City have spacked an awful lot of money but they haven't really bought that many world class players. Now they have a squad of 25 players of near equal quality.
In DM for example. De Jong, Kompany, Barry, Viera are all of a similarish quality but none of them worldbeaters. Unfortunately Touré destroys my point but it's the same in other positions.
Defenders, none of them are particularly great. They are mostly top 6, yes, but not top 4.
