And they lost 2 points against chelsea
IF ONLY TEN HAG KNEW SQUAD ROTATION MEANT MAYBE HED STOP CRYING ABOUT ALL THE PLAYERS BEING INJURED ALL THE TIME
Farmer's league
Also creates competitiveness
Brilliant🎉
Fergie did the same.❤
Alright enough with the sh** about them having oil money or breaking 115 FFP charges,
sure theres no excuse to break A HUNDRED AND FIFTEEN but pep used his money very properly, i mean chelsea spent 1 billion and were shiet so that's enough saif
Helps when you can spend 70m on multiple sub players for every position and have a bench worth more than other top 6 starting 11s. Chequebook manager.
Man cheaty have the money and the will to break ffp rules.
It's as if u can spend 115 to have 2 first XI ! It's amazing. Why didn't any other teams think of this?
Liverpool does too, weve been immense last part of the season for years
Everyone plays except for kalvin philips
Who's winning the Premier League this season then?
It’s also because man city usually go through vigorous changes each season and it takes time to adapt for new players as well as existing players adapting to the changing landscape. I mean just look at all the world class players that have come and gone in the past 5 years. Plus man city’s playing style is so intense that after an off season it takes a little while sometimes to get fully up to speed. It’s the same case with Liverpool who also are prone to poor starts and strong finishes. Also noted by someone else, the number one reason comes down to the stability of the manager. Even Ferguson went through real rough patches in the season yet managed to finish on top several times
That's the big issue with football today.
It's not super interesting to see a team dominate when they just have a much bigger budget and more better players than their opponents (City, PSG, real, Bayern..)
Especially when city doesn't earn their money, it's just given by oil monzy
Pep manage city like i manage my team on fifa 😂
It’s not genius. It’s a luxury.
It’s about time you admit it’s a farmers league 😃
It also helps when they have all the referees on their payroll
I love the other clubs crying in the comment section😭
hoo u guys have forgotten AFCON influence, teams like liverpool loose their key stars and that will make a point or two diff and guess what mancity won by 1-2 points 2 times…
Man City can rotate because Pep literally has two starting 11s, his B-squad can win the league😂😂 115 charges will get you that
Liverpool tend to do it too
All except Kalvin Phillips
Why do so many fans miss this importance? Obviously we want to win every game but if you average 90% across a whole season (and lose or draw a couple of close games) compared to average 97% 1st half and 65% 2nd half when everyone else is burnt ou or injured, youre obviously going to do better. And how did Arteta not pick this up working for him with one of the biggest drop offs of a big team?
managers usually go one of 2 ways in preseason, go hard, get in shape and get out blocks fast, pile up points and you will run out steam in second half but just try to hang on. Another is go easy in preseason, you might get off blocks slow but you will build up strength as season goes on and usually have more energy in second half. Mourhinho was a proponent of the first and most managers have followed that blueprint.
Correction*
“But how do they do it!?”
115 ffp violations.
it helps that referees refuse to give decisions against them in key moments.
And without decades of FFP violations, they would not have orders of magnitude more quality depth than their closest competitors. I.E. they are cheaters.
That's what u get if u spend your money wisely. Unlike man united 😢😅
Not too impressive when you're owned by an oil nation state
Yet another reason why he should take a LFC esque job. Let’s see how good he really is without money
So all of us other pl clubs are screwed
