Fernandinho of Shaktar Donetsk bought at 36m in 2013, that immediately Fraudiola joined City, he was hailing?

The same Fernandinho that won Epl before Fraudiola came? grin

Did Matic not win the EPL before joining Man Utd? Did Man Utd not sign Matic for 40M?

How old was Matic when he was bought he Is 3yrs younger than Fernandinho and both of them have their limitations its left to the coach to maximize their ability

If you want to go by spending Man utd have spent as much as City in recent times yet their players look lost on the field

See Pogba see Maguire see Lukaku before he left. See Sancho see VdB see Martial of all your big money signings in the last 6yrs only Bruno looks good. Compare that to other teams

City have been spending mind-boggling amounts of money before even Pep arrived.

And Pep’s arrival only accelerated the spending.

No one in the history of football has spent 400m on defenders in 2 years.

Pep did.

No one in the history of football has spent $1bn on their squad in less than a decade.

Pep did.

No one in the history of football has enjoyed the privilege of a blank Cheque that Pep Guardiola enjoys at City.

Pep is good no doubt, but without lots of quality players he’s going to struggle.

Ronaldo is 36 years old.

Wayne Rooney is 36 years old.

Which of the two is still playing in a top league today?

Which one of them left top flight football 5 years ago?

It’s not about age chief.

Younger doesn’t mean better.

There’s no way you’ll pick this Matic over Fernandinho.


You wont pick them because they didnt have a coach to work on them. Will you pick AWB Lindelof Maguire Bailly Shaw, Pogba, Fred Martial DvB etc all the other players in Man Utd over their rivals elsewhere?

Is it possible that all these big money buys are all just bad once they wear Man Utds shirt? If these players were under Pep you will be talking differently about them

Its like a 2 married men, One takes care and spend on his wife she is looking gogeous and the other neglects his wife and she is looking tattered. Mr B is now looking with jealousy at Mr A's wife forgetting that if only he had groomed his own wife like Mr A, they will be at par

Players like Bernardo Cancelo Mahrez, Ferran, Gundogan etc were all laughed at as flops in their first season under Pep.

At Liverpool same with Players like Fabinho Thiago,

After the coaches worked on them Now they are the ones we are calling success and looking at with envy

While those have gotten significantly better, the likes of Maguire Matic, Martial Pogba AWB Lindelof have gotten worse

Thank you.

Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has spent at least £100million more than the club's Premier League title rivals despite the quality of performances nose-diving.

United have spent over £100m more than rivals Manchester City, who have splashed out £199.6m during the same period - and have two Premier League titles to show for it.

Wat does it matter if Pep spends on defenders and Man Utd spend on midfielders? What point is that actually? Lets se the total spend from both sides cos I am not really a fan of net spend which even shows Man utd spent more

No these are false

Since Pep joined lets compare how much Man Utd has spent and how much City has spent


2016/17
Man City $236M
Man Utd $203M

2017/18
Man City $349
Man Utd $218

2018/19
Man City $86M
Man Utd $90M

2019/20
Man City $175M
Man Utd $258M

2020/21
Man City $92M
Man Utd $183M

2021/22
Man City $140M
Man Utd $154M

Total

Man City $1,078
Man Utd $1,106


Source Transfermarkt

From the above we have seen that Man Utd has spent over 1billion just like Man City. We can also see that Man Utd has outspent Man City
We can also see the league table the gulf between both sides

Man Utd spent more than City yet their result is inferior

This is a disingenuous use of figures. That's if the figures are accurate.
2 major skewed factors are; different players spent for different managers and 2, differences in board signing and manager signing.

It's very possible that transfers like that of Ronaldo, Pogba, Lukaku were board signings. I'm sure of the latter two because Mourinho has publicly stated his despise for riola and almost never signed players from him throughout his managerial career.

So again, first point, that money was spread across 3 different managers, and you know that once a new manager comes, he wants to sign players that fit into his style of play.

Second point, difference in manager and board signing. Man-u is a club that signs players not just for managerial preference but commercial preference also. Sometimes this has led to an incompatibility between player and manager, unlike mancity that started signing players for Guardiola even before he arrived and never signed against his will.

I gave you numbers, I gave you the source, you are still asking if the figures are accurate. Is it not for you to check and point to which one is not correct?

Can yu also point out the board vs Manager signing in Man City? or is it only Man Utd that has this?

It is also possible that all the signings Man city made in the last 6yrs were board signings and Pep did not make any

Look at this one.

You thought I was talking about a club.

If that was the case, all teams in the top 6 has spent that much on their squad. Or very close to it.

And you chose a period that suits your narrative.

Since that statement was hard for you to understand, let me rephrase it.

No manager in the history of football has spent $1bn on their squad.

Oya get back to work.

How did the period suit my narrative? I picked from the date Pep joined the league. So what period suits your own narrative? 20yrs when Pep was still a player, 10yrs when pep was still coaching Barcelona, 6yrs when Pep joined City or 1 year?

If you want us to look at since Rangnick joined we can also do that

Pick the period and seasons you want us to compare Man Utd vs Man City transfer spendings
