    @Ryan they are impressive and the owners were involved a bit in similar process of recruitment in the states weren't they ? That's why they will struggle with the Sarah decision because it will go against their principles but they will know how important he is ?

    Best of the best are Brentford and Brighton of course ! Albeit Brighton splashed out this summer. Back in the day Swansea had brilliant principles - a philosophy to their recruitment (promising players from a lower level) and they built gradually until they reached the Premier League - they kept the principles for a couple of years then sold out abandoned the things that made them great and down they went - I love looking into this stuff 😊

    I'm reading "How to win the Premier League" It's about Liverpool so I am biased that its good but from a purely stats / trading / betting view its bloody brilliant, talks about how Liverpool found players and also a bit about stats modelling that the owners of both Brighton and Brentford have used to build their wealth and then taken that into the teams they bought.

    Is a bit all over the shop, but is very very good for traders and betting people.

    @Mark-Maguire Ahahah its like you've watched from the sidelines waiting for this moment πŸ˜‰

    I think Pep is a genius, 100%. My point with him is he will 100% improve players, and make them unreal - thats what I mean about the Ferrari he'll get it rocking but he needs money to be able to do it. He will buy the best talent and make them better.

    One thing I dont think he could do would be mould a squad on a budget, would love to be proved wrong.

    @Mark-Maguire I agree. I’m not a city fan either but Guardiola needs a bit more respect than just saying it’s all about the money.

    Liverpool and Klopp may have been more selective but they still spent vast fortunes on most of the key pillars of their team.

    His influence on the league is ridiculous as well. Virtually every team tries to play out from the back now largely because of him. And a number of the next wave of highly regarded managers seem to be connected with him in some way as well (Arteta, Maresca, Alonso)

    @Ryan typical that I wait months to post on here for something I can argue with you about πŸ˜†

    Re Pep I think cheque book manager is too simplistic - my measure of a manager has always been how do they improve players - City spent a fortune but prior to the likes of Grealish at 100m they tended to buy players for 50 to 60 where other teams (United in particular) were paying double for worse..

    My natural position is to hate City .. Shiteh as we Stockport fans call them but if you look at how he's improved players over the years .. and the work ethic he's established then you can only admire it .. De Bryne, Foden, Stones, Mahrez, Silva x 2 , etc etc look at their development under Pep .. in the same way as you can immediately say Slot is decent when you look at the difference in Gravenberg..

    I think the problem at City now are down to the fact that Pep and his Mate (director of football)probably planned to leave this season and let the age of the squad drift - and brought in short term fixes like Haaland ... incredible record but when your backs against the wall how much does he work for the team ? Pep was close to taking England - changed his mind and now has to buy into the whole re build thing - but to be fair he's changed football in England and deserves some credit?
