Completely agree. They've been bought by the vip hospitality at Eastlands and the easy press access.
It's an absolute scandal that a deplorable regime has bought up our entire league, yet the press prefer to jump on the ABU bandwagon in pursuit of cheap clicks.
Absolutely 100% correct.
'Good for football' what city are doing they say. fecking shameless.
All the while pumping out stories on the front pages of the antics of oil rich dictators and/or endless oil wars.
Sorry to get somewhat political but the sheer nerve of them and how few people seem to actually see it for what it is really bothers me.
City are definitely not the best team in Europe. The fact that the English league has been a shadow of itself for a long time means that people overrate the best team in the PL.
Their forward line is Sterling, Aguero/Jesus, Sane. Which is 3 young talents and one experienced world class player. Barcelona have Messi in extremely good form, PSG have Neymar and Cavani who are ridiculously good. All 3 players would improve City's team significantly.
Their midfield is their strongest area; but Barca still have Busquets going strong and an Iniesta rested in league games due to Coutinho's arrival. Paulinho is also showing that he's a very good player. Bayern also have a strong midfield; Alcantara is a majestic player; Vidal and Martinez are veterans.
City's defence is their weakest area; and sacrifice defensive qualities for the sake of the system. Guardiola defenders are exposed again and again when they cannot dominate a game because they must play in compromising decisions in order to retain possession.
City have yet to play a team with the same fire power as them, and as a result they have looked amazing. Because that is what Guardiola does; when he has the better team he dominates the game.
Totally agree. It happened a few seasons ago as well - I remember Robbie Savage stating then that he believed city were the 'best club side on Earth'.
They are good, and are also highly overrated. When they start beating Barca, PSG, Real, Bayern and winning CLs and winning back to back PLs at the same time, ok. 'Til then, it's just talk.
