whelk Posted 18 May, 2019 Author Posted 18 May, 2019 If De Bruyne stays fit next season they will be even stronger than this season. Incredible player. Even Mahrez has bedded in.
Jimmy_D Posted 18 May, 2019 Posted 18 May, 2019 Getting the first ever domestic treble is an amazing achievement, especially considering they beat a team with 97 points into 2nd place for the league leg of that treble.
angelman Posted 18 May, 2019 Posted 18 May, 2019 In other leagues..... while it might be unlikely, AS Monaco could be relegated this evening.
Batman Posted 18 May, 2019 Posted 18 May, 2019 How come the tater is unaware that sterling has already got a hattrick?
whelk Posted 18 May, 2019 Author Posted 18 May, 2019 City were in trouble til De Bruyne came on. Jenas says MOM as flipped this game on its head when he cane on with them 2-0 up
Jimmy_D Posted 18 May, 2019 Posted 18 May, 2019 How come the tater is unaware that sterling has already got a hattrick? Guessing because the first one wasn’t originally given to Sterling.
Batman Posted 18 May, 2019 Posted 18 May, 2019 Guessing because the first one wasn’t originally given to Sterling. It it was cleared up by HT by his own colleagues. Just a bit weird

LGTL Posted 18 May, 2019 Posted 18 May, 2019 Makes you wonder what the point is really, they're absolutely superb and almost makes you glad that Saints didn't luck their way to the final to face that.
whelk Posted 18 May, 2019 Author Posted 18 May, 2019 Makes you wonder what the point is really, they're absolutely superb and almost makes you glad that Saints didn't luck their way to the final to face that. Watford bottled it and made it easy for them. And didnt want to shoot but yeah not healthy
Saints foreva Posted 18 May, 2019 Posted 18 May, 2019 Makes you wonder what the point is really, they're absolutely superb and almost makes you glad that Saints didn't luck their way to the final to face that. Pretty much this. Football is ****e unless you're being bankrolled by a billionaire.
whelk Posted 18 May, 2019 Author Posted 18 May, 2019 It it was cleared up by HT by his own colleagues. Just a bit weird Haven’t heard it was Sterling’s definitively so not really weird.
qwertyell Posted 18 May, 2019 Posted 18 May, 2019 How come the tater is unaware that sterling has already got a hattrick?The FA gave the first to Jesus. The VAR people said they're not sure about it. Officially, it's still down as Jesus' goal. Not sure why they don't seem to have goal line tech in the FA cup, yet they do have VAR. Sent from my F3311 using Tapatalk
Jimmy_D Posted 18 May, 2019 Posted 18 May, 2019 bad for football Countless teams have been ‘bad for football’ over the years by dominating, often by outspending their rivals. Nothing lasts forever.

Professor Posted 18 May, 2019 Posted 18 May, 2019 Man City did not win the FA Cup, they bought it. That’s what the Premier League has come and as a competition for 20 clubs it’s a waste of time.

aintforever Posted 18 May, 2019 Posted 18 May, 2019 Man City did not win the FA Cup, they bought it. That’s what the Premier League has come and as a competition for 20 clubs it’s a waste of time. No different to Man Utd, Chelsea, Blackburn etc, just taken it to a new level. The Prem stopped being a competition for most clubs decades ago.
Saints foreva Posted 18 May, 2019 Posted 18 May, 2019 You know they were in 2nd place in PL with 60 minutes to go? Liverpool are also being bankrolled, regardless of what their fans say.
Lighthouse Posted 18 May, 2019 Posted 18 May, 2019 No different to Man Utd, Chelsea, Blackburn etc, just taken it to a new level. The Prem stopped being a competition for most clubs decades ago. If anything I actually like it. Seeing the rest of the top six b*tching about City is hilarious and hypocritical is roughly equal measures. "They bought the title!" scream fans of Utd, who spent £180m on two players.

I’m loving it, City fans have been through the lower leagues and put up with being ****e for decades, watching them dominate the likes of Man U, Arsenal and Liverpool is **** funny.
mrfahaji Posted 18 May, 2019 Posted 18 May, 2019 No different to Man Utd, Chelsea, Blackburn etc, just taken it to a new level. The Prem stopped being a competition for most clubs decades ago. This is the problem for me. I don't expect Saints to be on a level playing field with Man Utd and the rest, but it would be nice if it wasn't so extreme. Chelsea don't really have much room to complain, because they were the first to take spending to extreme, and City have then outdone them. I also find there's a difference between Jack Walker or Steve Gibson putting money into the club of their local team and Abramovich or Sheikh Mansour investing in a team because, well why not? Still glad they beat Liverpool to the title though.
benjii Posted 19 May, 2019 Posted 19 May, 2019 The last "true" champions were Leicester They cheated their way out of the Championship though. Sorry.
dellboypete Posted 19 May, 2019 Posted 19 May, 2019 They cheated their way out of the Championship though. Sorry. That's a fair point, but at least once in the prem they didn't buy it.
whelk Posted 19 May, 2019 Author Posted 19 May, 2019 They cheated their way out of the Championship though. Sorry. Did we cheat our way out of L1?
Give it to Ron Posted 19 May, 2019 Posted 19 May, 2019 I’m loving it, City fans have been through the lower leagues and put up with being ****e for decades, watching them dominate the likes of Man U, Arsenal and Liverpool is **** funny. I was watching the final in a pub in Brum a table full of blokes were embarrassed by the loud mouthed Scouse **** moaning at City including this gem. “We didn’t want to win FA,League or Prem we just want to win the Champions League” um is that because you lost them all you numpty?

CB Fry Posted 19 May, 2019 Posted 19 May, 2019 Did we cheat our way out of L1?I think he is referring to the Micky Adams era Leicester which used administration to clear the decks without punishment and immediately got promoted back. The points deduction rule was established after that. So technically they didn't cheat because the rules didn't exist. Anyway, these conversations are always the worst form of hypocritical humbug horsesh it. There us never any consideration that we have loads and loads more money than almost every other football club in Britain. More than Barnsley and S****horpe and Burton Albion and Shrewsbury and Swindon and Yeovil and Carlisle United and Huddersfield and Cardiff and Preston. That's not "cheating" or "buying success" that's fine because it's us. But any team that has more money than we do is a disgrace and buying the title and footballs ruined and waah waah wah waaaah wah wah waaaaaaah. Pearl-clutching holier than thou boll ocks.

angelman Posted 19 May, 2019 Posted 19 May, 2019 Usually when you are quite so dismissive, it helps to be less pithy and explain your thoughts a bit.

"True champions" though.
Maggie May Posted 19 May, 2019 Posted 19 May, 2019 Domestic treble - amazing achievement...for any other club.
Badger Posted 19 May, 2019 Posted 19 May, 2019 Domestic treble - amazing achievement...for any other club. Probably being underplayed by the media though with Man City doing it. Had it been Utd or Liverpool the Media W^nkfest would be in full swing for a week.

angelman Posted 20 May, 2019 Posted 20 May, 2019 Oooooh I'd forgotten about that. "True champions" though. Ah, the off season. 'Tis the time when Fry becomes even more supercilious than normal.
igsey Posted 21 May, 2019 Posted 21 May, 2019 Would enjoy them getting promoted though so we can hear "Frank Lampard's Derby sack Frank Lampard" follow by Chelsea fans calling for him to replace whoever is next on the manager merry-go round there.Looks like Chelsea may be getting him earlier than I expected... It's going to be awkward when he doesn't do very well but they don't want to sack a Chelsea legend
