It isn't about the money, it's about getting good enough players, the best players available. Unless they're out of contract that usually means high prices. We won't be able to compete successfully to win the CL unless we sign better players now we've lost most of our legends to age.

No I don’t think he was, but if I was a betting man which I am, I think we will win it this year.Nobody, but I would imagine Guardiola was brought in to do that.

Can't see it. Last season was our chance, then Pep over-pepped things in arguably the easiest 1/4 final we could have had.No I don’t think he was, but if I was a betting man which I am, I think we will win it this year.

Don’t you think we have the team to win it this season, with everyone fit ?It isn't about the money, it's about getting good enough players, the best players available.

Is that a change from 2 years ago ? 3, 5 10 ? Been the case for a very long time, though it’s never meant you can’t get players that become top players. Just as top teams never have top players in every position.then we will not progress sadly. The game has changed so much. If you want top players then you have to pay for them now
Look at Liverpools front 3 none came as top players and I would still have Jesus over Fiminho. Was Gnabry on anyones wish list when he went to Bayern.

Or have better talent identification, recruitment and a coach who can develop the gems you discover.
Looking at Dortmund with Haaland, Gio Reyna - who was a part of a CFG club for years ffs - our management can only see a player when they’re In the £50+ bracket; our owners are having their pants pulled down by the three amigos.
I hope I’m way off the mark aswell mateI desperately hope you are wrong, or we'll end up competing with teams like Spurs and Arse for 4th place at best.
Rubbish.We had already equally talented players in the academy already.Or have better talent identification, recruitment and a coach who can develop the gems you discover.

No, unfortunately not. We just don't have that drive and energy in midfield. Or a proper left back. Or any luck with var.

Not much in it to be honest.
Convinced you’re the biggest WUM on this site.
We wont go for him because:
1.) he is too expensive for us and we prefer to spend same amount divided on two players who wont be good enough for improving the starting eleven
2.) the pride we have as we are scared to deal with Raiola
One thing is sure, he wont be at Dortmund too long, can see Bayern going for him and replacing Lewandowski for next 7-8 years with him scoring 25 every season in league and many more in cups...
Also I hope does not end up at one of our PL rivals.

You’re blind then. You seem not to rate any hot prospects playing at other clubs. If you was the City manager, would you opt out signing Haaland to start Delap?

Serious question Ray, why do you think that Haaland is overhyped when he scores consistently for one of Germany’s top 3
Same with Werner the rest of their game needs work and would take to time to develop. Its not just about scoring goals.Serious question Ray, why do you think that Haaland is overhyped when he scores consistently for one of Germany’s top 3
