And Sterling. Comes across as great kid.

His stand against racism has to be welcomed and has gained him a lot of fans this year across the board.

They’re worthy Champions. Dropping out of the CL was a blessing for them

Ya funny enough I agree. I think they would have dropped points Monday had they knocked out Spurs. They would have played that earlier. They looked sluggish

There's a difference between bottling and just not being good enough. This season Liverpool just weren't good enough to get over the line. Albeit worthy winners.

Liverpool have made huge progress the last few years and are still going in the right direction, but losing the league this year was a complete bottle job

The key game was the game at the etihad.

Mane somehow no goal & Kompany no red card the key decision.

Sane similar shot to Mane takes a deflection & goes in. In fairness City closed out the season with 14 in a row brillantly.

That said they would prefer a CL. While we are going for our 6th title. The biggest club competition in the world.

Fantastic pro, has had a number of massive goals over the years, obviously Monday being one of the biggest.

Injuries have hampered him and he's not the player he once was but definitely the type of player you'd love at your club

Great player, a premier league legend, there before the money came in too. Anything I've ever seen about him is he's a top bloke.

Not a dig at United but when you see them giving Jones, Smalling and young new deals and city are letting kompany go it really sums up the situations of both clubs.

It's pointless pin pointing moments in the season. City have been flawless since January.
We did incredible it wasn't good enough, we go again next season.

Doubt it. Gerrard said he would have swapped his CL medal for a PL one.

"It's great to have that level of respect, but the most satisfying thing is always winning trophies. If we win the title, it will rank alongside Istanbul as one of the greatest achievements in our history. None of us will ever give up trying and we still believe we can do it.

"I've said I'd swap every other medal I could win for the rest of my career to win the league, and I mean that."

Kompany was one of the first signings after City were bought out.

Clutching at them now.

Mahrez could've scored that pen and City sauntered off into the distance.

His contract is up at the end of the season. Deserves an extension tbh.

Vinnie is a top fella. In his prime, one of the best CBs in the PL. Even now, he isn't too bad. And a very intelligent bloke, who speaks very well. He totally understands how the fans feel about our club. He also married a local girl, who's a lifelong City fan, from a family of blues. I hope he stays on at the club.

Nope kompany was signed a few weeks before the take over. I doubt the incoming regime had any influence on that.

Mr.Nice Guy

Delighted for Bernardo Silva. What a player.

Do I not remember watching that Amazon documentary on City and Kompany was winding up his father in law as her Dad was a United fan?

What do you reckon Blueser about players in the older bracket; do you think there's much more seasons in Aguero, Fernandihno, Kompany and Silva? Tbh I'm looking forward to seeing the back of them. :P

Bought on August 22nd 2008.Sheikh Mansour purchased the club on Sept 1st.

Salford FC all the way baby....... Might try and squeeze in a United game when I’m at one of their games! One thing for me is that it’s usually cheaper and easier to get tickets to united games. Every cloud and all that,

Will I Am Not

Well thank f*ck that’s over. Man City save football fans all across the globe once again. Fair play to them.
My Liverpool mates in the WhatsApp (great app btw) are reflecting on not beating that 10 man, patched up United team. So there’s some solace there for me after the stick I’ve had to endure this season. Anyway... congrats to City fans and thanks from the rest of us. It’s back to lurking for me, see yis in the feedback thread

I think we'll start seeing less of them from next season. David has been a long way off his best form this past couple of months. Bernardo is the obvious successor to him, with Phil as the deputy. The rest of them are still excellent players, but time waits for no one. I'd imagine that Stones and Laporte will be Pep's favoured first choice cb pairing next season. And it's no secret that we'd like to sign a decent defensive midfielder and have been trying for the last year or so. As for Kun; where is there a similar quality out and out striker that could be prised away from their current club? Jesus definitely has potential, but he's a long way off Kun. He could do with learning the offsideaw for a start! I'm dreading Kun going.

Stepfather, I think (might be wrong on that though). You are correct though.

StringerBell

Tbf, the amount of injuries united had going in to that game and then picked up so early in that game really hampered pool. Not very fair when you think about it.

There nearly as rich as City these days so it shouldn't be long before they run up the leagues and they reach the PL so that will make interesting times for the fair weather supporters.


One billionaire owner & David Beckham and who isn't far off a billionaire himself with five multi millionaire owners.

Who out spend everyone and are happy to lose money they will fit in well in the league.

Jesus they are still talking about United. Even mentioning Salford despite the fact they live in Ireland.

Congrates to the resident city fans here. was a brilliant season. Well deserved. We had a fantastic season but ye had an even better one.

Im happy enough with our progress. at the start of the season i would have been happy with a champions league final and a chance at the league on the last day.

But again congratulations man city. I bet all of Manchester is feeling blue right now.

The_Kew_Tour

Not seen the goals but hopefully Travers was not at fault for those goals today for Bournemouth. Played so well last week

It really is like picking a national league team in football manager and hitting the cash cheat code!
