We all know it’s not likely to be any of our players, but which out of the above would you choose?
I’m torn between Gundogan & Cancelo

Gundog for me, but Cancelo has been brilliant

By agenda finder general Frank Sinatra.

Someone should tell him there is no agenda against the agenda.

Like an agenda version of Inception?

Yeah it was bollocks mate. 500 wins not newsworthy apparently. Imagine if it was Klopp...

Meanwhile Sky have yet another Liverpool title documentary airing for the first time today

To be honest, even the most hardened of doubters can be under no illusion now. The introduction of UEFA FFP, leading to the Sky 4 letter urgently requesting PL FFP. The ‘Taking a pinch’ after being scammed by UEFA who made a last ditch amendment to the rules after David Gill was drafted in to oversee the process. Then, amongst other things, onto the disqualification from UEFA competitions and staggering fine that was ruled on with no evidence at all. Oh, and those nice little requests to CAS from the ‘8ful 8’ to try to ensure we couldn’t play while the case was ongoing.

Combined with the absolute hatred and bile that was spouted by our very own media, some even commissioned by other members of the PL to do us more harm, then it was abundant see that is was ‘Clear 1°and Organised’.

I question the word 'agenda' too but l am 100% sure that a lot of anti City skullduggery is going on and there is collusion from other clubs and the media in many ways.

Still doesn't make sense. Downplaying City, fair enough, but downplay the league and you are indirectly insulting your customer fan base.
These algorithm strategies media companies run by are strange to me.

Not really mate - the customer fan base doesn’t want to read about how great the League is, they want to read about how great their team is. They don’t give a shit about the League, per se - just their team’s performance in it.

If City win the league, it’s been a shit league because their team didn’t win it.

Whereas just look at Liverpool’s win last year - an absolute classic. One of the best seasons ever! Will be remembered for generations to come.

Even though everyone knows it was a mess of a season die to Covid.

They use this table to prove his credentials "No team has won more points since his arrival" (published 29th Jan). Note City are 1 point behind and a game in hand. Might just be the cynic in me but I wonder if the author was thinking "Better issue this article today, before the weekend games, if City win and Reds don't then this table (and whole article is invalid)".

Quite possibly

Janusz Michallik is my new favourite analyser, maybe a video of this should be sent to the BBC/SKY/BT with a note saying this is how you talk about football in a professional non-biased fashion.

Wankers

It's quite easy then, just watch ESPN if you want to see fair, unbiased reporting on City and give the others a swerve.

Let's put this myth to bed
Liverpool didn't win the league due to it being interrupted by Covid
They were out of sight before the season came to a halt and they've been pretty hit and miss since project restart

The break last season favoured the rags, as Leicester fell off and the rags, with some VAR help, improved

Neil Ashton must be nipping over to BBC United Football, Mediacity, every Morning for the daily brief.
