Originally posted by KieranU2:Man City have a team where - even though they have some great players & have Mancini has a manager - they will simply not work together well. Personally, I want to see them win the league, but they probably won't win it because of the games they have remaining.
As for Gareth Barry getting subbed and complaining, he can't say anything. He's shit.
Chelsea showed how to take money and turn it into trophies. Four years on from the takeover and they've won The FA Cup. In the first four years of Chelsea's takeover, they won two Premier League titles, two League Cup's, one FA Cup, a Community Shield and reached the Champions League final.
Chelsea showed that despite spending money on a host of new players, it was still possible to form a strong team that could go on to win things. Man City aren't really a team, they're a collection of players who are being payed absurd amounts of money. There isn't any real strength to the squad in terms of teamwork.
Chelsea were a truly strong team, probably one of the great teams in Premier League history. Man City aren't anywhere near the standard of those great sides. Compare them to the United side that won the treble in 1999, or the Arsenal side that went 49 games unbeaten, the chelsea side that completed back to back Premier League titles between 04-06 and the Man Utd squad that hit a hat-trick of Premier League titles between 2006-2009. Man City just seem so far away from that. I'd say they're only where they are now on the basis of their first half performance and home record.
We were three and they were four... I ran around like mad and scored something like ten goals. We won 12-6 or something like that. I got very tired covering up for our lack of manpower though. But it was a helluva lot of fun. People in the other team got a bit mad at me though
