"Sure, City have recruited well. But they’ve missed on some names, it just hasn’t mattered."

This to me is the biggest frustration. Arsenal have the money to build a good team, but they have to nail every purchase or it becomes a huge liability (see Pepe). If City make a mistake in the transfer market, they just shrug and go again.

It does seem like Newcastle is taking a more measured approach and isn’t spraying cash around. Chelsea have shown that just buying a bunch of good players isn’t enough. Having Pep really takes City to the next level. I hope City wins the Champions League this year as it may get Pep to look for a new challenge. If that happens, I think City is gettable, even without sanctions.
