Danial Levy is a very rich man with a lot of clout behind him, I dont accept they are poor, even if they are they are on the cusp of something big, borrow the money from one of his other ventures, pay the big wages, keep the players, then the stars like Kane wont want to leave..... He will be gone in a couple of seasons too if they dont win him anything.

Surely it is in City's best interests that Spurs don't spend, don't pay big wages and don't compete for the title?

Rose wants out, Alderweireld doesn't want to sign a contract without a buyout...

3/4 of your defence could be gone in 18 months time.

So you're saying that it's possible that, in a year or two, there will be some turnover of personnel? Okay, I can accept that that might be the case.

But that's altogether different from saying that Walker winning a trophy with City will "break" Spurs.
 
Bet Pocho loves it at spurs no pressure what's so ever he has won naff all, Spurs have won naff all for donkeys years! Throw the youngsters in get praised to hell finish 6th he wont be sacked, players got zero pressure! Pocho at Chelsea us or the scum he wouldn't be playing any youth players because these clubs have the pressure and have to win trophies.

Relativity my friend.

We all do it. If someone not as impressive or as experienced as you gets promoted over you, you'd be miffed and feel unappreciated.

Someone else pointing out they can't believe you to feel unappreciated when you actually have a job. How is the homeless fella who has neither a job or home supposed to wrap his head around this.

That's good money, you must be in the high end of the market......I'd consider bending over for that.

One way to look at it, I suppose.

Another would be that it should be easier to blood young players at clubs like Chelsea and City. Two reasons:

1. They can afford to spend (and do spend) far more on their academies (and on young player wages and incentives) than Spurs do. So they can and do attract the very best young players from around the the UK, Europe and the world. If those players are subsequently developed properly, they ought to be plenty good enough to compete for first team places.

2. Since City and Chelsea can also spend far more than Spurs on assembling - and paying wages to - their much stronger first team squads, they ought to be able to accommodate one or two young players among the named 17 for each match without weakening their chances significantly. Especially against teams that they ought to be beating comfortably.

Kinda misses the point I was making.

Even if what you say was true true, it wouldn't preclude City from blooding young players given the strength of first team squad that they can buy and the quality of young players that they can attract. Barcelona are persistently under considerably more pressure to win trophies than City are ever likely to be yet arguably their greatest ever team consisted of two thirds home grown players.

I read your post a manager under pressure will only blood a youth player if he knows he is good enough. Think this season pep will play a few youth players of the bench in the league and maybe a start in the cup.
