On literally every single measure, if we beat Inter, our achievements will be better.
For PL, 10 more points, 14 more goals, 18 better goal difference.
For FA Cup, excluding replays, 11 more goals and two more wins
For CL, 1st in group rather than 2nd, 8 more goals in KO phase, 10 better GD so far.
Of course, all will be for nothing if we lose on Saturday.

Plus this season was fucked up by the World Cup.

Robbie Savage actually said tonight on 606 that he thinks we need to win 4 in a row before we can be called the best team ever.

Then a united fan said 3 united players would get on our team, when asked who he said Martinez Rashford and Garnacho.
Natalie Pike pointed out that Garnacho can’t get on the united side

If we win four, Savage would say it needs to be five. He can think what he likes - no team has been better that this City side. It’s changed football for the better and it’s killing them :)

By every given parameter ours is by far better

Their’s is undoubtedly the best treble of PL, CL and FA Cup ever done by an English team, whatever parameters you’re using, I am afraid.
Now, come 10 or 11 o’clock next Sunday, that might well not be true but, as of today, it is.

Already trending.

Listen to the Forest fan.

Usual shite, then he gives City credit, then he goes into why United’s treble win will be better than City’s (possible) treble win.

Then read the comments. Very few people agree with the Forest fan.

I really enjoyed watching him react to Gundogans 1st goal yesterday. But I can't be arsed watching anymore of the twat. ‍

Couldn’t agree more. Lineker was wholly respectful towards Pep in that interview.

Lineker loves Pep.

Take a bow Martin. Thats what I call proper journalism. Puts amateur journalists like Jackson to shame who this morning revelled in making Haaland seem like a Weghorst in his player summary giving him a 5.

To get a Ziggy reference in too? Pure genius.
The man is a giant amongst a fetid, rotten, racist, cesspool of mediocrity that now sadly masquerades as the British media.

She's bloody good to get that in,

It‘s been notable the number of commentators who have been desperate to evaluate two events comparatively, before one of them has actually occurred.

Anything could happen next Saturday and until it does no-one can objectively compare the two things in the round (assuming that is the outcome).

It betrays the absence of objectivity these commentators are deploying to the task.

How can you compare two events if one of them is incomplete, unless you’ve already made your mind up, irrespective?

The mental gymnastics some of these cunts engage in really is a sight to behold.

Disappointing use of “cunts” rather than the current forum de rigeur “nonces” there G.

Hi s only error was writing that Bernie passed the ball back to our goalie from the kick off. As we all know it was Ilkay so perhaps he was also the "provider" in his own goal. ;)

The thing is I was convinced that Bernardo was the goal scorer!
It was only when I saw the ball next to Gundogan‘s name on the big screen that I realised, my GLW looked at me as if I was happy daft.
I then asked her why Bernardo wasn’t playing to which she said he’s over there! I then wondered why his name wasn’t on the big screen again she thought I had really lost it, well how was I supposed to know they’d spelled Bernardo as Silva!
Okay I had had a few but, felt great.
Looking back today I truly believe I was in shock for the first ten minutes after Gundo scored.

Both the rags and German rags had to qualify for Champions League via a play-off.
They were drawn together in the same group drawing both games

They rags won 2 drew 4 finishing 2nd
They qualified as the 2nd best runner-up then beat Inter and Juve to get to the final.

Edit: Also, there were 10 Germans in the Bayern staring line-up. I think that tops goldybollocks idea of the rags not buying anyone or having a team full of home-grown players..

You should phone in talksport and tell him :-)
