If you're sensitive avoid the usual City negative baiting by rag agent Simon Stone's have your say on the BBC Danilo news.
In answer to the "City buying more foreigners" post I replied as follows:
"City do their bit for England with Walker, Stones and Sterling playing at the highest level and training with top players not to mention developing England's number1 Joe Hart".
 
So we all know that this is all about click bait and selling papers (not sure what the BBCs doing though!) but does it really matter. The answer has to be a yes:
1. It damages our marketability and potential sponsors = not fulfilling our potential in market place
2. Players less likely to get recognition from peers and pundits= less incentive to play/sign for us = inflated wages and transfer fees
3. Less likely to be picked for international duty ( pick your nose for United - get picked for England!)
These factors must play a part in players choices. So to those who say they don't care about the media bullshit then you should. It matters.

1. Yet we are always enticing investors and sponsors
2. We don't seem to struggle signing players (bar one Summer in 2012), look at our squad!
3. We've had as many players play for their countries while with us than anyone. One game in 2010 we had six City players on the pitch for England at one point in the game: HART, Glen Johnson, Jagielka, LESCOTT, Ashley Cole, Walcott (ADAM JOHNSON 13), Gerrard, BARRY, MILNER, Defoe (Bent 70), Rooney (WRIGHT-PHILLIPS 79)... and since then we've only had the odd England player and they all seem to play (Hart Stones Sterling)
4. Doesn't stop us gaining new fans
5. Doesn't affect my enjoyment or my judgement of the team or the club
6. The rest of the world has their own media so probably bother with our shite very little

We gave them arguably the best televisual moment of there PL coverage, yet were lambasted by them all the time whilst they swallow the rag medicine at every opportunity.

Yet that advert is a fantastic bit of promotion for the club and prolongs United fans suffering, remembering every day they watch it, when the balance of power changed. Typically not noted by certain quarters on here who are busy moaning about inconsequential things to suit their narrative. Of course if we had a united based video.....
