I know that but I just don't see pep and txixi thinking he's worth that can't see them paying more than £50m when we've already lined up a cb for free in the summer.
 
We are more likely to shell out £70m on him than Liverpool. Our balance sheet is better, we don’t have debt, our revenue is higher, we can accommodate the wages, and we don’t have a new stand to pay for.

But apart from that .......................
 
So what is it likely that players will want? To win trophies? Which of the clubs above offers a better opportunity to do that? To play for the best manager in the world? Which of the above clubs have a better one? To challenge themselves by playing Champs League football? Which of the above clubs has a better chance of challenging for that? At least two of them won't even qualify. To improve their bank balance? Will a player earn more elsewhere? To enjoy playing top quality football with a world class squad of players? Which of the above has a better squad? It may well be that VVD wears Kenny Dalgleish underpants and decides to join Liverpool, and good luck to him if he does, but to chastise City fans for pointing out the bleeding abvious that we are now an attractive destination for players misses the fact that we're now a major force and smacks of littlecityitus imo.
Bang on mate.

It smacks of nothing mate. You've made a confident statement & I'm asking you to validate it. It's really simple.... If it's your personal opinion, please save us time and say so. If you have evidence of opposition fans & players saying so, please provide the proof.

I've always thought City was the best place for any player, but so would most fans in respect to their own clubs. This season isn't finished yet & last season we finished 3rd.

As it stands it's 3 years since we've won the league, so please provide the evidence that everyone thinks City are the most attractive proposition for any player....

How much do they still owe Ikea for that stand?
