• We'd like to take this opportunity to wish you a Happy Holidays and a very Merry Christmas from all at Golf Monthly. Thank you for sharing your 2025 with us!

And, we’re off.......2018/2019

What a quality ball in and stunning first touch and finish. Just superb.
 
And we're still on a streak of not being beaten since Chelsea, Mhiktaryan gets us out of Jail. Wolves have definitely got something about them though
 
Wow, the difference in class is just palpable, I can almost taste it.
I can see City winning the Prem for the next few years, there's no team even close.
Silva should change his name to Gold, Solid Gold ..................... he's an absolute joy to watch, even for me!

Wow, shocker, 880m spent equals a dominant team. Who would have thunk it? Line up the bestest coach, and wowser, bring it on. Not jealous, don't give a stuff, but it is no mystery how it works.

You give enough of a stuff to post on the forum. I can almost smell the bitterness/envy.

It's not just the winning, it is how they are winning.

Utd have spent huge amounts, brought in a coach that was supposed to guarantee success but they are bog awful to watch. City have spent wisely and are playing wonderful football.
 
Can’t believe Utd 12 points behind City already

City have spent a lot but then UTD have spent about £700mil since Ferguson left and that doesn’t include Sanchez -Maureen has spent £450 mil of it , but for a team that cost so much it looks really poor at the back , De Gea drops his form a little and the goals flood in , the midfield seem pedestrian and don’t create and they don’t look like a team to frighten others.

2 points a game used to at least keep you in touch at the top, we have 2 points a game and if we continue like that (optimistic) well end up 24 points behind City at the end of the season

For all the chat about best league in the world, anyone can beat anyone etc, the gap from top to bottom continues to grow not get smaller. City gap Liverpool gap Chelsea Spurs Arsenal Man U gap, after a 1/3 of the season none of the top 3 have lost! arsenal have only lost to those above them, spurs have lost to 2 sides above them and Watford.

Sourpuss can't resist a bit of grandstanding can he?

Nearly as predictable as LiverpoolPhil.

Shows how desperate they both are after 25 years of being irrelevant.

Oh dear - imagine people being negative about Man Utd - must stop that at once. We must all remember how gracious Man Utd fans were when winning throughout the 90’s - I’m sure they never once took the opportunity to stick a boot in when Liverpool weren’t doing well.

Years are ticking by for Utd being irrelevant as well now

Not sure I've ever believed the best league in the world hype. Sky propaganda.

I don’t know what teams can do to stop City really - they should be winning the league year in year out at the moment , they will be able to out spend anyone and have top quality on the bench - teams will be able to beat them in one offs but over the course of the season i think they are going to be a good 10 points clear. They need a really big dip in form over a month or so for it to be tight. Or lose players like Aguero and maybe a couple of others to injury for a significant period

Your clock's still going too.

I hope you cash in whilst you have a decent team. They're great to watch.

But I don't think my ribs could take another "It's our year"

I don’t think I actually hear Liverpool fans actually say that beyond a couple of idiots on twitter etc

And I hope we do win some silverware but it’s going to be hard - a lot of quality teams both domestically and in Europe.

Well this time last year UTD were very close and it was a two horse race and players have arrived so expected UTD to be a lot closer
