Which will be our fault....obviously.If Chelsea dont get the next manager right they're fucked, Barca style. Not as bad but they will have to sell to buy.

Yup. How long before Boehly starts blaming arab state owned clubs for increasing prices. Another yank, and they all say the same thing.Which will be our fault....obviously.

...and, more than likely, at a significant loss on each player.If Chelsea dont get the next manager right they're fucked, Barca style. Not as bad but they will have to sell to buy.

What's laughable is his record.
He is a 'good' manager, for clubs like Swansea, and where Brighton were when he was there, with low expectations. He is not good enough for top level clubs. He didn't live up to the hype.
He has time on his side and will find a good club for his level, doubt any top club would now dare go near him though.
You judge him as much as you want on less than one season with a seemingly bizarre transfer policy from what seems like a crap guy in charge.
I could use your standards and show you many a manager that doesn't fit your thinking but It won't get us anywhere.
Bang on even a top level manager would struggle with the scatter brain transfer policy ........... money doesn’t alway buy successYou judge him as much as you want on less than one season with a seemingly bizarre transfer policy from what seems like a crap guy in charge.

Chelsea are a complete disaster, Boehly big bollocks will ruin that club.
Mark had the same owners as Pep in the end, and we had not done what Chelsea has done under Boehly. It’s not the same argument at all.
There’s no comparable situation.
I disagree on this one. For me Boehly's biggest mistake, among his many expensive ones, was hiring a manager out of his depth to deal with a quickly increased squad.

The cost of players is only a tiny part of any recruitment strategy.Spending is the easy bit isnt it. Been saying this for years
It's about getting the right type of player, with the right temperament who is capable of fitting in to a new environment, with a willingness to adapt to the training methods, the staff and be able to get on with their new team mates - all at the RIGHT PRICE. Some of those attributes are a bit of a gamble, but on the whole, City have been VERY good at getting it right. I don't think we've really overspent on anyone in recent years, except perhaps he who should not be named (currently not in the squad, and never likely to be again). Cancelo came at a good price, but appears to be lacking when it comes to temperament.
The Chav's on the other hand have been the epitome of 'splash the cash', which doesn't appear to be working out too well for them right now.
