find it bizarre they're suddenly all on City player/Dias bandwagon. Kev's record breaking season got less kudos than this, let alone all of Kun's and Dave's over the years.

There's a slow but perceptible sea change taking place, there was the usual bollocks being spouted on Talkshite the other day amongst a group of know nothing numpties, about the fear of money bags City dominating the league. But it was noticeable how it got shot down quite rapidly by a few of the sentient ones comparing us to Utd and Chelsea's history of big spending.

There does come a time when the bullshit piles up, when the stink becomes overwhelming, that folk cry no more bullshit!

just need PIGMOL sorting out. Surprised at the unanimous praise for Dias given it challenges their narrative for their beloved Vigil Van Dijk.
 
Perhaps media is constrained by editorial policy targeting clicks etc. whereas this allows more actual choice by writers?

I really think there has been a change in the broader media in the last 12 months. It is almost as if the CAS case lanced the boil. It was a comprehensive de-bunking of the City are state-funded and financially corrupt argument. For anyone who has bothered to read the detailed evidence it was clear that City had been stitched up and the comments from the judges confirmed that.
There is still a small group of hard-core City-haters in the media out there but they are a minority and most of them are not really significant figures, many are freelances who are desperate to make a living. They look increasingly pathetic and out of touch with the mainstream.
Most of us are guilty of highlighting the negative coverage on this forum. But I honestly believe our general coverage has been more positive. Sometimes that makes the fake news narratives stand out even more. One thing i would say is that we are increasingly hated by rival fans....but that's just pure jealousy and fear.

A main reason will be that City won the league comfortably, and many of the teams have been a bit flaky.

Over 50% of the vote went to City players - presumably Kane, Salah, Fernandes got much of the rest.

One notable thing is that he's the first defender to win in 32 years - more than the entire PL period, and there have been some good defenders over that time.
