A famous follower of the Blues, who is revelling in another Premier League title triumph, believes arch-rivals have become stuck in a serious rut
Manchester United are “in trouble”, says Noel Gallagher, with the former Oasis star seeing the struggles of Paul Pogba and Co set to continue as Manchester City go from strength to strength.
City fan Gallagher is delighting in those struggles, telling talkSPORT of the differences that now exist on opposing sides of the Manchester divide: “It’s all about the team [at City].
“The other mob in Stretford, they’re just buying individuals. You see [Alexis] Sanchez and [Paul] Pogba.
“They’re in trouble. They remind me of where we were in the late 1980s/early 90s – they’re just trying to buy their way out of trouble now.
“As long as [Pep] Guardiola’s here, they’re not getting anywhere near us. No one is.”
Liverpool got to within a point of City in this season’s title race, but Gallagher is not convinced that the Reds will be able to maintain those standards and come back into contention next term.
He added: “Even next season, can Liverpool be any better than that? They’ve jammed it this season.
“I think next season, Liverpool don’t get near us either.”
