Because the clubs which have far more money will be able to afford any one of a number of quality players and probably the quality player we want is only their second or third choice.But how do you hold out for quality?
The quality players will almost certainly be in demand with clubs which have far more money than we have. They can pick and choose. Are they waiting for City to make a bid for them?
The answer has to be using the loan system, but there is no guarantee of quality in that.
If they get their first choice it means we're closer to signing the quality player we want, who might then have to lower their wage demand. MT has said all this year on year.
