It’s also a quote from this really thick Chelsea fan who is always convinced City will completely flop in the league.

 

[Sheik Battle and Goal]

Thats their narrative. City made a mistake letting both world class players leave. So transparent

Different spin when Ferguson let Keane and Beckham go. Acts of pure genius then.

Right to time to , squad needed rebuilding, time to build another dynasty etc etc

IIRC, he has quite the impressively consistent track record of predicting us to finish second or below in every season we have won the league.

Nedums predictions suggests hes after more media work.

It’s a perfectly reasonable view that we won’t win it this year. It could easily be a season of adjustment for us, plus the World Cup is likely to throw a curveball into the mix, fuck knows where.

I‘d put Liverpool as joint favourites and wouldn’t be remotely surprised if they won it.

People take retaining the title as a given, it’s difficult to do and winning three in a row is equaling records. Last team to do it was the rags in the late noughties.

We are changing our system to accommodate a striker, there will be adjustments to make this work.

Yep, add Stam to that who even Whiskey Nose admitted was a huge mistake. Despite the press having you believe that Wes Brown and John O’shea were the second coming of Defenders

Think they've got a lot less players going to the World Cup which might play nicely for Liverpool.
Champions League is totally unaffected by the mid-season break. Don't care what anyone says our club needs to win it.

We do know exactly how they’ll play and I’m hoping a few other managers have cottoned on…
For us, I think a lot depends on how Pep is planning to change things up. I’m fairly certain we won’t be playing the same type of football we’ve been playing for the last couple of years and I’m looking forward to it immensely.
