be a big test for city as to whether they have the hunger and the drive to retain the championship. it's also a big test for united to see if they can claim back the title. it's also a big test for di matteo since people will have taken note. chelsea seem to have spent big. can anyone tell me of major signings city/ united have made because i can't recall which if true i will be amazed at!
Straight fight between City, and Chelsea.
Based solely on the fact of the money they have spent, and will spend, as I don't rate either of their managers as having any real talent.
Unless something mad happens in the next month, this will be the 4th consecutive window that City haven't been the biggest spenders though the media will probably ignore that fact.
United
Chelsea
City
Arsenal
Spurs
Everton
Stoke
Liverpool
That's a lot of tests. It's like being back at school.
Man u.
City
Arsenal
Chelsea
Probably di matteo sacked by febuary/march while were 6 th and out of the cl. New manager will take the reign and we'll finish 4th and win the.f.a. cup.
"...this will be the 4th consecutive window that City haven't been the biggest spenders..."
Boris, you sound like a Chelsea fan.

========================================
Including wages, city must have spent close to, or beyond, 600 million since 2008.

?
I rejoice in spending
Boris
You have a point.
But the Trillion quid (joke) that was spent previously kind of tends to linger in people's minds.
No idea why.
Henry, if we didn't buy anyone in the next 3 windows the media would still call us 'High spending Manchester City' all the time.

"if we didn't buy anyone in the next 3 windows the media would still call us 'High spending Manchester City' all the time."
That's probably because you still would be, I suspect your weekly wage bill is more than anyone else has spent in any transfer window.

======================================
Because that's precisely what you are.
You have no real home grown talent in your team, apart from maybe Joe Hart, and your recent success has been brought about by spending massive amounts of money on transfers, and wages.
1)United
2) Arsenal
3) City
4) Chelsea.
All subject to their activity in the remainder of the transfer window.
1) City
2) United
3) Chelsea
4) Arsenal
1 - City
2 - Everyone else
Dont think anyone can blame city for spending big
To catch Utd & Chelsea thats what they had to do
Dont blame them
Chelsea and utd fans were happy when it was them doing it and in Chelsea`s case, still doing it
if you cant beat them , join them
(U15376)
Micah Richards cost us nothing, Kompany, Clichy and Zabaleta, the bedrock of our defence during the closing stages of the season cost a total of £19m.

Facking hell how deluded are you? You'll never finish above Arsenal let alone United.
1 - Boris

Times are a changing my friend
Utd will struggle with the Glazers putting you in even more debt this yr
City
United
Newcastle
Tottenham
Stoke
That's funny with this debt we've not finished outside of the top 2 and that will not change, I have no idea what makes you think Spurs will even be in the top 3 they have no depth and if you lose Modric and don't replace him you'll make 5th/6th. I can already see some of your fans moaning about the high line, let's see how 19 other teams will make use of that in the league.

======================================
Look, no disrespect, and good luck to city and their fans, but lets not start kidding ourselves that city are in the position they are in, for no other reason, than spending huge sums of money.
Enjoy your success, but dont delude yourself, or try to argue in any way, that it happened due to any other reason, than the wealth your owner bestowed upon your club.
If the Mansour's family dart, had landed in any other part of the league table, that club would more than likely be league champions right now.
