I personally think they will fall slightly short. Once the title is won, the hunger will drop off for the players.Originally Posted by Stagger
yes football is a bit of a joke nowadays. Guardiola spent hundreds of millions and it didn't happen the first season. So spent hundreds of millions again last summer, and they have the best team, and now it's all because he's some kind of managerial supremo. Bollocks.
I absolutely detest football at the top level now, especially in this country. Whether that is a bit more than coincidence that my team have dropped like an anvil out of the top divisions, I don't know. But I like to think that it's because I finally got into some sports which require real effort for very little 'material' reward.
Italian football is the best for me. The passion of the Italian fans for the game is still there, even at the big teams. And the usual accusations thrown at Italian football (cheating, negative play, etc) are pretty much prevalent throughout the world now.
