Chucky, thanks for the clarification here the post that started it all from Nil which was actually to you.?
“Agree with you on that Mr Chuckster.
John Stones for me is never the almost 50 or so million pound player Man City paid for. Danilo was bought for almost half and he’s a much more of an astute Defender.
Pep layers up with good players but his secret actually if anybody has not picked up on this already is that he has a large squad where he has used some individuals sparsely. Riyad for example only made 4 first team appearances and look how much he was sold for by Leicester.”
Nil just got his knickers in a bit of a twist we all do at times and Tugay pointed that out to him. All a bit of something and nothing really.
Now about this FFP.?

Nine, I’ve no idea where the 42 figure has come from. I’m led to believe Mahrez has made very little starts. I researched and found a stream of facts. To be perfectly frank, I really couldn’t care right now if I’m wrong. It’s childish and pointless.

Yep, that was the point and a good one too. I don’t know if anybody actually understands where I’m coming from. If not, there’s nothing I can do.
Nothing to do with any Boxers in knots.

Nil, the appearances are a total for all competitions from the link you provided.
But you’re right in the grand scheme of things it’s all something and nothing.
We all post the odd inaccuracy on here even me and I’m infallible.?

Nil, to be fair this is what you posted “Riyad for example only made 4 first team appearances and look how much he was sold for by Leicester.” Tugay merely pointed out that was inaccurate and Chucky has amplified on that.
You then posted in response to Tugay
“Don’t let a little thing like facts get in the way of your argument eh.”

27 Apps – 7 Goals”
But you’re right in the grand scheme of things none of it is important.

Thing is, Silly-Willy-Nilly, if you’re ever going to use a stat on here, you really do need to make sure it’s correct. You’ve been here long enough, you know what a bunch of mass-debaters we all are!!

Nine, that poster wasn’t civil in his reply and aggravated me. All because I put forward a comment to support Pep. I’ve had run-ins before with him from elsewhere and I really haven’t signed myself on here to go through all that again.
Given the recent events over the past week, it’d be nice for a change if we can make an effort a little bit and try and get along.

Totally agree Nil I have only been sympathetic which is why I was saying we all get our knickers in a twist at times. Me included!?

Pep confirmed yesterday that City can’t afford Griezmann.
Clearly that’s a nonsense given the wealth of City’s owner but it is a function of FFP which has now bitten and is now restricting City’s transfer spending with this season their net spend coming in at just under £7m.

Have a feeling Griezmann will demand Sanchez level wages wherever he goes and that can have a bad knock on effect with the other star players demanding parity. Perhaps that has influenced Pep?
Was going to make a slightly sarcastic comment regarding if we will get a sequel to his “Le Decision” video but after a quick google it appears it’s already made.

Haven’t seen him play that often, but I do wonder what the fuss is all about with Griezmann… don’t see it myself.

I tend to agree with Chucky Griezmann I’d a very good player imo but not yet a great player. Having said that I would have him at Chelsea.?
Barca are desperate to rebuild but for them to fall within FFP they will have to sell someone.
Griezmann’s salary is all part of the same FFP problem he’s reportedly taking a 4m Euro drop in annual salary to join Barca because he wants to win trophies. 17m Euros a year is the suggested salary which works out as a bit under £300k pw.
The Sanchez £500k pw was driven by what looked like a bargain fee at the time given he only had 6 months left on his contract it’s the same scenario as Ramsey going to Juve and getting £400k pw players can negotiate even greater wages when reduced fees/ no fees are involved.

9 are u a c$ty fan deep down. You hope they get recognition they deserve for winning a treble and now trying to make out they’re struggling due to FFP as they have only spent just under 7 mil haha. Yeah we should just forget the BILLION plus dollars they spent previously, the poor buggers must be really hurting & it’s not fair they or chelsea can’t just outspend everyone anymore. It’s taken a while but now other reasonably financial clubs are slowly making up ground, Liverpool have admittedly spent a fortune but are still playing catch up.
Rest easy though mate, I’m sure they’ll buy another couple of worldies and will struggle to another couple of titles haha._____________________________

Oz, come on let’s try and keep it objective and sensible.
I’ve been a Chelsea fan since my Dad took me to Stanford Bridge aged 10 and we stood on the West Bank terracing where the West Stand now stands and I’ve spent decades going backwards and forwards to Stamford Bridge every other week held season tickets for the best part of 25 years and followed Chelsea all over the country including to Anfield.
But I’m also a football fan and I’ve enjoyed the football that City have played this season as I have Liverpool’s too but nobody has done the domestic treble before if City do the treble it will be a well deserved achievement imo for what they have put into all 3 competitions this season and I say that purely as a football fan. But tbh when push comes to shove I don’t really care who wins the Cup as long as it’s an entertaining game!
The point I was making about what Pep said re Griezmann and City’s spend this season is that FFP is limiting City’s spending power now.
What’s gone before in terms of City’s expenditure can’t be changed now only what happens from here on in can be changed and there are real indications that FFP is doing that.
