If I was saying Arsenal should win the league after 3 years of spending, yes it would be but I have not once ever claimed this.
Teams outspending City in recent years however is absolutely facts and there is nothing wrong with it, to compete this is what they should be doing. There are no extra points for spending less or whatever it is you guys are desperately fishing for.
For me City or Pep using the point about spending is disingenuous.
Don’t mean to jump in mid convo, but from my point of view if you’ve spent £1billion on getting your squad to a level to compete, and then every year after that you only need to top it up with £100M-150M windows every summer it’s disingenuous to say “well XYZ have spent more than us recently”.
Whilst it’s true, teams are having to spend more to catch up. On top of that inflation is a thing, what City spent to get to a level to compete every year would cost you around 2 billion now.
