They won the Champions League and got 97 pts.... It is fairly obvious City had the better season, but pointless to suggest Liverpool were not also brilliant.
'That team who won the CL and accumulated 97 pts were fucking shite weren't they?' Sounds stupid
If you acknowledge another team has had a good season, you won't spontaneously combust .
I never said they were shit or didn't have a good season? Do you always put words in other people mouths?
I think "you" need to calm down in case you spontaneously combust.
The point being made was that the press were somehow inferring that they were on our level and that the only difference between us was 1 point.
They had a good season, that is all. They had a genuine 7 point advantage at one point and bottled it. I can assure you if we had done that the narrative would have been very different.
To get to within that one point, they had to sacrifice other games. They couldn't compete on a like for like level even though we were also defending the title.
They have been VERY lucky with injuries. Dived and cheated their way through, and STILL failed.
This year they have been ahead because of our failures. They haven't stepped up. They are also still being lucky with injuries.
Even if they go 9 points ahead doesn't mean they will win the league. But the press will be crowning them as champions.
They have been good for a while now, but i still won't say they are equals. They have won a knockout competition, that doesn't automatically make them brilliant.
However if they do win the league then i would be the first to say they deserved it...
