It's never going to happen - especially to a 'big' team.

They are not a "big" team, so then there is a better chance

Had they bought us at the time they bought City then they wouldn't have needed to spend much.

Aguero, Silva and maybe one or two others to play alongside Torres, Alonso, Gerrard, Mascherano would've done us I reckon.

Oh and they would've had to spend a couple of bob on a new stadium.

Historically maybe, their Premier League win, big name players and ambitious plans make them a big club.

What makes us a big club? because it's surely not all our recent success

Manchester City poised to bring in former Barcelona deal-maker.

October 26, 2012

Manchester City have lined up a deal to bring former Barcelona wheeler and dealer Txiki Begiristain to the club next week, according to reports from Spain.

Catalunya Radio suggests the man who oversaw the development of Barca’s academy, and helped to establish the club as the best in Europe, will become City’s sporting director next week.

Begiristain, himself a former Barcelona and Spain star, was a Nou Camp ally of current City chief executive Ferran Soriano, and his appointment would call into question Brian Marwood’s future with the Blues.

One Spanish newspaper has suggested the move is just part of an influx of ex-Barcelona officials, with marketing experts Esteve Calzada and Marc Boixassa already working for City.

It even speculates that Soriano is plotting to bring in ex-Barcelona coach Pep Guardiola this summer, in place of Roberto Mancini.

Txiki Begiristain. What could've been eh.

Man City are really sharpening themselves up in terms of executive and footballing appointments.

My thoughts exactly.

[Vermilion]

Just hearing the appointment has been confirmed, Txiki Begiristain has replaced Marwood.

[Phoenix07]

On the BBC now.

Could've been perfect in a sporting director role for us, ensuring continuity between the Academy and the First Team, on top of his contacts and experience in one of the top footballing institutions.

Wonder if Pep Segura will move to City as well

[RichC]

I can see Pep coming out of retirement and giving managing City a go from next season.
