Our treble winning season was absolutely transformed by two things. Dias returning from injury and Pep fucking off Cancelo and moving to four CBs at the back
Haaland was already ripping up the record books from day one
But ultimately it was our defending that won us the treble
Still needed the goals no matter how well the team was defending. As I said strikers are normally the players who you pay record money for.

Pep said it himself "We have proper defenders now." Ferguson always said it's a strong defence that wins you titles and he should know. With the talent we have in our squad we are always likely to score so keep a clean sheet and we win most games. Pep may have been spoilt at Barcelona with Messi and co in that they could outscore most teams. I think he now understands the value of a strong defence.

We win both finals by a single goal in the end. Haaland will hog the headlines of course, but we scored quite a bit less than recent seasons overall
Defending actually won us the treble

Absolutely
 
Harry Kane will retire without a single trophy
Football is as much about defending as attacking
There’s a goal at each end
But strikers still command the highest fee. He hasn't gone for cheap. That is why PSG threw money at Mbappe (although there are limits)

Kane has scored for fun at Spurs but they've won fuck all, without a balanced team you win fuck all
But he is their highest paid player. And although we did end up with Haaland we did make an attempt to sign Kane. Pep did manage to bridge the gap but we were still were missing a natural finisher when Aguero finally left.
