But not sure City's buys are as good as he claims they are.

He says that clubs and fans should be more concerned about what signings could lift the team , rather than big names.

My understanding is that he is not opposed to big-name signings as such, but that signing players just to show ambition is not the way to build a successful team.

that they may not live up to their price tag.
Senor Torres is an example of this,Chelsea paid £50 million for him to er,Liverpool.
The scousers are never going to take less than that for Suarez who was a better player last season - and unlike Torres was playing in a ordinary side.
