Constant comments from the media about City winning the treble as if it’s already won - basically setting us up to demean our achievement if we win it, and to hammer us if we don’t. Like most Blues I am taking fuck all for granted but sick to death of hearing how much better their achievement was - including Dwight Yorke yesterday that united’s was better cos they did it first - fucks sake that makes Preston the best ever top division champions!

IF (and I emphasise IF) we win it -

1. We qualified for the CHAMPIONS league as CHAMPIONS of England, the rags qualified as runners up

2. They finished second in their Champions League group, we finished top

3. We won the PL with 89 points, they finished with 79 (and we eased off in the last 2 games and dropped 5 points, they didn’t as they only won the league by a point)

4. In the league we scored 14 more and conceded 4 less goals than them

5. In the fa cup they were drawn at home every round, we were drawn away once. We scored 7 more (in 2 less games) than them, conceded 2 less, and most importantly we beat those cunts

6. IF we win the CL we will have done it with an extra knockout round to navigate, so far more chance of losing

7. In the knockouts to get to the final the scum beat 7th and 8th in Serie A, we beat the 1st and 3rd in the Bundesliga, 2nd in La Liga and CL holders (late edit)

8. As mentioned below the rags won 5 games to win the CL; IF we win it we will have won 8

9. As best as I can tell in the summer before the season concerned City had a net transfer spend of £20m positive and rags £10m negative

So based on the objective statistics, IF we win the treble, I don’t think there’s any doubt who the better team is, but of course we have to win the CL first. Anyone who thinks Fergiscum’s 99 rats were better and played better than Pep’s 23 geniuses is seriously deluded.

Got to totally agree.

Guys don't forget we're the only team to win the Domestic Treble so if we win it Saturday that'll be what no other British team has done.
 
This will be a tough game,IM are no mugs and play a typical Italian style of game.

They will sit back,break up play using every trick in the book and use the darkest of arts.

Patience and discipline may be the key along with ruthless finishing.

Any complacency or entitlement is mis placed, we will have to graft very hard to win and our total support will be key !!

We have played more knock out games than them, they went into round of 8 due to the smaller format of the champions league.We went into a round of 16, a lot more jeopardy for it to go wrong.
 
I'd say that IF City win the treble it smashes their treble for achievement - as per the OP's list, and also on the basis of the relative money united had in comparison to the rest of the PL, most of the CL, and almost all of the FA cup affiliated teams.

I'd say united's treble can be celebrated as one of the biggest and unexpected comebacks (only in the CL final) - hence it's position in united fan's minds as the 'best' on how close they came to not doing it, with Bayern snatching a loss from the jaws of victory, but there is no way other than that, that a City treble, IF it occurs, is not the best.
