Why Manchester City... Deserve the Title :(

As you may of guessed, I'm a Man United fan so can you just imagine how painful this is to write! So with that in mind i'll try and keep this as short and sweet as possible, before I throw myself off a cliff.

The way i see it is this, City..deserve to win the premier league this year simply because they have won the games that they've had to win. Whereas United have thrown away 8 point and two goal leads. I'm not calling it complacency on Uniteds part but more of an immaturity - which is surprising given that we've had the old guard Paul back and Ryan and Rio playing regularly as well. United could of had this title sewn up long ago but its our own fault if/when City claim their first title in decades and to be honest, its hard to say that they haven't deserved it - from simply a football point of view!!


City look like a team that is constantly evolving every game, and when you look at the two line-ups, men to men you have to say that city just look solid. The spine of the team is as strong, if not stronger than many of the top European teams, and it is such flexible system with De Jong balancing out the human bulldozer that is Yaya Toure - who without, city would be no where!

Whoever wins the league next weekend, and Ive  almost resigned to the fact it will be city because like i say, they win when they have to, united seem to have folded in similar position. so yea, who ever wins next weekend will have provided the neutrals with an exciting finale and it has been exciting you cant deny that. But i just hope this isn't the start of City domination because the way they've gone about it - buying the title - aggravates me because it just makes a mockery of how clubs should aspire to win things. Buying it rather than earning it.
