The strength of a team is usually very relative a d that's in the fact thst there are areas where they have got strength and aswell area where there's also to be seen weakness to but them been able to exercise their strength over their weakness isn't a guarantee or enough to see them as the best team and that's why i think it's a perfect idea to make it seasonal probably they could be this season and next it may go to another team because there are team that looks better in some season a d the other they are looking worse than you would have expected of them.
It's not even about the hype, they could be hyped and still win the trophy and still not be Hyped a d still not win so either ways they are only good if they are at the point in time and they should just enjoy it while it lasts, because there was actually a time when they weren't such good but then at this point they are as it's still very possible there will be a time they will beless good at such time they get to improve.
I don't think it's an exaggeration at all, because until now Madrid has left it very vague that they were facing one of the best so far, and it was Manchester City, and in the end that team is a machine and they can't say no, So far he has beaten everyone in his field, I am dying to see the classic tomorrow, because I am sure that things can turn out very well for Madrid, Barcelona is out and many teams have come out that are good, so now If they are being classified as the best in Europe, of course it is not good to feel victorious until they win the League or win the UCL, but I think that if they are on the right path, at least they are above Barcelona and that already means a lot.
The Manchester City Superiority Fallacy—And Carlo’s Genius
This is baloney. Discounting referee errors—or potential intentional errors if you ask Chelsea fans about the 2009 semifinal—the best team always wins. The explanation is simple: The better team scores more and concedes fewer. The detractors’ problem is that their criteria for what constitutes a better team are subjective to their opinions and not the scoreboard. For instance, possession and creating chances are important, but finishing chances and brilliant goalkeeping are not.
