Hey @grok, honest answer, no bias. Based on football analysis on X, rank these five fanbases from the highest football IQ to the lowest.
Mancity
Chelsea
Arsenal
Liverpool
ManUnited
I already know one particular fanbase won't be happy with the answer. Let's see what the facts say.

🚨🚨🎙 Alex Crook on Mauricio Pochettino:
“This is an appointment Manchester United should have made in the past.
I was advocating for him when he was down to the final two with Erik ten Hag in 2022, and they went with Ten Hag. It’s the job he’s always wanted.
He’s a players’ manager who improves players look at what he got out of Dele Alli, Luke Shaw and others. Players love working with him.”
Manchester United are in the relegation zone and still refusing to call Sam Allardyce. Pride is going to drag them to Championship football. Enjoy Poch 👋😂

I'm not even a Manchester United fan, but admin, this is incomplete without Cunha and Amad's dance 🤣

I genuinely can't stop laughing at how Arsenal fans have convinced themselves that a world-class player like Doku would downgrade from Manchester City to Arsenal. The level of delusion is unreal.

🚨🚨| NEW: Mauricio Pochettino is increasingly expected to take charge of Manchester United for the trip to Liverpool next Sunday if the club decide to make a change.
Talks are understood to be close to completion. @MKeegan_Overlap

He once went a whole year without scoring a single goal.
He has less UCL goals than Timo Werner, Bukayo Saka and Rodrygo with 10.
He has less goals in a single season than Ollie Watkins, Marcus Rashford, Gabriel Jesus and Tammy Abraham.
He went to Real Madrid on a club record fee and scored 7 goals in 4 years.
Yet Chelsea fans put him on the same level as Salah, Neymar and Ronaldo when he's not even better than Mahrez.
It’s a real shame that Ait-Nouri will be leaving Manchester City in January.
You’ve got to look at the club for bringing in someone who doesn’t maintain the tactical continuity Pep had with his full-backs last season.
Surely they were aware that Maresca uses inverted full-backs and centre-backs, but they still chose him as Pep’s successor.

🚨 BREAKING: Elon Musk has responded to Gina Hinojosa’s apology following their recent public disagreement over his businesses and investments in Texas.
His two-word response: “MESSAGE RECEIVED.” The brief reply has sparked speculation that tensions between the billionaire and Texas’ incoming governor may finally be cooling.
Gina Hinojosa is now expected to focus on her plans to tackle the cost of living, strengthen public education and improve healthcare access across Texas. (Source @jimmieX07)

🚨Breaking: Mauricio Pochettino out, Michael Carrick in? Manchester United’s managerial plans take a major twist!
Manchester United’s hierarchy are reportedly having second thoughts about dismissing Michael Carrick following two major developments.
First, despite the players being booed after the Bournemouth game, supporters continued singing Carrick’s name, showing their backing for both the manager and his team.
Then came the dramatic comeback against Aston Villa. United fought back from two goals down TWICE to grab a last-minute equaliser, with the players showing incredible fighting spirit and determination to fight for their manager.
These developments have reportedly changed the owners’ thinking. They are now convinced Carrick deserves to remain in charge, with a permanent appointment looking increasingly likely.
The proposed appointment of Mauricio Pochettino is reportedly now out of the equation.
Carrick might have just won himself more time at Old Trafford.
This whole Elliot Anderson as a No. 6 nonsense actually started with Thomas Tuchel. How are you able to misprofile a player who developed as a central/attacking mid into a DM? How do you waste this much attacking talent by playing him in front of the defence?
Manchester City wingers’ goals this season:
2 – Semenyo
1 – Doku
1 – Allan
0 – Ndiaye
This isn’t just a finishing issue. Maresca has them pinned high and wide, so they often have to beat 3-4 players before they even reach a dangerous area. Until the structure changes, the wide players will continue to struggle.
