This. ManUre and Citeh’s squads have both cost in the £700m’s, the most expensive in the world. Yet ManC win far more often, score far more, are nicer on the eye and are outclassing ManUre in the PL.
Arsenal should be clear favourites to beat us, they simply have far better players, on paper. Being twice outclassed by Citeh doesn’t necessarily improve our chances. I’ll be as glad as anyone if we get a point or 3, but they are classy opposition.
The squads cost a similar amount and who could argue that City have got better value? Running away with the league, no revolving door of expensive misfits being sold on, and no politicking against certain players through the media.
Very true. A wage rise from £75k to 200k a week will eventually entice a few. They might stay a season to play in the new stadium, before the cheque book clubs pounce.
Real, ManUre, Bayern, Chelski and PSG have been buying trophies for many years, Citeh simply joined the club. All invariably outgun the other clubs in their home leagues on fees and wages.
That’s why the likes of Spurs and Liverpool can never quite match them to get their hands on silverware...
