Man City winning the league four times in a row is a serious achievement to be fair, it’s up there with Lance Armstrong winning seven tours on the bounce.
Regardless, how Pep manages to continually motivate millionaires to play like they do week in, week out is truly unbelievable. It's a shame that the achievements will always be tainted by financial doping.juliussneezer said:

Quote of the week!TalkSport
This Morning
Have avoided a lot of farewell fanfare around Klopp's departure but I did catch an brief interview with Margaret Aspinall this morning about her thoughts. I think she captures it perfectly and actually if the next manager "gets" Liverpool in the same way Klopp did and embeds himself with the people and the city, he'll be loved and adored just as much (as long as he wins aswell!)

Matip and Thiago confirmed to be leaving Liverpool at end of the season.
Sad day, losing two top quality players, despite it being the right decision and despite their injury record. Some great memories.
Adrian too.Sad day, losing two top quality players, despite it being the right decision and despite their injury record. Some great memories.
Right decision for all concerned.
Matip has been fantastic servant to the club.

£300k a week off the wage bill for 2 players in Adrian and Thiago that have only managed 5 minutes of football combined this season has to be a very good thing though.
On another topic, will be interesting to see if the new boss thinks this young man is ready for a permanent step up next season. With Jota's ongoing injury issues we could do with an alternative CF option, and he certainly has something about him.

Danns strikes me as everything that Nunez isn't - instinctive. If he keeps progressing he could be leading the line in a couple of yearsCountyAFC said:

Adrian seems to have been a selfless 3rd choice behind the scenes. Be interesting if Alisson and Kelleher say what his contribution has been, at some point. But he should always at least be remembered for his performance in the Super Cup final when he saved the penalty that won us the trophy.

(yes I know that wouldn't happen).For giggles I'd like to see him manage someone like Bournemouth, just to see how good he is with a smaller wallet.
Manchester city rent a stadium for around 6 million a year, rather than having to build one themselves.
They are owned by a nation state.
They may have broken an inordinate number of rules to gain advantage.
It all adds up to such an advantage that to me they are an irrelevance and i just couldn't give a toss about their achievments .
It just feels false.
So i really don't care as much as if it were man utd.

Clearly a club playing on cheat mode.
