On a "Net Spend" scale technically Pep is right

From 2017 to 2024 (since Peps time at the club) he has a lower netspend than Arsenal

With Citys netspend over the period coming to:
- £497m (Spend of £1.37bn)

While Arsenals comes to:
- £690m (spend of £1.05bn)
Image Since Artetas been at the club though from 2020/21 onwards it looks even better:

With City having a £87m netspend to Arsenals £465m

This is due to Citys exceptional selling over the period. Image
