David Bernstein on Manchester City spending

David Bernstein, who ran Manchester City between 1998 and 2003, is calling out the club's £440M summer spend. He says this timing is especially messy with the 115-charge case still hanging over everything. The unresolved legal trouble combined with that level of spending makes a mockery of the sport in his view. It feels like a strange moment to be pouring money in while the league is still sorting through the accusations.
