"His achievements have been overshadowed by the 130 illegal dealings Highly likely the titles will be stripped and they are thrown out of the league" I hope they don't get thrown out of the PL and dumped at the bottom of the pyramid. Otherwise every season they will run away with the title in whatever league they are, thereby denying a real football team the chance of winning that league. Hugely demoralising. | |||

"What defines a 'real' football team in the Premier League? Leicester City aside, this century it's only been won by teams with serious money to spend..." There are no 'real' football teams in the PL, and few in the Championship. Just a load of foreign owned international XIs with few British players and even fewer local. No wonder our national team are rubbish. We don't have a big enough pool of players at the top level to draw on. | |||

"Not that surprising, their team is ageing, all their key players are 30+ except a handful, their midfield of Gundogan and Kovacic is hilarious, and Foden isn’t the baller everyone thought he was " ... ... Ederson has had a poor season so far by his standards. Grealish when playing has been ineffectual. A rebuild is clearly needed. | |||

Valid points yet it's lifelong supporters who are still the backbone of teams. Indeed 'football without fans is nothing'. | |||

You think the England team, ranked 4th in the world behind Argentina, France and Spain, are rubbish? | |||

"How many trophies have England won in the last 50 years compared to the other three you mentioned? And that's despite what many consider to be the best domestic league in the world." I'm really not sure now is the time to be slating the England team though. We are producing more tip quality players than ever and they are mostly getting the chances they deserve now. This argument feels about a decade old. | |||
