The Lisbon lions spring to mind as an exception, but generally you are correct.There hasn't been a successful football club in world football history, that hasn't bought its success.

You are forgetting Alf Common.Yes, absolutely disgusting that City should offer another club money in return for one of their players, and then if the other club chooses to accept it, and the players himself wants to come to City, then it happens.
Football never worked in this despicable way until City came along.
Next he'll be saying that they'll be getting a £300 million player for £150 million.Haaland to rags next year. Solhekol just worked it out so it must be true
Inflatable banana's , jumpers for goal posts........................Look North! are we back in the 80's? Was Frank Bough on?
World Cup? With Southgate in charge?If the Grealish and Kane transfers go through, City will be able to field a forward lineup that is essentially the national teams best players.
If they went on to win a league title/champions league then a world cup. that would be the holy grail of PR/Legacy.
Makes what city is attempting even more noble. Despite Southgate being in charge, it will be City that lead the way.World Cup? With Southgate in charge?
Or with any other player that signs for anyone besides usI've seen the grealish fee with the five years wages added( as always with our transfers) not yet seen it in euro's
LOL, yes, the guy that got us to the semi of the wc previously, then the final of the euros.World Cup? With Southgate in charge?
That's different - that would be classed as natural and organic investment as opposed to our outrageous and lavish splurging.Why all the outrage?
We're only doing what Roy Keane told United to do

Roy Keane: Manchester United must target Harry Kane and Jack Grealish to mount Premier League title challenge
Roy Keane has called on Manchester United to spend whatever it takes to sign Harry Kane while Sky Sports pundit claims Jack Grealish is the special player needed to help turn his former club into Premier League championswww.skysports.com
Maybe these wankers could do a graphic of money spent versus trophies won, or prize money won, or club value increase and compare to others in the Pep era........or would that show us in a positive light.Waiting on the mainstream media to go with this £918M spent in Peps time bullshit that the clickbaiters like Goal.com are peddling.
City the only club where youth team purchases are added to 1st team transfer totals
I try hard to keep up with it all.. but I get a bit mixed up while sitting at the back doing raffia..That's different - that would be classed as natural and organic investment as opposed to our outrageous and lavish splurging.
Do keep up at the back...........
Or that City saw what Southgate was doing and stole his players and their teamwork ethic.Makes what city is attempting even more noble. Despite Southgate being in charge, it will be City that lead the way.
Another Pep “sabbatical” while he wins the World Cup with City players. Wouldn’t need any time off.Or that City saw what Southgate was doing and stole his players and their teamwork ethic.
LOL, yes, the guy that got us to the semi of the wc previously, then the final of the euros.
A career in the world's sporting media awaits........... ;-)I try hard to keep up with it all.. but I get a bit mixed up while sitting at the back doing raffia..
So, let me see if I can get this right.. United, Liverpool, Arsenal etc spend and that's ok, 'organic' and so on?; we spend, that's a capital offence?
Seems about right to me, fair dos and all that..
Another media dickhead, this one a Spurs fan from Sky sports, playing the “City fans are touchy” card after being called out for his
‘Ruining football’ narrative
