It is impossible for Man City to defend the title for five consecutive seasons because it is certain that other teams will also try to make changes so that they can break Man City's dominance in the League. Now Liverpool are much stronger and maybe they have a much bigger chance to win the title this season.
Impossible? Manchester City will prove you wrong in the end of season, Liverpool is strong, but I believe if they lost Salah or Diaz, they will not able to perform anymore.
By only playing four matches, the fans felt sad that Ruud left them, in fact they did not feel sad when Ten Hag left the team even though Ten Hag coached the MU team for quite a long time, the reason being that Ruud left a good impression while ETH left a bad impression, if a coach leaves a bad impression even though he has a lot of achievements, the fans will never consider him.
What are these lot of achievements that achieved by Ten Hag? cheeseburger and hamburger trophy (FA and EFL)? achievement to kick Ronaldo? or achievement to bringing his fellow national players?
Indeed not many coach can do that especially kicking Ronaldo out, only a coach without brain did that.
