Utd 12/13
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Won it at a canter. Would have surpassed 90 points if they had needed to. Unlucky to go out to a very good Real Madrid side in the CL.

I have to disagree with you there.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The league as a whole was utterly crap for that season. Utd lost like 6 games? Could be wrong here.
Also conceded 40+ goals if I remember correctly.

Only 3 players stood out that season. RVP, Suarez & Bale.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Lost a game or 2 after the league was won I think. Defensively I agree we weren’t great.

It wasn’t the greatest league that season but you argue the exact same for this season.

Didn't we make a CL final in 10/11?


----------------------------------------------------------------------
Yes.

In fairness we beat Marseille, Chelsea and Schalke in the knockouts. Not exactly European powerhouses.

Don't think it's fair yo call it the worst ever pl winner though.

Compare that European run to English sides in the 90s and the only conclusion is that the bar was raised by 2011.

Any team who wins the league and makes a CL final can surely not be the worst ever winners.

Not really. We're not conceding an insane amount of goals nor look like losing 5+ games in the league.

It's been proven that City's points per game is on track with last season's at this stage of the season.

We have just been on another level. City would be walking the league again if it wasn't for us.

Some of those losses were when the league was wrapped up.

City are nowhere near as good as last season. If they win all their remaining games they end up with 87 points. They won last season with 98 points.

The same City that only lead Leicester by 4 points?

Liverpool have been incredible at getting results but it isn’t a strong league this year. Certainly no stronger than 12/13.

Yeah my bad I actually made a mistake with that stat. I think it's on average over the past 3 or 5 seasons. Can't remember right now.

It shows that the top 6 on average are getting around the same number of points at the same stage of the season over the past few seasons...we've just been next level.

You have been relentless no doubt.

I’m just making the argument that I don’t think the 12/13 team is the worst to win the league.

Won 28 games and probably would have surpassed 30 wins if required.

Had some outstanding performers that like De Gea, Rafael, Carrick and RVP.

Far better than our side in 10/11.

I just offered it up as a suggestion...it could be in the discussion though.

Shouldn’t even be in the discussion though.

Not so sure Carrick and rafael were ‘stand out’, good, but stand out is a bit much. RVP and ddg were on another level thiough

Fair. Both very good and made team of the season if I remember correctly.

Shame Rafael’s career fizzled out so fast. Injuries didn’t help I guess.

Yeah for a while despite being lightweight he looked like he’d do really well, just never really did
