triggs Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 Their squad isn't great at all for the money they spend. Guardiola wouldn't be able to automatically turn that team into champions either Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Interpolic Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 Aye I agree, but I'd still say that last season was nowhere near good enough. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mole_Toonfan Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 They are better than most think they are, they have finished top 2 for like 4 years running and the way some talk about them you would think they are a mid table team. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 Amazing how shit there defence is given how much money they've spent but obviously in the league it's masked by Silva and Aguero being two of, if not the best two, players in the league.

I said "for the amount of money they spend". Of course they're a good team but not near as good as Chelsea and I'd probably have Arsenal above them now too Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Interpolic Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 I'm basing it on the fact that they were no challenge to Chelsea whatsoever, did shite in the Champions League and didn't win any cups. The previous season they wouldn't have won the league if Liverpool hadn't faltered. I'd have expected Pellegrini to be under a bit of pressure.

Of course they're a good team but not near as good as Chelsea and I'd probably have Arsenal above them now too They clearly are, last season was an anomaly because City did fuck all for first half the year and Wenger did his best tinkerman impression. It won't happen again, i'm quite confident it will be a lot different this year and i wouldn't be surprised if City wins it a lot of people are sleeping on them.

Mole_Toonfan Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 How are they clearly as good as Chelsea? Chelsea are better in almost every area Two 1-1 draws last year between them, in a season where City were apparently shit according to most on here. As i said they are being slept on and the criticism of their team compared to others is OTT. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 They are better than most think they are, they have finished top 2 for like 4 years running and the way some talk about them you would think they are a mid table team. What's dragged them there is the same players from 4 years ago though. Hart, Kompany, Zabaleta, Silva, Nasri, Milner, Aguero, Toure Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colos Short and Curlies Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 I'm basing it on the fact that they were no challenge to Chelsea whatsoever, did shite in the Champions League and didn't win any cups. The previous season they wouldn't have won the league if Liverpool hadn't faltered. I'd have expected Pellegrini to be under a bit of pressure. I think City are waiting for Pep and are happy to keep Pellegrini until he's available as long as he is in the top 4. The switch will happen next summer I reckon Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeyt Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 From Mourinho “There will be more times when the non-title contenders win matches against the title contenders. “It’s also difficult because they have players who could play in our teams - Cabaye could play for Chelsea, Wijnaldum could play for Chelsea, Gradel could play for Chelsea. “You have a minimum of five title contenders and the other teams get stronger and stronger.” Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
