Delicate. Intricate. Profligate. Manchester City's candy-cane tower has come crumbling down.
Forget City's Soufflé-style of calculated luxury: we've entered Jürgen's Black Forest Gateau of Mayhem.
High-class pomp has been decimated by working-class passion as the Moneyball-marauding FSG out-bought City's billions in all areas.
