More than half of the 15 most expensive all-time buys by English clubs have been by Man City (8/15), whatever Bernardo Silva cost.
Aguero pound for pound the best value here?
With the benefit of hindsight, how bad a buy does Andy Carroll look at £35 milly?
Somewhat offset by the purchase of Suarez for ~£20M during the same window I'd say.

Luckily they never really wanted him, and he's not actually that good, plus he wouldn't fit in a Maureen team, and if he picked City over united then united's interest can't have been firm cos no footballer on this planet chooses to play for little City over the theatre of dreams, right?
Welcome to Manchester, Silva.

jamesrobson at the MEN reports
Guardiola has been given a £300m transfer budget to bring in six major signings this summer
Bernardo Silva is the start of a major overhaul. City still want Alexis Sanchez and maintain desire to keep hold of Aguero

I always quite fancied Jennifer Anniston.

Unlucky for you, cos she has her eyes on Wenger. She likes the idea of fortnightly long weekend trips to Gent, Krasnodar and Astana.

Looks like Alves will be confirmed tomorrow. Reading a deal with his agent has been agreed and he'll move to City on a 2 year contract, free transfer.
Excellent bit of business....hope I haven't bokked it though!
With strong rumours still circulating around Sanchez (hi Ralph), Walker, Mendy and Bertrand, we could have one hell of a squad next season. Exciting times.

Spend it on extra special bubble wrap for Kompany, you look a different team with him fit and playing.

Completely agree. Keeping Vinny fit has to be a priority this coming season. The defence looks so much more settled and composed with him at the back, and whoever partners him immediately looks better.
He played 10 ish consecutive games in the run in, so fingers crossed the worst is behind him, but we've been in this position before only to have him break down again. Vinny will be desperate to play so fitness permitting I'd use him in most of the league games, all the CL games but rest him for the domestic cups.
There is talk of us getting another centre half in, I'm not sure that's needed but that is going on the assumption we can get 25/30 games out of him this season. We have others who can fill in there at the back (Fernandinho, Kolarov)

Still the same names as main targets and hopefully the official announcements to start shortly, Sanchez excepted which will no doubt drag-on. Then potentially others depending on movements out etc.
Did you get a good seat with your value gold?

Confed cup and players going on holiday (the cheek of it) looks like its delaying things. Think some transfers are only a matter of time (Mendy) whereas others hang in the balance somewhat (Bertrand, Sanchez). We're in a sweet spot with Sanchez, Arsenal are effectively in a no win situation with him as its patently obvious he isn't gonna sign a new contract.
Yeah looks like I struck gold (no pun) with my seat; CB3, block 324 so the block between half way line and penalty area. Great, expansive view which I much prefer over being pitchside like I was last season. When you have Pep in charge, you need to see as much of the pitch as possible!
£299 to watch the football we dish up is an absolute joke. Could you imagine paying double or treble that to watch the dirge that Maureen orchestrates over in Salford?

That seem remarkably cheap.
How many games does it include?

All home league games, so 19.
My calculator informs me it works out at £15.73 a game, which is incred value anyway but even more incred value given the players we have and the football we play.
Ideal for me as work scheduling/holidays mean making all 19 home games is a stretch too far, but even just attending 12 games equates to £25 per game (think I got to 13/14 last season from memory). When you think some match day tickets for the big games at Eastlands (Chelsea, Arsenal, Spurs, Liverpool etc) can cost up to £60...... well you do the maths
If I know I can't attend a game then I either pass it on to a mate, or stick it on the 'City exchange' where if someone buys it, you then get the £££ value back as credit on the following years renewal.

That seems to be stunning value, especially considering the talent in that squad.
What would a similar ticket cost at, say;
Man Utd
Arsenal
Stoke City
