sticking with Sterling.
