I couldn't afford them mate
Just pointing out to Astro that money means **** all. You ended up having to pay big for a CB and Keeper but have dropped lucky with a RB from your academy.
The other CB was a punt that worked out really well for £0 and the LB a shrewd buy before anyone else stepped in.
I am not a great believer in the myth that some mangers coach a player to be better, the team yes but not a player.
Man City have spent over £200m on their academy too.
it means **** all if your as rich as Man Utd or £ity but if you are Brighton then you can't afford to waste £20 million nevermind £70 million
And a beautiful building it is too
You need to get out in the world and see what City's owners are doing for the area and people in it, they are spending hundreds of millions on the community and youth of the area (i was taking the piss about the building/ground), their academy is home to hundreds of kids who are being given a good education and start in life.
Don't go there mate, £35m for Andy Carroll and that was when £35m was a **** lot of money

So Pep was too busy with community work to bother coaching his players?
Pretty sure they have other people to deal with community work, you should know that being a Liverpool supporter.
Like i keep trying to tell you (but FIFA 2018 obviously disagrees), money doesn't play football, players do.
Pep has spent £380m just on his defence since joining City. The free pass given to him by the media is astonishing.

We got Carroll and Suarez after selling Torres and Babel [HASHTAG]#brokeeven[/HASHTAG]

[HASHTAG]#luckedout[/HASHTAG] on three of the five (4 of 6 if you count Gomez). Alright then mate...
Nice, great business
I know which pair I'd rather have (Torres had been **** for over a year by that point)
Bad coaching apparently
Nope, he was crocked and everyone but Abramovich knew it
That's a spectacularly daft statement.I couldn't afford them mate

Just because you can spend a lot and get a turkey doesn't mean money doesn't matter. With enough of it you can keep buying turkeys until you get a...a erm whatever you get that isn't one.
You say astro should get out more, but perhaps you should look a little further than your team's (and ours) privileged position and see how some less favoured clubs feel when they see a billion-pound squad struggling with a couple of injuries.
Take a look a little further down the league. While there's still some beneath you.

Nice deflection. Typical Diego post.
