It's Quiet 18 - Wanna ring the bell?

Liverpool: Imagine they lost VVD for free (their captain), lost Jota for a few million (impact sub with a lot of goal contributions), lost Salah for the next 4-5 months, and weren't able to sign their top 2 targets for midfield, and things are not advancing on the 3rd midfield option..

United: Lost a top aging midfielder for free (Casemiro), lost their most creative player (Bruno) and a good impact sub (Garnacho), weren't able to sign their top 2 midfield targets, and things are not advancing on the 3rd midfield option.

My question is: what would some of you say about this? I am 100% certain all the defenders here would be mocking their window every single day. Why such a different measurement then? Hypocrisy at its best.

Sure Gvardiol and Kovacic are good signings, but that doesn't mean we are fine (even Pep has talked about it and people here are still denying it).

You're comparing us to the two scum clubs, I hope you're got your big boy pants on because I suspect you're going to get laughed at a lot.

That is the exact window we have right now. Or how is it different?

Are we a better team than them? Of course, but that is obvious. I am just pointing out the hypocrisy in some of our fans saying the window has been fine, when they would be laughing and mocking any other team with a window like ours. But it is football, and most of the fans think everything their team does is perfect and everything the rivals do is shit.

Because we're starting from a much higher base than either of them, not only is our squad stronger, we also have Pep. There literally is no club around you can compare us to especially when you make a point of calling everyone hypocrites who don't agree with you.

In fact, a "fuck you" comes to mind TBH.

Again, obviously our base is higher (which I said in my post), so obviously we will be fine (fighting for all the titles). And Pep is the best ever, you could give him an even worse squad and he would still be fighting for titles.

In isolation though, no one can say this window has been good for City (in fact if we didn't have a brilliant academy and making some good money there, the window could easily be a 3/10), which is what some are saying. That is where the hypocrisy comes in.

I am just saying it's funny see how the goal posts of some have been changing all summer long from: we will get stronger and sign Bellingham and keep our best players to we will have 4-5 new exciting signings, to we are the treble winners and we are still competitive and now we can give the youngsters a shot.

Or are you gonna tell me the discourse hasn't changed?
