    I love how you mentioned that Man City had success in the past while showing a clip of their 1969 FA Cup win, too many people repeat the same tired narrative that they have no history and were born in 2008, the same applies to Chelsea and PSG before their takeovers.

      @@bipin249 Ok so Chelsea and City have had more success in recent years, so what? History means nothing in terms of performance in the present. No disrespect to the likes of Arsenal, United and Liverpool but to be honest, I imagine having more money than other teams was probably a fair part of their successes back in the day, especially in the 80s and 90s as the commercial side of things started to gain importance.
      Chelsea's major honours list before Abramovich:
      First Division: 1954-55
      FA Cup: 1969-70, 1996-97, 1999-00
      League Cup: 1964-65, 1997-98
      Cup Winners Cup: 1970-71, 1997-98
      In terms of other trophies:
      Second Division: 1983-84, 1988-89
      Full Members Cup: 1985-86, 1989-90
      Community Shield: 1955, 2000
      UEFA Super Cup: 1998
      Granted in the eyes of the likes of Arsenal, United and Liverpool, it's pretty mediocre but most team's records are quite frankly, mediocre in comparison to those three and overall I'd say Chelsea's is fairly respectable. Besides, in the few years before Abramovich took over I'd say that Chelsea were starting to establish themselves among the top teams in the league. In the five seasons before Abramovich took over they finished 3rd, 5th, 6th, 6th and 4th. It wasn't as though they came from absolutely nowhere. Yes the money helped a lot, but it would've helped any team a lot.

    i still get goosebumps watching the qpr title decider. and in all honesty, I think at least for me in the modern era of man city, the 2012 side will always rank as number one. and not because of the quality in the side, or how fantastic of a manager Mancini is, but rather because of the milestone they achieved for the club and what happened thereafter. the mystique around that side is something that is just unquantifiable.

    United don't even need to spend a lot, if there was a compentent DOF, and let's say within 2 years owners inject 200m of pounds, smart DOF would be able to make a team in those 2 years. With sales and buys.

    For a purely football stand point we all have to admit that big clubs like United have heavy influence over the rules created and basically have locked out any other club getting the status they have and share with the big clubs. So this is basically the only way to get to United’s level in the modern game and it’s just nice to an extra team provide competition. Even if the other big clubs are bad at investing the billions they have

    22:04, actually, City would have still won the title because this is how they determine teams positions:
    1. Points
    2. Goal difference
    3. Goals scored
    4. Points in head to head matches
    5. Away goals in head to head matches
    6. The position is shared, unless the position involved is the title, a qualification to a competition, or relegation - then a playoff match at a neutral venue will decide.

    • @FootballIconic

      This rule was only introduced in 2019. Before that, it was points, goal difference, goals scored, then if all equal, playoffs

      I have a suggestion:
      SA Soccer team and SA Rugby team had both been banned from international competition from the 60s to the 90s.
      Yet, since the ban was lifted, the Bafana Bafana have been relatively crap, only winning 1 Afcon and not making it past the group stages of the world cup. And the Springboks have won a handful of Rugby Championships and a joint record 3 Rugby World Cups.
      How can this be?

    MC really evolved when Pep arrived n settled. It needs a great coach to identify players to blend into a team. Greater to blend them into a juggernaught. Up to club to find the means to find the means to get players. Some clubs have said NO. paradox. If owners are digging into their pockets, why can't they do so? Poor business if Corp wants their name on team, n willing to pay, who is to say no?
