That Utd team was absolutely class tbf as hard as it is for me to admit it. Van der sad, Gary neville, Rio, vidic, evra, carrick, Scholes, Ronaldo and rooney would walk into this City team and pep would admit that himself. What this city team does have though is youth on their side and the ability to improve a lot

bollocks would they.

It's 3 in 7 seasons.

still 3 in 6 years.

I don't agree, at all, that City have to repeat it to be classed as great. First of all, next season we will have different players, rivals will have different managers, etc. So seasons can't really be compared

Second of all, in what other field are people told to repeat once in a life time achievements? Did Shawshank Redemption have a sequel? No. What about the bloke who invented electricity? No one told him that 'its a good idea, but what else have you got'...

Arsenals invincibles are lauded as a great team did they win the league the next season? No they did not.

But isn't it usually the ex-players of the previously successful teams who start this rhetoric , followed by the Rag/Dipper loving media ?

Can't believe i stayed up for a 2 min pat on the head and sent off with you are not a great team ringing in my ears

So, 3 Premier league titles in 6 years isn't worthy of being called a great team? Pray tell who else has done anywhere near that? Almost forgot the 3 cups.

7 years.

The context of the complete history of top flight football you mean?

Its over one season. A magnificent season it is and as I said, this team will go down in history as the greatest ever team over one single season.

Now I still do not think, as good as we have been that this team would beat the United team of 2006-08. I would take their defence over ours and their attack over ours.
We have broke all the records for a single season but that rag team won consecutive league titles and reached consecutive champions league finals.

Now we may go on to retain the title and reach champions league finals, but at this precise moment, regardless of the records we have broken, I do not think our current team is the best I have seen in premier league history

Well I disagree with you ..this City team is the best the Premier league has ever seen...
100 points is proof enough
