I think he's taken them to a new level. And the PL too. Liverpool have had 2 near-faultless seasons and didn't win the league.

Yep it can't be all money or all manager, you need both. A bit of financial misconduct also helps.

It has to be about the management, Chelsea and Utd have on many occasions surpassed city's spending and came up short..

It's a combo of the best manager about, financial clout, and recruitment...city haven't skipped a beat after replacing legends like Kompany, Fernandinho, Silva, Aguero, etc

It's whole lot easier to slot a good/great player into an already great team core.  If you can manage to also replace older players with younger players into that team/squad, you can keep it going for a while (Liverpool late 70s to late 80s, Man U early 90s to 10s, City now).

A lot of that great Utd team were of a similar age (they were all part of the "win nothing with kids" team).  Once they all retire, you're left with a bunch of bit parts and you're looking to rebuild the core.  That's the hard part.  And that's where teams that won a lot of trophies on the bounce fall back.

So it's not about City's money (as we are in agreement) Chelsea plus utd have spent more and the likes of Liverpool's and city are better because of their appointments

that settled, I'm bored of City winning but it's not down to over spending
