But then they'll run the risk of having top players just sitting on the bench week-in and week-out. As has already been said, City already have / had a decent midfield, so at least one of them's going to missing out.
What sticks in the throat is the whole 'I want Champions League football' thing - I don't think anyone would have blamed him if he'd gone to Liverpool this year (assuming that they came back in for him), but he's gone to a club who haven't even got Europe next season. It's all well and good saying that City should push on next year, but there's no guarantee.
