You do realise that Arsenal have got to the top of the league doing that?

If top players can mess it up doing it; what hope is there for the mere mortals of League One? The one from Arsenal may just cost them the league title.

Leeds next 3 games:

Fulham (A), Leicester (H) and Bournemouth (A).

They will be bang in trouble if they go through that lot winless considering their final four games.

We’re entering a period where the bottom teams are playing each other.

Leicester play Wolves (H), Leeds (A) and Everton (H) in their next three.

Bournemouth play West Ham (H), Southampton (A) and Leeds (H).

It’s already looking like it’s 4 teams battling it out to join Southampton. I think after the next 3 games one of those will pull clear leaving it 3 teams for 2 positions.

I might be late to the party but this investigation by The Athletic seems to expose the fact that the British Government put pressure on the Premier League to accept the Saudis bid for Newcastle regardless

City have featured more English internationals than any other side.

People just want to pick a fault with them.

Nottingham Forest spent more money than City this season.

Chelsea spent more in this season than City have for the past 5 years combined.

Man Utd and Chelsea both have greater spend and higher wage bills.

If City were 5th would anybody care? Answer is no. It’s because they are so good, people have to find a negative reason behind it.

They can’t accept they have a brilliant manager, brilliant coaching staff, brilliant infrastructure, brilliant scouting and brilliant recruitment.

Anybody could have signed Julian Alvarez. While City were signing Bernardo Silva, Man Utd were spending £80m on Lukaku, Barca £130m on Dembele, Real Madrid £100m on Hazard. That isn’t City’s fault.

Man city have spent over 700 million in the past 5 years .  Add another 317 million the previous year to tip it over a billion in 6.

Bris may have been talking about net spend?

22/23 - £11m profit (Sterling, Jesus, Zinchenko, Porro, Itakura, Muric, Rosa vs Haaland, Phillips, Akanji, Gomez, Perrone)
21/22 - £40m net (Torres, Angelino, Harrison, Nmecha vs Grealish, Alvarez)
20/21 - £95m net (Sane, Otamendi vs Dia, Ake, Torres, Bustos, Rosa, Couo, Kabore)
19/20 - £83m net (Danilo, Luiz, Delph, Garcia, Mari vs Rodri, Cancelo, Angelino, Porro, Steffen, Meshino)
18/19 - £18m net (Diaz, Gunn, Denayer, Maffeo, Hart, Celina, Kayode vs Mahrez, Palaversa, Sandler, Itakura, Arzani)

£225m total over 5 years (£45m average)

Check what they have sold.

City are in an amazing position because their recruitment is so good and Pep Guardiola improves players.

Sterling doesn’t even look England international standard now.

With what City have on their books, they could easily recoup over £100m just from the sale of a few squad players.
