Even though I am a United fan, it is interesting to see where this project could go. I honestly don't think money can win you the premier league but don't be surprised if they break into the top four or bite everton or spurs for 5th place.
Also I think Tevez is a damn traitor. I know Utd wern't treating him well, but he only went to City for the money thats it. He claimed his family is all settled in Manchester and he wants to win trophies but how is that when he can't even speak friking english after playing i nEngland for almost 4 years? Settled in Manchester my ass. He wasn't even a good player to be honest. A player that scores 15 goals and best skill is his stamina isnt worth 25 million pounds. Look at all teh strikers city have anyway, Santa Cruz, Benjani, Evans, Boijnov, Robinho, Bellamy and Adebayor probably.

Tevez is an overatted money grabber, scored only 5 goals all season in the league, so badly treated that he played 29 of 38 games, more than Ryan Giggs who won the Player of the Season award. he also lied about wanting to stay, he was offered a contract by United atleast once, and said no.
he wont get first team football at City either, as you said, they have stupid amount of strikers. City probably will be top 8, but wont break into the top 4, there defence and midfield are too weak and have too little depth imo.
as a United fan i think weve done better bussiness than them this summer, Valencia is a top young winger with pace to replace Ronaldo, Owen is a free gamble who imo will score the goals to make up for Ronaldo's departure, and Obertan is a good prospect for the future.

Tevez is a far better player than Berbatov and he has a lot more to his game than just scoring goals. Also im sure that he will get in the Manchester city team. Him and Adebayor are a scary prospect.
To the OP. I think they will get a 5th place finish. I dont think they will be able to have consitant performances throughout the season.
1st either Chelsea/Liverpool/Manchester UTD
4th Arsenal or Manchester City
6th Tottenham/Aston Villa
7th Everton
Thats my take on it anyway, the quality of the top 3 far surpaces that of the rest of the pack. If Adebayor goes i say Arsenal will fall from the best teams.
Manchester UTD despite losing Ronaldo will still be very strong as ever. Same goes for Liv and Chel
