So you don't think the lad who played the second most games for United last year will make the starting 11?, Lingard tends to start a lot of games (around 50% I think) LB and RB are not certain starters either.
No Gabriel for City?

Like @theevilreddevil said, just choose the most expensive players. Ignore Lingard and Rashford, clearly we have no homegrown British players.

I'm just surprised he didn't try to jam Mata in there ahead of Herrera for the extra £9m...

I'd put our first 11 at about £360m and City's at about £430m

De Gea, Valencia, Bailly, Lindelof, Darmian, Matic, Pogba, Herrera, Mkhitaryan, Rashford, Lukaku.

Ederson, Walker, Stones, Kompany, Mendy, Fernandinho, De Bruyne, Sterling, B. Silva, Jesus, Aguero

That's 22 players who'd all walk into your team, as a side note. <ok>

Agreed with most of that apart from your parting WUM. Not convinced Rashford is starting XI is he?

Arsenal's starting line up is £270m. Provided you jam all their most expensive players in there of course as per the rules of this game <ok>

What could they sell it for though?

Bearing in mind Ozil and Sanchez can negotiate a summer free transfer away from the club in 5 months.

I'd say £240m-£250m

If we say the rules are to pick the most expensive and realistic first XI then go for it. I'm going to look it all up later.

Going off making the most expensive squad of players without square pegs in round holes, I think City beat us by around £30m.

I remember when Chelsea had Roman pumping money into it as if it was going out of fashion and the Sheiks doing the same for City, people said that that's the end of United as potential champions. They were not going to win the title again for decades. yet within that time, United won the title several times. We even had lttle Leicester popping out without any warning.

Money spent NOT= title. City have spent more than United this summer. Do they look like favourites? possibly but for me they are less formidable than the last title winning side of a few years ago. With Aguero, Silva, Toure dominating.

I think City have the potential there to do really well but I'm not sure who my favourites are, I'd have to say Chelsea atm because they have still got Costa and he's the difference maker. Spurs have probably the most settled squad I just think their players might see a lack of ambition this summer as a negative and that could possibly start heads turning.

We have to challenge, we have no excuses to be fighting for 4th this season especially if we fetch Zlatan back into the fold when he's fit.
 
Don't forget that City had the title in the bag up until Christmas last season - even before a ball was kicked last season the pundits had them marked as strong favourites ................ look what happened to that.
