Before the season began, Liverpool lost their greatest manager of the Premier League era and their only transfer activity consisted of spending just £10m on an injury-prone Italian winger.
None of their fans were claiming they would be winning the quadruple lmao

Man City have just secured a star player on a £1m-a-week deal, added a £70m striker - likely as backup - and signed a wonderkid for £33m.
Thanks for PSR, Newcastle can’t even sign their main target Khusanov, but Man City can also add him in for a laugh. It’s anticompetitive.
Abdukodir Khusanov's agent, Gairat Khasbiullin: “Newcastle was very close to the deal. They remained one of the favourites, and then was last to leave the race with #ManCity.
“As far as I understand, financial fair play had an impact. Well, they didn’t have enough time. Perhaps if they'd made an offer earlier, they'd have had time to come to an agreement.
“Then @ManCity put so much pressure on Lens that it was difficult to make a comparable offer. It was also influenced by the fact the French needed this money..." [via @championatasia/@Sport_Witness]

Rasmus Hojlund is the perfect example of how putting a young player in too early can completely derail their career. He was not ready for Man United at the time and the immense pressure has utterly biltzed his confidence. There is still a great player in there, IMO.

Honestly, Arne Slot hasn’t been spoken about enough and it’s weird how this referee excuse has started to emerge now it’s clear they’ll win. They have lost just once and on course for 90 pts. Given literally everyone wrote them off in the summer, it’s been an incredible season.

You’re right. The meme that he’s on a 19-game unbeaten run in all competitions, at 30 years old, he’s the youngest manager in Europe’s top five leagues, Reims pay a £22,000 fine each time Still manages because he doesn’t have his UEFA Pro license, has become overused

I’m not privileged or big enough to go to press conferences for Man Utd. The role of a journalist covering them should be to inform the fans comprehensively and reflect the entirety of the side, not filter through leaks from a select few which ultimately has a detriment on the pitch. It had gone too far.

Frenkie de Jong. Hear it's the same as before: Player only digging heels in to get owed wages, Man United haven't gone this far for someone who doesn't want to join - he's open to moving. Barcelona need to make a decent offer to cover the wages back and the deal will go through.

On Nunez, important to remember it's not a normal transfer: it's not just the highest bidder - Liverpool or Man United or whoever - or try again next year. The striker *will* be in the Premier League next season, that's the whole reason Mendes-Lopez are involved.

He’s a businessman, we get it. So trim the squad by one player, forgo certain bonuses, put an extra £500k in yourself - anything. But just don’t tell us sacking working class staff members was necessary when it amounts to next to zero of the overall expenditure.
