The FA Cup needs to die. There I said it.
I'm sure it won't be long until managers start putting their B teams out for the final.

Why do the pundits make it sound like City have achieved so much like it is a miracle. Their payroll is second to none in the world.

Their professionalism and will to win you is what you can’t ‘buy’. Can you imagine if Man U or Spurs won this and all the dancing and crap going on, nothing like that with City. They’re great pros.
Lol Wut? Guardiola would have gone to 2007 Man City. Give me a break.
The jealousy is amazing. You think any other manager could have come in and achieved what Pep has?
Are you a Man U supporter by any chance?
I am not disregarding Guardiola. I am talking about the team as a whole. Arsenal, Liverpool and Man Utd have earnt their wealth through success end of.
The team or the club?

Both Coutinho and Suarez had interest from other clubs but ultimately decided on Liverpool, to think their history and already being a established top club had nothing to do with that would be idiotic. This is what I mean, do you think Southampton had a chance of signing Coutinho when Liverpool came knocking? Of course not. The only other option is to offer an amount the club and player can't refuse.Established clubs will have an advantage because they are a bigger club however Liverpool have been able to sign the players they have because of the sales of Coutinho (cost 14 mil) and the likes of Suarez who was around 26 if I remember rightly.
Liverpool have proven you don't always have to sign established worldies.

Besides, Suarez was arguably already a top player scoring 81 goals in 110 games for Ajax and a good, if undisciplined showing at the world cup. Sure he wasn't proven in any of the top leagues but more than worth a gamble for the price they paid.
Tbf he counters his own argument by bringing up Spurs, a team on near enough 0 spend net and are in a CL final + good effort in the league until injuries
Also ignores the likes of Atleti. It’s a different level of spending that no one is near and in reality the source of it is the worst part.
FFP being ***** is obvious true though
Edit: lol the idea that Coutinho was highly sought after when Liverpool got him, he started well at Inter but struggled there and with some loan periods iirc
