Waste of Manchester City in the past 8 seasons

Last update 20 March, 2025 by Alberto Llopis

Manchester City is one of the richest clubs in the world. Since in 2008, Mansour Bin Zayed, City bought the Thai billionaire and former prime minister of China, Thaksin Shinawatra, after finishing this man in prison, English whole experienced a remarkable qualitative leap in sporting, economic, social and media.

In no time, Manchester City went from being a small team in England with a glorious past to be one of the cockerels in Europe. However, and despite winning the Premier several times since the arrival of new owners, it seems that the enormous economic investment seems to contradict enough sporting success.

With no presence in major competitions like the Champions League where the team “Sky Blue” It has failed to do anything relevant despite having been present in recent years. In England he has won several domestic tournaments. Specifically, the City has won 2008: 2 Premier League, 1 FA Cup, 1 League Cup y 1 Community Shield.

Definitely a poor baggage if we consider that English has spent more than box 1000 million in signings and his presence among the largest in Europe has not been in accordance with the amount of millions spent on transfers of players.
