tempered by the fact that they were playing"catch up" with regard to games played in the premiership for the bulk of the season.Royal Ginger wrote:Stat I saw on TV. City spent only 14 days at the top of the table this season, which is the least any winning side has ever had.
Short memory and conclusive proof again, that Ian knows nothing about football.Ian Royal wrote:Fair play, they've had the attack and played good football (unlike Chelsea)
tbf i had Chelsea down as winners this year and i reckon you would have done it if you had a Suarez/Aguero type player up front for you. If you do get Costa for next season then i can see you winning the league next seasonNo Fixed Abode wrote:Short memory and conclusive proof again, that Ian knows nothing about football.Ian Royal wrote:Fair play, they've had the attack and played good football (unlike Chelsea)![]()
Start of the season we were playing open attacking football, which led to us conceding too many goals, latter part of the season we shut up shop but still managed to trounce Arsenal 6-0 and Spurs 4-0 by playing boring football eh Ian?! Our squad is good, but the balance wasn't quite right this season and as G Nev said "Chelsea are the only team to have thrown away the league title this year".
Boring boring Chelsea...

That's not quite accurate is it. They only have to pay £16m of the fine now. Doesn't mean they won't have to pay the rest if they don't behave themselves.Jackson Corner wrote:Just to clear up the UEFA punishment. They now only have to pay 16 million of there original 50 million fine, And the squad is capped to 21 players the same amount they used in reaching the last 16 last season.
What sort of wind up is it you are going for here?Nameless wrote:Hard to see why City have been punished at all. Unfair shouldn't be interfering in clubs who operate within their financial capability. They should be looking at clubs who spend more than they can afford. City have no debt - what is the problem ?
