Look at the top 5/6 managers,we have never had it so good in the country,we put them all to shame because we are that goodIt's an interesting article and the author makes some good points. Of course as City fans we are all bound to be in broad agreement.
However, what he overlooks I think is that the 100 points should be considered in the context of the standard of opposition. West Ham might get 100 points if they played in the fourth division. Would that make West Ham the greatest team ever?
And I do think the premier league has been unusually dross this year. United are as bad as they've been for the last 5 years and the fact they managed to comfortably finish 2nd, says a lot, I think.
We probably are the greatest team ever, and I think we'll show that when we win it again next season. I don't buy the line that you have to win multiple back to back titles to qualify as being the best. But I do think there's an argument for saying that you have to do it against strong opposition.

They are all still some of the best managers in the game,have to wonder whether being up against pep was a mental barrier for them especially as the season went onThat's an interesting point. But whereas I'd accept Pochettino and Klopp are still top managers, you could debate whether Mourinho is, and Wenger most definitely isn't. Conte completely lost it this season as well.
Greatest P/L team - for me, it's us, this season. Taking off the blue-tinted specs though... "Invincible" Arsenal are up there too, but I think we're better.
Yup - but if your metric is - win if you can, but whatever you do, don't lose, then Arsenal's record moves to the forefront.10 Points better
33 Goals better
6 Wins better
32 Goal Difference better
There is no comparison really. It's just they went unbeaten, which is a great achievement but we smash them in every other department.
