    No, 90+ points this season doesn't automatically mean that this seasons team is better than the team that won the league with fewer points fifteen twenty years ago.

    That's not how it works, you may as well just look at numbers on a page. Which you do anyway of course.

    The United teams of '94, '99 and 2008 would hand City and Liverpool's arses to them mate.

    The best of those teams got 92 points mate, that means they lost more and won less games than The current Liverpool and City sides

    But that doesn't mean they were better cos points don't tell you how good a team is.

    Is that right?

    Tell me how the 94 98 and 04 teams were better then? What are you basing that theory on?

    Good job you turned it off

    You'd have mixed emotions and lots of confusion over that little bumfest

    Having seen them all play.

    You're completley ignoring everything I said in the previous post.

    If in your world most points must = best then I can't discuss this.

    I bet in the same breath you'll turn round and say that Liverpool's european cups are equally as valid as the champions league ones despite being piss easy to win by comparison.

    Because it's just the same. Same trophy at end = save level of opposition.

    Tell you what, if your team wins the CL in the same year as having won the league, then defends it, i'll give some kudos to them being unquestionably a great side.

    Lots of points doesn't cut it, sorry.

    When that side has to contend with the endless supply of funds that city have I'll take notice.

    The team that has won 1 PL and 1 CL in 6 years is manager of the century and best team ever?

    Next Gareth Southgate is the best manager england have had with all his top 4 finishes

    Just waiting for one of the spurs boys to tell us that they were the best team a few years ago when they won most calendar points in a season

    Them tears don't give Klopp anymore league titles, I'm afraid. He was tactically outdone by King Pep, yesterday. I know that, you know that and everybody who watched the match knows that ;)

    You'll break him with them facts, Bobby. The Liverpool lads are a bit delicate at the moment with their inferior complex to Pep.
