man city makes football the most boring sport in the world

Man City can now almost field 2 world-class elevens. I will include Cancelo to make up the numbers but imagine these 2 lineups, Ederson, Ake, Diaz, Stones, Walker, Kova, Gundo, Foden, Grealish, Haaland, and Silva vs Ortega, Cancelo, Gvardiol, Akanji, Lewis, Rodri, KDB, McAtee, Doku, Furuhashi and Savinho. Pep could field one team in the PL and one in the UCL. This will be the season where players will be rested and rotated. A lot of the problems of last season have been addressed. We have injury-proofed the team to a huge degree this season and fatigue will not be such a huge issue.
I'm pretty sure Cancelo is going Barca actually
@@cutierosa2404 I understand that he is on his way out. I only used him to illustrate that with the current players we have now we could field 2 different teams.
It's actually mental. Considering the fatigue other clubs will face at the end of the season, we really should be dominating pretty much everyone then. If we are still in the UCL then, maybe we can go on and win our second. The only club that I can accept defeat to in this case would be Real Madrid.
@@alfvervaeke When you consider just how unfortunate our timing was last season running into RM in the quarters of the UCL, we just got KDB back and he was not match fit yet. We also didn't have Gundo. This is the strongest squad we have ever had. Hopefully we can go on and win multiple trophies this season.
I have begun a using a new editting software to fix bitrate issues! I hope it makes the video quality better!
La Masia is the only academy not failing and consistently producing talent. It’s always been that way. In Spain’s recent Olympics win and their recent euros run, there was an abundance of La Masian talent.
La Masia is the only academy not failing... YET. I agree that La Masia is the best academy in the world, but it isn't what it used to be. It is in decline, and that is for a different reason than most other academies. Barca's financial situation is strangling La Masia right now. Ontop of that, they keep selling players they would rather keep for another 2 or 3 years cause they need funds. The building is still standing, but there's cracks in the walls. And that's the BEST in the world. That tells you a grim story.
@alfvervaeke it isn't. Gavi, Fermin, Balde, Casado, Fati, Yamal, Bernal, Cubarsi, andPau Victor prove otherwise. It's flourishing!!!
@@33jangofett That's a list compiled by someone who started watching football in 2012. Gavi is very mediocre, so is Balde. Fati might've been excelent if not for the early injuries. I've not seen enough of Bernal nor Victor to be convinced. Cubarsi has potential, but that's all it is. Potential. Now live up to it. Yamal I completely agree with. So at the moment we've got 1 player + 1 maybe + 1 could have been save for injuries. Not at all what it used to be.
The reason for the players being mediocre is injuries fr. Balde was class in the 2022/23 season when we won laliga but then got injured same with gavi. We know the situation about fati. Fermin has been class this past season so has been cubarsi and yamal. U should blame the coach, or the medical staff instead of the players
La masia is not failing. Barca is relying on child labor to stay afloat
Well, in the video I said La Masia is one of the few academies that is still doing well. But that even there, the talent is starting to become more rare.
VARdrid isn't an invincible or treble winner 😂😂
Real Madrid went invincible in 1932.
Imagine being invincible and winning a treble. Thats the REAL best team performance
Exactly! I wanna see that happen! How about Leicester this season?
Threepeat is better then both combined
Notice how one takes place across 3 seasons and the other takes place in a single season.
@@alfvervaeke notice it takes a lot more to maintain that level across three seasons as compared to one season
@@pratyushdam1 That's neither here nor there. The video is about singular season accomplishments. Whether the 3peat is better or not is subject for discussion, sure. It's not the subject of the video though.
@@alfvervaeke your video your topic i guess. i was just stating that threepeat is greater achievement than any invincible or treble season, and thats just my opinion.
That good❤❤
Pedri is not from Barca's academy
I think your definition and standard for what an “invincible” should be is a bit too high. The implication is that they were invincible in that particular competition not in the entire season. Regardless, going a full league season against teams that are meant to be your peers, especially in the top 5 leagues where the any team in the league has the capability of at least surprising you, is certainly an achievement that deserves to be praised. If it was so easy, there wouldn’t be only a handful of teams that have ever done it.
The definition of Invincible: "too powerful to be defeated or overcome" You don't deserve that title without winning every competition you were in without suffering a single defeat. Categorically, you are not invincible if there is a single competition you didn't win. Because you were overcome. In the same sense, you were not invincible if you suffered a single defeat across all competitions, even if you won all of them. Because then you were defeated. The title of Invincibles is handed out too easily. To be invincible is to be the greatest - and yet not a single one of the 'invincible' teams out there strike me as being on the level 2008 Man U., 2009 Barca, 3peat Madrid or 2023 Man City. As for the idea that going unbeaten for a full league season is impressive. Sure, it makes your 90 points get an asterisk. And yet Perugia didn't win the title for going invincible, did they now?
time to cry ig
I'm joining you 😭
great content keep it up bro! ❤
It's only United fans complaining about the Alvarez deal. The same United that spent 73mil on Atalanta's 4th choice striker, the same United that spent 21mil(could rise to 30mil with addons) on Amad who only made his senior debut for Atalanta after the deal was agreed and spent another 60mil for Yoro who had 12 months left on his contract
Agree, clubs will rather buy instead of promoting. I'm also happy that Bayerns deals for Xavi Simons and Doue broke because that gives a player from their academy like Vidovic a chance. They already got rid of top talents like Yildiz(now at Juventus) and Zirkzee(now at Man United). Losing Vidovic will be worse since he has high potential to become a world-class player and can play anywhere in attack Also. side note. Pedri was bought from Las Palmas. He is not from La Masia. He went straight into the team at a young age.
You're completely correct on the Pedri one! Although I don't think that players like Vidovic are exactly talented, the fact that Bayern Munchen isn't constantly producing talented players in the first places shows how underfunded their academies really are.
brrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
Utter nonsense
You are not serious 😂😂 Liverpool to finish 6th position
Respect Klopp.
It's because kids don't play on the street anymore. All the great players of the past learnt their trade playing random games with the kids in the neighbour on makeshift pitches with coats for goals
You raise a very good point! This video was focused on the academies itself, but you are absolutely correct! I personally think the fundemental problem is playing in organized academies but not outside of it. There is something that an academy can never teach you: personality. And that is one of the biggest things missing in the modern day.
What are you on about…..sky confirmed atletico has signed him. Very poor video
Maybe learn how to read the article that was on my screen FROM SKY when I was recording this.
ppl rly struggle to comprehend time, lol. sky confirmed alvarez 2 hours after this video went up. just read the article. imagine being such a dipshit u go on a small youtubers channel and insult his videos when ur wrong.
😂
these articles read like a fanfiction. love the banter
Rather win the treble
If a team was invincible in all competitions they could do both
Pay 40m for a homegrown box tick and that’s gonna happen on occasion. No one thought this guy was gonna start games. Win some lose some. Can never blame a player for honoring a contract he was given by the club. It’s the clubs job to do their homework before spending that much on a player not certain of.
That's just whataboutism though. The club is certainly at blame. But that doesn't change the fact that Kalvin Philips got a contract, came in and then started coming to training overweight. Never seems to try at training and has 0 mentality. In fact, I think the club have been absolutely terrible in the transfer window in recent years. That doesn't mean it's okay for players to act like this.
Great video.
Thank you!
I've got a photo of me with ECWC from 1985
True, for Bruges getting to the KO´s is enough...
Clubs like ajax are being forgotten despite their immense history
Isn't cup winners cup like todays conference league?
The Cup Winners Cup used to be second to the European Cup. The UEFA Cup (now Europa League) used to be the third tier. But that changed when the Champions League format was introduced. The Cup Winners would usually finish in the top half. Suddenly, a lot of cup winners were playing Champions League instead. That led to teams as low as the Quarter Finals qualifying for the Cup Winners Cup (when previously, it was always the winner. Or the runner up in case of a double winner). This made the Cup Winners Cup lose all its prestige, so it was merged with the UEFA Cup. Not removed, but merged. Which is why if you win your domestic cup, you qualify for the Europa League unless you finish top 4.
absolutely ridiculous
solid idea mate, I think lessen the blow by making it top 3 go to UCL maximum though, but still bring back cup winners cup
That might work to lessen the blow on the lower competitions, but that would still bloat the UCL with "Top 5 league" teams. And besides, I think if you're going to call a competition the "Champions" League, that only champions should be playing in it.
African football is starting to catch up with their European and South American counterparts therefore i think we will see an African nation winning the world cup within the next 20 years.
hey see this and add it to your analysis This century Livcerpool fans have bought less tickets than City, and City had more sellouts than Liverpool MCFC 17,256, 723, 65 sellouts. lfc 17,158,439 50 sellouts. www.transfermarkt.co.uk/fc-liverpool/besucherzahlenentwicklung/verein/31 www.transfermarkt.co.uk/manchester-city/besucherzahlenentwicklung/verein/281 when you consider most of these sellouts by city fans were before when we were bought out, and how little success we had compared to Liverpool, the city fans should be applauded. they are a couple of years old and so could be updated
Sorry for the late response! That's actually really interesting! Although, Man City's sell outs have probably dropped because we built the City of Manchester stadium (now the Etihad). A bigger stadium is more difficult to fill. Which is why Liverpool struggles to sell out Anfield. I think the more interesting one of the two is the average attendances! It's undeniable that Liverpool has lost a large portion of its following during the 90s and 2000s. And Liverpool's current following is direcetly tied to their recent success. I think if that falls away for 5 years, and City keep winning trophies, we definitely overtake them entirely!
IS HE ANY RELATION TO FERNANDO?
Maybe 😳
I’m surprised they lost to Celtic but I believe they will win against Milan
I'm not really surprised when I saw the line up. 6/11 players had never played first team football for Man City. Of the 5 other ones, 1 is coming off of an injury season, two others are still trying to break through and one is the goalkeeper. The important thing in these friendlies isn't winning. It's seeing who's good and who isn't. I.e., filtering out the trash.
@@alfvervaeke oh yea that makes sense I didn’t see the lineups or the game, only the final score. Yea That’s basically what friendlies do
Not an arse of that sçhyte❕ *NO*
Good video
Thank you very much!
Bruno is overrated whereas Oscar is class
Bobb isn't getting into this current Man City team unless we drop Bernardo. Meanwhile, we are down on our knees for a Rodri cover. Without one, Rodri's career is done by 30. And if he gets injured mid season, our season is over. Rodri was considered trash when he first came to City. Let's be honest and admit that we haven't been watching every game Bruno has played. Whilst our scouts most certainly have. A new 6 is a necessity. Another midfield-winger who can be replaced by one of a dozen copy pastas in our academy whilst having 3 other wingers already does not phase me to the same degree.
@@alfvervaeke let's get olmo or kimmich
@@paulbrickland9625 Olmo isn't a defensive midfielder, and Kimmich is getting up there in age. I'd love Kimmich, but we'd have to go out and buy again in only 3 or 4 years after that.
This is a joke right Oscar should be playing for city not going to Newcastle
I'd certainly hope that Bobb stays or gets loaned and not sold as you said. Bernardo certainly did not sit the world on fire last year so it may be time for Bobb to step up next year
At least Bobb would be a lone not buy I hope. Bruno didn't impress me in COPA and he didn't put in a transfer request as you said.
Let's hope Maximo Perrone is the guy that everyone on twitter thinks he is, then. 🙏
He is, @@alfvervaeke. Even that does not affect your affairs. Cancelo is available for purchase.
😂😂😂😂🍀🍀
No don't want bobb to go
🤣🤣 it wont happen we keeping rico and bobb
Not that I'd disagree per se. But I'm not sure why there's such a confidence in that. Bruno is more important than Bobb for us. We need a DM right now, and Bobb needs minutes. Minutes he won't get at City.
Bobb is not a DM and is on a career trajectory at MCFC, @@alfvervaeke.
@@alfvervaeke but is Bruno good enough he's about the same age as kimmich and kimmich as played under pep
@@paulbrickland9625 Kimmich is 3 years older than Bruno. Kimmich is hitting his thirties, Bruno isn't. The system Pep played with Bayern is very different from what he plays now. There's reasons to want both, but Bruno is lower wages, younger and used to Premier League football. He knows the teams he'll be playing against. We NEED a DM, who we'll get unknown. Could be Perrone getting into our starting XI for all we know. But Rodri absolutely cannot be playing 30+ premier league games again this season.
rory the ultimate bullshitter
Celts wil always b bigger in man city.
Sure bud
Disrespectful little knob poor show😡
KDB is staying
Yes he is! I've already made an update video about this news! Saudi Arabian sources claim it's not true and Pep said it's not happening.
@@alfvervaekeThank God. Im all for talented players being across the world but Europe should always have the best as long as their the best stil
@@welpbuddy4417 For me, it realy doesn't matter where the best players are. It's all about the money and not the fans nowadays. I just wanna see good football and see my team(s) win stuff.
@@alfvervaeke Man City is my team thru and thru. I enjoy Barcelona a lot also a team I route for and enjoy but I’d rather Barca go trophy-less than City
@@welpbuddy4417 Then I'm happy to have ya at the channel so we can celebrate city wins together!
