If that was anyone other than City in the prem they’d still celebrate because they got “top four”.

It’s the top 4 is a trophy mentality everyone bar City seem to have coming home to roost.
A lot of Chelsea fans are racist.
Coming from this fanbase, irony.
They stole a lot of Arsenal’s players by being fraudulent and paying money that they didn’t have - any Arsenal fan that doesnt think they should be dissolved as a club isn’t a real gooner.
Coming from the fan of a club who’s whole foundation is built on a promotion “earned” while not finishing in the promotion places.
Not to mention Wengers title winning teams were funded by money you didn’t have.
But anyone who grew up in the UK with them buying leagues after coming from the championship/bankruptcy/mid table fucking despises them. They
The year before he took over we finished top 4 without a trophy, a result you lot spent all summer telling us is a massive success.
Neither in itself. 99% of the time the winners are who strike the best balance between the two.
Even us of this season and last had a strong defense or attack at any one time bar the Lamps period (currently we’re scoring loads and under Potter despite everything we had the third best defense ITL).
Not saying is right but it literally happened ages ago.
That cretin Matt Law (who’s lucky to even have a job after the Rudiger situation let alone still working closely with the club) is looking to cash in on fans anger after the Newcastle game.
I’ll worry when stop making rival fans angry.
May have worked had he not won more than Arsenal since 2021 or be more succesful on the content as a man than you lot are a club.
I’ll probably have to say David Luiz.
I mean he was still very good but in his first couple of months I genuinely though we had a player who was going to revolutionize the CB position.
Last season wasn’t as good for them as their position suggested.
They were 16th on XP, scored 7 more than their XG and conceded a whopping 18 less then XGA which was the worst in the league.
I mean these quotes are effectively discussing current field of play in the PL aswell.
The FA Cup is obviously bigger but the fact its a question is a sad indictment of modern English football.
For most clubs and fans these cups are a mere afterthought compared to the true holy grail of finishing in one of the first 3 loser positions behind City.
I actually liked his work upto and including the 2018 world cup but since then I’ve not been a fan atall.
Yes he got to the Euro final but also shit bed during the game, giving Saka the 5th pen (who was evidently overwhelmed by the occasion) was one of the most mind-blowing decisions I’ve ever seen.
I will give him credit for creating a better atmosphere in England camps and it being a place players are looking forward to going to (compared to the golden generation era by their own admission) but I fear we’re going to waste this generation of players under Southgate the same way Belgium did entrusting Hazard/KDB and co to Wilmots, such a shame.
I think anyone who delivers in clutch moments that lead to silverware is fair game for the award.
It’s when stat padders start getting it under the guise of “consistency” it becomes an issue.
Funny thing is PL fans/pundits will laugh at him and tell him to suck it then moan relentlessly when the Saudi League becomes big enough to do the exact same to thing to the Prem.
Take out a major bottle job
That shouldn’t be ignored though, blowing a three goal lead to the team traditionally known for big bottle jobs doesn’t get talked about enough.
Horses for courses as already alluded too.
For us Palmer was the better fit as we’re rightly or wrongly hoping Mudryk eventually becomes the fast, direct winger.
Tony Pulis and Rory Delap downvote this.
The best league in the world where the same team is going to inevitability win for the 6th season out of 7.
Football fans with this massive passion of wanting to see billionaires save as much money as possible.
No. It’s an extra chance of a trophy and frankly any team not named City should be aiming to get any trophy they can get their hands on.
