well in that case, manchester uinted has also paid around 17 million each for anderson, hargreaves, nani and carrick and all these players were signed in 2006-2007.

Carrick, Nani and Hargreaves were worth the amount we paid. I dont expect you to be watching United matches, but Carrick has been top class in many seasons since he signed. Nani has been exceptional and has always been in the top of the charts for assists. Hargreaves(although his presence in the 07-08 campaign was immense, with vital perfromances against Arsenal and in UCL KO phase) case is a sad one, if not for the injury, him along with Fletchinho(suspended for the final for a 100% legit tackle on Fabregas) would've made the diff against the Barca in 08-09

Just like Carrick said all of them were worth it.

Hargreaves was pivotal in our CL winin 07/08.

Nani with his great assists last season.

Carrick has been great throughout.

Anderson - well everyone f**ks up sometimes

But you're not getting the point.
We are just saying that the article which was linked to on the last page was absolutely biased against United saying that we've won titles like City is trying to.

@Nani has been quite consistent since his debut season. Its just that everyone expects him to be like Ronaldo(THE best player of this gen).

yea he has but last season he was one of the major reasons why we won the title .

Question: Why is buying better players bad?



honest question, unethical maybe but in the end everyone is playing for the win.

I'm not saying that at all rom.
I'm only saying that comparing the way United won all the titles and the way City is trying to, is not right.


I don't care that they buy all 25 players at ridiculous wages. They got the dough from their Abbas in UAE so they splurge. Just don't say that we won titles the same way. We have always spent money that we've earned.

We develop teams, City buys whole teams.

yea & both of you want to win.
I get where you are coming from but you guys need to relax. If you know & believe in your club & trust it's policies they you need to lay back the defending & let City fans enjoy their City moment of success.
Also buying teams/players is just a very short aspect of the game, I don 't mind that much.


Like we say in fgc, in the end it''s all about that Paypah.

How the transfer market goes has a very very big impact on the team.

Real spent 80m on ronaldo but you won't see me complaining. United fans need to wipe their tears and accept 2nd/3rd place for the next few seasons.

Ronaldo at 80m is a steal deal .. FACT

Their is a difference in real and city.

So Who Do Think will win the wpoty ?

I think it will depend on euro or first half of the season but i think Ronaldo might edge it this time around. Wont be surprised if messi wins either.

But this article dose not mention the fact we were bringing through our youth players at that time(giggs,Scholes,becks,butt and the Nevill brothers) and that all big teams spend money but they don't buy entire new squad like city. And that we bought rio,veron n Rooney fr 30+mil is cause we earned that money.
N we have the most expensive keeper and expensive teenager is because of teams like city who have inflated the transfer market.

you tokin about de gea?

Chelsea, Real Madrid, PSG, Anzhi.

That is the state of football these days, you have to spend shitload of money to attract big players and win titles.

yea, judge a players worth by one game.

by ur logic, drogba is a failure just because of that silly rush of blood moment in 07-08 final.

edit : posted from mobile and back on PC now and noticed that there is another bold part where you mentioned Carrick to be inconsistent regularly. no point discussing with someone that doesnt watch United matches regularly.

Don't like city winning it. Thought it was hilarious how much money they had spent and how little return they had gotten up to this point. Hate the idea that some rich oil barons can come in and spend endless amounts of money to create a new contender out of nowhere, because they like the idea of having a football club for a play thing. Hated it when Abramovich did it and I hate now. It's so random - it just happened to be Manchester City because their owner, who had already been pumping loads of money into them, was being tried for corruption and was forced to sell. Yes, United also spend loads of money, but they generate as much. Hell, they probably would be able to spend more if their owners weren't in the red. Financial fair play should be sacrosanct throughout football - how much your club generates is how much you get to spend. The more clubs are taken over by billionaires, the less chance for others clubs to challenge. Just look at Germany - Bayern earn more revenue than half the other clubs combined. And yet, another team, having recently been driven to the brink of bankruptcy, decide to focus on youth and moneyball transfers, get a brilliant manager in, and return to dominance! Now that is brilliant, because they've earned it on their own.

[The White Pele]

Funnies part is city is still leading only by GD.










Mancini is one crap manager,he should go if city has to reach somewhere.
