They tried stitching us up with the whole ffpr. They had tapped up Brahim Diaz. They failed with Sergio Aguero but they gave it a good go earlier on in his City career.

A success? Only one team did better than us? Liverpool, Bayern, Madrid, Juve, PSG all did better than us. We're not some small club that only competes domestically, we're one of the elite in Europe and they are our rivals.
Khaldoon himself said it wasn't a successful season. Our standards are different. We've spent the most money in world football, a midtable finish 15 years ago is the same as finishing 18 points behind last season.
We're a different team than we were 15 years ago with different goals. If we don't win major trophies, it's a disappointing season.
In premier league the league we actually play in.
All top teams spend money took Liverpool 30 years and shit loads to win the league the rags spent a billion since fergie left for what? Yes our standards are high from the men who run the club and that’s right as a fan hey let’s not get like the scum the scousers entitled fuckers.

That isn’t a “favour clause”.They tried stitching us up with the whole ffpr. They had tapped up Brahim Diaz. They failed with Sergio Aguero but they gave it a good go.

Write down their 20 put it next to ours, see if you still think they are stronger.united nowhere near.All the top sides have the same depth, and us, Liverpool, Chelsea,utd can all name a really strong eighteen now. Nothing in it now.

It would be still a step closer although it won't cheap deal.

We play in the PL yes but we're not rivals with the likes of Palace. Our rivals are clubs of similar stature; so the very best in Europe.
There's a middle ground. Yes we're a fundamentally different fanbase to United and Liverpool because our rise was something almost unique. But there's a middle ground. We have to acknowledge what the club targets every season and mirror it in our own expectations. On the whole of it, no matter what happens, we'll always be happy to have the memories of the last 10 years. But like players like Bernardo have said, we do have to expect more of the players because our mindset has to be to compete for major trophies every season.

There's literally no such thing mate.
