Why are we wanting City to get charged? Aren’t they one of our allies in terms of showing how ridiculous FFP is? If they get off scott-free then that opens up the door for our owners to inflate our commercial deals (should they want to) and go ape in the transfer market.

Oh I’m all for them winning to bloody the PL and Cartel even more. But the baked in construct of the Cartel rules is what pisses you off.

Yup. Let them get it and then challenge it legally and bring the house down.

Real in for Huijsen.

 

:lol: his agent has been desperately getting them to sign him for ages.

 

Definitely giving Fab Romano money to promote his client

I couldn’t care about City charges being nothing if they keep spending the amounts they are on the players they have so far. They’re assembling a VERY average squad. 


Well even they can’t go out and buy an elite ready made team anymore. Imagine De Bruyne, Silva, Aguero in the current market 150m each. 
 

They got to gamble like the rest of us.

But like... they actually can. 

 

I don't know why they don't want to sign top ballers like they used too. PSG have the team City should.  Kvara, Doue, Joao Neves - lots of money but not obscene that Man City haven't spent.

 

They are going to spend Joao Neves money and more on Morgan Gibbs-White.

 

It's horrible scouting.

All these transfers City, Liverpool are looking to do along with Arsenal is all a bit disheartening imo. They have the power and financial muscle to pay the big wages.  Feels like it’s going to get harder and harder to stay up there

Even if all of them plus Chelsea and Manchester Utd buy 5 of the best players on the market each, that’s 25 players across the planet. We’ve got to hope between our scouts, Howe and our owners we can still land plenty of decent talent. Botman and Tonali weren’t at the top of their lists and Isak and Bruno we got in front of Arsenal to get. I’m not going to get disheartened before the window even opens, we still haven’t had UCL confirmed so cannot act officially anyhow

You are absolutely right.  Would like us to make an early move

I would love us to do business early so all signings have the majority of pre season to get to know squad and to get Howe fit, so we can hit the road from the onset next season.

I guess, but this has basically been the case forever and we’re just about to finish 3rd or even 2nd. So yeah it’s not fair but we are able to compete at the top level.

Guehi to Chelsea…

 

Fofana (seen as key man), Colwill, Chalobah.... They bought Tosin and he's still on the bench with Fofana injured.

 

This is a warning for anyone like Guehi wanting to play for England, given that Hall and Tino (and now Burn) are in the England squad from getting on the pitch and impressing. Fair dos if Guehi wants to stay in London, but not the safest of career moves.

Why you need a good scouting system. I maintain from the FFP thread, we don’t need to have their levels of spending to challenge for league and win, if we have spurs level that’s more than enough. Beyond that, it’s just overspending for the sake of it.
 

There’s plenty of good quality players out there, just need to find them with a patient approach and have a top manager.

Chelsea have a buy back/sell on option though. Think they want to move on Chalobah.
