Sent Otamendi the other way, then.
They aren’t interested cos of his high wages apparently, but surely we can sort something for that.

Yep ,we really do struggle to move our fringe players onCity's problem is that we pay too much for our squad players, making them tough to shift when we need upgrades.
No one will pay what he's getting. We could always offer to pay a portion of his wage and have done with it.They aren’t interested cos of his high wages apparently, but surely we can sort something for that.
Rags have the exact same problem. Only worse.Yep ,we really do struggle to move our fringe players on
This is a City exclusive problem, because usually other clubs give their promising youth some squad spots.City's problem is that we pay too much for our squad players, making them tough to shift when we need upgrades.
We are the only club in world with pressure to win trophies and hence can't promote or give youth a chanceThis is a City exclusive problem, because usually other clubs give their promising youth some squad spots.
I think you need to buy for depth, no arguing that, but our problem looks worse than it is because we do it all the time.
There is a reason PSG for example doens't have this problem, they promote promising youth and they stay, and become starters or depth.
You see it at Barca, Real etc as well.
Just so people don't get on my back, YES we do have to buy depth, but not ALL the time, give the youth a couple backup slots.
You know that's bullshit lol.We are the only club in world with pressure to win trophies and hence can't promote or give youth a chance
