When you actually think about it, City Liverpool Chelsea PSG and Bayern are on another level compared to the rest of the teams in Europe. Unfortunately this is a big issue and it totally makes sense why there have been calls for a Super League. Whilst the Super League that was proposed by Perez has died down, it will definitely return with slight tweaks to it, I'm sure.

As long as FFP is in place, it’s going to be a closed shop. City and Chelsea got the money at the right time. United and Liverpool will always be around with their overseas fans and revenue that generates.

PSG Chelsea Bayern Juve Madrid Barca all lose lots of games every season. Even very good Barca teams with prime Messi Iniesta etc. lost games.

City and Liverpool barely lose any. Spending is one thing. Doping for ridiculous consistency is another.

That's just amazingly not true. I don't even have to think that hard I know some of those have had seasons with maybe 4 or 5 losses the whole way through.

There's always a few teams that are on another level though. In the 2000's it was United/Chelsea/Milan/Liverpool/Barca for a few years. Then it was Barca/Real/Atletico/Bayern/Juve when the Prem teams were in a rut. Since the Prem teams got the best managers in and Barca/Real let their teams get old it flipped back again.

Barca/Real/United/Juve will get competitive again and Liverpool will drop off once Klopp goes.

Likewise for City and Pep.

They’ve got a huge chance at all 4 trophies. They don’t get injuries, they get fortuitous refereeing decisions, fixtures are nicely in their favour, and teams have a mental block about performing against them and putting the ball in the net.

Could one of reasons be they're actually decent? or is that down to the peds? I can't stand them but it would be crazy to not recognize that.

I’ve never said they’re not decent, but theee’s loads of decent teams across Europe with good squads (potentially better on paper) good managers and they all have off days, bad injuries, patches of bad form, bad luck etc.

Liverpool had one half season last year when they were rancid, but aside from that they’ve been in god like form for multiple seasons now. Barely losing league games, hardly picking up injuries, just repeatable form week after week season after season.

Why is it such a problem for the likes of PSG Chelsea Barcelona Madrid United Juventus to have this sort of form yet City and Liverpool are doing it season after season now.
