That's one less team you have to worry about now OP.

Who would have thought Norwich would have ended City’s chances of being unbeaten. Liverpool are still a danger to our crown though.

Liverpool will win the title this season

Get a grip

I'll be surprised if they make it past Christmas unbeaten in the league. They're a hell of a team no doubt but nothing about this pool side has ever looked unbeatable. Not strong enough in the middle of the park IMO. At least not with their preferred forward line. Just a little too much toward the "We'll just score one more than you." approach to be invincible.

As good as that achievement was, these Liverpool and City teams are both better than that Arsenal that season.

Think Liverpool will almost make it, then lose around about the beginning of May

Both City and Pool are better at scoring goals than that Arsenal side. Because both emphasise attack moreso than that Arsenal side. That is the very reason they've repeatedly failed to go unbeaten and will continue to do so.

Think of going unbeaten as a "Fit for purpose" feat. Both teams overwhelming attacking emphasis, makes it damned near impossible that they won't lose one game somewhere along the line.

The invincibles could be as formidable defensively as they were offensively. Something neither pool nor city can even begin to claim. They may be better sides in some respects, however that doesn't make them better suited to task of being invincible.

You say they can't claim to be as formidable defensively as the Invincibles yet they both conceded fewer goals last season. Liverpool only lost one game and it was to the rivals who won a domestic treble which basically decided the title race. Arsenal never had that level of competition in that season and of course you don't go unbeaten a whole season without luck along the way.

So it's a unique achievement but honestly I don't know if I'd have them in a top 5 of best PL teams ever based on seasons.

I’m not sure there is a single Liverpool fan out there who would not trade a 97 point 2nd place season for an unbeaten 90 point 1st place season

Well they won the CL in the end so they wouldn't be trading that season.

Liverpool fans wouldn't trade a CL for a PL? Don't be a fool.

posted on 15/9/19

You can definitely make a case for this City team being the greatest in PL history (I think they are tbh) but making a case for a team that has never won the league is ridiculous 😑

I bet you they wouldn't trade last season with Arsenal's season, yes.

comment by Spurtle (U1608)

Well a few might, but majority would stick with what they did last season I reckon.

They won the CL last season. 99% of Liverpool fans want the league. Doesn't even matter if it's unbeaten.
