Don't blame him for going at all and can't blame them for wanting him. That being said, I hate citeh and I hate that this makes them even stronger. For all the talent they have, I rarely enjoy watching them play due to their constant tactical fouling and actively back whoever they're playing, aside from that lot up the road.

Agree. For them the money is no object so actually just preventing a rival from getting the best players is their objective. He will probably be on rotation with the other squad members and only play half their games.

He'll be a star player for them.

Yep, and obviously they're not the only ones who operate in this way but the way elite clubs operate just pushes me more and more to other sports. I watch so much football but I find less and less enjoyment in the big teams playing out draws because they can't afford to lose to one another.

We’ll pay a lot less than that to get Messi on board.

They are no different to the other clubs.

When United bought Pogba that was a world record transfer fee.

Chelsea paid a fee of what could end up at £90m for Havertz.

Liverpool paid world record fees for VVD and Allison at the time making them the world's most expensive players in their positions.

I did say they're not the only ones - all of the big clubs have been allowed to be too greedy for too long, and any club that found itself in a position to do so, would do the same. The system isn't sustainable, look at Barcelona - they'll get away with a lot of it because they always do but that situation should not be allowed to happen. Just really not keen on the way football works anymore, unfortunately nothing will change until the whole house of cards comes crashing down.

Aguero out, Grealish in for £100m is probably the worst transfer /shirt number swap in history.

Just a perfect storm of short sightedness and greed. When the system collapses this will be looked back on as absolutely ridiculous.

When the system collapses! When exactly will this be? People have been going on about this for years but it hasn’t happened and probably won’t for some time.

Grealish is a great player but they’re signing a player to fill a position where they’ve already got cover - they need a striker and surely the cash should have gone into replacing Aguero?

Massive inflation about to hit. Football is usually immune, but that's not guaranteed...
