No matter how poor Man City performance during that period, they remain a team capable of quickly rebounding. Proving that they can consistently finish in third place doesn't make them look down upon. Next season Liverpool, Man City, and Arsenal must make the league more exciting than ever after actively adding new players to the squad.
Manchester City is much stronger than people outside think because of what happened last season. A lot of people have been looking down on them, but Manchester City is bigger than what they think, and they know that Manchester City needs to be more serious about what happened last season, and they did not do very well last season, and this is one of the reasons why a lot of people are gaslighting Manchester City. But I'm sure that thing will look different. I know my club they are capable of doing better.
And Arsenal is worse than Manchester City because Arsenal has not win anything, but City has won the Premier League more than once and also won the Champions League, so there is more achievement than Arsenal, so this is why the two of them can not be compared, and this is all the reason why people are even comparing the two.
