    Whatever, man.

    We're talking about Augero type signings and this club won't even bother to pay for guys like Samba and Cahill even though we've just got an extra 7m in for Clichy.

    We still can't compete for the top level of player, i.e. the ones that are well proven to be quality and are at their peak, but there's also still plenty to improve our team that come outside that definition. I guess it's worth remembering that we aren't rich but we aren't too poor either, within a few years we'll have a little more cash to burn but for now we won't be seeing a top guy in unless a top guy goes out.

    I personally, feel that if we're to win anything next season, We'd need to add 2-3 players in their prime at the very highest quality because:

    1) It would convince the stars we have that we're a *big club*

    2) Give aspiring youths some level of quality beyond someone who's only a year or two older (Or not Rosicky, Chamakh)

    4) Have enough quality in the side to seasonably rotate and cover for others to are not in form or fit.

    5) A better fucking bench. In hindsight, Bendtner, Denilson, Eboue and Chamakh aren't exactly the types of players to change the rhythm of a game or even secure a result.

    6) And people forget that +30 goals per season usually kick the shit out of the smaller teams, which we haven't really done since Adebyor left.

    The argument by Wenger that City have distorted the market, therefore it's very difficult to get top quality players as they can always offer more in wages is a nonsense. City are not in for every single quality footballer on the planet. There are limits to squad sizes and on the number of home grown players. There are always "markets" (i.e. players) that are free of any Man City influence.

    Meanwhile in reality, Liverpool spend 60mill on average players worth half as much 3 years ago...


    Which has nothing to do with Chelsea and City dumping £1-2billion into the EPL/Europe that wouldn't have normally have been there.
