Is Manchester United 1999 team better than Manchester City'S 2019 team?

Image
Premier League's most decorated player Ryan Giggs is overly convinced that he played for a Manchester United team that can compete with Pep Guardiola's incredible Manchester City team. 

Giggs feels the 1999 Manchester United that won the Champions League, the Premier League and the Carling Cup {now called the Caraboa Cup} can rival City. He even went as far as saying United of the past can challenge City to the Premier League.

Pep Guardiola made history by becoming the first and nly manager in Premier League history to win the Premier League title with 100 points and the following season retained it with 98 points. 

Sir Alex Ferguson meanwhile have never won the league with more than 92 points. His highest point tally was in 91 points back in 2008. 

Comparing both teams don't match up. The present Manchester City team is far stronger and more equipped to compete for domestic titles than United were in the past. 

Added to that, City are the first team in Premier League history to win the domestic treble. {The Community Shield, the Caraboa Cup, the FA Cup and the Premier League title}, no other team in history have done it.  

"Would the 1999 team win the league? 100%. It would not be easy, but we would", Giggs told Sky Sports. 

The present Wales manager added: "The City side are fantastic, with a fantastic coach, but that team was something special". 

Giggs is a bit right though, Manchester United of the past would've at least finished in the top 4 and not champions. Pep Guardiola's Manchester City team is very, very strong and to beat them to the league title, a team must not lose more than one game and not draw more than four games.. 

That is almost impossible which goes to prove how strong Manchester City is.

Maurizio Sarri wins the mentality battle: Cristiano Ronaldo is back to his best for Juventus

Muarizio Sarri wanted a statement from Cristiano Ronaldo now he has. Ronaldo has fired Portugal to brink of Euro 2020 qualification after scoring a hat-trick {his 56th career hat-tick} in Portugal's 6-0 win over Lithuania.  The 34-year-old has now scored 98 International goals in 163 games and looks likely to reach a century when Portugal take on Luxembourg on Sunday.  Sarri thought for moment he could be the coach to close the book on Ronaldo, the man who will finally tell Cristiano Ronaldo; 'You're just not good enough and have to sit on the bench or leave'.  But how wrong was he, Ronaldo posses a giant mentality and hates to be told he is not good enough to play or last the entire match.. Against Lithuania, it sparked him back to live and give him another reason to keep fighting and proving to each and everyone who doubted him that he is the best player in the world. Put it this way, Ronaldo's rebirth is good news not just to Portugal but to Juventus and Ma...

Given the choice, i'd rather have my centre-forward to be a goalscorer, so i would have to go with Kane. It's a tough one.  "Son would be fantastic to be able to.. listen, put it this way, no offence to Divock Origi but i would prefer to bring Son on that Divock Origi. I'm not a huge fan of Lucas Moura.  Echoing...
