390 Million GBPs on defenders alone! Obscene!

i am still scratching my head about the signing of Ake. They made the same error going with Stones. There are better solid centre backs in the same county. They should have gone for James Tarkowski.
 
I read something regarding the type of defender PG likes.

I can't remember 100% what it said, but it was something along the lines of, he buys defenders who defend with the ball not defender's defenders.

I took from that that they are **** at the back if you have the ball.
 
The demise of gaurdiola begins , but he only has one year j look left on his contract so I dare say he won’t be signing another

Unbelievable the amount of money floating about: we worry about 2-3 Million for Chooooba! Thats probably the cost of peps milk bill.
Good god.
 
That doesn't include 92mil on two keepers😕

It's frankly obscene. You imagine any managers who's spent nearly 500mil on keepers and defenders going to the board and saying 'I need more money for defenders'.

500mil.....you imagine what company's and charities could do with that? No wonder none football fans looking in hate the sport.

If I ever read about these clubs asking for a covid handout or financial help from the government I'll officially give up😕

You can't defend with the ball if you haven't got it.
Pep's plan A he implemented at Barca has been figures out by the majority of clubs now, let them pass it sideways 400,754 times then nick it, counter attack, shot on goal.
If the Man City defence plays like they did against Vardy and Barnes against say Liverpool, Liverpool would tear them to pieces.
