Pellegrini has the same amount of trophies in home soil that Guardiola has, ok Guardiola won a Community Shield (?) And same time frame if I'm not wrong 🤔 | ||

3 seasons before pep chronologically: win, 86 points, second 79 points, fourth 66 points 3 seasons with pep chronologically: third, 78 points, first 100 points (5 points better than previous PL record, best team of the premier league era), and then this season they are en route to another 95+ point season.. While the CL is arguably more prestigious, I strongly maintain that league performance is a more important metric when evaluating how good a team is, and he's given them a 15 point per season boost. And if you watch them play multiple league games, the improvement is self-evident. City's top level and consistency are both fantastic. But, other top teams are also very good.. | ||

Come on, Pep told Laporte to suck and he also told the ref last season to give 2 50/50 offside decisions without VAR to Pool and then rob City of another goal :p | ||

Ajax vs Spurs. I would love to know the odds on that one before the CL season started. | ||

But, other top teams are also very good.. and theres a team that has 3 CL trophies back to back and nobody thought they were that good then or now. Knockout football is weird. Which is why I guess its so much fun. | ||

Considering City scored 4 goals that were given by the ref I don't think that Sane missing was their problem, it was conceding dumb goals. Scoring 4 goals in a CL quarter final against a good team is pretty great in my opinion. | ||
