carmine Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 (edited) See City with all their financial restraints just whacked in a cheeky 60m bid for Mahrez after a world record fee for a defender!! Maybe i'm just clouded. OK, i will acknowledge City have certain restraints........but heres da ting....... their disposable transfer budget is just significantly larger than the rest, bar of course United and the Chavs. Oh yes, and guess who's 1, 2 3 in the league right now?

Hopefully, others will read and digest. The bit on Arsenal is bang on. IF they don't hurry up and strengthen, the rules won't enable them to and could end up a mid-table team for years to come. At least that'll cheer up the Spurs fans Who wrote that piece of comic fantasy, your owner? Its nought more than an amusing opinion of a situation thats totally based on putting the super rich in a better light and i doubt will fool anyone bars supporters of those respected clubs. Very informative if you're a fan of the newly super rich and the biggest loads of <deleted> ever read if not.

By chance? I read City put a bid in of 50m and Mahrez has put in a transfer request in to join us. Think we can all agree he's worth 50m and a bit more. Who's this defender ("after a world record fee for a defender!!")? If you are referring to Aymeric Laporte from Athletic Bilbao that was for a CLUB record fee of £57m (The club's previous record fee was the £55m paid for Kevin de Bruyne in 2015). Think you'll find 'Liverpool signed Virgil van Dijk from Southampton after agreeing a fee of £75m for the Holland international – a world record for a defender.' Quality post that 555!

We've never denied having big money to spend but it is also linked to our turnover, which has increased significantly due to the investment in the players paying off.

Bredbury Blue Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 Jesus, tiring repeating myself on here. I've continually be saying that generally the top teams in the Premier/old Division 1who are successful earn the most and therefore spend the most. If you go back to the decade (s) of ManU recent success, for example, they were spending big, breaking transfer records; the other top teams of Liverpool, Arsenal, etc, too. So there's nothing new going on now, the top teams - ManU, Chelsea, Liverpool, Arsenal and City - spend bigger than the other teams. What is different is that it pisses off 2 Spurs fans on here that City are involved 555 ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lets hope there was someone handy with a tissue to wipe the tears away as he signed Laporte for 57m on his limited budget. Dragging out a quote from 8 years ago thats factually correct is scrapping the barrel is it? Whats quite unbelievable is him coming out with such a load of gut wrenching sanctimonious crap in the first place. All he did was set himself up, so don't shoot the messenger. I'd have thought ending up with a line of "theres no advantage, get over it" was more a case of scrapping the barrel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well 8 years ago 50mil was a lot of money and I doubt ANY Manager would have foreseen the money that exchanges hands nowadays. BTW. He still actually thinks that way. He would much rather bring youth through but the pressures of winning trophy's and the lack of good competition restrains this. He's only been with us 18 months and already made changes to how our youth develop. I posted an article on the City thread on why Pep is sending our promising youth to Girona, where they will get exposure to playing against men and in front of big crowds. This is much better than playing against other kids in empty stadiums. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
