Can't knock the City fans for enjoying it so don't take it personal, but the football community and the view of the actual football elite clubs kinda of look at your success and null and void it really. If United or Liverpool would have done that domestic treble (your not having the community shield as a valid trophy) then it would have been a media circus, pull outs in the press etc...Maybe a tv special. I bet you'd find people across Europe didn't even know you did it given the lack on interest, I don't even remember the press making a big deal of it. Quote

It is lies, we are the talk of the footballing world right now for good or bad reasons, everybody knows who Manchester City is and how good we are and united only made 40million more than us in revenue last year, we are catching you up in every regard, as a fellow Manc you should be happy the City's only professional club is doing so well instead of being a traitor and supporting a team from a neighboring borough Quote
Cicero Posted February 23, 2021 Posted February 23, 2021 (edited) Still funny the only thing separating City from being demoted to the Championship and barred from European competitions is the statute of limitations. Edited February 23, 2021 by Cicero Quote

The second part of your post I just ignore as it's the kind of childish stuff a 12 year old City fan had to use in school during the period you were crap and that was the only ammo they had to fire off in the class room.

They may as well buy football mate, pathetic that video. Honestly once they do with the Champions league (which they will) how will the rest of Europe feel when they sustain success and make the Champions league a none event as well. Most clubs require a new defender in the summer, City just buy whole new defence and replace the current ones they've got. They hide behind the fact they don't spend world record transfer fee's yet they know they have the ability to completely change the majority of their starting eleven in one transfer window. It's not a level playing field and it will never be a level playing field if it's allowed to continue. FFP was brought in to stop this nonsense and force the likes of City and PSG to only spend what they earn, level the playing field but City and PSG both found loop holes in the system. United, Liverpool, Bayern and so on have to spend what they earn otherwise they go out of business, City have a bottomless pit. Edited February 23, 2021 by Devil Quote

Can't fault them for enjoying the ride but I bet deep down some City fans miss their club actually feeling respected and liked by other clubs fans.

I don't personally know a City fan that's changed teams so you talking rubbish, most loyal supporters on the planet, look how many numbers we got in the lower divisions and still hold the attendance record to this day outside of wembley Quote

Second highlight - What do you base that on if you don't mind me asking? attendance in the lower divisions? I suggest you read up United's history for one mate, when we were relegated we would turn a whole away stadium into a home ground but I couldn't make a bold claim like we are the most loyal supporters in the world because how on earth can you gauge that fact. Surely a die hard fans of some of these lower league clubs must be deemed more loyal due to the fact they could support a top flight club but choose to throw their support behind a team never likely to be shown on tv other than a miracle cup run. Third highlight - Interesting fact that is, I actually didn't know that fair play to City. Quote

Happy Blue Posted February 23, 2021 Posted February 23, 2021 It's official Man City title-winning centurion's team named greatest Premier League side of all-time Well, GQ has stated how they really feel, in a list of the top 28 Premier League sides of all time. Who comes in at number one, you ask? None other than Pep Guardiola’s Centurion Blues. 2017/18 was a remarkable season for Manchester City. The Premier League team of the year ended with five City players: Nicolas Otamendi, Kyle Walker, Kevin De Bruyne, David Silva, and Sergio Aguero. But not only was the brand of football perhaps the most entertaining English football has ever seen, the sheer dominance of the Etihad side in Pep Guardiola’s second season in charge was quantified by records set one after another. The Centurion’s laundry list of records set at the time looked something like this: First team to reach 100 points Most consecutive wins (18) Best goal difference (+79) Biggest points margin (19) Most wins (32) Most goals (106) Whether or not you personally believe the 2017/18 iteration of Guardiola’s City is the true ‘GOAT’, you can't argue with the statistics. And those statistics make it simple, The Centurion Blues were truly the best. It is worth mentioning that two other City teams featured in the top ten. The 2018/19 City side came in at #4, and Roberto Mancini's 2011/2012 title winning team landed in the #10 spot. Quote

Devil Posted February 23, 2021 Posted February 23, 2021 2008 United walks through that City team. Rio and Vidic two of the best Cb's of all time. Tevez, Ronaldo, Rooney.... Giggs, Scholes and Carrick Van Der Saar That team even walks through the 1999 team in my opinion. None of your City teams could compete, a prime top draw Chelsea couldn't for three years straight.
