It'll only get mentioned on BM, but I think it might have a little more to do with what's going into his pocket. We can't say 'money' 'cos City, since 2008, is the only club ever to have had any!

And of course the Premier League's fixture computer, which they claim is random, purely coincidentally always managed to have the Sky 4 all play each other on the same day.

I bet they didn't think the Premier League was poor when Liverpool ran away with the title last season or when the rags won 13 of the first 21 titles.

Just listening back to the Monday night club on 5 live - which was a bit hard to find this week as it was the Wednesday night club.
Plenty of praise for City (it was recorded during the build up to the Everton match and the first half), but Borey Rory couldn’t resist a dig about saying yes Pep has done well, but he has done so with a huge budget. To his credit Chapman came back at him and said haven’t other clubs like liverpool and united spent a lot of money too, couldn’t they also have spend the same money we did to buy Dias for example? His only reply was that, er, ok, that’s true, but what City have is the ability to establish better squad depth - quoting Ake for example, which when he presumably knows nothing about why he is absent, was out of order.
It was an exchange which showed up what we already know I suppose; liverpool fan smith couldn’t leave his club allegiance behind fully, just couldn’t allow himself to give unalloyed praise to City, whereas united fan Chapman could be fair and give credit without the snide ‘yes, but..’ comments tacked on to the end.
One a proper journalist, the other a fanboy pretending he’s a proper journalist.

They never explain how City's "massive" spending made United lose to Sheffield United or Liverpool to Burnley and Brighton.

Would Pep Guardiola’s methods work with inferior players? Mikel Arteta is finding out
Guardiola’s success has meant he has never had to work with squads who aren’t at the very top level. Arteta is trying to implement those same principles a step down
