The Greatest English Team Of All Time

[Johnny Mars Bar]

Literally the best team in the land and all the world.

Walker, Gundogan, De Bruyne, Ederson, Stones, Bernardo, Foden…

This group of players who were all on the pitch tonight have been in the squad that:
> Won the treble
> Won a domestic quadruple
> Won the Premier League 3 years running
> Are part of the only team to reach 100 pts in a season
> Hold the record for most goals and most wins in a league season
> Won the League cup four times in a row

If ANYBODY even begins to suggest this isn’t the greatest team English football has ever seen then they must be on some serious fucking medicament.

These guys haven’t just broken records. They’ve fucking flattened them.

It's also worth reiterating that those players you mentioned have all won 5 league titles in 6 years which is an astonishing achievement especially in this country.

Only English side to win the Domestic Treble and the Continental Treble.

ONLY English side.

It's this feat that elevates City above other great English sides. It's truly unique.

Plus, City are the only English side to score 150+ goals in all competitions: 4 times at that, 3 under Pep! Best football in the history of English football.

The greatest top 5 ever teams in English football by season, as judged by a panel of.... Me.

1) Man City 2022/23
2) Nottingham Forest 1978/79
3) Nottingham Forest 1979/80
4) Leicester 2015/16
5) Arsenal 2003/04

No room for the 1999 Raggies.

Not too sure about Leicester tbf

Who would you put there?. I was considering our Centurions or domestic treble winners, but couldn't ignore them.⁠

It been a long night , so be gentle with me ,
But what's the continental treble ?

 

[ShorehamCitizen]

Former European champions get promoted back to the top table after 23 years away and the European treble gets repeated after 24 years.

I wonder what historic thing will happen come the end of next season....

United fans in 2023
"You aren't all arrogant tosspots hated by the rest of the country"
2024 Err .... You can keep that one.

That's what they have been for decades!.

Hypocrites!

Not sure what the criteria are but I think the dippers must be in with a shout (late 70s).

The 1983 treble winners, worth a shout over Leicester. If this was premier league era then this is more easier!haha!.

Still, definitely us at the top and Arsenal in there.
