I hear a lot of Utd fans contenting themselves with the narrative that Liverpool are benefitting from a one off failure of ALL the competing clubs and this is a unique event compared to all the seasons preceding against teams with smaller squads, devastating injuries and youth team players filling their benches..
This is definitely not only Utd fans saying this Mikey. I’ve been hearing this a lot. In fairness, a lot of fans said the same when Leicester won it. Did they care when they lifted the title? Of course not. A title is a title. Nobody remembers how strong the competition was a few years down the line. In fact, people were saying the exact same thing when Mourinho took a poor Utd to a 2nd placed finish. “You’re only there because everyone else is having an off season”. Looking back, there’s probably a lot of truth in that. Similarly when Ole came 2nd with us. We took advantage of everyone else being pretty rubbish all at once. No shame in that.
