Fairs Kyle Walker single handedly destroyed a fundamental aspect of Guardiola’s philosophy.
- Fergie broke the British transfer record 5 times btw (more than twice as much as any other Prem manager). These figures are misleading without accounting for inflation and football inflation. £30m spent on a player in 2024 is nothing like £30m in 2002.Money spent during managerial career: - 1 Guardiola: €2.04B - 2 Mourinho: €1.86B - 3 Ancelotti: €1.69B - 4 Allegri: €1.4B - 5 Simeone: €1.21B - 6 Pellegrini: €1.2B - 7 Tuchel: €1.19B - 8 Conte: €1.17B - 9 Pochettino: €1.15B - 10 Klopp: €1.13B . - 18 Sir Alex €789.95m
Readers added contextWhilst this is accurate in terms of exact spending, it doesn’t take into account inflation. Sky Sports did this same table in August 2023, and adjusted for inflation, Sir Alex Ferguson was the highest spending manager in Premier League history (£3.5 billion) skysports.com/amp/football/n… - City had twice as many league titles as Chelsea before Abramovich City’s historic average league position (6th) is higher than Chelsea’s (8th) City has taken part in 6 more top-flight seasons than Chelsea and 13 more seasons generally City was founded 25 years before Chelsea😳 “As a football club, Manchester City are actually fairly insignificant.” 🤷♂️ “In terms of history and heritage, Man City are not comparable to at least half a dozen clubs in this country.” Rory Jennings isn’t ranking #MCFC anywhere near the biggest clubs in world football.
00:00 - Goldbridge’s delusion is staggering ‘We didn’t buy that team’. Roy Keane and Andy Cole were BRITISH TRANSFER RECORDS Jaap Stam was the MOST EXPENSIVE DEFENDER in history🔴 “#MUFC’s treble was better. We did it first, we did it harder too…” ❌ “Man Utd didn’t buy that team. We had four homegrown players in the XI.” @MarkGoldbridge says even if Man City win the treble, Man Utd’s was better
00:00 - Erling Haaland was scoring 41 goals in 41 games for Dortmund at the age of 20 you innumerate melon.
- Ah yes, City have never used a high line under Guardiola in the Premier League.we are now deploying a high line in the PL. this league isn’t ready for what’s coming 😂😂
- Kevin De Bruyne is the greatest midfielder in Premier League history, and second only to Thierry Henry in terms of greatest ever. I don’t care. I said it.
- Goldbridge is obsessed with the idea that United’s success wasn’t due to wealth The myth that Fergie didn’t spend that much money at United is exactly that: a myth Here are 9 times Fergie made a record breaking transfer at Man United 🧵👇“Your house is on fire, and you’ve got a water pistol, everyone’s telling you to call a fire engine, and you say ‘No, they’re immoral, I don’t like them.’” 👨🚒 @markgoldbridge on Simon Jordan’s claims that #mufc fans are hypocrites for wanting Qatar in.
00:00 - Haaland has now scored as many goals for Norway as Mbappe and Rooney have for France and England respectively.
- Foden premier league hat trick from midfield? RW at Palace it is then.
- The good news is that if we beat Brugge, we’re guaranteed to qualify for the play offs due to PSG playing Stuttgart on the last day (barring Zagreb winning like 14-0). The bad news is that we’re probably not going to beat Brugge…
- Nico came on and in just 3 minutes broke up a dangerous attack, started a counter attack and got a Bournemouth player sent off. Love him.
