HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 8 июн 2024
- Manchester City are officially the second most successful team in Premier League history, with 5 titles to their name (joint with Chelsea). Quite a crazy fact, if you think about it.
However, their upward trajectory and overall dominance has not always been the norm. So how good were Manchester City before they won their first Premier League title.
And even more so, how did they accomplish this feat?

If aguero didn't score and united won the league , sir Alex would of retired there and then ,for that reason I'll always be grateful to aguero , for giving fergie the fire for one more fight .
and thank him for shifting power to the etihhad😂😂and oh making sure that old poop smelling grand pa got to play vs pep and messi😂😂😂
got hammered then retired😂
@@Somi_did_it-omg my brain died reading this

@@Somi_did_it-omg 💀bruh
I just love how Alex Ferguson is fucked by argentina player messi and aguero🤣
Cant wait to see your "Did Newcastle buy the League" vid in a few years 😂
If only Newcastle stay in the league. They are most likely to be relegated.
Which title?
Can't wait to see his "Newcastle, the new Malaga" video in a few years
Also United spends millions and doesn't win the league.
Not gonna happen they’re going down
Your channel is criminally underrated. I have learnt so much of the past from your videos. Well explained well scripted,edited etc. Finally a video on Man City💙🤟
Cheers my man! Yeah, a City video of any kind was long overdue!
@@FootballIconic Liverpool fc
"The newspaper that ran the story was owned by the man that funded City's team." Back when journalism was still journalism.
Yeah, you won’t see a bad headline about Liverpool in the New York Times
@@GuinessOriginaltrue to that
As a united fan I was pissed as hell. But then you realise what a game it was and that i was able to see the iconic agueroooo shout live. Honestly it was truly incredible.
You can't be a United fan if you enjoyed that AGUEROOOOOO. It's like me being a madrid fan actually enjoying Messi trashing us, dafuq you smoking.
@@BulbaZod please read my comment again. I said I was pissed. But later I absorbed it and appreciated this iconic moment. And with regards to what you said if I said city is trash while united is behind them or as a Madrid fan say Barcelona did well its not me being a traitor or anything its just me accepting the fact that they were better.
@@shahnidismail8941 my bad bro
@@BulbaZod np
@@BulbaZod Does that mean that i can't be a Gunner if i was enjoyed Tottenham's 18/19 Champions League-campaign?
Because i am a Gunner. :P
You should do a brief history of Tottenham Hotspur: Their success in the past, the failure to succeed in recent history and how close they have gotten compared to their rivals who have been able to get over the line.
Love ur channel btw ❤️
Its di history of di tottenham
Weren't they in a CL final recently?
@@NoName-xc6cg Yup, and lost it, just like many other finals over the last years! That's what the OP means with "how close they have gotten" I think
I love how you mentioned that Man City had success in the past while showing a clip of their 1969 FA Cup win, too many people repeat the same tired narrative that they have no history and were born in 2008, the same applies to Chelsea and PSG before their takeovers.
PSG, Chelsea and Man City basically had 0 history before takeovers. They were never top clubs before being bought.
@@venetoxyt8332 History is history. It's not always glorious, not always successful. In sporting terms, it's often cyclical with success coming in fits and starts. Even United, Liverpool and Arsenal have had their days in the doldrums.
@@dominicbarden4436 Yeah but Arsenal, Man United and Liverpool didn't become successful after being bought by a billionaire
@@dominicbarden4436 it's not about history, it's about football history as a top club
@@bipin249 Ok so Chelsea and City have had more success in recent years, so what? History means nothing in terms of performance in the present. No disrespect to the likes of Arsenal, United and Liverpool but to be honest, I imagine having more money than other teams was probably a fair part of their successes back in the day, especially in the 80s and 90s as the commercial side of things started to gain importance.
Chelsea's major honours list before Abramovich:
First Division: 1954-55
FA Cup: 1969-70, 1996-97, 1999-00
League Cup: 1964-65, 1997-98
Cup Winners Cup: 1970-71, 1997-98
In terms of other trophies:
Second Division: 1983-84, 1988-89
Full Members Cup: 1985-86, 1989-90
Community Shield: 1955, 2000
UEFA Super Cup: 1998
Granted in the eyes of the likes of Arsenal, United and Liverpool, it's pretty mediocre but most team's records are quite frankly, mediocre in comparison to those three and overall I'd say Chelsea's is fairly respectable. Besides, in the few years before Abramovich took over I'd say that Chelsea were starting to establish themselves among the top teams in the league. In the five seasons before Abramovich took over they finished 3rd, 5th, 6th, 6th and 4th. It wasn't as though they came from absolutely nowhere. Yes the money helped a lot, but it would've helped any team a lot.
Kompany was a centre back at rsca. it was hamburg and man city that experimented him as a defensive midfielder. But he started his career as a technically gifted central defender.
Even to this day, every time I hear that commentary I shiver and get goosebumps. God Bless Aguero and Martin Tayler.
This is a underrated RUclips channel 👌🏾🔥🔥🔥
Cheers! You're an underrated human (Not sure if that makes any sense, but I'm gonna post it anyway).
I remember being at the Sunderland - Manchester United game, the atmosphere was so tense. All the MU players were clapping after Aguero got that winning goal during the City game. Sunderland fans screaming whatever it was again, all in payback of when we beat City during that same season. Bittersweet.
All in good faith, though, nice job to City ever since that - maybe you guys will win a Champions League eventually.
Yeah. Maybe.
After the europa league defeat you just had to do it ti us (man utd fans)
Ooooooooooooooooff
Imagine you won Europa league and we won UCL for a Manchester derby super cup? 😂
@@ethanbegley93 Well this aged well 😅
Chelsea vs Villareal here we go!
@@dickmccarthy9496 ;c
@@ethanbegley93 We've won both, we leave the imagining to you plastic financially doped oil clubs.
Thank you so much for this video. I hoped to get a city vid after ur last vid. Your videos are quality as always.
Thanks! Yeah, these guys definitely deserve their flowers!
This guys humour is unmatchable, underrated channel. Good video
Every great team eventually has a downfall, but legendary teams get back up every time.
So u think city is legendary?
yes so sunderland are not a legendary team, neither are norwich and nottingham forest who have won what you have not won yet even after having a good squad and spending more than a billion pounds
and city never really were that good before sheikh took us in
Do a video on how utd bought the league for decades and how they’re currently buying 7th
Lol
Seriously one of the best footy channels on RUclips, hope your channel keeps growing & gets the attention it deserves. I sent your videos to my friends, you should have at least 100k subs
Cheers, Richard! Really appreciate that. Haha fingers crossed!
I began from the Chelsea video and I've finally watched all your videos and I your content is really good.
The best part of all this the articles on your website is even and better and I definitely read it with your voice, and those jokes that you make in the video and articles are better when read in your voice.
Thank you for sharing so much information in depth about this game it's been really informative and thought me a lot of things.
Very under rated channel ♥️
Yaya Toure, Aguero, David Silva and Kompany. What a legendary group
See I’ve grown up in my household as the only Manchester City fan tackling my Manchester United fan based parents and siblings I have now uncovered from Football Iconic the deep history of a club I’ve supported from the beginning without a second thought and one I’ll support until the end of my days...seeing the lows from before I entered the world, seeing the desire of Man City to achieve greatness, and to see us now dominating for a video long overdue I must say thanks for the past fans, managers, owners of the club and icons that believed in our club💙 for you have impact a lot of City fans life seeing that you guys never ceased to believe in Manchester City in the of drought you have given me and other fans the true meaning of being a Manchester City fan..watching the history shown from our succession and struggles in 1904 to present gave me goosebumps and had me very emotional especially the scene of the 2011-2012 season made me feel I was right there; present in the moment.
To Football Icons thank you for this informative video that was well scripted, edited and executed.
Again “ YOU CAN ONLY SEE MORE POTS ON THE SELF AND BEFORE LONG, THE CHAMPIONS LEAGUE”
I bleed blue
Love you Manchester City now and forever
💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙
💙💙💙
Football iconic very very well organized content am in love.
I love city but wow well put.. continue the great work
This video was incredibly informative and entertaining to watch.
Awesome channel. I stumbled onto it completely by accident on a suggestion after watching an HITC Sevens video and absolutely love your content.
One quick note though, at 09:46 you showed a list of players that were bought ahead of the 08/09 campaign and suggested that they were bought after the takeover. Zabaleta and all the names before him, in particular Kompany, were bought before the takeover, not after.
i still get goosebumps watching the qpr title decider. and in all honesty, I think at least for me in the modern era of man city, the 2012 side will always rank as number one. and not because of the quality in the side, or how fantastic of a manager Mancini is, but rather because of the milestone they achieved for the club and what happened thereafter. the mystique around that side is something that is just unquantifiable.
And to think that if Ballotelli had been rightly sent off, like he should of been against Tottenham earlier in the season. That moment probably would of most likely never of happened.
Great video. Keep them coming.
Just leaving another request to make a video about PUYOL
I don't know how you only have 29k subscribers, you deserve much more!
Only good thing is you still read the comments most likely. Could you do a video on the Claude Makelele and Ngolo Kante and the comparisons made between them?
Also, video on Frank Lampard would be great as you already made one on Steven Gerrard :)
Bro how do you have 25k?💀 Honestly, not even exaggerating, you deserve a few million!
Stumbled across your channel recently. Sick content, keep up the good work ✌️
Cheers man!
I was introduced to super Mario in 2011 and started following him, football, and Man City.
It s a sore sight to see how Super Mario went ahead, but the team has only grown ever since.
Been a follower of Man City over a decade now and boy that's a hurricane 🌀
I started following city because of Aguero Balotelli and Tevez when I first got into football, it hurt like hell to see Aguero go but I love a city have become hopefully we can get our first CL soon 🙏🏽 😂
Wow city fans its quite amazing
This is a top top channel. Just discovered it but it is brilliant
😂😂😂😂 you are quite literally one of the best if not the best content creators on RUclips
Haha, thanks so much! But that is surely Roy Keane.
LOVE THIS CHANNEL
I will definitely share your knowledge to people around me very very impressed
Your vids are so high quality bro! Your gonna be big one day mark my words 😂
I know people criticize us for lots of things but this man Sheikh Monsieur saved the club and that is something that some owners don't care about, just like Abramovich for Chelsea they really were patient and just let the years go by until real success came in, gotta appreciate the effort at least.
I hope people forget about the oil thing like how they forgot Chelsea's one
@@khaledalham4925 Chelsea cannot be classified as a Oil Club
What a great time it was.
Your channel is the best channel on RUclips and are very underrated sadly
This aged like fresh milk
fine wine u mean
quality video as always
Almost 10 years and my eyes still fill with tears of joy when i remember that aguero goal.
Happy retirement legend. Manchester will always love you and will always be your home.
4:55 dayuuuuuuuuuuuum!
Never knew De Gea was immortal
"clubs are not punished for breaking the law - they are punished for beimg found out".
Well that goes for any and every law that has come into existence.
Sven Goran Erickson is an ubiquitous name. Would love to see a vid about him....and how he became this go-to coach.
Can you please do a video about how Spain won 3 title in a row and keep up the great work. I really enjoy your video
Great video..bro
Cheers, brother!
God damn this channel is so good.
do love a gd football iconic video
How the hell does this chanel not have more views?
amazing video bro. well done and the mancity team built something and now they are champions once again and about to make history by winning the champions league as well. wow
Hoping that you do a Leicester City 2015-16 season video soon.
Ur gonna make me throw my phone out of a window because you show the Aguero premier league winning goal against QPR I’m a Man United fan
That goal that sent united to the second division is HILARIOUS 😂😂😂😂😂 made funnier cuz the guy that scored was a united LEGEND lmaooooo que Viva El futbol 😁😁
Indeed kind of compensates for what they would suffer later from own misfortune and rival amazing success😂😂😂
Can't wait to share this!!! Thank you sir for the history lesson
Hey Man! Sick Content! what's your name?
Aguero made history on premier league, Messi on La Liga, Maradona(Napoli) on Serie A Now it's time to make history on ligue 1 on PSG
No one cares about the french farmers league
Great video but please make the video till 2021
Now Manchester City just won the Premier League against Chelsea. They still have an FA Cup Final against Manchester United and a Champions League Final against Inter Milan.
There it is, a Football Iconic video, I just cannot watch
Sincerely a Man United fan
This one had to be done. Can't talk about iconic football without mentioning City these days😅
Unfortunately this is etched in both United and city history can’t do anything about it
@@FootballIconic now make man city 1967/68 season
Mannnnn trust me you gotta do it, I begrudgingly watched the chelsea and united ones 🙃🙃🙃🙃🙃🙃 it was a nice little nostalgia trip of when I started enjoying the game ❤❤
Now that Haaland is on his way to City, this video has aged like fine wine.
Weird that this video showed up in my inbox today
NOW I can watch this video!
Didn't want to go the game with them in my mind.
Hala Chelsea!!!!!!!🔵🦁
Next vid about the Champions Leagues?? 🏆🏆😅😅
@9:47 from Jo down to Glauber, these signings were made before the Sheikh Mansour take over
I tried to look for another video after this one, found out I've watched every video from the past 3 months. Probably time for me to sub.
Great video! Oil money bought the league. Lets see what happens with Newcastle now too.
Aguerooooooo
United don't even need to spend a lot, if there was a compentent DOF, and let's say within 2 years owners inject 200m of pounds, smart DOF would be able to make a team in those 2 years. With sales and buys.
I am a United fan but I hope City can win a Champions League, they deserve after suffering they had when i was growing up in the 90's and most of the noughties too.
You have some sources there at that Balotelli sentence.
The 2012 city will always be iconic for the Aguero moment. However after that:
Centurions
Fourmidables
Treble winners
And might even try a 4peat...
City has dominated the game so far
City will always have an asterisk for me.
I should’ve took the warning at the stop as a sign.
Make more of these videos
Coming right up!
That intro with rio tho... 🤣
We'll ever forget those 30+ years. They weren't so bad and keep us grounded.
ofc mancini helped man city, he helped the italians win the euros now gosh bless
David Silva was incredible.
I am a child of the 90s and I accept your apology for the reminder
Pain.
Bro you always make me laugh when you ask for a like and you always get it
As a guy who joined Man City when in 2011, that Mangala joke in the beginning killed me. He and Fernando were the most overrated players we had all decade.
You have no idea how we love Agüero here in Argentina.
Btw: if you write it Aguero the name would sound Agero. Need the ü.
That Kevin De Bruyne joke 🌚😭😭😭💀😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
RIP Man City 1880 - 2008
how im i just finding this channel 😇
14:54 LOL one can actually appreciate Dzeko face, plastered in anger ! ManCity s own investigation cncluded that Carlos did not re3fuse to play, just to keep warming up.
C.mon city champions league and treble xxx
For a purely football stand point we all have to admit that big clubs like United have heavy influence over the rules created and basically have locked out any other club getting the status they have and share with the big clubs. So this is basically the only way to get to United’s level in the modern game and it’s just nice to an extra team provide competition. Even if the other big clubs are bad at investing the billions they have
Rise of Man C coincided with the slip of the couple of traditional big 4
I love this blue side very much 💙💙💙💙 COME ON CITY
Rip “the slip”… cries in Liverpool tears
Yes
How I wish I could go back to September 2008
How I wish I could go back to 2011/2012
That was actually a really good assist by Balloteli lmfao
There just lottery winners, not a pound of that money was earned by the club, they should enjoy it while it lasts and then go back to the championship where they belong
Pep guardiola first treble at barcelona plsssss
MC really evolved when Pep arrived n settled. It needs a great coach to identify players to blend into a team. Greater to blend them into a juggernaught. Up to club to find the means to find the means to get players. Some clubs have said NO. paradox. If owners are digging into their pockets, why can't they do so? Poor business if Corp wants their name on team, n willing to pay, who is to say no?
New castle is next... but on the Reals though Man U should have better staff abd financial advisors to beat city, Chelsea abd Liverpool season. Or from the point forth
Most teams who have won the league bought it, with the exception of Leicester, all the other clubs were rebuilding, and the stars just aligned for them. A one off, we will not see for decades.
So city have been on that big money wave
Colossal money, my guy. But also incredible strategy and club management
@@FootballIconic true. I'm not sure anyone can really challenge them every year.
@@Trudon its pointless the premier league is the new bundes farmers league .
