Four out of the last five. Six* out of the last ten. So this is how it feels to be Bayern Munich in the Bundesliga? To be fair, Liverpool is a much better rival than Borussia Dortmund. Without Liverpool's competitive challenge, I doubt City would have reached as many 90+ season point totals.
With Erling's goal scoring next season, we can build on our domestic dynasty and finally secure the Champions League trophy that City's owners and all but the most deluded fans crave.
*One more PL trophy than Chelsea. 5/22/2022 7:49:19 PM

Quote : | "Former Oasis rock star Noel Gallagher received stitches in his face after being accidentally headbutted by Ruben Dias' father as the pair celebrated Manchester City's thrilling comeback to clinch the Premier League title on Sunday.
The musician and City fan said he was "covered in blood" moments after Pep Guardiola's side fought back from 2-0 down against Aston Villa to win 3-2 at the Etihad in a dramatic final game of the season." |

Sounds like the work of TWW. Anyone remember the News14 school closing free-for-all?
Quote : | "The BBC has apologised after a message appeared on screen reading “Manchester United are rubbish”.
The line popped up on the BBC News ticker at the bottom of the screen during a tennis update on the 9am to 10am broadcast. Later in the morning, the presenter Annita McVeigh apologised to any Manchester United fans who may have been offended, saying the mistake had occurred as someone was learning how to operate the ticker and was “writing random things not in earnest”.

Fascinating, but they don't mention that Ancelotti paid Liverpool back in the 2007 final.

I hear that neither Haaland nor Nunez likes to press. here's hoping Haaland has a hissy-fit meltdown in response to Pep's demands for a high workrate, and ends up getting benched for half the season.
it could happen. Pep is capable of some idiotic decisions, like playing de Bruyne up top in the 2021 champions league final with Gundogan as the CDM. and big City transfers have been known to underperform - the club doesn't seem to mind wasting $100 million since they're sitting on a huge mountain of oil money. so it could happen. whereas I generally trust Klopp to spend money intelligently.
I'd rather have Haaland, but I hold out hope that his potential will go up in flames whereas Nunez will once again vindicate Klopp's transfer judgment. 6/28/2022 11:08:29 PM

Chelsea are close to signing Raphinha from Leeds, transfer fee has been agreed and close on personal terms.
Said to be close on getting Raheem Sterling from City.
Their primary CB target is Matthijs de Ligt from Juventus, they are said to be keen on Pulisic (with McKennie there thats not a surprise) but Chelsea prefer sending them Werner since he wages are higher. 6/29/2022 7:50:26 AM
