I just hope they make the top 4 (along with us of course). I think it would be just as huge a boost to our rebuilding to keep Chelsea and Liverpool out of the top 4 as it is to qualify ourselves.
For all the largely unsubstantiated talk for years about how every player wants to go to City - there really has been little to no evidence of it at all. Yet every year, it’s declared early that player x would never join United if City/Pep want them too and I think this has only really just been evidenced the other day with Haaland. Chelsea, on the other hand, are a real irritant in the market and always seem to be direct competition to us. With Liverpool this murmuring about Mbappé needs to be put to bed sooner rather than later for my liking too - so both clubs missing out on CL football to us would help us next season too.
