Who is the best team in Premier League history?
Saturday social is powered by EA Sports
FIFA 23 with PlayStation but we’ve got
to start the show by talking about
Manchester City Joe that performance my
word midweek against what are we
watching what are we watching the
aggregate score against the the most
dominant team in champions league
history was 5-1 in a semi-final and also
don’t forget that was a few days after
they’d be Everton three nil which means
I hate to admit to you the treble as
United fan is still on and it got a
little bit shaky you know it’s getting a
bit shaky don’t get nervous just don’t
get a bit shaky if they get a lot of
people talking though didn’t it about
where this man City team ranks amongst
the greatest ever and that is the little
task that we’ve given our guests today
yeah absolutely so in front of our
guests we’ve got some of the greatest
teams in premier league history you’re
gonna have to come to an agreement to
build the list of the five greatest
teams in premier league history it’s not
going to be easy to agree I don’t think
I’ve seen your suggestions and they are
quite different and at the end of it
we’ll ask you where this Manchester City
side feature on that list where are you
gonna put them so should we jump
straight in yeah at number five number
five who do you want a five at number
five I’ve talked in have you got any
sort of huge uh huge thoughts on this
one yeah I do I think the number five I
would personally go with Arsenal
invincibles I think they deserve to be
on the board do you know which one that
is Arsenal and Vince yeah
now the reason it isn’t first and some
people might put it higher is because
the season itself as you said will have
12 draws if they didn’t break any
records in terms of points but to go a
whole season without losing is a record
that no one has anything to ever do that
yeah no only team to ever do that and in
itself that’s an incredible start and
and a Rory what’s your thoughts no my
thoughts on this
city steady
I don’t think the invincibles are on the
list come on Rory would they be well
I’ve got no I’ve got another Arsenal
team here this is a disgrace a disgrace
The Establishment that we’re not having
Invincible on the list already okay okay
you’ve got another awesome before you
talk about that team why no Invincible I
think firstly being Invincible I think
it’s an arbitrary factor I don’t think
it means anything it’s completely
meaningless you could you could go
invincible and be relegated you could
draw everything but they didn’t they
want the league but being Invincible it
doesn’t actually mean anything I also
think that we all buy into this
invincibility thing it doesn’t exist
like ask Wayne Bridge how Invincible
this Arsenal team are Wayne Bridge will
disagree with you they actually Lost
That season seven games so calling them
Invincible I think is a bit of a
misnomer and it isn’t as good as this
Arsenal team this Arsenal team of 2002
was Sensational by the way I think this
is a very important fact arson Wenger
himself arson Wenger himself Chris and
this his best ever team so this team yes
it secured three less points than the
invincibles but it also secured two
trophies this team won the double
winning the double is historic so this
is this is what we have to wait out
three points more an incredible season
one that Arsenal fans their trophy is
golden that one has three points less
yes they want another trophy I’m happy
to put either team on the board I’m just
happy that what I would say but either
is yes that’s a great winning the double
you’re right that is a double winning
team but other teams have done the
double before and after that no other
team has gone uninvincible before or
after that in the Premier League but is
the pursuit of football not for trophy
accumulation and therefore the more
trophies you accumulate the better the
season is it not that simple sometimes
football like sometimes we try and break
football down and make this really
complex game other times it’s win as
many trophies as possible and this this
team won more silverware than that team
also I’m gonna go through it again you
want to argue with me fair but awesome
Wenger said this is happening I think
it’s the invincibles if we’re picking
between the two I would say invincible
as well also by the way when we say
invincible if any Preston fans I’ll
watch we know they did go Invincible
back in the day before the Premier
League Pace anyone jumps off should we
go Invincible then I think I think
don’t forget we can move this about and
then we’ll be moving again when it comes
to cities so uh Rory do you want to take
the lead for the fourth best team in
Premier league history yes I for fourth
my when you went man united my shout is
going to be Manchester United
Okay I’m gonna go Manchester United that
beat you in the Champions League final
the beats in the Champions League final
won the Premier League I think arguably
has the most mesmerizing front three
that the Premier League’s ever seen like
what was going on then with you know
Cristiano Ronaldo uh Wayne Rooney Carlos
Tevez I think that they were at times
unplayable it obviously had the tail end
of people like Paul scholes and the the
class of 92. it felt like such a
dominant era for Manchester United and
the other thing that I always want to
bring into this context is very
important
Manchester United with dominant then
Chelsea came along Chelsea became the
dominant team Chelsea were winning
Premier League they then got it back
they called it back yeah back so I think
that this this 2018 certainly deserved
three titles in a row that team
obviously multiple Champions League
finals in around there they were kind of
unfortunate that they were up against
you know peps Barcelona side yeah that
was maybe the greatest team football’s
ever seen emerging yeah
I think I think if if they were up
against any any other opposition they
would have had another Champions League
to their name yeah and then I think
there would be no question mark about
this I know that they’re the small
margins that we operate but I think the
08 Manchester United Team is weirdly I
think chronically underlooked and under
represented in these conversations
actually Rory I completely agree with
you but do you I’m going to bring in
another uh competitor another United
team that actually won the treble and
it’s low no I’m not saying this slow
listen if you were to play Tevez Rooney
Ronaldo 87 points in the Premier League
17 nine points we’re talking about the
Premier League here if they faced off
which team wins it’s obviously they
won’t wait I know they want another one
of their Trophies the treble winners
absolutely they both deserve to be on
the board but we’ve got a centurions to
talk about we’ve got some of the best
teams we’ve seen over the last few years
they both deserve to be on the board I
would honestly I would say that that
Ronaldo Rooney and Tevez era would score
more goals especially growing up in
alteringham 01 that team just had the
whole world looking at them I think I
think on their day they would win I know
it’s a treble over how many trophies
less Trophies did they was that a double
or yeah
they both deserve to be on the board
that’s what I’m saying oh yeah there’s
no there’s no doubt that they’re on the
board this the reason why I’m what I’ve
got to push back on though I don’t want
to to spoil the surprise but I’m gonna
fight tooth and nail for that to be my
number one number one over centurions of
course of everything over the city’s
team right now winning the treble is
impossible it’s like it’s literally
impossible that’s why it’s here I know
it’s potentially going to happen again
and Manchester City are Sensational but
a treble is impossible are you happy to
put 07 yeah let’s put 0708 and four okay
yeah because there’s a lot of discussion
to be had okay three
is there an agreement here potentially
every I think there is possibly an
agreement three I’m going to go
Centurion oh no there’s not gonna be
agreement then
three I’m going I mean going centurions
obviously the highest points total in
premier league history yeah and and
three domestic trophies uh no two
domestic trophies highest points total
ever I think that this is It’s a
disgrace that you’re putting this low
what what’s your why most of waypoints
most points broken they had about four
players that got double figures of
assists David Silva kdb Raheem Sterling
uh the list goes on it was one of the
most incredible teams they brought all
the records they broke all the records
how I mean we’re talking about the
Premier League here well they didn’t
break all the records because they
didn’t do the Trap like that if we no
we’re talking about the Premier League
it’s a Premier League team in Premier
League team in Premier league history if
you’re if you’re gonna argue for this to
be higher
then it needs to eclipse the two teams
that you think it goes above so you
would argue for this number one
absolutely I believe that team if it
faced off against any of the squads
we’ve got here it would win if you want
it three you want it one do we agree on
Two And we look at your other choices
okay so here we go right so for my my
shout for second which may now have to
go in third was mourinho’s first year
Mourinho Landing in the Premier League
totally changing the history of Chelsea
Chelsea’s first title for 50 years the
stinginess the mizey miserliness at the
back the way that we just didn’t
conceive goals like it became a joke
like who’s going to score against
Chelsea I think Luke Moore man should do
it for for Aston Villa but it became a
bit of a bit of a theme you know like
who is ever going to score against
Chelsea we conceded 15 goals that season
and you know how a lot of Records I
think are there to be broken so
points tallies for example I remember
when 90 points made you great and I
didn’t think anybody would get beyond
that and they’ve got Beyond it I
Remember When Alan Shearer’s record felt
like it was insurmountable and now
obviously it’s looking like Harry Kane
will do it yeah 15 goals at the back
will never be beaten like I genuinely
believe that 15 goals John Terry Ricardo
Carvalho and petitech I think that that
is the most stinging yeah
like nobody gets close you know we
forget as well then it was a Wenger
Fergie constantly going for the league
and it was Mourinho to come in bring a
few Lads from Porto and just absolutely
smash it break the record only conceding
15 goals I completely agree that this
deserves to be on the board even though
I was three years old and I relied on
Premier League years to watch this it’s
still a great Squad okay two trophies as
well so you’re putting that in three
which means you’ve got one left am I
guessing that it is the I’m a treble
winning Man United Team just it just
simply has to be in my opinion it just
has to be the trouble winning Manchester
United Team I almost see this as
non-negotiable they won a treble which
you know when you talk about winning a
treble if you look back over history
it’s so difficult to do I’m talking
about like the elite teams in Europe
don’t do this I think I think PSV did it
once in the 70s I think Bayern Munich
have done it it’s so difficult
but when when you think about the clubs
that have done it IX it’s like the creme
de la yeah it’s so difficult I would
also agree I I think it is you have to
have the treble winners because they are
the three biggest trophies no one else
has done it in this country and it’s so
difficult you know the players in this
team like you know when when Thug just
said there and and I think there’s a I
see where you’re coming from but you
know if dogs sort of goes if you if they
played each other they win I don’t
necessarily think that’s a given I think
that this Midfield hold on this team
this team I’ve got in my hand right now
destroys that team no it’s Harland de
bruyne not City team we’ve just seen
smash Real Madrid 14 time Champions did
it last year there’s no one better ever
than this era of Manchester City well in
the world ever if the Premier League
Premier League I think I think on some
on some level that’s true I think this
collection of Manchester City players
are possibly the best but as far first
elevens this Manchester United first 11
was basically unplayable okay I think
they lost six games in the league but
they want every trophy that they could
possibly win aside from the league up
okay they’d want to travel since you’re
about to be together
you have a really good memory they’re
only if she lost three games in the
league three games in the league if it
wasn’t for Nathan Jones this could have
been a quadruple you you’re forgetting
that yeah they’ve had an immense season
no one can stop them that almost flags
with vulnerability rather than something
positive they went out of the cup to
Southampton and Nathan Jones
is on the board for now but yeah if
treblewood is no more for now and then I
want to hear where what what Joe they
they won the treble it has to be number
one you’re looking at that I agree with
David Beckham you’re looking at like a
Dwight York Teddy sharing them Andy Cole
this to Andy called one of the best
strikers to have ever played the game
Who somehow gets forgotten Roy Keane
possibly arguably the best Captain to
have ever played the game how can this
team be chronically under look like I
agree put that up for now but then my
point is is I mean we saw Gary Neville
and Jamie Carroll do a really
interesting piece didn’t we at the start
of the week on how many players get in
each team how many players from the
current Manchester City side that are
battling for a treble and look like
they’re gonna cut a can to there we’re
getting that man united team let’s start
off by saying Gary and Phil Neville will
get absolutely destroyed by
let’s use Mars as an example like the
other side right real Mario is
Sensational player when I did my
combined 11 of Real Madrid versus Man
City I said Mario is in it combined 11
of those two Mario’s don’t get any
change out Gary Neville
Morris doesn’t get any change out of
Gary Neville that’s that’s this has
become this has become a bit maybe I
agree with you here
there’s been a change of narrative
recently of like there were some really
bad these players were like illegal that
team was outrageous as well I’m not I’m
not undermining what this team has done
I’m saying they’re incredible the treble
is is such a a great thing to break but
what I’m saying is this city team would
win okay so we expected you need to put
one off the board because it’s going to
be a definitive five increase Man City
team do you want to just drop every down
where did you put City
they do win it let’s say they go on to
win it it’s time to it’s time to own up
and accept that Harlan deserves to be
first Deborah
I think if they win a treble and the
crazy situation that we’re living in now
is that I now believe the treble is more
likely to happen than not that’s our
amazing it is if it happens then we have
to revisit this but as things stand
today Manchester United are the only
team to have won the treble and
therefore they’re the only team that go
in at numbers we need a decision and you
let me have my decision to start so I
agree with that so we’ll move everybody
down go on that from second just put
them out there now because I don’t know
yeah it’s gonna be fiddly to move them
all around isn’t it yeah
so there is confirmation uh to be fine I
think man city will win the travel and
then I think it’s an amazing debate uh
yes currently though they have got the
treble winners man united is the
greatest team in Premier league history
with this city team as second so let us
know what you think that is that harsh
on this city team or is that right on
that man united team I enjoyed that
