Jourdan Posted April 16, 2018 Author Share Posted April 16, 2018 So there it is. A Premier League and a League Cup double for Pep. There is no argument that they have been the best side in the division this year and by some distance. But I don’t think we will really be able to appreciate the magnitude of the achievement for some time yet. If City continue to win major titles and trophies, that will be when the plaudits truly roll in for Pep. After all, Liverpool aside, all of the other top six have performed well below expectations this year and had really poor campaigns so in many ways, it has felt quite an opportunistic achievement. Surely next year we will see a stronger Spurs and United and a less muddled Arsenal and Chelsea, leading to a more competitive title race and a higher standard of competition. And if City happen to top the pile yet again, I am sure Pep won’t be short of worshippers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Day Posted April 16, 2018 Share Posted April 16, 2018 Really interested to see what Klopp does with Liverpool in the summer, it's clear they lack depth to really mount a challenge but the defence is looking a lot stronger now. In their last 12 games including CL they have conceded just the 5 goals, whilst scoring 30. New keeper wouldn't go a miss though still. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrivateDerby Posted April 16, 2018 Share Posted April 16, 2018 They've got enough quality in the U21s (or whatever they are now) and academy for the next 5-10 years apparently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could probably still do with a world class replacement for Coutinho too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sexydadbod Posted May 6, 2018 Share Posted May 6, 2018 It may seem a lot but De Ligt’s going to be a superstar. All of the top teams in Europe are after him. Liverpool spent 25 million more than that on Van Dijk yet Dutch fans rate de ligt higher than van dijk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously only a rumour, expect this will be the first of many £50m links this summer, but if they do this. Nuts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

City only had three last year, meant when one got injured they had little options. I’m not really a Mahrez fan but they definitely had reason to bring in another wide man.

I know you will defend City and Pep no matter what, but Mahrez isn't better than Sterling or Sane, why couldn't they put a youth player in as the extra man, or sign someone with potential?

Why not give young Patrick Roberts a chance? Talk of him going to Leicester for £10m, save yourself £50m. Might not make the grade, but how will he know without trying him, after all.....

Might not make the grade, but how will he know without trying him, after all..... Patrick Roberts isn’t good enough. He’s closer to Tom Lawrence’s level than he is City’s first-team. I agree in that it would be nice for them to bring youth players through, but they have to be good enough. You can’t just play anybody to try and make a point. City aspire to be at Barca or Real Madrid’s level. Those clubs have sold far better youth players such as Thiago and Morata than Patrick Roberts over the past couple of years.
