Couple of defeats and the solution is to spend more money?

When you missed out on 2 midfield targets in the summer and have not addressed it as your 1st choice is 33 then yep.

Oh and when your 1st choice left back has made 15 appearances in 18 months

Then yeah might have to dip in pal

Jeez, you need to improve the squad that is comfortably the best in the premier league and probably Europe

Why don't you try playing some of these young kids that are coming through. Sancho looks a world beater already, surely you should have been giving him more game time. Isn't Foden meant to be amazing? Only one way to find out.

Cover for fernandinho is the priority for you guys. Whenever i have watched you lot ive always thought delph has done ok. Obviously mendy is first choice and keeps breaking but as far as back ups go you could do worse than delph

Yep let's chuck more cash at it. City clearly have some good youngsters why not try them instead of them being sold.

Pep is a chequebook manager, so wouldn`t surprise me if the spent another £200 million.

City probably need to a left back solution as Mendy is just not going to be reliable enough with his injury record.

And what is your business with how we chose to manage our club?

I fail to see how a couple of defeats is seen as chucking the cheque book at it

Mendy has played 15 times in 18 months so a new left back is needed

Ferna one of the leagues best DMs is the wrong side of 31

That's a bit rich coming from the dippers, just how much did you spend last summer

Could play some on their incredibly talented young players. Doesn't like that option because though because of the plastic club it has become.

Sancho making Pep look a real youth player genius right now too.

We sold a player to provide that money, we dont just go cap in hand to the oil barons who then cook the books to manage it.

We have a huge income, 5th highest in Europe, we generated the most money in this country last season from TV and prize money alone.

Are you suggesting we let it sit in the bank rather than improve the squad?

That huge income is the point, it all comes from dodgy sponsors.

You wanna try selling your ground out.

Dodgy sponsors like Nissan?

You average 2,000 empty seats a game at Anfield, don't pretend you don't.

Which young LB and DM are we supposed to throw into the mix then?

Walker is dreadful at the moment, get Danillo in and give him at least 5 games.


Without Ferna, David Silva and KdB we lack creativity through the middle. Ok, Sane and Sterling were getting plenty of balls into the box yesterday but against 7/8 defenders you need height, Jesus and Sergio are relative midgets.

NDombele at Lyon looks like a natural successor to Fernandinho, pull out all the stops in the Summer.

I'm assuming your U23 and U18 teams have both.

We threw Rashford in when we had injuries. That's what proper football clubs do. You're just a sham state sponsored one though as everyone knows.

Dodgy sponsors like Etihad - owned by sovereign wealth fund that also has links to Man City.

Try selling a key player to fund a squad enhancement.

Selling your best players wins you how many trophies?

That’s called squad management rather than being a chequebook manager.

I’m sure good squad management has been far more successful for long term trophy wins than chequebook management.

For all your spending, you’re below us and we sold Coutinho.

Amazing how well you've done with a squad that cost about £5,000.

Oil money from despots isn’t everything Inky.. happy with the human rights abuses that those despots Garry out in order to preserve their positions of power?

Those abuses that in turn give them carte blanche to do what they like, including spending billions on football clubs that their country could well do with.

Basically buying good PR through the voices of Man City fans because they give them something to cheer.

So starved of any success were you that you don’t mind where the money comes from.

Good show

**despots carry out..

Didn't the Moores Family, the people who bankrolled you for decades, make their money from gambling?

I don't think you get warnings after adverts for petrol appear on TV.
