I just find how they play a bit tedious. Dare I say boring 🤔 I don’t get that at all. Aside from my obvious bias towards Bielsaball, City at their best are the best side to watch by miles IMO. Best elite level team to watch since Pep left Barca. ...to go to City. Coincidence? 🤔 |

If I’m ranking my preferences for who wins the CL, it’s Villarreal, City, Real, Liverpool. Nah, Liverpool aren’t where they are purely because of scummy Qatari money so have to be above City. It’s just because Liverpool fans are such insufferable cunts. If they actually won the quadruple it would be unbearable. The current team is surprisingly likeable. Klopp’s a dick but he’s very good. |

I dislike the petro dollars as much as anyone, but it is possible to separate the two. In terms of a spectacle etc anyway. To watch they are great, can enjoy watching them, De Bruyne is such a brilliant player, would much rather get behind a team like Villareal from a normal wee town outperforming amazingly for years on end. Don’t have much against Liverpool, although some of their fans are quite preposterous, they’ve won the CL a million times though. RM and MC as clubs represent all that’s screwed in modern football, the sooner they fuck off to their own league to play each other to death the better . |

Don't disagree with the wider point at all.

I realise my anti-Real sentiment is still mostly based on how much I hated them during the years of Ronaldo, Pepe and Ramos, the holy trinity of cunts. Take them out and put Ancelotti in charge and there’s not really much to hate (aside from the president being the last remaining person still convinced the super league’s a good idea). But it’ll take a few years to adjust.

What's going on with McManaman's hair? Foden's too for that matter.

How did you decide the greater dislike? I just find how they play a bit tedious. Dare I say boring 🤔 depends who’s playing us. It’s fucking boring watching us pass around a team |

But it’ll take a few years to adjust. They're a horrible club, incredibly arrogant and obnoxious as well as laughably corrupt. Have produced some fantastic teams over the years but no way I could like them. Franco's Team, right wing Ultras, a lot to dislike. |

Liverpool over City because as much as they're probably my biggest rivals over the years I've been a football fan, they're not Abu Dhabi FC and (away from the internet) their fans are alright. |
