Mancini sees his current squad during that time cannot be a top club unless new players under his favorities been added to the squad. James Milner, Yaya Toure, David Silva, recall Joe Hart from Birmingham after loan spell last season, Jerome Boateng, Kolarov, Mario Balotelli, Patrick Vieira, and Adam Johnson. These are the new players add to the squad. The question is how about the others great names that Mancini already have? In my opinion, assembling great players in one club is a good ones. Not good is when they only seat on the bench and not playing regular 1st team player.
Compared to Chelsea, they only buy the players which is fit the 1st team squad. Lets compare what Chelsea and Man City current squad players. (Not include reserve team)

By look at it, are these Man City players who seat on the bench will plays regularly with the great 1st 11 available? When will be it? These are the question will be ask among the pundit. In my opinion, these billionaire club seems like wanna kill the career of the footballers. If this continues, I believe and not surprise if the players played for the moderate club in moderate countries such as Croation league, Scottish league, Belgium league, Greek league, or Dutch league in order to get 1st team football.
Not like Chelsea, Ancellotti loves to rotate their players just like he did for AC Milan couple year back. But when you talk about Adebayor who did well at Arsenal, Santa Cruz at Blackburn or even Lescott at Everton, these are good and top class player. They deserve to be among 1st team football but it has been killed by........ MONEY.
