Lucky bounce. lol They took it to you guys all game long.
Lol at Tottenham better than Chelsea. |
I would actually put them ahead of Chelsea after some consideration. Chelsea have been pretty miserable this season. Chelsea probably have the better players but they don't fit into the system AVB is trying to run and they are really unimpressive at the moment.

I agree that they've been unimpressive at times, but even as bad as they've been they still controlled the majority of the game in White Hart Lane,, IMO.

They did not control the majority of the game by any stretch of the imagination. We blew them away for the majority of the first half, with the second going to Chelsea. It was a very even game, in no way were we dominated. We were actually unlucky not to win the game in the end.
We are still 2 points ahead of them with a game in hand.... I like our position.

Come on man outside of the first 10 minutes and the last 5 we controlled that game.

Are you serious? You might have had a sill amount of long range, off target shots but Chelsea did not control the game. It was a very even game as I already said. We were far better in the first half and Chelsea were better in the second. To say Chelsea controled 'the majority' of the game is just flat out wrong.

I disagree. They dominated the second half but the first half was RM. After the score was 2-1, RM went out of their system and the wheels fell off.
I also am a big fan of Bayern Munich this year as far as top teams go. It's hard because I want to throw in MU and MC but not being in the final 16 in the CL. It's kind of like in the NFL I know the Ravens are the division winners but I still like the Steelers over them.

Yeah, we need to win something more than the FA Cup to be top five IMO.

To be honest I have no idea what this has to do with anything. It doesn't matter if they haven't won anything, their squad is fantastic. They can go toe to toe with any team on the planet. Obviously Barca are top of the pile but from two down I see no reason why City shouldn't be there. Their CL exit was disappointing but they are still an extremely talented club and not winning anything major doesn't change that fact.

1 FA Cup.
And two Europa League appearances?
I don't care how good they "could be", right now they have proven nothing.

Couldn't you make that argument for Bayern or Real? When is the last time they won anything substantial? They sure haven't won anything with the current crop of players on their squads. Chelsea look half the team they used to be, United are out of the CL and while challenging for the league don't look near as convincing as in years past, Arsenal are completely out of the title race and just aren't good enough to be top five. The Italian teams are good teams but I don't think they are near the same level or will win the CL. I just think that two spot is wide open and I don't think City shouldn't be included in the debate at least.

Seeing AC Milan so high up in some lists is giving me lulz. I was really unimpressed with them, I rate Napoli well above them as the best Italian side.
