  • What do you disagree with? That Xavi and Iniesta are 2 of the greatest midfielders ever? That's simply an incorrect opinion, if so. Or do you disagree that DeBruyne is not on their level? I mean, that's more debatable, but I don't think that's a...
  • Not mostly because of Messi. Xavi and Iniesta are also far ahead of any City player and that was the heart of the team. Xavi and Iniesta are both in the conversation for the greatest midfielder ever, there is no City equivalent, not even...
  • But they don't win that much. I mean, they do in the Premier League obviously, but when it comes to the Champions League and the big international tournaments (where you sort the wheat from the chaff IMO), what do they do? I think the City group...
  • The greatest player to ever wear United's colours is a different question from the greatest player in the club's history. For example, prior to Messi, Maradona was the greatest player to ever play in a Barcelona team, but he was not Barca's...
  • George Best?
  • Messi v Real Zaragoza in 2010. Not a big game but I actually think it might be the best performance that I've ever seen by any player in any game ever. It seemed like every time he got the ball, he could do literally anything he wanted. Insanity.
  • All that will be remembered probably is City winning the league. The cups used to matter a great deal, but they don't now, in this modern era of money and closer international relations in football. In this world, there are 2 trophies that...
  • And yet the team that lifted silverware wants to sack their manager and the team that didn't, doesn't. There's a sign there for those who would like to simplify things a bit too much.
  • I agree. But every manager has something in their resume that you can criticise, no one ticks every box. That's my point. I think with Pep, there is a lot of focus in this thread on what he hasn't done and not enough understanding re the...
  • Every single person who is against Pep says this, over and over again, but there are circumstances that led to him not starting at the bottom which are nothing to do with him (good players get big jobs faster, especially at clubs where they are...
  • Matt Busby made Manchester United, not Fergie. Fergie brought United back to the summit but Busby put them there first.
  • Why confine it to Europe or just the last 30/40 years also? I know European football is much stronger than South American domestic football now, but that wasn't always the case. Do we think Brazilians and Argentines uniformly think that SAF is...

    I'm not a Manchester United fan so whoever they choose as manager has no bearing on my happiness whatsoever. Why the arbitrary choice of 2016? And you do realise that Scolari and Lippi are well into their 70s and would have been almost 70 in...

    Ooh, I can play this game too! Ancelotti? 30 years in the game and only 5 titles?!?! Never went back to back in any league? Only one title in each league apart from with Madrid, who've won a gazillion titles? Went to Everton and flopped...

    Lippi overrated :lol::lol: The other people you mentioned are pretty good managers as well, not sure what you're going on about here.....
