Mancini.
Do you have an obsession with assuming that other fans have an obsession with your teams spending by going on other fans forums to make that correlation and highlighting it on another forum?
You can say what you like about money and City but you can’t deny the quality of Peps coaching.
Only had Grealish a week and he’s turned him from a very good to world class diver ๐
Personally it's not often I comment on City's spending and it doesn't actually bother me that much. I also don't think they are cheating FFP as it stands today due to the things listed in the OP.
But they certainly did break FFP at one stage and certainly were given a quite enormous amount of money which got them into the position where they could win said prize, sponsorship and TV money so the "we don't cheat... anymore" will not really wash with a lot of people.
You'll get no end of people not really respecting City's achievements as a result and that's just how it is.
Bit like watching Justin Gatlin as he got back from his ban. It's just there isn't it.
Its ok OP. Your owners can magic another 200 mil to help you try and win a game๐๐๐๐
Time to open that cheque book again so Pep can prove what a genius he is
City's spending???? Or the UAE's spending???
Why didn't you spend this much before the Sheikh if it's all down to the club?

Stop being mean. They are currently acquiring a new country so they can fund Harry Kane. But put it down to ticket sales๐

The only people wound up by this are City fans with their duplicate articles. And you should know to fact check anything Pep says by now. The 60 million stretches back to last summer, when City also spent well over 100 million in transfers

stop saying facts it will upset them

Hey OP, where u gone man. Come and play๐
FFS mancini, you’re one whiny fecker!
Why do you do this to yourself? any club that’s successful and have spent loads of cash are gonna get the same comments, grow up deal and with it you muppet!
I’ll never understand fans who obsess with net spend. Ultimately, at top clubs, players they’re selling are going because the manager wants them to.
Pep has spent a fortune, it’s not because of him City made £50m from the academy is it?

Sheik invested in club, got them up and running, club now self-sufficient. Not hard to grasp is it? Using multiple question marks, twice, seems you're upset about something.

This. Net spend is a nonsense.
Manchester City’s starting XI today is the most expensive in Premier League history. £550m total. An average of £50m a player.
Ederson 35m
Cancelo 60m - Dias 60m - Ake 40m - Mendy 50
Gundogan 20m - Fernandinho 40m - Grealish 100m
Sterling 60m - Torres 25m - Mahrez 60m
Someone dispute this please?

---------
De Gea- 20 mill
AWB- 50 mill
Maguire- 80 mill
Varane- 40 mill
Shaw- 30 mill
Matic - 40 mill
Fred - 45 mill
Pogba- 90mill
Bruno- 60 mill
Sancho- 75 mill
Martial- 50 mill
= 580 million pounds.
Good chance you will see the above line up from united at some point this year.
I don't know where this idea is coming from that only city spend massively. People focus on them because they actually win the league regularly whilst spending big.

Some Liverpool fans do, as do some fans of other clubs, but personally it's not something i subscribe to.
No-one can tell me selling Benteke for £30m is a bad thing holding us back.

What point are you actually trying to make?
That net spend is irrelevant? That total spend is irrelevant?
So in your mind if club A sells 450 million pounds worth of players, and buys 500 million pounds worth of players. = net spend of 50 million
And club B sells 50 million pounds worth of players, and invests 500 million pounds on players = net spend of 450 million
You're saying net spend doesn't matter, and both clubs are equally spending too much on players, and buying the league/ruining football etc?
OP.. Tell us your ok bab x

Walker 50m - Dias 60m - Stones 50m - Cancelo 60m
KDB 55m - Rodri 60m - Grealish 100m

Could very well lineup like this too. £635m
