Save money and upgrade? Manchester City s three pragmatic contracts have been supported by financial experts

Wilz's soap opera transfer to Manchester City, bang! It came to an abrupt end!

When authoritative media confirmed that Blue Moon withdrew from the battle with a value of up to 150 million euros, many fans said they "can't understand". The doubts have not yet dispersed, and the club officially announced three signings: 70 million euros were introduced to AC Milan midfielder Reindes, 40 million euros signed Lyon's front midfielder Cherki, and 40 million euros introduced Wolves left-back Ait Nuri. The total price of the three transactions was exactly 150 million euros. This wave of operations instantly ignited the discussion, "What is Guardiola's abacus?"

Recalling the winter window, the midfield vacancy after Gundogan left the team was vacant, and it was ultimately a temporary solution to support it with Marmush, Husanov and others.

The summer window opens, and the outside world generally predicts that Manchester City will take all the bets to win Leverkusen's core Wiltz. However, the wind direction suddenly changed, and the Blue Moon changed from a leader to a bystander. Well-known reporter Romano confirmed the shift in Manchester City's strategy. His transfer team operated efficiently, quickly finalized three powerful new players, and completed the reallocation after withdrawing Werz's funds. Is this money worth it? It has become a hot topic for fans after dinner. The logic on the

tactical board is gradually becoming clear.

Sky Sports analysis guest Carragher pointed out: "Look at Manchester City's backbone - Gwadior, Rodri, and Haaland are all giants with strength and technology. Former Bayern youth training director Hermann Grande also publicly interpreted: "Wilz is the initiator of the top offensive, but Manchester City now needs a 'lubricant' that can work finely around the giants. "Cherki became the core of Lyon's organization with superb dribbling last season, and is the representative of the technical attacker. Reindez showed his top running coverage in Milan, which is a midfield perpetual motion machine. Aite Nuri contributed sharp assists on the Wolves (7 assists in the Premier League), which also provides the possibility for Guardiola to restart the three-back system.

Smart operational strategy is a sign of Manchester City.

Football finance expert Kieran Maguire reiterated in his personal column: "In the past six seasons, Manchester City's net transfer investment has only ranked sixth in the Premier League (data source: Swiss Ramble independent report). Sports directors Begiristan and Soriano teams always put the Fiscal Fairness Act (FFP) at the heart of decision-making. "The investment risk of a single superstar is huge. Spreading resources to lock in three players who are in their age and adapting to the system is a more stable strategy. The Guardian team reporter Jamie Jackson observed: "Guardiola's ability to turn stones into gold is his confidence. Looking at the successful cases of B seats (introduced by 43.5 million euros) and Aker (introduced by 45 million euros), the new players have considerable appreciation potential. ”

The fans always have diverse voices.

The voices regretted: "It's a pity for Wiltz to be a talented monster! ”. Another party is pragmatic: “The technical stream midfield combination of Cherki + Reindes may be more suitable for partnering with Rodri! "Some people also joked: "Guardiola's 'scratch' is drawing again, waiting for the appreciation! "Sports lawyer Daniel Gester reminded market norms: "FFP cases (such as Manchester City CAS winning case in 2020) show that diversifying investment is a mature path to avoid risks. The high loyalty bonus paid by Paris Saint-Germain for Rumbappe also triggered compliance discussions (not officially punished), and the steady operation is worthy of recognition. ”

The sunset shines on the training ground of the Etihad base, and the new players are actively integrating into the team.

Cherki and Rodri are practicing passing seriously. There may be pains of running-in in the journey of the new season, but Guardiola's blueprint for building the team is clearly visible - it is not to pile up the most expensive stars, but to find the most suitable puzzle and continue to build a competitive whole within the framework of the rules. This persistence in the system and precise operational wisdom may be the foundation for the long-lasting Blue Moon. Who do you think these three new players are most likely to play in Manchester City?
