tomav84 Posted August 26, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted August 26, 2021 i just don't think he's what they need. they need a proper poacher. i mean, any half decent striker could get 20 goals in a city shirt mad that they wasted all that time on kane and could've just gotten ings who will probably score just as many as he would've Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mantis Posted August 26, 2021 Share Posted August 26, 2021 Man City don't need Ronaldo but it's quite clear that marketing and "brand" nonsense is fundamentally what drives that club rather than anything purely football-related. Long-term I think that'll come back to bite them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wainy316 Posted August 26, 2021 Share Posted August 26, 2021 If they hadn't gone all in on Grealish, might we have been seeing Messi and Ronaldo playing together? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you stop thinking of it as a football club and start thinking of it as a marketing vehicle for the nation of Abu Dhabi, everything makes sense. And having worked very closely with the club right after the takeover, that's exactly what they are. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
