Ferguson never went up against a world class coach in the league. Mourinho came in and won the league back to back. I believe Ferguson In this current era will struggle to win more more than two league the title.
The only reason Ferguson might struggle to win More league titles easily is because of pep. I still feel he would win some but it'll be mightily shared between him and pep(a good 2-horse race)

Remember, Ferguson won 3-peat immediately Mou won the league back to back

In 1999, United bested the defending champions Arsenal in a title race that ended on the last league day. The Arsenal City defeated hasn't won a league title in donkey years.

The 1999 United team also defeated Bayern Munich in Germany at the last minute. City faced Inter Milan and Lukaku.

United had to beat Liverpool, Chelsea, and the same Arsenal with Henry to get to the FA Cup final. City faced Sheffield United in the FA cup semis as well as arsenal and Chelsea in the earlier stages.

They had it easier than the other United team. Most of their opponents were nowhere near them. Only the FA was tough for them- their game against Arsenal was tough and the final was tough too cos United had beaten them already this season.

Doesn't change the fact they won the treble. It just wasn't as tough as it was for the 1999ers.
Keep quiet with your shaleye. Man City had it easy because Man City made it look easy.

It's not about buying players, it's about how u use them

If John Stones, Ake, A kanji were in Chelsea many of u will hate them and want them gone. Gundogan would be too old, Grealish an unproductive shakushaku flop and Haaland an expensive white Lukaku that can't be involved in build up

The only players some of u will rate would be Foden, Mahrez, KDB, B. Silva. Even Rodri some will tell u they can never win a title with them or won with three at the back, they would prefer K. Philips starting instead.


Pep Guardiola is the greatest and most successful football manager alive

For most of Ferguson spell in england there was no top coach to challenge him. Mourinho came in and won back to back, had a bad 3rd year finishing 2nd and left. Ferguson then wins two more titles with no real challenge from any top coach. When a world class coach comes to England he always tops Ferguson. Ancelotti came as well and won against Ferguson in is first season.

City’s toughest games this season was the FA cup games against United and the bottlers FC. Those games were tight and could’ve gone either way.

As per your treble, keep hoping o. I won’t be surprised if you guys get to the UCL final, lead by 3 goals and then concede 4 in added time. It’s kinda in your DNA.

I’m sure deep down you’re still pissed for missing out on the league this season.

KdB has been the top of the assist in his league for several seasons

Silva just led a team to 12th position
To compare properly
Tyrone Mings led his team to 7th
Mark Guehi led his team to 10th
Tosin Adarabioyo led his team to 9th

Those are Thiago Silva contemporaries in Central defence


Thiago Silva has won the league in Milan and at PSG when KDB couldn't find his feet in Europe. Till KDB wins his UCL on the pitch never mention him in the same breath as actual UCL winners like Mason Mount,Juan Mata.

Fergie was in the league when Wenger came in and went a whole season unbeaten.

For Fergie, it’s all about improving and elevating himself to the level of new challengers. Pep won’t be that much a problem for him in the league. Didn’t Klopp snatch this same league from Pep?

It is not luck. He learnt from his past mistakes.
I said 'his fair share of luck". There were times he made the right decision but ended up with a negative outcome. Take for example, the second leg vs Madrid in 2022, he took off a KdB that was ghosting, replaced his tiring wide attackers with fresh legs in Grealish and Sterling, and brought on Fernandinho to close out the game in the last quarter. He got his tactics spot on, IMO. But everything went south just 2 minutes to the end of the game. There was no reasonable explanation for what Real did. It just happened. So you see, you still need a bit of luck.

Mancini of Man City won the league on goal difference. Fergie delayed his retirement to win it back and prove he’s still got it.

Had Pep rivaled him during those years, the result won’t be any different.

SAF is still a GOAT.

8 years and how many league titles have klopp won? That's exactly what would have happened to Ferguson if he had a world class coach going head to head with him. Most of Ferguson time in england he was the only top coach dominating the league and when another top coach comes in Ferguson usually doesn't stand a chance. Mourinho came in won back to back. Ancelotti came in and won in his first season breaking multiple records.

Wenger is not world class. The only world class coaches that went head to head with Ferguson was Mourinho and Ancelotti meaning for most of his league career Ferguson was the only top coach In England. Mourinho and Ancelotti had no problem dealing with Ferguson united. The only thing going for Ferguson is his longevity in England. Great manager but nothing special.

Ferguson always improve with new challenges or competition. Moreover, he always have the backings of the board.

Ferguson would never go at least 3yrs without lifting that EPL trophy in England. Pep or no Pep.

Let us don't also forget that EPL was still branded the toughest league in the world even as far back as 2006.

This is wash and everyone knows that.
Una game no even tough reach Inter own but you just have to smuggle Man u final inside to make you feel good.
Heck, Una final no even tough sef against Man city. How many clean cut chances or openings did you trouble Man city?
For you to castigate only de Gea and not any attackers for missing chances sums up that you just wanted a smash and grab win without playing anything grin

How exactly is it rocket science that Barcelona fans will definitely have some kind of emotion for Man city due to having their previous coach who did a lot for Barca and play a similar style to prime Barca. How exactly is that concept hard?

Since about a couple of seasons ago, Pep has learned not to go gung ho all the time, especially in the second half of the season.

His team just scores the first goal, take their foot a little bit off the pedal, and then control the game, looking for clear cut chances to score the second and third goals.

This season is his worst league points tally for the last 3 years at least. If he continues like this, he might win the quadruple. At least, that's the way to do it. The rest depends on the relative quality of his opponents.
I noticed it in 2021/2022 season. But this time around, he was very serious about winning. I mean, this attacking useless Grealish would normally be bench in a pep's team. He is sacrificing attack for defensive solidity. He has never done that before. He took it serious to win this time and he did. I mean, he now has a striker that is not very good with ball playing. Mancity defender can now play the ball to throw in instead of trying to pass out. Stones no longer need to show that he is good with the ball at his feet. Nigga just has to do defending.

He just stays longer than his competition because United wont sack him when he fails to deliver . Mourinho came in and won the league back to back and in any other clubs Ferguson would have been fired for allowing that to happen. You are making my point for me that his longevity is the only thing going for him. His competition never stays for long and once again he becomes the only top coach in the league.

There's a reason I rate Fergie so highly, he built one title-winning team after another. It is easy to get to the top to staying there is another thing entirely because rival teams will raise their game to unseat you.

I rate Zidane because winning the UCL 3 times in a row is unheard of.

Next season, I expect the likes of Liverpool, Chelsea, Utd, and Newcastle to give City a stronger challenge.
Champions league is just a 13 matches competition that gives you a second leg option, even if you lose the first. Zidane should come and take another team to prove his prowess.

Ancelotti won the league and SAF reclaimed top spot a season later. How did he 'deal' with SAF?

Mourinho gave him a tougher time by winning two in a row. He left in his 3rd season and he was not topping the table when he left.

SAF always reinvents himself and then topples the opposition. There's no way he won't do the same thing with Pep. He did it with Ancelotti and Mourinho.

That's the point I've been making but you seem oblivious to that.

that man u display in a final is the worst that I have seen from a top team that is not having old players. I mean, man utd were losing, yet they were strolling on the pitch. Man city players could just stand with the ball and no utd player was pressing to get the ball back. And man city didn't even play that well.

Gerald houlier,Kenny Daglish,Arsene Wenger weren't top coaches?

How many league titles did Ancelotti win in Italy?

Just so you know Ferguson already defeated Ancelotti when the latter was Juventus coach in 19999.

Abeg Ferguson is not your ordinary coach,i can taunt him to troll man united fans but deep down that man was a genius.
