But they won some Mickey Mouse cup.
Tommy Tuchel seriously mugged off B Rod.

Tielemanns looked fair rotted there.

Incredible season round up there, outstanding management from Pep to bring this side to another title given how the season started.

That’s why they’re champions.

Emotional scenes at the Etihad :cry:

Harry Kane will end up in Chelsea won’t he?

They hardly need another striker

Chelsea or one of the two Manchesters. Only one of the elite trio of super franchises with unlimited financial backing will be able to meet the asking price.

They are probably the only crowd that can afford him anyway.

Rodgers is a cod of a manager.

Harry Kane.

Top scorer and top assister.

:clap:

The Golden Boot and the Golden Assist.

What a player.

They’re notoriously racist in the Black Country. Enoch Powell country.

I don’t have a Ferguson book on my shelf.

Since Moysie guided Everton to a 4th place finish in 2004/05, 63 of the 64 Top 4 slots over the subsequent 16 seasons have been filled by the so called ‘Super 6’. Leicester in 2015/16 the one outlier. This season is the first since 2008/09 that the same 4 have finished in the top 4 in consecutive seasons. From 2003/04 to 2008/09, there were 6 consecutive seasons of Man U, Woolwich, Chelsea and Liverpool all qualifying for the European Cup for the following season.

It’s most likely reverting to that level of a closed shop in the Top 4 for the foreseeable future. Woolwich haven’t made the Top 4 in any of the last 5 seasons, 2 seasons now for Spurs and with the sale this summer of Harry Kane to one of the elite trio of super franchises, Spurs unlikely to be in Top 4 for a good few years now.

It would have been nice for a bit of competitiveness and variety to have seen West Ham and Leicester make it, but those type of sides with their lack of squad depth and without the financial muscle of the super franchises invariably tend to falter down the home stretch.

The top 6 is dynamic.

Were Man City in the top 6 in 04-05?

Citeh joined the ranks of the elite coterie of super franchises with the investment of autocratic state oil money from Abu Dhabi.
