Who started the ridiculous notion that City were better without Haaland ?

I genuinely love how the media, analysts (who have won so much in their life) all try to justify their knowledge versus reality...

Nothing will ever beat this as a failed prediction -



Fair play to him for not deleting it though!

Really ?? Very good player but not on the level of KDB.

Agreed Oakie, Ødegaard is an excellent player and IMO we missed the boat with him, as at 24 he could eventually replace the legend that is KDB and allow us to rest the likes of Gundo, Rodders and KDB of course right now, in that incredible engine room..........

When it was being mentioned through the Winter, I don’t reckon we were a better team this season compared to last. I don’t think we played well at all in the lead up to and the aftermath of the World Cup.

From mid October to the beginning of February our record was:
LWWWLDWLWWL
P11 W6 D1 L4 F21 A12 GD+9 Pts19/33

Our only good performances in those eleven games were Leeds away and the second half come back against Spurs.

In reality it was that stupid World Cup disrupted the middle of our season. But I don’t blame anyone for thinking we looked poor at the time and looking back at how we played last season without Haaland, that we were a better team then.

Besides, we’ve won nothing yet this season and still might not for all we know. We could look back to last season and think we were a better team then as we won the league. Or we could end up winning the treble this season and have a claim to say we are the greatest team ever.

City, Madrid, Bayern and PSG had the most players at the world cup iirc, all reigning champions and all have struggled to some extent this season compared to last
