We spent 65 mill

Sold about 30 mill

got in 6 players

I won’t mention the league table

Its not what you do but the way that you do it guise
Look at that, reinvesting profits ffrom player sales...

Bit diff to having a blank cheque init.

We know bruv.

Throwing money on its own won't work nowadays like it did a decade+ ago so if CFC do succeed, that won't be the reason.

You've got a decent squad tbf. A good mix of youth and experience. Average age of your squad 26. And there are at least 4 good signings made this summer, one of them on a free.
Roman said that we would have to be wise on transfers and balance the books. Yeah he splashed out originally but not so much now.
 
When it comes to spending and wages etc then Arsenal and United are the 2 clubs people should look at as to how not to do business

Worked for City til we came up.

So nah
 
Basically what you're saying is it's open as fck <laugh>

I was listening to Rene Meulensteen earlier speaking about United, but what he said pretty much applies to any of the teams you've mentioned. Whoever is there or thereabouts come March, it will be the side which shows consistency (something lacking with quite a few at the moment in this weird covid infected fanless season) that will win it. I hate to say it but I think that's already showing itself to be Liverpool.

I don't think City have the squad to btw. I said it in the summer, the spine of that team has been ripped out and they lack depth. They won't be winning the league.

They will if they're five or six points ahead in March, that's my point. It they're not, it's wide open then.
 
Not really bro, their best players were already there. Mekon at the back, Fernandango, Aguero, Silva. They just added to that. Without them now they're fcked.
So you're saying peps a fraud, and nothing without city's endless funding of the team?

You make a decent point there

Pep’s recruitment is probably the worst of all the top managers

he’s ****

the core of that City team was built by Mancini/Pellegrini...they are still the Alpha players at that club until age catches up...Pep can’t build a team

Thrown 400 mill at the fullback position alone

Barca he was gifted the most talented squad anyone could be gifted ever

He did however improve Sterling
