It's not surprising that big teams with lots of resources and money might win more trophies -- just look at Man City's dominance in recent seasons -- but what might surprise you is the sheer scale of this inequality.
The PL isn’t fair in the slightest. Man City win it literally every year, and will carry on doing so until Newcastle outspend them, and then Newcastle will win it every year until someone with more money and similarly dubious ethics comes along. It’s a joke competition.
They won the league last season by 5 points, meaning that if arsenal hadn’t lost both games to city they may have won the league.
They won the 21/22 season by 1 point.
They walked the league in 20/21.
They were left in the dust in 19/20.
They won in 18/19 by 1 point.
They walked the league in 17/18.
They finished 3rd in 16/17.
In the last 7 seasons they’ve only comfortably won the league twice, all while having apparently the best manager in the history of the game and while having unlimited financial resources and breaching FFP.
If they’re punished appropriately for breaching FFP they should have 2 league titles take away from them, meaning they’ll have won the league once comfortably and twice by small margins.
And if you’re complaints about city having a monopoly on league titles you must not have been watching football for long. Man utd won 13 league titles in 20 years in the 90s and 2000s. Liverpool won 11 of the previous 20.
