Cheating ****

He even had the forethought to deliberately clip his own leg so he had a ready made excuse if anyone did accuse him of diving.

Its remarkable the level of practice and effort these twats must put into perfecting the dark arts of cheating and manipulation, they are on a while different level to any other side

We keep hearing that Pound Shop Pep has revolutionised the rags. After 26 games they are 3 points better off than the joint effort of Wreck it Ralph and Ole the paperboys of last season. They also have a goal difference of plus 6.

They are only where they are due to a drop off of the likes of Chelsea and Liverpool, plus City above them not being as consistent as the last two seasons, giving the rags a misplaced belief they are a lot closer to us progression wise than what they really are.

United felt like they’d improved loads because they were closer to the top.

The reality is United are about the same level they have been for years but the top of the Prem isn’t as good as it has been in many of the last five or six years with City’s Centurions season in 2017-18, City+Liverpool’s amazing run-in with 98 and 97 points in 2018-19, Liverpool’s 99 points in 2019-20, then City+Liverpool’s title run-in last season.

This season, City are nowhere near as good as we were in those seasons above. We look at the level similar to 2019-20 (81 points) and 2020-21 (86 points) [which is around what we’ll achieve this season, I reckon]. Plus Liverpool and Chelsea have dropped away this season and allowed spaces in the Top 4 to open up.
