I think that City have managed to get to a settled position and then they are constantly having to maintain that level, whereas PSG have never really got a good solid base and they keep splurging in different directions to somehow arrive at it. I dunno if City had a bit of luck there or have had more patience with managers or perhaps Pep is just better.City and PSG feel like examples of how and how not to pour tons of cash into a football club. One spends big, but actually seems to have some sort of strategy and organisation, the other just throws money around.
He's a great player of course but I feel that he never quite produces his top level consistently enough to be as good as he should be and to justify the money spent on him.Pogba is on a free in the summer isn't he, he's going to be linked with every big club most likely. I'd assume he goes to PSG to replace Mbappe as the French star in the side
Pep's one of the best, but City also went out of their way to plan for him specifically. They went and hired a bunch of the higher ups from his time at Barca and had the whole thing set up for him when he got there. It sounds as though they organised the club around him the way you might organise a team around a player.I think that City have managed to get to a settled position and then they are constantly having to maintain that level, whereas PSG have never really got a good solid base and they keep splurging in different directions to somehow arrive at it.

Yes absolutely. A solid foundation. Though he needs to win the CL to be considered truly successful there... and it is conceivable that PSG could do that first. But for me it feels as though PSG will need a large slice of luck to do that whereas if City win it they will do so by simply being the best team.Pep's one of the best, but City also went out of their way to plan for him specifically.

Yeah, although I wouldn't hold it against him if he didn't. He's been a success there with or without it and it's a tough one to win.Yes absolutely. A solid foundation. Though he needs to win the CL to be considered truly successful there...
It just didn't happen. The squad had lots of injury problems, he got some things wrong tactically and the Spanish teams were still on top of the world.What happened at Bayern? Why did he move on so quickly? The managers before and after him both won the CL I think.
