        Chucky, given Spurs last won the League title in 1961, last won the FA Cup in 1991 and last won a European trophy in 1984 Spurs wouldn’t even have been considered a mid level club let alone an up and coming Club.

        Chelsea being CL QTR Finalists in 2000 was 10 years before Spurs had even qualified for the CL in 2010.

        You would give your right arm now for what Chelsea won between 1997 and 2000.

        I think that’s what makes you so bitter and twisted!😊

          Chucky, you shouldn’t let your bias against Chelsea distort the facts.

          3P was right!

            Given Bournemouth’s statement it seems like there might have been a falling out between Scott Parker and the Board.

              Never has Manager’s being judged by results been more ably demonstrated than by the sacking of Scott Parker after just 4 games on the back of 3 heavy consecutive defeats.

                Brian. I’ve got nothing against City in fact the reverse I enjoy the football City play and always try to watch them in their live games on TV and I have a high regard for the City posters on here too even Adlab (although he can be testing at times) and especially you.😊

                My original post was in response to Adlab’s post criticising United I don’t think Chelsea fans and City fans are in a position to question anyone elses spending.

                Adlab comes over with such posts as a Poacher turned Gamekeeper with his regular criticism of other Clubs transfer expenditure which is unhelpful and is always likely to create a string of responses on here. Peace and Love 9’s

                  “I still fancy chelsea for top 4.” Sean I would too if Chelsea had a striker.😊

                    Brian. “However, looking at the current squad and the U 21/18s coming though, future looks bright…We may get 3rd spot this year and get to the Semi in CL, Hopefully win the FA Cup because I love it. All good fun”

                    Tell you what Brian if City only finish 3rd I will run around Stamford Bridge naked.πŸ˜‚

                      Brian, the 5 year time span was the one available and analysed and I would suggest the most relevant if we were to go back 20 years that would be before City were owned by sovereign state with unlimited spending power.

                      By the way my post was in response to your fellow City fan digging out United.

                      Here’s a quote from Pep below following Lampard’s sacking he’s always been consistent with his views re results although Pep could take a bad run of results as he’s got so much credit in the Bank.

                      “Young and old managers, here you have to win,” Guardiola said. “When the people talk about projects and ideas, they don’t exist. You have to win; if not, you will be sacked.”

                        Brian, even Pep would struggle if the results were poor and he’s said that himself. I only saw a little bit of the U 21 game and I thought City looked the better team.

                          Adlab, United are rebuilding, the City squad is so strong City are just topping up.

                          City have still spent more than United over the last 5 years 505m by City v 378m by United.

                          I think United will have more than enough to fund the lights going forwards question is will we.😊

                            Brian, Manager are judged on results if the results are poor they won’t last long certainly not 5 years.

                            I think Gerrard will be given more time but the Villa fans are restless which puts pressure on the owners to find a solution.

                            Gerrard needs some results going in his favour.

                              I think Spurs and Arsenal look sound bets for a top 4 place this season. City and Liverpool still look the most likely bets for the title though.

                                  No Zaha today for Palace should result in a comfortable City win.

                                    “He’s a good player. Before he got the injury, he was outstanding… I can understand [paying Β£80million] because they’re buying potential,” Darren Bent

                                    Not just Lineker Brian but he has to sign first and then the proof of the pudding will be in the eating.😊

                                      Gary Lineker believes Chelsea are on the verge of signing β€˜the most prodigiously talented young central defender in the world’ after agreeing a Β£75million deal with Leicester City for Wesley Fofana.

                                      Let’s hope Lineker is right.😊

                                        Might be more of a test for Martinez today against Che Adams particularly in the air.

                                          “The situation is being milked quite frankly. Leicester don’t need the money. Believe they themselves have plenty but can’t attract better players.”

                                          Nil, Seemingly Leicester aren’t cash rich currently they’ve bought no one to date with less than a week of the window to go despite Rodgers desire to strengthen the squad and the owners whose business is Duty Free have had to cope with reduced Duty Free sales over the last couple of years because of COVID which has led to less people flying and a decline in Duty Free sales.

                                          If the Fofana sale goes through hopefully Rodgers will be allocated funds to strengthen the squad albeit time is running out.

                                            Nil, turn the clock back to when Liverpool signed Van Dijk for Β£75m and exactly the same thing was being said then as you’re saying now about Fofana Β£75m was not the price Liverpool wanted to pay but they had to pay that to get him and the same applies to Fofana at allegedly Β£70m plus Β£10m in add on’s which is seemingly now the agreed price.

                                            Both prices were/are crazy but it’s the selling Club that sets the price and given the impact Van Dijk has had on Liverpool it was money well spent hopefully if the Fofana transfer goes ahead the same can be said!😊
