That's what you're up against. A team with £50m squad players.

Let us not pretend that Utd do not have the same luxury, maybe not quite to the extent of City but not far off.
Read a stat a few weeks ago that Utd, City and Chelsea have spent over £2 billion combined in the last 5 years on incoming players, City over £700 mill and Utd and Chelsea( Chelsea have made an extraordinary amount back on sales, £400 mill if I recall) both over £600 mill. Hate the modern game, would be amusing if Spurs with their near negative net spend in that period win the league.
