Soon enough, they will have to rebuild their squad and that's where the most together and stable clubs step in to take advantage. That's where we have screwed up. Two or three seasons ago, Man Utd, Liverpool and Chelsea were all unstable because they had major players leaving and new managers settling in. We never took advantage of that period even though our squad was the most stable.

Maldini?

This thread as so many others has moved from it's original and interesting topic to the 'lets all whinge at why there is no point doing anything because Man City spend hundreds of millions of pounds' topic.

Even if you think we face an insurmountable object, surely there are things we as a Club can do to improve our lot, unless you think we have become as competitive as possible with no room for improving our:

-management
-coaching
-players
-tactics
-approach to investment
-utilisation of resources
-ownership structure
-competition prioritisation
-salary structure
-star player retention

Or any of another multitude of things we should be considering. Just whinging at other Clubs spending hundreds of millions will get us nowhere and has become drearily repetitive on far too many potentially good topics on this board.

The topic title is "So, how do WE win the league?"

The answer is we can't because of the way City can throw obscene amounts of money around. Even Utd who have the best manager around failed to do so although they came commendably close.

Of course there are things we can do to get closer though.

What is the point?

The discussion should be about what things we can do to improve, challenge, etc. If the simple answer and course of discussion is nope, let's just feel sorry for ourselves, there is no point in having this thread because all that is happening is that the same points are being repeated that have been discussed ad nauseum almost everywhere else.

What is the point of answering the topic title? :unsure:
What is the point of saying what you said, if you're going to go down that road.
None of us can do anything about what's going on in the club or football in general so what's the point about talking about anything?
:shrug:

People are just saying what they think which is what a messageboard is about.

EDIT: Not all the posts are about City's money anyway, quite a few are about things we should be doing different.

No, the thread has turned to utter shit with the same old drivel.

The 'WE' in the title was emphasised indicating it should be about what WE do. If the answer is whinge, well, we're already fucking world class at that.

Alright, stroppy socks. I've replied to your other thread.

No the thread was about how do we actually win it, not neccesarily how we challenge (although they go hand-in-hand). Ernesto already mentioned things for him, look bleak, that suggests that even if we do all the things we can possibly do to improve, there is still a huge roadblock stopping us, somewhere. In fact he posed the question in the context of Manchester City (amongst other clubs) in the first place. To then complain people are also talking about that just seems odd.
