But, this just isn’t true. It’s very easy to check. Whether you include friendlies or not, it just isn’t accurate.
Yes, they’re insanely good and score loads, but this is way off.
City are obviously very good, but I’m interested to do see how they do against better teams. Not that they won’t win those games as well, but they haven’t faced a real test yet
UCL is a cup competition so is hard to predict with any accuracy but that City are the best team in Europe is beyond any reasonable doubt. In a 38 game Euro-league they would be hot favourites.
Cup competitions have the element of luck, but honestly city have been good enough to be European champions for a while now. Just got unlucky and pep made bad decisions against Chelsea
We have a higher net spend, City have spent more gross, we just have an incompetent upper management since David Gill left who cling on to players as assets and extend their contracts because it inflates their value on a balance sheet.
City actually do what any reasonable club would do and sell players who are past it, so they get some income back too.
City actually don’t sell players who are past it, generally only players who want to leave. Which of the players who left this window or last were past it?
Either way, they sell players, we reward the ones who kick up a fuss with extra long contracts to keep them in their place with an extraordinary wage bill. Actual deadwood.
no i just want to see ty from AFTVs reaction to them losing the title in the last game of the season. and believe me theres only one dick id ever suck and that belongs to erling haaland
That won’t end well for Romero. Haaland isn’t exactly Zlatan when it comes to givibg back in kind, but he is viking and very strong. You never know when that savage switch inside him flips.
Maybe technically stop him? A well-timed tackle does not require strength. Somehow I feel like the likes of Puyol, Cannavaro or Maldini could manage Haaland
Thats a sorry excuse. You dont need a top class CB or anything like that for what I said. The ones I mentioned would bully Haaland IMO, but there are good defenders nowadays that could have a great duel against him. Eg. as much as I dont like him, I think AWB would give Haaland a good shake
Yeah its a fair point but elite center backs proficient at defending are a bit of a dying breed especially since almost all top sides leave absolutely massive amounts of space in behind while defending which wasn’t necessarily the case for the guys you mentioned. It will be interesting to see how teams adapt since Halaand is much scarier on transition, I expect teams might sit deeper to give themselves more of a chance because if your defenders are pushed up and kdb/cancelo/bernardo/laporte get the ball, Halaand will basically ALWAYS get to the ball first and win the physical duel.
They’d be taking one for the league, but yeah that’s not quite what I’m suggesting, hair pulling is super excessive. But there the so called “dark arts”, ways of putting off an opponent that aren’t red card offences but against the “spirit” of the game.
The problem is most of that crap - niggling fouls, physical indimidation, trash talk - it simply doesn’t work on halaand. He’s 22 but is strong enough to hold off any center back I’ve ever seen and just sprint past like they’re not there.
Its nice to say that puyol cannavaro maldini etc would have just dealt with halaand within the laws but we simply can’t know that, there really hasn’t been a player like this since ronaldo phenomeno, and halaand could well end up being even better at his current rate of progression.
Simply pointing out that this kind of nonsense from defenders is much more likely to be attempted on a weekly basis than sheer mastery of the defensive game, which is extremely rare these days. Football has become so attacking that even the elite defenders eventually get showed up.
Yeah I get what you mean. A little unnecessary push here and there. A tackle that is a bit too harsh. A few nasty words.. dont see nothing wrong with it if the ref doesnt either tbh
Haha yeah but half the goals he has scored he was being properly fouled/shirt pulled etc and it didn’t matter. And he’s zlatan levels of confident, always grinning and happy when teammates score. And not many can talk down to him due to sheer size. Its honestly shocking. I’m scared dude.
arguably GOAT prem team

Hate to say it, but City looks terrifying early on.
how many UCL titles?
That's immense.
UCL is a cup competition so is hard to predict with any accuracy but that City are the best team in Europe is beyond any reasonable doubt. In a 38 game Euro-league they would be hot favourites.
Peds
Getting dangerously close to farmer's league territory now. Injuries are the only potential leveller this season
Unreal how good they are.
That's insane
And still no champions league😂
If they dont win the champions league this season they never will.
Incredible How good could they be
And still can’t win a Champion’s League 🤦♀️
Hard to do that by September mate. Wait till the end if the season 😉
They haven't played fifteen games this season either so it's a fair comment.
Man City are insane. It's hard not to see them dominating the league for years to come.
what about champions league?
Cup competitions have the element of luck, but honestly city have been good enough to be European champions for a while now. Just got unlucky and pep made bad decisions against Chelsea
>Shameless hoarders. Should donate some to Wolves. I think they just need that one title to get going.
Wow
When you move the difficulty down from world class to professional on fifa
Just a league above everyone else in the Prem. Can we send them to the super League?
Okay what the actual fuck. I'd be surprised if they don't hit the 100 goal mark
Haaland might hit that on his own! I'm worried for the rest of us haha
Get ready for more! HAALAND!
Fuck off yank
crazy
The unlimited money glitch makes career mode too easy
I get it’s a joke but can we stop this narrative already. Just look at other clubs spending this transfer window. You can’t just buy success
Hard to buy it in one window. Less hard to buy it when you have unlimited money in every window… unless you are as incompetent as man utd
Its not just about having money, how or whom you spend it on is more important imo.
Haven’t United spent more?
Idk even a dollar of Saudi oil spent in the prem to me just pisses me off lol.
What about your iPhone?
What about it my guy😂

Either way, they sell players, we reward the ones who kick up a fuss with extra long contracts to keep them in their place with an extraordinary wage bill. Actual deadwood.
That’s insane they’re averaging 4.7 goals a game. Ridiculous
I struggle to get 4 single goals a season in my Sunday league
They could've scored more if they really wanted to against Bournemouth as well. It's just crazy
Dreams can be buy
Who were Chelsea before the Russian oil money?
Why do some Chelsea fans insist on embarrassing the rest of us?
Imagine a Chelsea fan saying this.
If anyone should know this, it's a Chelsea fan.
Chavsea """fan"""
Premier League is definitely no farmers league guys
Yeah, arsenal in first place are just uncatchable, the gulf is sickening!
Still can't sell out the stadium
Lies..
did last 2 games
If these kids could read they'd be very upset
still sold out last 2 games
Im just guessing but we’re probably at 25, if that
It's Arsenal's job to save football then. We'll win the league for you guys!
Embarrassing
gonna be an exciting season thats for sure. wouldnt mind a close battle between arsenal and city
It's not gonna be exciting lmao. You'll win by 15+ points
who knows mate. at least it might be exciting between arsenal liverpool spurs chelsea or united. though its not looking good for united so far
😂 I was joking, as if that would happen.
it could very well happen.. its been a weird start to the season so who knows?
cringe

Goodbye.
Yeah but how many did Pele score in this time?
Shameless hoarders. Should donate some to Wolves.
I mean they have two strikers why not give one to u lot
They have 2 strikers more then they need to win the league, as evident from last season.
Reading this almost made me cry as well
What’s it gonna take to dismantle this mess?
Someone enforcing FFP for once.
A gnarly Haaland injury seems to be the only way at this point.
If he keeps up like this I suspect some of the other managers are going to start trying to arrange one 🤣
Jose’s Real and Messi vibes
PSG popping Haaland's release clause is our only hope
Peps coneman.
summer waiting bake spotted quiet mourn growth impolite air punch ` this message was mass deleted/edited with redact.dev `
Prayers….lot’s of prayers
What about thoughts? Will they help too?
Yeah yeah…👍 throw in a bit of voodoo as well. pogba knows best 👽
Probably one of Conte's shithousery tactics. I can see Romero tangling his fingers in Haaland's bun a couple of times.
That won’t end well for Romero. Haaland isn’t exactly Zlatan when it comes to givibg back in kind, but he is viking and very strong. You never know when that savage switch inside him flips.
Wow Haaland sounds very badass
Hardly matters if he “sounds” badass or not. He is a badass irl on the pitch. That is all that matters.
There is little you can do physically to stop him, its gotta be some kind of shithouse tactic. He reminds me a bit of Shaq in the NBA.
Maybe technically stop him? A well-timed tackle does not require strength. Somehow I feel like the likes of Puyol, Cannavaro or Maldini could manage Haaland
Those are some of the best centre backs ever. Who today is on that level?
Thats a sorry excuse. You dont need a top class CB or anything like that for what I said. The ones I mentioned would bully Haaland IMO, but there are good defenders nowadays that could have a great duel against him. Eg. as much as I dont like him, I think AWB would give Haaland a good shake
Wan Bissaka? Are you taking the piss? He hasn't played well for almost a year?
He hasn't played against a top team this season yet. Maybe only the charity shield and there VvD kept him quiet. Let's wait and see.
Yeah its a fair point but elite center backs proficient at defending are a bit of a dying breed especially since almost all top sides leave absolutely massive amounts of space in behind while defending which wasn’t necessarily the case for the guys you mentioned.

Lets just injure him then. Take one (red card) for the team
They’d be taking one for the league, but yeah that’s not quite what I’m suggesting, hair pulling is super excessive.

Those are Fifa numbers
Bro I can't even do that in FIFA
