Pablo Posted July 13, 2020 Posted July 13, 2020 Citys dominance will continue, no doubt. If they win the FA Cup this season, they will have won 7 of the last 9 available domestic trophies. Unreal that. Quote
Johnnyrotten Posted July 13, 2020 Posted July 13, 2020 As good as City are (going forward) and that's a great stat, its also a massive failing of the other clubs not to compete better. Liverpool arent interested in domestic cups, and the likes of Arsenal and Spurs should be better but have been managed poorly. I feel like Big Sam or Chris Wilder at Arsenal or Spurs would have won something. I guarantee they wouldnt be passing it around at the back like Arsenal and David Luiz would be nowhere near that defence. Quote
Pablo Posted July 13, 2020 Posted July 13, 2020 City are the first team EVER to complete the domestic trebble, yet its hardly mentioned. Quote
Rudy Posted July 13, 2020 Posted July 13, 2020 I can tell you from first hand experience the hierarchy at City want to win everything Every cup, every league, every game at every level. They want it all. It’s an incredible mentality to have Quote

Their mentality is why haven’t we won that? What can we do to achieve that. Youth players are coached to develop, city want them to win from an early age so it’s just in them to win Quote
Pablo Posted July 13, 2020 Posted July 13, 2020 Very good chance they end up with 3 trophies this season, again. Quote
Pablo Posted July 13, 2020 Posted July 13, 2020 (edited) Wouldn't be too sure about that, good draw in the qtrs, and with Bayern drawn to play Barca. 1 off games now too. Edited July 13, 2020 by Pablo Quote
radcliffe white Posted July 13, 2020 Posted July 13, 2020 If they get past Madrid & probably juventus fair play to them, can’t see it myself Quote
Pablo Posted July 13, 2020 Posted July 13, 2020 2-1 up, and Juve not been great this season. Still feel that Bayern will win it, but Barca in a 1 off game is tough for them. Quote
Didledee Posted July 13, 2020 Posted July 13, 2020 (edited) If Barca play like they did vs Villareal away, they can win it/have a chance, but if they play like at the weekend vs Valladolid (despite a 1-0 win and Griezmann missing from 2 yards) and most of the season, they won't, they are far too easy to get at and too inconsistent, especially away from home. They've not had Frenkie De Jong since the restart (hasn't been spectacular, but he's better than playing Sergi Roberto in midfield) and with Messi anything is possible, but there's too many faults in the team, that even Messi's assists,goals and creativity sometimes ain't enough. Bayern or City for me, but I wouldn't say any team left are amazing, Bayern looked very good after the break, Real Madrid are relying heavily on penalties and set pieces to win and City's defence is questionable and they too are inconsistent away from home.

On a much smaller scale, we've just appointed someone, who, in his first interview has talked a far more positive game than we've had for a while. We're skint obviously, but it's refreshing nonetheless. Quote
