Re: ALL Transfer talk - merged thread
At best we are going to sign 3 very good players and we are going to let a good few go - which won't be enough to lay a glove on the oil cheats, so another pointless campaign begins trying to qualify for the tournament we couldn't win before oil money took over, let alone after it
What a miserable merry go round

Re: ALL Transfer talk - merged thread
I developed that level of despondency a few months back, if a team were to somehow win 20 games in a row city would just rattle off 25. It’s all so utterly pointless and boring.SteveO 35 wrote: ↑Sun Jun 11, 2023 7:01 amAt best we are going to sign 3 very good players and we are going to let a good few go - which won't be enough to lay a glove on the oil cheats, so another pointless campaign begins trying to qualify for the tournament we couldn't win before oil money took over, let alone after it

With Bayern, Barca & Madrid all now in major decline they’ve a free run at completely dominating both domestically and in Europe for the foreseeable.

Was thinking this. There is literally no one in Europe that will rival them. Wouldn’t surprise me if they win the quadruple next season.rodders999 wrote: ↑Sun Jun 11, 2023 9:40 amI developed that level of despondency a few months back, if a team were to somehow win 20 games in a row city would just rattle off 25.

I get that we are all p1ssed off with the way our season collapsed, and maybe this air of resignation has a lot to do with the belief that we have too many bottlers in our club, but honestly this citeeh team is not on same level as previous city teams and we are talking them up like they are best team ever Their backline is anything but rock solid and they have resorted to playing centre backs in full back positions, their captain looks set to leave, and what will happen when pep fcuks off ? I would suggest that they have a big summer ahead of them too - yes they have a deeper squad than everyone else and can therefore rotate more, but they had some poor results against average teams this season too
Re: ALL Transfer talk - merged thread
I agree they've had better teams but they are still miles ahead of everyone else which makes it even more galling because we all know £500m of investment will appear at some point to make them even stronger. Liverpool get close - fine, go and get a 50+ goal freak of nature to burn them off. Next season, who knows? Whichever top world player emerges, they will effectively have first pick.augie wrote: ↑Sun Jun 11, 2023 11:10 amBobbyPires7 wrote: ↑Sun Jun 11, 2023 10:15 amWas thinking this.

Imagine not having your best ever team and winning the treble by swatting aside clubs like Bayern Munich and Real Madrid, both of whom were comprehensively beaten.
Its the end mate. They are a best priced 8/11 to win the league again next season and you might as well lump on it now. They'll beat us home and away again and only boredom will prevent them eventually becoming the next invincibles - I think that will be their next target now, having done the rest of it
Couldn't be less excited about a new season

Re: ALL Transfer talk - merged thread
I can see your point about this not being their best ever PL team Augie, that was probably the team that got 100 points but at the first sign of their title being under threat this season they rattled off 12 (comfortable) wins on the bounce to win the league and if they needed to win the last 2 you can bet your life they’d have made it 14 wins in a row, making an absolute mockery of the supposed competitiveness of this league.
They will be clear favourites for all 4 competitions next season and could easily hoover up the lot, nobody will stop them in the league or Europe so it just depends on how seriously they take the domestic cups to see if they win everything. What an utterly joyless, soulless bunch of plastic c.unts they are.

Showing my age I know, but I do not believe that the quality of football worldwide is anywhere near the level it used to be - would this city team have beaten our invincebles for example ? To my mind you can only be the best team in that particular season and no doubt city were that, but lets be honest here and say that they have beaten an old real madrid team and a bayern team lucky to win their own league, plus if inter had a better striker last night that the fat c.unt lukaku, then maybe city would not have won last night ?

Re: ALL Transfer talk - merged thread
City are far superior to Bayern and Madrid (as the showed in previous rounds) but if they’d faced either last night they’d have got beat.
City definitely had scars from the final they no showed against the chavs and also from last year when they imploded in the last few minutes in the semi in Madrid.
Now that they’ve finally got the job done they’ll have no such hang ups next season where I fully expect them to retain it at a canter.
Pity because that fat 100 million quid c.unt could have inflicted serious psychological damage to them if he wasn’t such a useless fucking tub of lard.
Didn’t he miss an absolute sitter at the World Cup that sent the Belgians home too?
Fucking CUUUUUUUUUNT.

Kudos to the club, Edu and Arteta but especially the fans who’ve shown him serious man love all season for getting this one done.
Whatever else happens this window that’s the signing of the summer for us right there.
On the Rodders scale of approval this one gets a trousers down (maximum rating).
Personally fully expect to see him lining up come August at the Emirates. He's here for life
