Yep
Their wage bill is fucking massive and it must impact their ability to spend

I’ve had the feeling they bought players like Grealish and Phillips just to stop others buying them. This now seems less viable.
Chelsea did that as well. Dont think city spent last summer as under investigation. Grealish aint worth 100m either.
"We made banners City will never see"
Low key Oasis reference too.
Well done, Feyer.
Anyone know who those players are?
Looks like Souness, Lawrenson & Vinnie Jones (2, 3 & 4).
According to the reddit thread: Sjaak Troost, Coen Moulijn, Ben Wijnstekers and Cor Veldhoen. Legendary Feyenoord players during the 60s-70s who turned down big money offers from the likes of Barcelona (in Moulin's case) to stay put with Feyer and compete against those big clubs instead. During Feyenoord's golden era.
Moulijn is to Feyenoord what Cruyff is to Ajax.
The fact they have to reach that far back to find good examples is a sad indictment of humanity.
But I appreciate the slight, nonetheless.

Fucking hilarious. I hate the fact that I really like Slot and that he didn't come to us.
They need to take the -inho out of his name, he's still Savio.
Football has always been cicular, it looked like City had found ways to sustain winning - but clearly not.
The moment I picked him in my initial fantasy league team, his season was over.
There's a lot of things going on that have led to where we are with City. Some of them were absolutely inevitable IMO.
Pep is somewhat like Poch, where his success is built on players doing exactly what he wants, non stop, for 90 minutes game after game, week after week.
To do that, players need to be fit enough and young enough to do it without questioning it.
This current squad isn't overly endowed with those players. Too many of them are 27+ and lack the motivation as well as the youth and fitness.
Ordinarily, he would be able to just recycle the squad as and when players tip over the edge. If they're not 100% committed or not able to perform, they're sold without much fuss.
So the question is, why haven't they done that?
Is it the 115 charges making them pull back on the spending for once?
Is it the departed Txikiwhatshisname that has saddled Pep with wordies like Kalvin Phillips and Nunes that has left them woefully under powered now?
I always saw an end to Pep at City. I had assumed though that he would just let his contract run down and then have a year off. I never saw him signing a 2 year deal in the middle of the crisis.

I want to see this cheating cunt will open up on the Oprah Winfrey Show when the guilty verdicts reign down to complete the circle.........
